• Stephen Colbert slammed CBS for settling a 60 Minutes lawsuit with Trump. Today's late-night hosts just aren't funny. Jimmy Kimmel's wife said she feels betrayed by her family back in Kansas because they love Trump and swears it has nothing to do with them all watching Johnny Carson re-runs.

• Universal Studio is planning to stage a London premiere for the Michael Jackson biopic next April with a performance by a Michael Jackson hologram. The movie casting is spot-on. Kevin Hart will portray the younger Michael Jackson and the older Michael Jackson will be played by Liza Minnelli.

• The Los Angeles Olympic Committee is reportedly set to ban transgender women from competing in women's sports in the 2028 Olympic Games. In women's swimming races, transgender women have a very unfair advantage. They're able to swim much faster in the water because they have a rudder.

• New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdan is preparing to take office on New Year's Day. He's planning a religious New Year's Eve gala for his Muslim brothers. Instead of a glitter ball dropping from the One Times Square skyscraper he's going to throw Anderson Cooper off the roof of the building.

• The Women of the View ripped Republicans Friday for shutting down the government then ripped Democrats Monday for opening the government up. I just hope we can delay the civil war until after the Super Bowl. The latest poll says 50% of Americans believe the other 50% have lost their minds.

• Congresswoman AOC demanded that Senator Schumer step down as Senate Minority Leader Tuesday. House Democrats say Schumer can't control his Caucus. Well, Bill Clinton, Jack Kennedy and Donald Trump couldn't control their Caucuses either, but that didn't keep them from getting elected.

• Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy assured holiday travelers that flight restrictions will ease once all the air traffic controllers return. Nevertheless thousands of flights will still be cancelled over the next three weeks. This could be the most peaceful Thanksgiving we've had since the Pilgrims landed.

• GOP Senator Ron Johnson quoted an anonymous Democratic House staffer who'd warned the shutdown will continue until planes start falling out of the sky. Well, that certainly didn't require a shutdown to happen. Last week I set my phone on Boeing airplane mode, and now it drops all my calls.

• The Supreme Court heard arguments over a president's power vs. Congress's power to impose tariffs. We're so blessed. The Founders created the Supreme Court to make sure the president can never hurt the country then they created Congress to make sure the president can never help the country.

• President Trump enjoyed himself Sunday attending the Washington Commanders home game and talking football in the Fox booth. He's finding it harder and harder to relax. Trump has to spend three-fourths of his time on the golf course doing something he hates to do, reading obscene sky-writing.

• President Trump welcomed Syria's president Ahmad al-Sharaa to the White House Monday who had once been a member of ISIS. He's the fifth Oval Office visitor in history with a previous international reputation as a terrorist, after Yassar Arafat, Nelson Mandela and Joe Biden's two dogs.

• Syria's President Ahmad al-Sharaa, formerly on the U.S. terrorist list, was granted a visit to the White House Monday to discuss joint anti-ISIS cooperation. Ahmad revealed Syria produces 3 million barrels of oil a day. He was really smart to wait until Dick Cheney died before making it public.

• Berlin's Olympic Stadium hosted the first-ever NFL game in Germany Sunday. A quartet sang the German national anthem. Under the 1945 peace terms, it's not allowed to be sung by more than four Germans at the same time for the same reason I'm not allowed to go get the beers. It's still too soon.
