On a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, there was no shortage of shocking and crazy news to discuss. From President Trump‘s decision to back off of tariffs to the Senate advancing nominations, and even LA firefighters being sent to the Super Bowl, it was a packed episode.
Starting with the tariffs, Trump announced that he would be lifting the 25% tax on Mexican and Canadian goods after claiming to have secured concessions from their respective leaders. The goal, according to Trump, is to stop the flow of immigrants and narcotics into the country. However, it is worth noting that while 21,000 pounds of fentanyl came through the southern border, only 43 pounds came through the northern border with Canada. Despite this, Trump still slapped tariffs on Canada before eventually calling them off.
Moving on from tariffs, Trump’s Department of Justice now has a list of 5,000 FBI employees and agents involved in the investigations related to January 6th and Trump’s attempts to overturn the election. Additionally, there are reports that Trump is working on an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education. While these decisions may seem questionable, it is important to remember that Trump has a unique way of doing things, as evidenced by his interesting choice of spelling and grammar.
In other news, the talk show took a moment to express gratitude towards the brave LA firefighters who recently contained the Palisades and Eaten fires. To show their appreciation, the show arranged a fun game for two firefighters to compete for a chance to win tickets to the Super Bowl. Captain Todd Peterson and Ryan Maurice from the LA County Fire Department and Camp 8 Malibu respectively went head-to-head in a challenge to bring back items in their team’s colors as quickly as possible. Despite a comical mishap involving someone else’s underwear, both firefighters were awarded tickets to the big game.
In conclusion, Jimmy Kimmel Live never fails to provide an entertaining and lively discussion of the latest news. From Trump’s ever-changing decisions to the heroic efforts of firefighters, each episode offers a unique blend of humor and insight.
