Jimmy Kimmel has reacted to news of progress on the proposed TikTok sale, with the U.S. and China having reportedly agreed to the "framework" of a deal. While details remain scant, it's widely expected that U.S. software company Oracle will play a leading role in the planned acquisition. Oracle is headed by President Donald Trump's ally Larry Ellison, who is the company's co-founder, executive chairman, and chief technology officer.
"Now instead of the Chinese government harvesting our thoughts, interests, and personal information, Trump's buddy will have them instead," quipped Kimmel. "At least it's somebody we can trust though, right?"
Kimmel also touched on the Emmy Awards held on Sunday night, showing Guillermo interview winners such as Severance's Britt Lower and Tramell Tillman, Adolescence's Owen Cooper and Stephen Graham, and Hacks' Hannah Einbinder and Jean Smart.
