Monday night being Emmys night, Jimmy Fallon still put on “The Tonight Show” – and had some big headlines to cover in his monologue. That included Donald Trump’s request that the government help pay for the special master he specifically requested.
But don’t worry, Fallon has a solution.In a new filing on Friday, Trump’s legal team requested “to split evenly the professional fees and expenses of the Special Master and any professionals, support staff, and expert consultants engaged at the Master’s request.”Naturally the Justice Department, which didn’t want a special master appointed in the first place, disagreed, saying that “the Government’s position is that, as the party requesting the Special Master, Plaintiff should bear the additional expense of the Special Master’s work.” Fallon had a good laugh at the situation, but then offered a solution: another Special Master.“Great, now they have to bring in a Special Master to decide who has to pay for the Special Master,” Fallon joked.The “Tonight Show” host also poked fun at revelations from Monday that the twice-impeached former president was actively planning to refuse to leave the White House after he lost the 2020 election.“And if all else failed, Trump was gonna keep kicking his feet so staffers couldn’t put on his shoes,” Fallon mocked, before flailing his legs and imitating how that would go. “He’s like ‘Ah, I’m not leaving! I’m not leaving!'”You can watch Fallon’s full monologue in the video above.

Barack Obama mocked Donald Trump’s false election claims Sunday, noting that he too lost an election, and although it “didn’t feel good,” he didn’t “make stuff up.” “We used to have arguments about policy, but now people just make stuff up: ‘I didn’t lose,'” the former President said at the L’ATTITUDE Conference in San Diego, California, hinting that he was referring to Trump (and a sizeable amount of Republicans). “I lost an election — only one — it didn’t feel good, but I didn’t say ‘no.'”Obama’s comments follow his discussion of misinformation surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine, noting that “if you were getting information from your phone, you would think all kinds of stuff was happening,” including the baseless suspicion that microchips were being planted in people or that men would experience erectile dysfunction.To further demonstrate his point, Obama pointed out NBA Hall of Famer from the San Antonio Spurs Manu Ginóbili in the San Diego audience and explained that when his team lost to the Miami Heat, the player did not claim that the opposing team didn’t make that shot or that the referees were cheating.“Instead what he did was they went back, worked harder and kicked some butt the next year,” Obama explained.
