As reported by Big League Politics yesterday, a public boycott of Jimmy Kimmel’s show reached 30,000 petition signatures. But just 24 hours after that article was released, the number has gone up to over 150,000 petition signatures, which is more than double their goal of 50,000 signatures.

If you would like to read the petition in its entirety, or sign it, you can reach it through this link.

As was reported yesterday, the boycott began after Kimmel insulted Melania Trump for her part in the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House. Kimmel tried to insinuate that the First Lady was trying to escape from the White House, and insulted her accent as she was reading a children’s book.
