Jimmy Kimmel for Trump: “The hamster who feeds his brain is tired” | TV review late at night

Jimmy Kimmel

On Jimmy Kimmel’s live broadcast, the host spoke about Joe Biden’s extension of America’s national state of emergency, with Covid’s case increasing again. “At the moment, Covid is like the Bachelor franchise: they’re announcing a new version before the old one is over,” he said.

On Fox’s Sean Hannity show, Donald Trump called to say he would handle the current crisis better than Biden, focusing on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Kimmel said that if he were in charge now, “he would throw rolls of paper towels at Ukrainian refugees.”

Haniti tried once again to persuade the former president to speak out against Putin, but he refused, instead boasting about their friendship. “There are body bags on the screen, [and] he brags about the guys he knows, “he said.

Then Trump decided to talk about the dangers of windmills and how they are currently killing eagles. “What’s the deal with him and the windmills?” Kimmel asked. “Did he have a traumatic experience with mini gold as a child? Maybe that’s why his hair is like that? ”

He added: “I have a feeling that the hamster that feeds his brain is getting tired right now.

Stephen Colbert

On The Late Show, Stephen Colbert talked about the arrest of a subway shooting suspect by drawing attention to Zack Tahan, who spotted him on security. “You hear that MTA cameras work much better when they work at all,” Colbert said.

There is some controversy over who was the first to identify the suspects, leading to confusion over who will receive the $ 50,000 reward. It is alleged that the suspect himself may have called. “It’s going to be an awkward award ceremony,” he joked.

Then Colbert said it was good to be back on the subway now. “It’s just as safe and clean as you remember,” he said.

Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine has prompted Sweden and Finland to consider joining NATO. “This may be the most shocking northern union since black licorice combined with salt,” he said.

Netflix is ​​one of many companies suspending the service in Russia, leading to a class action lawsuit by Russian users. “Then a few hours later a screen appeared and the judges said more and they said yes,” he said.

Colbert also talks about the confusing names given to Covid’s new variants, an unforgettable mix of numbers and letters. “People would take these options more seriously if you gave them great names Big Bad Greg or No Good Gretchen,” he said.

Elon Musk became the largest shareholder on Twitter, paying $ 2.89 billion, and he celebrated by posting “a bunch of crap nonsense” before offering to buy the entire platform for $ 43 billion in cash.

“He could do so much with that money,” Colbert said. “Fix world hunger. Tackle climate change. Make a decent haircut. ”

Musk wants to make Twitter a platform for free speech. “Twitter is now a platform for free speech around the world!” C0lbert objected. “Do you know how I know that?” Because no one can stop me from tweeting, Elon Musk, in any language.

Trevor Noah

On The Daily Show, Trevor Noah also talked about Musk and his desire to buy shares on Twitter for $ 54.20, a cannabis joke.

“That’s how you know you’re too rich,” he said. “When you spend an extra few million dollars just to add a weed joke to your takeover offer.”

He added: “We already knew he was on high when he said he would unlock the full potential of Twitter.

Noah also refuted the claim that Twitter is no longer all it can be. “I thought Twitter was unlocked?” He said. “Is there an unlocked version I don’t know about?”

He added: “I have never logged in to Twitter and left, I just want this place to be vacated. People are really refraining here, all the nuances and nonsense. “
