Giuliani’s Health Update

News broke May 3 that Giuliani was hospitalized in critical condition. His spokesman later said he was "critical but stable" and recovering from pneumonia after requiring mechanical ventilation; he is now reportedly breathing on his own with family at his side. The statement noted a preexisting restrictive airway disease linked to his 9/11 efforts and thanked supporters for their messages and prayers.

The Wider Back-and-Forth

The exchange follows a recent feud in which Giuliani called Kimmel names after late-night jokes about the Trumps. Kimmel’s monologues—part of a larger string of roasts including a White House Correspondents’ Dinner segment—have drawn both criticism and praise as the two sides trade barbs.
