My fellow Armenians (a 10:00 shadow)

So, President Trump gave his State of the Union to Congress last night. Meanwhile, in Delaware, Joe Biden stood before a mailbox and said, "My fellow Armenians.” —Greg Gutfeld


At just under an hour and 48 minutes, Trump's speech was the longest State of the Union in American history. It was so long that Rashida Tlaib had a 10:00 shadow. It was so long Maxine Waters had to walk that thing on her head three times. —Greg Gutfeld

The secret ingredient is slavery (truffle farms)


Surgeon general pick Casey Means once claimed she used magic mushrooms to help find love, which is different from Joy Behar who was hired by a truffle farm to find mushrooms. —Greg Gutfeld

Divorced, beheaded, divorced, escaped. Zombie, lesbian, disappeared, inflatable (followed by a lifetime of . . . the same)

Of two evils, choose neither (Now I’m good at everything)

Really? Because it sure didn't look that way at your inauguration (It's not a game)


Over 27,000 people attended Bernie Sanders' rally in Washington Square Park last night. Which is especially crazy, since Bernie only went to the park to play chess. –Seth Meyers


President Trump last night threatened to close the U.S.-Mexico border, adding, quote, "Our country is full." Really? Because it sure didn't look that way at your inauguration. --Seth Meyers

she looks like Neo from "The Matrix" if he shopped at Talbots (eat all the pieces)


Things would be a lot easier for Trump if he still had Republicans in Congress to protect him. But now he has to deal with Democrats as they prepare to take control of the House. And right now Trump is fighting with them over the budget. Trump wants money for his border wall, and Nancy Pelosi has been adamant that he won't get it. And I'm just gonna guess, from looking at the two of them, that Pelosi is going to win. I mean, look at the two of them. He looks like he had a panic attack in a steam room, and she looks like Neo from "The Matrix" if he shopped at Talbots. --Seth Meyers

Trump's like a guy who gets checkmated in chess and says, "I was gonna say that." And then you'd say, "Why would you say that? You didn't checkmate me." Then he'd just eat all the pieces. --Seth Meyers
