Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel kidded about Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) in his opening monologue earlier this week after she labeled some in her party “pro-pedophile” for supporting Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.

“Where is Will Smith when you really need him?” Kimmel asked, a reference to Smith’s Oscar show storming off the stage and slap of comedian Chris Rock over a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith

Greene’s spokesman, Nick Dyer, said Friday that “threats against Congresswoman Greene invoking Jimmy Kimmel have been coming into our office.”

Dyer also pointy to a tweet Greene posted Thursday featuring a voice mail she said she received after Kimmel’s monologue. “I would pay good money to watch Jimmy Kimmel bash your (expletive) head in with a baseball bat,” a male caller said. “It would be so (expletive) hysterical.”

But of course, Kimmel’s line is a joke, and even if serious is a statement of opinion—that Greene deserves to be slapped—and not a true threat that he or someone in league with him would slap her. Nor could Kimmel be faulted for supposedly inciting threats by third parties, since there’s no reason to think his speech was intended to and likely to produce imminent threats of violence

Sometimes it may make sense for a Representative to report to the police things that she knows aren’t crimes, but might be useful to know for the future, but that doesn’t sound like what Rep. Greene’s tweet is referring to.
