Trump Takes Oath, Pardons January 6 Rioters: Late Night's News of the Week

Late Night with Seth Meyers

[InformationLiesAtTheEdges]

Seth and his team helped us get through the first week of this new era with a mix of sharp wit, wonderful trolling (marble-mouth Seth!), great graphics, much LOL word play and other bursts of fun. Seth's energy and vibe were so uplifting and engaging. There were many truly LOL moments. 😂

[dianescarritt]

At this rate Seth and his fellow late night hosts need to have a 24/7 commentary to overwhelm our unhinged "leader."

[raymondm.]

I have to say that Ronny Chieng's Carmen Sandiego joke regarding Melania's outfit was better. And on Monday, Jon Stewart pointed out that the brim of her hat made it impossible for Trump to kiss her.

[miguelmatallanes]

Was that an "Are you afraid of the dark?" reference??? Because I'm pretty sure it was. 😂

2:35, if I was one of Seth's writers I would submit "The fabric and craft retailer JOANN last week filed for bankruptcy, and I have to say, their filing was ON POINT"

Trump takes oath immediately breaks oath

[Lanirderosa-dm]

Which executive order lowered the price of eggs?

[auntiepha]

Have the price of groceries and gas gone down yet? Has the Ukraine war ended yet? Asking for a friend.

[davesky]

I'm surprised trump did not select Rudy for AG!

[bethchaosdragon]

Melania's inauguration outfit made me think of Mad's "Spy v Spy" when I first saw Melania.

[jsjs]

I need to know which of the writers came up with that lady squeezing pumpkins with her thighs, thing. 😅

[macschomo]

Poor Americans. It feels like the movie idiocracy.

[camelsheit_on_the_walls]

"He was very effective. He knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. It was pretty good. Thank you to Elon."


- trump, at his pre-inauguration rally.

Closing of Joannes here is awful...now the closest craft store is 30 miles away. I will be buying yarn on sale at joannes untill they close.

[shiftymcgee]

Musk is less Einstein and more Dr. Strangelove.

[jeffrey_solis]

As a Jeffrey, I'm offended that Seth thinks I have any money or that I'm part of high society.

[mwest]

Brett: "It's JD's fault! I tode him to hode my beer and he grabbed the M80!!"

[Seldomane]

I would love to see a show that shows Scollins, Baze, etc and Seth at a conference table going over the jokes for the day. I would pay good money to watch a half hour of that 5 days a week.

[BirdsNNVA]

He looks like he just opened the Ark of the Covenant at the end of “Raiders on the Lost Ark”.

[arcachnard]

With that kind of hat she will more like having a hand in looking for M.A.D Agents.
