Jimmy Kimmel just obliterated conservative commentator Tucker Carlson for alleging he was mauled in a demon attack.
“Tucker Carlson is apparently part of a faith-based documentary called ‘Christianities,’” Kimmel explained on Monday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
Calling Carlson’s dubious claim “absolutely mind-boggling,” the late-night host mockingly added, “Tucker makes a very casual confession to the host of the documentary detailing a terrifying face-off with the devil himself.”
Kimmel then cut to a clip from the documentary of Carlson speaking about the alleged incident.
“I got attacked when I was asleep with my wife and four dogs in the bed and mauled, physically mauled,” Carlson said in a clip from the movie.
Kimmel laid into Carlson over his claim, joking that the former Fox News host “got Babadooked!”
The comedian’s joke was a nod to the 2014 horror film, which follows a mom and her son who become plagued by a terrifying entity after a disturbing storybook called “The Babadook” appears at their house.
“And, strangely, the most unbelievable part of the story is that he has a wife!” Kimmel joked.
After playing a separate clip of Carlson claiming that he found claw marks on his body that were “still bleeding” after the supernatural attack, Kimmel teased, “Looks like someone finally cracked into that ketamine Elon sent him for Christmas.”
Elsewhere in his monologue, Kimmel joked that he had a clip of Carlson talking to the demon in question before drawing laughs as he played footage of a Carlson interview with Donald Trump.
Kimmel then took another jab at Trump, calling out his vice presidential nominee, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, as “Beelzeblob’s running mate.”
