♪ grocery outlet bargain market ♪ >> dicky: from hollywood, it's "jimmy kimmel live!" tonight -- nikolaj coster-waldau. from marvel's "avengers: endgame" danai gurira. and music from backstreet boys. and now, hold on, jimmy kimmel. ♪ [cheers and applause] >> jimmy: very nice. nice. nice. welcome. hi, everybody. i'm jimmy, i'm the host of the

show. thank you for watching. thank you for coming. las vegas was nice. hey, who watched the -- i know not everyone has a tv anymore, but who watched the college basketball game last night? [cheers and applause] you missed a good one if you didn't, the virginia cavaliers beat texas tech in overtime last night. virginia overcame very talented opponents, and as a ults are, t the players walk away with the top prize of zero dollars. the coach is tony bennett. when i saw his name trending, it made me nervous, because the other tony bennett's 92. that's last thing you want to see. while it was a magical night for tony, it was a tough loss for texas tech and it may have been

tougher for texas senator ted cruz, a lot of texas tech fans think he's to blame for the loss because of this tweet sent moments before the end of regulation. he wrote 35 seconds, one-point lead, go red raiders. number one defense. and by the moment he posted it, the game was in overtime and the red raiders lost. this is not the first time this happened. last year before game seven of the western conference nba finals, ted cruz tweeted, and the rockets lost and he got blamed. and back in 2017, i remember he posted congrats to lori laughlin's daughter for acceptance into usc, well deserved. and we all know what happened with that. [ applause ] so he's getting, poor ted felt so guilty last night he went straight home, ate a whole bowl of crickets. did you know that?

put his tweet up for a second. what is that? it's like the mayonnaise boogeyman is hovering over the arena. he defended himself on twitter today by pointing out all the times he was there in person to cheer on texas teams that won. i was there when the astros won, the spurs, the rockets in '94. i am not a jinx. he has to be the saddest senator of all. imagine having to tweet "i am not a jinx." congratulations to uva on winning. and to the thousands and thousands of people with little or no knowledge or interest in college basketball who nonetheless won their office pools today. and now american workers can get back to what really matters, eating birthday cakes in conference rooms every day. this is from the angels/raiders baseball game in anaheim on

sunday. joey gall joey gallo became the first to get to first let's watch that again. he gets, there you a full even joe biden was like hey, dude, take it easy. president trump today pushed back against reports that he wants to double up on his policy of separating families at the border, and then he did something unexpected. he made an attempt to blame it on obama. >> let's go. >> obama separated the children, by the way. just so you understand. president obama separated the children. those cages that were shown, i think they were very inappropriate, they were built by president obama's

administration. not by trump. president obama had child separation. take a look. the press knows it. you know it. we all know it. >> jimmy: no, we don't know it, because you just made it up. at this point, donald trump has taken more kids away from their parents than michael jackson, but i'll let him finish. >> i'm the one that stopped it. president obama had child separation. i'll tell you something. once you don't have it, that's why you see many more people coming. they're coming like it's a picnic, because let's go to disneyland. president obama separated children. they had child administration. separation. i was who changed it. thank you very much. >> jimmy: just to recap it. obama did the administratiosepat was a good thing, but he stopped it. if he wants to separate children from families, start with eric

and don jr. there's someone with skin even thinner than trump's, and that goes to devin knnunez. he filed a $250 million lawsuit against twitter and a couple of twitter accounts that were making fun of him. and now he's taking action against his hometown newspaper, the fresno bee, he's suing the fresno bee for $150 million because of a story that linked a company in which he is an investor to a yacht party at which the entertainment was reportedly cocaine and prostitutes. and in a delightful twist, as he was filing this lawsuit, as he announced it to separate himself from the cocaine and prostitutes, the #yachtcocaineprostitutes became the number one trending thing on twitter. it's nice when we can all agree

on something, isn't it? when i saw yachtcocaineprostitutes on twitter, i just assumed kid rock had a new album out. devin nunes is a very angry snowflake, so he will sue you. he's unleashed a new tv campaign. >> i'm devin nunes. recently, the fresno bee reported that a yacht party had prostitute t prostitutes and cocaine. i was not at that party. in fact, i've never been invited to a party at all. not just yacht parties, any parties. bachelor parties, christmas parties. my mom didn't even invite me to my own 7th birthday, because she wanted to, quote, keep it small that year. rest assured that i spend my

free time fighting for you, because no one wants to hang out with me. >> devin nunes for california, the only party he's in is republican. >> i'm devin nunes. you guys doing anything later? >> jimmy: now he's probably going to sue us for that. [cheers and applause] meanwhile, the only guy funnier than devin nunes right now is the star of the number one late night show for simple folk called "huckabee." he had quite an amusing take on the story of a 104-year-old woman whose number one wish was to get arrested. >> ann was taken for a ride in the police car. and when asked what it felt like to be arrested, she said, well, it will make me much more careful of what i say and do. at 104. but, the police were very nice throughout. hey, keith, i got to be honest with you. i'm just glad her wish was not

to be a counterfeiter, you know why? >> no, i don't know why. >> because make any real money. >> you know what, that sucked, this show sucks and i quit. [ bleep ] you, mike. >> jimmy: that was a little over the top. there was drama in washington today. attorney general william baurr testified before congress. he says he plans to release the mueller report within a week, as soon as he's done rolling big swaths of black paint over it. it's going to have more blackouts than brett kavanaugh in college. say what you want about william barr. he is character

it's like trump made a my pillow dream for a real boy. measles are coming back. 78 new cases have been reported in the past week alone. according to the cdc, there have been 464 cases of measles so far this year, more than all of last year. and it's happening because lunatics aren't getting their children vaccinated. if america keeps, we keep going the way we are, by the way 2030 we'll all have the plague, and our president will be a monkey with a shotgun. there's a conspiracy going around that ruth bader ginsberg is dead. they say she's been dead for weeks and the democrats are covering it up to keep her from being replaced by trump. a hearse was reported seeing leaving her neighborhood. if you want to move a body, you're better off with a uber

than a hearse. where do they come from, these, i mean, trust me. ruth bader ginsberg is headlining coachella this weekend. but in order to put this one to rest we decided to go straight to the source. with that said, i'd like you to welcome live from washington, the honorable ruth bader ginsberg. please say hello. [cheers and applause] >> jimmy: thank you, thank you so much for being with us. >> hello. >> jimmy: how are you feeling, justice ginsberg? >> any day above ground is good for me. good old ruth b. ginsburger. the important thing is i ran 25 miles and did 1,000 crunches before breakfast this morning. >> jimmy: wow, that's impressive, especially for a woman of your age. >> you have to keep the old bod

tight, jimbo. >> jimmy: what do you have to say to the people who say you're dead. >> that is ridiculous, ruth bader ginsberger is not dead. >> jimmy: it's ginsberg. >> don't cut me off. i'm the supreme court justice lady. >> jimmy: i'm sorry. >> what was the question again? >> jimmy: what do you have to say to the people who are claiming you are dead? >> that is just nonsense. i'm feeling better than ever. i won my yoga class this morning. i was shouting so much, my tongue is clogged. >> jimmy: i didn't think you could win a yoga class, can you win a yoga class? >> if you correct me again, i'll have you thrown in the hoos cow. you chicken scenhemer. show so respect to this icon,

you bitch. >> jimmy: i'm having trouble believing this is you, justice ginsberg. >> if i wasn't ruth bader ginsberger, could i do this? >> jimmy: yeah, i think you probably could. >> oh, so you think i'm just a random looney who wandered in here high as a kite off pain pills he stole from a dog? >> jimmy: yeah, maybe, kind of. >> bingo! >> jimmy: oh, so you admit you are not justice ginsberg. >> no, i admit bingo is the name of the dog. he bit me on the tookus. but i was so goofed up on oxy i couldn't feel a damn thing. suit yourself, i took a fistful of xanies. i'm about to go b-i-n-g-o, b-i-n-g-o!

all day. >> jimmy: so do you wear a wig? >> yes, take the wig off. >> jimmy: and "walking dead", another show you can or cannot talk about? because i read in one of the trades that this is it for your character. she's dead. she's going to be on a little bit, and then she's done. >> well, i can say as much about that as i can about -- >> jimmy: oh, is that right? >> exactly. >> jimmy: because one of the producers of the show did say that, is that right? >> did she? did she? >> jimmy: i didn't see it happen myself, but i read it. >> right. i will say i can say as much about that as end game. i have a pretty simple life. i can tell nobody anything. keeps life very simple. >> jimmy: have you told anybody any of this stuff? >> about? >> jimmy: about what happens. have you revealed this to anyone close to you?

>> outside of the people who i work with? >> jimmy: family, et cetera? >> heavens, no, no, no, no. >> jimmy: you don't trust them? >> no. who trusts family. no, i'm kidding. they largely don't want to know. >> jimmy: do people expect you to be like the character? do they expect that kind of demeanor from you? >> i get that a lot. and the fact that i can be very goofy and silly. they're surprised by that. but there was something that happened that literally made me feel like michone in all the years i never felt like her. it was about six weeks ago. i'm in l.a. quite a bit, but not that much. so i kept hearing these coyote stories. >> jimmy: about actual coyotes? >> yes, and what they do to your pets and like i was getting freaked out from the stories alone. >> jimmy: yeah, there are coyote

ease in t coyotes in the hills. >> i end up calling them hyenas, because i'm from zimbabwe. >> jimmy: one hyena would eat about a thousand coyotes. don't worry about that. >> i have this terrible habit. i walk my dog way too late. i'm a night owl. he's like a 17, 18-pound rescue mutt. he's tough but small. we're walking back towards my house. i've never seen one in my life. and there is a coyote, i said coyote, right? >> jimmy: mm-hm. >> there is a coyote standing there about a half block away. i run up to my house. i was heart pounding. and i look it up online. i'm like, what is this, what does this mean? i've never seen one in my neighborhood in all my years here. i get all this information like pepper spray or a big rock, you know, knock them out. and i'm like, i don't have

pepper spray, and i don't have a big rock. but in my house, there are many, many, many, many practice swords. >> jimmy: a sword will do it. >> just so i don't get arrested. they are not sword swords. they're made out of wood. >> jimmy: explain it to the police. >> no. so i was like, okay. this is how i'm walking him. i know how to use this thing. seven years, i know how to use it. i can knock out a coyote with one of these things. from then on, i'm walking my dog poppy, and i have a sword in my hand. now, like, literally, when i get to a main sort of road i sort of behind it behind my baggy sweats. i can't have people seeing this as they're driving by, because one time this guy did see me, and he was walking his dog, and his dog saw my dog and wanted to play, and he saw what was in my hammed, and he was like, abigail, come on!

>> jimmy: abigail. >> and they're running off. and he's like pulling this dog, come on! and i'm like, dude, i would have fought for abigail, too! and poppy's like smellin', he's doing his dog stuff, to pee. and i'm standing there with this sword. and i'm like, stay right there. i know they jump out of bushes and stuff. and i'm like this u scanning , area. and i'm like, oh, my god. >> jimmy: coyotes beware.
