kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: very nice. hi, everybody, welcome. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. i thinkkou probablying if the that out. thanks for watching. thanks for coming. you're here on a good night. channing tatum is here with us. [ cheers and applause ] hey, now. now youu scared him away, now he's not going to come. also tonight from "american crime," regina king. music from kopecky -- [ cheers and applause ] then we will delve into the supernatural. guillermo and i speak to visitors from beyond with teresa caputo, the long island medium.

what she does is talks to dead people, right, guillermo? >> guillermo: yeah. >> jimmy: you were kind of freaked out by the whole thin >> guillermo: yeah, i was stomach. >> jimmy: you d d't want to get those, if they get into your stomach they're in a lot of trouble. also, you know, there's a lot going on in new hampshire right now. after the caucus in iowa, the candidates who had no chance to win are finally starting to rereize that and drop out. rick santorum announced he's suspending his campaign after he finished 11 in this iowa. rand paul is suspending his campaign after finishing fifth. i like that theyy call it suspending. as if their campaigns got caught having sex under the bleachers and will be back in a couple of weeks. rand paul deserves a lot of credit. he said time and time again he believes in smaller government. now that he's out of the race the government is indeed one person smaller. that's called practicing what you preaea. jeb bubu finished sixth behind rand paul.

but jeb bush is still running. he doesn't know what to do. you know, if he loses he can't go home because his father and brother will laugh at him. so he's just got to stay -- i guess he's hoping some of the people who supported the candidates who are dropping out will get on board with him. but i tell you something, i don't know if these ads are going to work. >> rand paul has ended his campaign. >> today i will suspend my campaign for the presidency. >> but his supporters are not forgotten. jejebush. jeb's still running. and he desperately needs your vote. if we join forces, who knows, we might just make it to fourth place! you can't stand with rand but you can ebb with jeb. paid for by mistake. >> jimmy: that happens. does happen. [ cheers and applause ] jeb bush needs all the help he can get.

harrow in millford, new hampshire, their fresh blueberry muffins look too good to pass up. behold the most boring photograph ever posted to social media. jeb bush ordering a muffin. he got a little wild. he went t th blueberry instead of his usual bran, hand it to him for that. jeb held a town hall event in hanover, new hampshire, where god bless him he tried so hard to get the crowd fired up. >> i will be a commander in chief that will have the back of the military. i won't trash talk. i won't be a divider in chief or an agitator in chief. i won't be out there blow-hardidi, talking a big game without backing it up. i think the next president needs to be a lot quieter but send a signal we're prepared to act in the national security interests of this country, to get back in the business of creatinina more peaceful world. please clap. [ laughter ]

i don't know. honestly that is one of the saddest things i've ever seen. it's like peter pan tryryg to save t tkerbell, yououknow? please clap, someone give that man a hug! meanwhile, hillary clinton is trying to position herself as the underdog in new hampshire, which is funny considering the fact that she's running against mr. magoo. vermont senator bernie sanders hampshire. i don't know why we just found out about this but before he was senator, in1999, berninisanders peared in a low-budget movie. it's called "my ex-girlfriend's wedding reception." this is a real movie starring debbie gibson. bernie played the rabbi. >> teteing,testing. one, two, three. can you all hear me? my name is rabbi manny shevitz. >> jimmy: very clever. but wait, there's more. >> there's always tomorrow.

it could be worse. now let's just thank god you have your arms, you have your legs, let's eat! la chaim! >> jimmy: how is it possible he was already 75 years old in 1999? [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: it's amazing. he hasn't aged. ted cruz, of course, wasas the big winner in iowa. cruz beat donald trump despite the fact that all the polls had trump winning the thing. at first trump was gracious. he said he was happy to ha done so well. but i guess he's been givinin that some more thought because this is what he posted to twitter today. a whole bunch of tweets. the state of iowa should disqualify trurs from the most recent election on the basis he cheated, a total frfrd. next one, basas onn the fraud committed by senator ted cruz either a new election should take place or cruz results nullified. next one, cruz didn't win iowa, he stole it, thth is why all the polls were so wrong and why he

bad! sometimes bad means good. not in this case. in this case it meant bad. i guess trump w wts a new iowa caucus. but does anyone else get the feeling this election is going to end inned 2019? end in 2019? in spite of a a this donald trump is reportedly on the list of nominees for the nobel peace prize. which is -- i say it's about time we honor the man who settled the great gary busey/meatloaf conflict of 2012. this is the nobel peace prize. donald trump is so committed to peace, he's got one on his head, folks. [ laughter ] [ drumroll ] >> jimmy: apparently an american who's a legitimate nominator submit adler that nominated donald trump, which puts him alongside many luminaries includinin pope francis, which means this person could potentially win the nobel prize for peace. >> throw him the hell out of here.

get him out. come on. security, move faster. we need security that moves fast. come on, move faster. yeah you can get him the hell out, go ahead. get him out. get him out of here, please. boom, get him out. t out of here, please, get him out. get him out of here. get him out of here! get out! out, out, out! get out of here. don't give them their coat. no coats. yoyoknow, it's amazing.. i mention food stamps and that guy who's seriously overweight went crazy. he went crazy. >> jimmy: he's practicing for when he starts throwinin people out of the country. [ applause ] when we come back from the break we have something very special. guillermo and i sat down with the long island medium to speak to those who have gone to the great beyond. don't go die on n , we'll be right back.
