12:36 am
to be killed by a police officer. for the crime of trying to pass a fake $20 bill, that he may not have even known was fake, an officer of the peace put his knee on the throat of another human being for eight minutes and ended his life. and many millions of americans are angry. especially in minneapolis. the policeman who killed george floyd, and the three other cops who stood there and did nothing to stop it were fired. but none of them had been charged with anything until today which was almost certainly a result of what happened last night. and the fact that no charges were filed for anyone who saw that video was hard to understand. so yesterday, late in the day, the us attorney, the county attorney and the fbi held a joint press conference, which was intended to reassure everyone that justice would be done. but it didn't. it made it worse. and so again, protestors gathered. they threw rocks, they set the
12:37 am
police station on fire. the police had to abandon their headquarters. they abandoned the neighborhood. stores were set on fire. there were explosions. it was scary. it was dangerous. some of the angry people started looting, breaking windows, stealing merchandise, setting their own community on fire. and then this is the loop we get stuck in. it goes from, it isn't right to kill an unarmed man. >> well, it also isn't right to loot, and set fires and attack the police. >> but the police are attacking us, and killing us over and over again, and nothing changes. >> well, that needs to be settled by the law. >> but an officer of the law just killed another unarmed man. >> jimmy: and so on. these were senseless acts of violence brought on by a senseless act of violence. and that just keeps going. in a loop. and again, the only reason we even know what happened to george floyd is because it's on
12:38 am
video. most incidents like this are not, which is why parents of young black men have to teach their kids how to avoid being killed based on the color of their skin. so last night, the anger is getting more intense. the police are gone. fire trucks can't even get in it's a very bad situation. and our disgusting excuse for a president, mr. tough guy, donnie bone spurs decides to make it worse. at one o'clock in the morning, instead of trying to make peace, donald trump makes a threat, a violent threat. he tweets -- "these thugs are dishonoring the memory of george floyd, and i won't let that happen. just spoke to governor tim walz and told him that the military is with him all the way. any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. thank you!" "when the looting starts, the shooting starts."
12:39 am
our president is threatening to order the military to shoot americans, specifically black americans. and then of course today, as he often does when he says something idiotic, he tried to reel that in. he claimed he was saying he didn't want that to happen. it was a warning, not a warning. but a warning. the sad thing about how much he lies is he isn't even good at it. and i don't want to make this about donald trump because this sense of hopelessness and frustration has been brewing for a long time. and not just under republican presidents or even white presidents. this is not on the government, this is on us. but, and i especially want to pose this question to older people, to the americans who've seen this before, who've lived this nightmare of race riots already in the 60s and 70s, the 80s now, is this who you want leading us? a president who clearly and
12:40 am
intentionally inflames racial violence to show how tough he is? a commander in chief who threatens to put members of our military, our national guardsmen and women in the position of having to shoot a fellow american on sight? i don't care what you are, right, left, republican, democrat. i can't imagine that there are too many of us who want that. enough is enough! we need to vote this guy out. and we need to work on this problem we have. this blatant double standard. because when you stand in front of the flag you put your hand on your heart and pledge allegiance "with liberty and justice for all." we don't have that yet. not for all. i have it. a lot of you have it. but it's not for all. my wife showed me a video last night. it's a couple years old. but it's really relevant. and before i show it to you, i want to say that it is a shame it even had to be made. but it's very powerful and i think it is worth seeing especially right now.
12:41 am
>> before you call the cops, i just want you to know the first thing i did before i got up this morning was yell at my alarm clock. my parents were raised in the south i have to roll tide or they'll disown me. they raised me in las vegas. that city still has my heart. i hate spiders. i'm a vegetarian i'm not proud about it. i've done goat yoga. i'm really not proud about that. i can tell you every single word of the nwa "straight outtacompton" album. i can also sing you every word
12:42 am
bananas are disgusting. i'm a christian. i spend almost every sunday morning teaching kids in sunday school. i am often asked if i am muslim. i'm okay with that. i'm pretty much convinced, if you met my mother, you'd automatically become a better person. my father is a veteran. he taught me how to say "yes, sir", and "yes, ma'am" to everyone that i meet. i don't hate our president. i pray for him. i love basketball. and also hockey. this is my brother, james. this is my brother mike. this is my brother john, and this is my brother rob. i've never been to jail.
12:43 am
i've never owned a gun. i hate that anyone at all might possibly be afraid of me. i'd go around the world and back again if i knew that single act might make your day better. i'm a proud man. i'm a proud black man. does any of this really matter? no. i just wanted you to get to know me better before you call the cops. >> jimmy: we'll be back with sean penn. >> dicky: abc's "jimmy kimmel live, brought to you bile old navy. le old

♪ >> jimmy: welcome back to "jimmy kimmel live." i am in my house. coming up in just a little bit we are going to highlight a very special person, our healthcare hero of the week. next week my list of guests includes the great regina king, the incredible mark ruffalo, and the gentle giant known as shaquille o'neal. my guest tonight is an oscar-winning actor who doesn't care about any of that. he is hard at work with his nonprofit organization core fighting the virus here in los angeles. please say hello to sean penn. hi, sean. >> hi, jimmy. >> jimmy: how are you? >> i'm doing fine, all things considered as they say or otherwise negative. >> jimmy: i chatted about some of this stuff with you about a month ago, and you are very active when it comes to helping out, when there's a situation that needs anyone, you're there.
12:49 am
i mean, it really is remarkable what you're doing. you've been out on the streets tell us what core has been doing and you personally have been doing. >> for about ten years we've had an emergency response organization. and we had started working in the last four years working in the united states, working in haiti, the bahamas well. and so when the covid-19 hit it occurred to me that we might be able to fill some gaps. we went to the governor, california, newsom, he guided us to mayor garcetti in los angeles who had already with his l.a. fire department developed some very keen sites. the problem for them was that these sites were being manned by lafd, which was going to take them off the streets should a brush fire occur, someone need a paramedic, all the basic responses that they're highly trained to do. they trained up our people. we recruited many from the peace corps and other groups.
12:50 am
trained them up within corps and were able to observe those sites for the city of los angeles. out of those experiences, we got a grant from jack dorsey's start small fund, along with a brant from the rockefeller foundation. we were able to expand the model across the country. so we've been expanding, expanding. we've got sites, i've got a cheat sheet here because i've been running around so much. >> jimmy: looks like you've been to kinko's, too. you have the charts. like governor cuomo with the charts. >> you need charts at my age. so yeah, we're in chicago. north carolina. navajo nation, detroit, new orleans. >> jimmy: it's just such a great idea. you take people who were working with the peace corps, and you really are, enable emergency workers to be there in case there is an emergency. it's very simple. and you would think that this
12:51 am
would be the sort of thing we had a mechanism for, and turns out you are the mechanism for this sort of thing. >> well, we're hoping that there will be more mechanisms. the idea is in picking these particularly marginalized areas around the country, and we put out a manual through our website where other organizations can get merged with local government and put these sites up and just get people tested. that's on leg. diagnostic test. not the serology or antibody tests. our test sites tell you if you're positive or negative. and the upside of that is if you're positive, you know to notify the people close to you, notify people you've been in contact with, and watch for your own health and god forbid you start to get respiratory symptoms, get yourself to a hospital. >> jimmy: so you have been tested regularly, because you are in situations where you could be exposed to the virus. and we have a video here, because i don't think a lot of
12:52 am
people know exactly what the test for covid-19 is like, the nasal test. so let's take a look at this video, sean being tested. we may have altered that a little. i don't think the q tip goes out the nose, but it does go in the nose. how many tests of these have you had? >> that one you're watching is a nasal pharyngeal test. i've had those, and the throat test. there are different tests. depending on if you're doing a walk-up or drive-through. we just opened dodger stadium, which is capable -- >> jimmy: right. >> and in that case, it's much, much better where people do the tests on their own. we have navigators to help them get through the test, make sure they're administered properly so the results come back with as much efficacy as possible.
12:53 am
that, you can march through and get a lot of people through. >> jimmy: next month you're doing something that not only is it for a great cause for core, but it also sounds like a great piece of entertainment. tell us what you're doing specifically. >> dane cook called me. >> jimmy: uh-huh. >> and gave us our first covid-19 donation and really got us started in the field. and then he followed up with that with an idea of doing a table, a streaming table reading. and this is something you'd have to go, i guess, at dane on to find out exactly the when and the where to see it. so we're doing, we've got an amazing cast so far together. we're still the cast in a couple roles, something i'll circle back to. and we're doing a reading of "fast times at ridge mont high." cameron having written in the first place. >> jimmy: yeah.
12:54 am
>> it's not, with the exception of yours truly playing a different role from the one i played -- >> jimmy: you're not playing spacoli? >> no. >> jimmy: interesting. >> there's a fantastic actor playing spacoli. it's kind of a mind-blowing cast. and with the expression there are no, nos here, i'm now inviting you to join that cast. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> and we'll keep quiet about the role you'll play. that's june 11, i think. >> jimmy: i'm not really an actor, maybe i could be the person who deliver pizza to spacoli. >> we'll have to talk to the boss, dane cook on that one many i've been busy. >> jimmy: uh-huh, yeah. i got you. all right, listen. i'm not going to make any specific demands.
12:55 am
i do want to mention if you want to help sean help us, coreresponse.org is the website. slash covid-19. i think you can just go to coreresponse.org and see it all there. i'll be making a donation to that. i hope our viewers chip in and make a donation. hey, thanks for always being there when people need you. you are an inspiring individual for sure. so thanks, sean penn. appreciate it. >> thank you. i just want to say, we really do need the support. in every one of these locations we expand to, we are hiring locally, people within that community doing it, and you've got this incredible generation of hope when you go out there and you watch what these young men and women are doing every day, you know, and on these hot tarmacs for eight-hour shifts, doing covid-19 tests with their partners, the people that are tested, because that is the partnership of the citizenry in this one. >> jimmy: sean penn, everybody. we'll be back our health care hero of the week.

1:00 am
center. they set up a temporary facility there. how much time when you get the call from the navy, how much time do you get, to get your things together and go? >> normally you have a quite decent amount of time. but this time we actually had two days. so i got a call on tuesday. i was at my job. and they said hey, you got to be on a flight on thursday. you got to get ready to go. so i looked at my boss, i got to go, i got things i got to do. off i went, it was crunch course. i had to pack my bags real quick, talk to the family a little bit, and i was literally in new york on thursday. >> jimmy: you got a wife and two kids. how old are your daughters? >> one eight year old, ray lynn, and a two month old back then, now she's almost four months, but she's camilla. >> jimmy: things were pretty dicey, i assume things have calmed down. where are you right now? >> right now i'm in jacksonville. we just got sent back here. it's a two-week quarantine zone when you have been in a hot spot.
