i'm dan ashley. >> i'm ama daetz. for all of us, thanks for being >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live"! tonight -- beastie boys mike d & ad-rock. from "queer eye" jonathan van ness. "this year in unnecessary censorship." and music from mitski. and now, goodness gracious, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: very nice. welcome. thank you very much. welcome. happy holidays. very kind. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the show. thank you for watching. thanks to all of you for coming. it's the most wonderful time of the year. as we prepare to go into hibernation, this is our last

new show before christmas. so on behalf of all of us here, we wish you and your families a merry one. thank you for watching our show. even if you're watching from a bar at the airport right now. today is the heaviest travel day of the year. especially in new york and l.a. and here in l.a., every year on the local news we have a tradition in l.a. every year we see this. [ laughter ] this is gridlock porn is what this is. thousands of cars bumper to bumper going each way. we like to watch it because it means we're not in it. [ laughter ] it's weirdly kind of festive, looks like a candy cane. who says l.a. is a godless place? we even decorate the 405 here. [ laughter ] i came up with an idea, bring that in here. i had an idea. remember when you used to get christmas carolers in the neighborhood? doesn't really happen anymore. i have something i think could be a new holiday tradition. we call it the alexa christmas choir. okay? watch this. you have to be quiet at the beginning. alexa, sing "jingle bells."

♪ oh jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way ♪ ♪ oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh ♪ >> alexa, stop. ♪ jingle bells jingle bells alexa, stop! ♪ a one-horse open sleigh >> jimmy: alexa, stop! she won't stop. we have kinks to work out but you get the idea. it's nice. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: guillermo. >> guillermo: yeah? >> jimmy: bring that to the ocean and dump it in. >> guillermo: i will for sure. >> jimmy: spending time with family around the holidays is great. but it can be stressful too. you know how they say you can't go home again? unfortunately it's not true, you can. at christmas we do. so we asked some of the people who work here at our show to share the one thing they dread most about heading home for the holidays and this is what they had to say. >> the thing i dread most about going home for the holidays is that even though i'm an adult and i live with my boyfriend, i

still have to ask permission for him to come over to my parents' house, and there has to be an adult at all times. at all times. >> the thing i'm dreading most about going home for the holidays is my parents have only one television. and they hog it and they only watch british law dramas. >> what i'm dreading about the holidays, guy back home to visit my cousin ricky and his wife judy, and they are very passionate lovemakers. i was there with my small children a couple of years ago. upstairs we heard bam bam bam bam bam coming from the room. my youngest says, what is that? i said, it's santa claus, he must be stuck in the chimney. bam bam bam! i want to see santa claus! i want to see santa claus! i had to stop him. eventually it stopped and i told him, i guess santa's not stuck in the chimney anymore. we're staying at a hotel this year. love you guys, happy holidays! >> my aunts ask me if i'm dating somebody. it's usually within five minutes of me being there. i'm doing a lot more things with my life than dating people.

so it's fun. >> travel. sitting in traffic for hours and hours just to get to someplace that you don't really want to go to, to spend time with people you don't really want to see. my ideal holiday would be not going anywhere and spending it alone. happy holidays. >> okay, so i have to spend $2,500 to fly my family to new york, $150 on baggage fees, $200 for car service. i'm going to stay in the room i grew up in which pretty much has a twin bed. my dad puts the heat up to about 80, 85. then my dad just told me, i'm not going to get a tree this year, it's too much of a hassle. so merry christmas, kids. >> 40 years ago my dad found a dead deermouse on the side of the highway. he skinned it, stuffed it, preserved it. he's been putting it on our christmas tree ever since. it's a weird tradition, dad. >> jimmy: that's not a creature was stirring, not even that mouse.

[ cheers and applause ] why is that in our office? guillermo. remind me when we get back to fire him, okay? >> guillermo: i will for sure. >> jimmy: very good. the president is heading home tomorrow. he's off to florida for 16 days. is the president allowed to go away for 16 days? that's like five scaramuccis worth of days. that's a lot of them. [ laughter ] tomorrow morning mike pence will be checked into a kennel and the president will jet to mar-a-lago. [ laughter ] his private club where trump will once again host his new year's eve party. two years ago he charged guests to this party $575 a head to come. last year it went up to $750 a head. this year he's charging $1,000 a head. $1,000 to ring in the new year with these two party animals. [ laughter ] that seems like fun. the whole trump family will be there. i wonder if he makes them pay to come to the party. [ laughter ] ivanka gets in free, everyone else, full price. it's a special holiday for the trumps this the year. this could be the last christmas don jr. will be able to spend

with his dad without being separated by a glass partition. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] beautiful holiday. trump is leaving washington, d.c. an absolute mess. he caused quite a thing today. he announced today he's not going to sign a resolution to fund the government. this is a deal that was crafted by republicans. they thought he was going to sign it. he surprised them and said, i'm not signing it unless i get the $5 billion for my border wall. if he doesn't get that money, which he won't, tomorrow night at midnight the government will shut down, hundreds of thousands of workers won't get paid. basically trump is taking paychecks from federal employees at christmas time to punish congress for not paying for a wall he swore 500 times mexico would be paying for. so feliz navidad, everyone. but here's the twist -- [ cheers and applause ] the twist is the president might not need mexico or congress to pay for the wall because there's very dopey people ready to pay

for it themselves. this trump supporter, brian colfad, started a gofundme campaign to raise $1 billion for the wall. he launched it on sunday. it's already up to almost $9 million. this is what people do with their disposable income when they don't have loans from college to pay off. [ laughter ] donating money for a wall that will never exist. it's like starting a college fund for harry potter. [ laughter ] it's a waste. a more useful thing to do with your money is feed it to a bird. [ laughter ] you do have to admire the sacrifice they're making. a lot of these people are dipping into their meth money for this. [ laughter ] on top of all that, trump's secretary of defense, general jim mattis, surprised everyone and resigned today. i guess the rumor is he disagreed with trump's decision to withdraw troops from syria, and as a result of that, he's now the 13th member of trump's cabinet to depart in 20 months. there are only 24 people in the cabinet, by the way. [ laughter ]

that includes the vice president, who can't leave. eventually ben carson's going to be the only one left, eventually, if they can find him. has anyone seen him this year? [ laughter ] this has been a bigly week for the president -- [ cheers and applause ] two big things. he declared victory against isis, and he told supporters he won the war on christmas. he won two wars this week. of course the liberal media doesn't report it because all they want to do is tear him down. children need to know this president is fighting for their favorite holiday. with that said i am very pleased to present this soon to be best-selling book. this is called "how the trumps saved christmas." would you like me to read it to you? [ cheers and applause ] all right, here we go. the trump hated christmas like he hated don lemon, like he hates robert mueller and people in yemen. no one quite knows why he's made this whole season. his dad didn't love him, that could be a reason. it might have been fueled by the

surly alt-right or just that his pants are four sizes too tight. whatever the cause is, his dad or his pants, his outbursts on twitter in capitalized rants, there's a war on christmas, he'd send with a sneer, to make maga hat wearers recoil with fear. it's not that he cared one way or the other, it's a hot-button issue that upsets your grandmother. if islamics and liberals get their own way they'll outlaw merry christmas, the trump he will say. they'll say season's greetings like we're all godless losers and force us to celebrate hanukkah-paloozas. it made the trump angry, he iced up his bone spurs and readied for war, unlike vietnam half a century before. if i'm powerful enough to stare into an eclipse, i can put merry christmas on everyone's lips. then he shouted and bellowed that santa's in danger and nancy pelosi will burn down the manger. then suddenly it was over and he put it in writing, that he'd won this big war no one knew we were

fighting. he bragged to his followers on fox and on friends that it's safe to go say "merry christmas" again. he claimed he beat starbucks, he tore them to pieces. they printed up cups that said "happy birthday to jesus." that's how the trump saved christmas for all from the american heartland to the mexican wall. so the next time you hear "happy holidays," say, "wrong, merry christmas, the american way." [ cheers and applause ] and that is how the trump saved christmas. [ cheers and applause ] are any of you -- any of you going to see "aquaman" this weekend? [ cheers ] aquaman does battle with mary poppins this week. not literally, although it would be a good fight. i'd pay $15 to see mary poppins poke him with an umbrella. he hits back with a halibut. it could be a big thing. but anyway. "aquaman" set box office records --

>> enough with aquaman, my goodness. give me a frigging break. >> jimmy: oh. [ cheers and applause ] did you say something? >> that's right. i said something. >> jimmy: oh, i remember you. you're prince nemo, right? [ laughter ] >> how dare you. nemo is a clownfish. do i look like a clownfish, jimmy? no, i am prince namor, aka the submariner. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: that's right. i'm sorry. you know, prince namor is a somewhat obscure marvel character -- >> obscure? >> jimmy: a little bit. he was here a few months ago. you were very upset you weren't in the avengers movie? >> that's the short version. >> jimmy: what brings you back here? >> well, i have another bone to pick with marvel, jimmy. >> jimmy: oh. >> i want to know why prince

namor, aka the submariner, how come he doesn't get his own movie? what the hell does aquaman have that this doesn't? am i right, people? [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: for starters, aquaman has a name that's not a paragraph long. and he also doesn't wear a shiny little speedo to work. >> excuse me? this is not a speedo, jimmy. okay? these are my panties from atlantis, all right? this is a very european look. >> jimmy: oh. >> have you ever even been to saint tropez? >> jimmy: no, i haven't. but aquaman also has that big, awesome, gold trident. do you have a weapon or anything like that? >> hello? do i have a weapon? only the horn of proteus, okay? which allows me to communicate with fish. >> jimmy: oh. see, that power is kind of lame. [ laughter ] >> you think it's lame, jimmy? you think the horn of proteus is

lame? listen to this. [ horn playing ] >> ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my friend gavin. >> jimmy: oh. >> that's right. >> jimmy: okay. i understand. >> hi, gavin. >> jimmy: hi, gavin, how are you? welcome. >> hard to believe the show has never won the emmy. >> jimmy: it really is, yeah. [ laughter ] >> did you steal this from john oliver? i don't think so. [ laughter ] this is the horn of proteus, case closed. >> jimmy: all right. but the thing is, i just think aquaman is a little bit cooler than you, that's all. >> oh, really, okay. you know what, i think -- i think james corden is cooler than you. >> jimmy: oh. >> okay? >> jimmy: oh. >> let's go, gavin. oh, by the way, look. i have little wings on my feet, okay? that way i can fly away whenever i want to, all right? that's cool. >> jimmy: uh-huh.

not really. [ laughter ] >> [ bleep ] you, jimmy. >> jimmy: oh, come on. >> [ bleep ] you. no, i don't care. i don't care. [ bleep ] you. [ bleep ] aquaman. >> jimmy: oh, come on now, don't say that. >> yeah. boy, i love being a preshow to "nightline," jesus. oh, by the way, everyone, remember, next time you go swimming in the ocean, that's where gavin and i go to the bathroom. >> jimmy: oh. >> merry christmas, jimmy. let's go, gavin, let's go. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: he's very sensitive. all right. all right, one more thing before we forge ahead. as the year draws to a close we celebrate it with the best bleeps that were needed or not. it's a special presentation, "this year in unnecessary censorship." enjoy. >> president trump hasn't exactly made your life as speaker any easier even though he obviously [ bleep ]s your [ bleep ] as a republican president would --
