Sean Hannity kicked off his show Friday night by "throwing down the gauntlet" against late-night host Jimmy Kimmel.
"Tonight we're going to pound him with his own words," the host began in his opening monologue. "I don't take joy in this, but I have had it with the unrelenting hypocrisy. We are laying down the gauntlet. We will show you video proof of Kimmel's creepy, perverted, masochistic, and even racist past."
Jimmy Kimmel's Feud With Sean Hannity Over Melania Trump Joke Blows Up on Twitter
View Story"If you're half the man you pretend to be all you really have to do is apologize to the First Lady," Hannity explained, referencing Kimmel's jokes about Melania Trump's accent on his show earlier in the week.
Hannity rolled out a series of clips showing the "late night misogynist" during his time on Comedy Central's "The Man Show." In the clips, Kimmel asked women if they could guess what's in his pants by feeling the outside. Hannity continued his attack Kimmel by calling him a "sick, twisted, creepy, perverted weirdo" and a "holier-than-thou hypocrite" and also showing a "Man Show" clip of the host in blackface.
The Fox News host previously posted the clips on Twitter, where he called Kimmel "Harvey Weinstein Jr."

View StoryAfter the monologue, Kimmel took to Twitter to clap back at Hannity, again.
Dear @SeanHannity thx for the trip down Man Show memory lane. The idea that YOU'd call ANYONE a “pervert” while slobbering over Trump, Ailes, O'Reilly and, YES, Roy Moore – who you DID SUPPORT is, to quote a fella you love very much, “Sad!” #nobodyissafefromKimmelspervertedwrath

What you don't seem to realize is that I LOVE this. I guess it's one of my perversions https://t.co/OCp9lTwuTj
@jimmykimmel
Sounds like a win-win. If only Congress could get along as well as you and I do. Goodnight sweet Sean. https://t.co/A0e6pDvw6P

The feud began Thursday when Hannity expressed his anger at the "ass clown" for poking fun of First Lady Melania Trump in his monologue on Monday night.
Kimmel then fired back on his show Thursday night, followed by a full-out Twitter war that shows no sign of stopping.
Until next time ...
