A March 20th, late-night host like Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers had plenty to say about President Trump's recent trip to Japan. He met with Prime Minister Sinai Takai Chi, who gifted him 250 cherry trees to mark the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States. Host pointed out the irony, given Trump's changes to the White House Rose Garden, Kimmel highlighted new details from the Epstein investigations, including a 2009 email where Trump described Jeffrey Epstein as a possible guest at Mar-a-Lago. Not someone kicked out as he later claimed. This came amid ongoing file releases casting doubt on past statements. Meanwhile, the partial government shutdown dragged on, causing massive airport delays with 50,000 TSA agents working without pay. Some reportedly sold blood to give by, adding to the chaos as security lines nationwide. Meyers rift on Trump's press comments, like praising the Prime Minister's English, while admitting he has not learned Japanese yet, and his vague, response on possibly sending

more troops to Iran. He also joked about a homeland security nominee's tie-tying struggles, and Trump's claim of Irish roots during a meeting with Ireland's leader. As talks turn lighter, Meyers noted Luna tops the list of popular puppy names in the U.S., while tying it back to Epstein-associated Galein Maxwell, for a sharp punchline. These monologues keep the buzz alive as late-night shows return after hiatus.
