Welcome to Late Night Roundup, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
Trophy Hunting
House Speaker Mike Johnson presented President Trump with the first-ever “America First” award” during the Republican Congressional Committee’s fund-raiser dinner on Wednesday.
“Oh, my God, that’s so great,” Seth Meyers said on Thursday. “He can hold it with all his other fake awards, the FIFA Peace Prize and a crown from Burger King.”
“How many fake trophies that were made specifically for him is this guy going to get? First the FIFA Peace Prize, now the America First award — and he’s neither America first nor pro-peace. He’s getting a participation trophy for something he didn’t even participate in.” — SETH MEYERS
“The statue itself, the inaugural America First award in recognition of our president’s extraordinary need to win things every single day, is a golden eagle. And that is going on the mantel right next to his re-gifted Nobel Peace Prize and the Olympic gold medal he didn’t win and the three tournament championships he won at his own golf club. — JIMMY KIMMEL
“I can’t figure out who should be more embarrassed, the guy who came up with the new award or the guy who proudly accepted the new award.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
The Punchiest Punchlines (Trophy Edition)
“How about the ‘Liesman’ trophy? That would be a better name. The B-Emmy would be good. The Nobel ‘Piece of You Know What.’” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“You know when you promise to buy your kids gummy worms if they have a good behavior day? It’s like that.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“But Trump loves trophies. I mean, he even married one.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
