Jimmy Kimmel Has Doubts About Trump's Religious Convictions
Welcome to Best of Late Night, 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.
'Put a Shirt On'
President Trump attended the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington on Thursday. Jimmy Kimmel, who called him 'MAGA Teresa,' said he only showed up 'because he doesn't like it when people worship anyone other than him.'
'He covered a lot of subjects. He bragged about deporting immigrants, his war on diversity, fighting 'transgenders' — all the sacred teachings of Jesus.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'President Trump spoke today at the National Prayer Breakfast, in case you needed more proof that those don't work.' — SETH MEYERS
'While speaking today at the National Prayer Breakfast, President Trump said, 'None of us knows exactly when our time on Earth will be over.' I don't know, I'm thinking whenever R.F.K. Jr. gets confirmed.' — SETH MEYERS
'Trump also told the audience we need to bring religion back, and who better to bring it back than the guy who sells 'God Bless the U.S.A.' bibles for $59.99.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'Of all the unbelievable things about Donald Trump, religious people believing he is also a religious person might be the toughest one to understand.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'Honestly, if Trump met Jesus, he'd call him a loser, he'd tell him to get a haircut and put a shirt on.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
The Punchiest Punchlines (Super Bowl LIX Edition)
'Super Bowl Sunday, also known as 'Get Drunk in a Friend of a Friend's Weird Living Room Day,' is imminent. Hope everyone has their friendship bracelets picked out.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'Yeah, between the game and the commercials, it's going to be four straight hours of Patrick Mahomes on TV.' — JIMMY FALLON
'Donald Trump will be there at the game. He said — this is fun — he said he's going to let Elon pick the winner this year.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'He will make history as the first sitting president to go to the Super Bowl. I think the reason Trump's going to the Super Bowl, he can't stand to have even one day where he's on TV less than Taylor Swift.' — JIMMY KIMMEL
'Taylor Swift will also be in attendance to support her boyfriend, the Chiefs' superstar tight end, Taylor Swift's boyfriend.' — STEPHEN COLBERT
'I saw that this year's Super Bowl will be watched in 180 countries. Yeah, well, 179 if we take over Canada by Saturday.' — JIMMY FALLON

ABC's Terry Moran is suspended following his social media post calling Trump and Miller haters
NEW YORK (AP) — ABC News has suspended correspondent Terry Moran for calling Trump administration deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a 'world class hater' in a since-deleted social media post. Moran's post was swiftly condemned by officials in the Republican administration, including Vice President J.D. Vance. ABC News, in a statement, said it 'stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others.' The New York-based network said Moran was suspended pending further evaluation. Moran, who interviewed President Donald Trump a few weeks ago, said in his post on X at 12:06 a.m. on Sunday that the president was a world-class hater, too. But he wrote that for the president, his hatred is a means to an end, 'and that end is his own glorification.' For Miller, Moran's post said, 'his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate.' Vance, on X, said that Moran's post was 'dripping with hatred.' The vice president wrote: 'Remember that every time you watch ABC's coverage of the Trump administration.' Miller, on X, said Moran's 'full public meltdown' exposed the corporate press. 'For decades, the privileged anchor and reporters narrating and gatekeeping our society have been radicals adopting a journalist's pose. Terry pulled off his mask.'

US, Chinese trade negotiators meeting in London
Top U.S. and Chinese officials are meeting in London on Monday to try to fortify the countries' temporary trade truce, which is currently on track to expire in August. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and U.S. trade representative Jamieson Greer are in the U.K. for the talks with Chinese Vice President He Lifeng. It's unclear how long negotiations could last, but Chinese officials have predicted they could extend several days. 'The two sides need to make good use of the economic and trade consultation mechanism already in place, and seek win-win results in the spirit of equality and respect for each other's concerns,' Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian wrote in a post on X ahead of the meeting. 'The Chinese side is sincere about this, and at the same time has its principles.' President Trump confirmed plans for the London confab last week after a phone call with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who the president has described as 'extremely hard to make a deal with.' 'The call lasted approximately one and a half hours, and resulted in a very positive conclusion for both Countries,' Trump wrote in a social media post Thursday. The two sides have been attempting to hash out a long-term trade agreement following Trump's announcement of sweeping tariff hikes on most countries in April. The Trump administration urged countries last week to come forward with deals more favorable to U.S. interests. U.S. and Chinese leaders brokered their temporary pause in the tariff hikes after meeting in Geneva last month. Under that arrangement, the U.S. lowered its tariff rate on Chinese goods from 145 percent to 30 percent, and China agreed to lower its tariff to 10 percent from 125 percent for 90 days. China's exports to the U.S. were down 35 percent in May compared to last year, according to the latest analysis from Dutch multinational banking and financial services firm ING Group, adding pressure ahead of the latest round of meetings between the two countries. 'Exports to the U.S. surprisingly decelerated despite the trade war reprieve,' ING's analysts wrote. 'We expect that export growth to the US could recover in the coming months.' 'We could see import front-loading amid the still elevated risk that tariffs could once again move higher in light the uncertainty about trade talks over the past month,' the firm added.

Live updates: L.A. protests disperse but more planned after dozens arrested
Further protests are expected in the Los Angeles area Monday, after a weekend where more than 50 protesters were arrested as anti-ICE demonstrators clashed with law enforcement. The Trump administration ordered the deployment of more than 2,000 National Guard personnel in an effort to quell the protests, prompting California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) to say he plans to sue the administration. The Service Employees International Union is holding a rally in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon in support of David Huerta, president of SEIU California, the state's largest public-sector union. Huerta was arrested Friday on charges of obstruction during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid last week. He is expected to be arraigned in federal court Monday.
