Well, today, the failing New York Times revealed that the person who met with nunes was in fact, two people suspenseful music laughter according to the times, the sources were ezra cohenwatnick, the senior director for intelligence at the National Security council, and Michael Ellis, a lawyer who works on National Security issues at the white house. Say it isnt so, Michael Ellis and ezra cohenwatnick ive trusted you ever since i learned your names at the beginning of this sentence laughter i cant believe its those two guys whose names ive forgotten at this point right. Stephen the rest of the story hasnt changed. It was legal wiretaps of foreign officials who were talking to trump people. Still dont know what they were talking about. Or if Trumps Campaign colluded with putin. But cnbcs Geoff Cutmore tried to get the answer straight from the horses mouth and the man who rides shirtless on it. You and the russian government did never tried to influence the outcome of the u. S. President ial president ial election and there will be no evidence found . translated Ronald Reagan once debating about taxes and addressing the americans said, watch my lips, he said, no.

Speaking of Donald Trumps loved ones, yesterday it was announced that ivanka trump will become a federal employee in the white house, serving as the president s eyes and ears. Yeah, yeah, eyes and ears. No word yet on who will be operating his brain. laughter piano riff cheers and applause yay brain very happy to get this man bring your daughter to govern day. laughter so hes hired his daughter as assistant to the president , his soninlaw as his senior adviser, and put eric and donald junior in charge of the National Hair gel reserve. laughter anyway its always 1985. laughter anyway, im not sure whos doing what in the white house. Can we put up the white house chore wheel . Okay, this week ivankas on domestic policy, jareds on foreign policy, and looks like the president is loading the dishwasher again. Big responsibility. A lot of responsibility. cheers and applause youve got to prerinse. But lets take a break from trump can we take a break from trump, please . Can we do that . cheers and applause and lets talk about someone who has no power in washington, mike pence. laughter the Washington Post just did a profile of mike and mrs. Mike, and they have a pretty solid thing going on. Because pence never eats alone with a woman other than his wife. And that can mean only one thing mike pence is such an outofcontrol force five boneicane, that he has to be monitored by karen pence at all times. One amstel light and hes dryhumping the bread basket. Okay . laughter oh, theres snow on the roof but theres a fire in the furnac applause pence also wont attend events featuring alcohol without his wife by his side. Hes so naughty, if you left him alone with a bottle of whiskey, he might try to have sex with it. And jim beam and jack daniels are both dudes. And he is not into gay stuff he has to pray away the mt. Gay. Thats what i hear. I dont know. Then theres the story of how the pences got engaged. While they were out feeding ducks in 1985, mike pence hollowed out two loaves of bread, placing a bottle of champagne in one and the ring box in the other for her to discover as she tore off pieces. Which is pretty impressive. That means karen can tell the difference between mike pence and a loaf of bread. Its actually a really cute engagement story. laughter its actually a very cute engagement story. And its a good thing karen was there because you do not want to leave mike pence alone with one of those seductive loaves of bread. laughter yeah. The yeast isnt the only thing rising. laughter applause mmm, mmm. piano riff also, its worth noting that the couple later got the bread shellacked. laughter of course. Shellacked bread is an indiana delicacy hey, you remember last year, when North Carolina passed a bill that forced transgender people to use the bathroom that matched the gender on their birth certificate . Basically, you needed two forms of i. D. To go number one. Well, today, North Carolina lawmakers announced a deal to repeal the bathroom bill. cheers and applause sounds like some people have been holding it for about six months. laughter that means big changes for North Carolina. Their license plates can go back to first in flight from their current license plate motto we peek under your stall. laughter and North Carolina lawmakers agreed to change the bill just ahead of a deadline set by the n. C. A. A. , which had vowed not hold events in North Carolina as long as hb2 remains law. So, really, we have College Athletes to thank for this repeal. cheers and applause really nice. Jon really, really something. Stephen and we will thank them the same way we always do by not paying them. laughter and you know, North Carolina is basketball country, so i can see why it would change minds.

Everything in one place, so you can travel the world better. band playing cheers and applause stephen john boehne jon batd stay human, everybody thats the man right there cheers and applause oh, my friend. Now, weve talked a lot about it, but all this russia stuff boils down to one simple question what is trumps relationship to russia, and when does he plan to leave it for a younger country . The usa today did a little digging and they found that trumps Business Network reached alleged russian mobsters. Okay, the mob. That explains why his hat originally said, nice america you have here. Be a shame if something not great happened to it. laughter but everything the senate or the f. B. I. Or devin nunes has learned comes from secret sources, some from inside the white house. Luckily, i have my own secret white house source. This is late show president ial leakcrets. cheers and applause now, to protect my super secret sources identity, we have dimmed the lights, and put him behind a screen. And, also, we burned off his fingerprints with a George Forman grill. The fat just melts away. Hello, anonymous source. Hello, stephen. Stephen your voice is still altered. Ah, no, i just have a cold, but i should be fine. I took a lozenge. Riccola its been a tough month for the president. Whats the mood in the white house these days . Panic. Complete panic. The staff is scared for their jobs. Stephen are they really scared theyre going to lose them . No. Theyre scared theyre going to keep them. laughter stephen all right, all right. That sounds rough. Okay, lets get to the bottom of this. Devin nunes claims to have a secret source in the white house who the New York Times claims to have revealed. Are they right . No, stephen. Devin nunes secret source is devin nunes. Stephen what . He got this information from himself . Does he have two personalities . Im not sure he has one personality. But he does sneak off to secure locations, and then, when hes alone, he draws lipstick on his hand and interrogates it. Stephen he has a relationship with his hand . Friends with benefits. Stephen are you saying the information nunes as got upis false . I didnt say that, stephen. Im just saying he pulled it from, shall we say, an undisclosed location. I mean the butt, steve. Stephen i got that part. Not a metaphor. Stephen got it. Its a great image. Now, nunes says hes afraid to share the secret documents he saw because currently redacted white house staffers might be unmasked. Are people there worried about possible unmasking . No, we unmask every saturday at our eyes wide shut parties. Trust me, steve bannon looks better in a mask. And wearing pants. There are some things you cannot unsee. Stephen there are also rumors that trump and melania are having marital problems. Is that true . Yes. The problem is that theyre married to each other. Stephen separate bedrooms . It helps when youre in separate cities. Stephen by the way, the president promised that we could expect, some very interesting items coming to the forefront over the next two weeks. Those two weeks are just about up. Any idea what hes talking about . Yes. He swallowed his keys. And theyll be coming to the forefront soon. He ate a lot of oat bran today. Stephen well, thats something to look forward to. Switching to health care, i know the republicans say theyre going to try again, but the president has to be digs appointed by the failure to repeal obamacare. Does he blame paul ryan . No, the president took a hard look in the mirror and took complete responsibility. Im just bleep with yo. laughter no, of course, of course. Trump, obviously cheers and applause trump obviously blames ryan. Stephen so is trump trying to get rid of him . Yes, the president is trying to push ryan out. Much like his keys.
