Conservative CNN analyst Scott Jennings flagged disturbing messages from Keith Olbermann to the FBI — including one in which the liberal political commentator wrote, “You’re next, motherf–ker.”
Jennings on Monday flagged the since-deleted posts from the former MSNBC and ESPN host to the bureau, claiming they amounted to a threat on his life.

“You’re next motherf–ker,” read one of Olbermann’s hateful missives, according to a screenshot shared by Townhall columnist Dustin Grage.
“But keep mugging to the camera,” Olbermann snarled in another deleted post, according to the grabs Jennings retweeted from Grage and tagged FBI Director Kash Patel in his response.
Olbermann appeared to be reacting to a post from Jennings about Disney bringing Jimmy Kimmel’s ABC show back on Tuesday amid uproar over its short hiatus in the wake of Kimmel’s controversial remarks about Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the motives behind it.
“So basically his employer suspended him for being an insensitive pr–k, and we don’t live in an authoritarian regime? Got it,” Jennings wrote in the post that prompted Olbermann’s furious response.
“Now we get the fascists off real TV. That’d mean your career is next, Jennings. Send a tape to Real America’s Voice,” Olbermann added in the same threat.
“But keep mugging to camera, amateur.”
Olbermann’s representatives did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
“Per policy, the FBI does not comment on or confirm or deny the existence of an investigation,” the agency told The Post Tuesday.
Olbermann has faced huge backlash in recent days for his controversial posts about Kirk and Kimmel, particularly following the news that several TV affiliates, including those owned by Sinclair, would preempt Kimmel’s show.
“Burn in hell, Sinclair. Alongside Charlie Kirk,” Olbermann wrote in another X post.
He maintained that nothing Kimmel said in his comments about Kirk was untrue.
In another post, he branded Marco Rubio a “political prostitute” as he reshared a clip of the Secretary of State speaking ahead of President Trump’s Tuesday speech at the UN.
He also told conservative influencer Libs of TikTok to “cry more, witch,” in response to her post accusing Disney and ABC of having “caved” by allowing Kimmel’s show to return.
Kimmel is set to return to ABC on Tuesday night, although “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” will continue to be preempted this week by Sinclair Broadcast Group and Nexstar Media Group, the companies said in a statement.
“We made a decision last week to preempt ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s ‘ill-timed and insensitive’ comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve,” Nexstar said Tuesday.
“In the meantime, we note that ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ will be available nationwide on multiple Disney-owned streaming products, while our stations will focus on continuing to produce local news and other programming relevant to their respective markets.”
The move came the day after Sinclair made the same decision.
“Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!‘ across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming,” Sinclair posted on X on Monday.
“Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return.”
