"A lot of crazy stuff happened while we were away," Jimmy Kimmel said on Tuesday's Kimmel Live, "so to get us all up to speed, here's a quick refresher of the most important events of the past two weeks." His definition of "important" is a little subjective, but President Trump and his lawyer Rudy Giuliani both made appearances at the end. "You go away two weeks, truth isn't truth anymore!" he protested.

"So the president — who, again, is an unidicted co-conspirator in a federal felony — is openly saying the Justice Department should not prosecute criminals if they are Republicans," Colbert said. "He might as well have tweeted: 'Saw "The Purge." Great movie. Jeff Sessions won't let me do it for real because "laws." SAD! #PurgeJeff.'"
