Donald Trump is very mad that the Supreme Court
struck down his tariffs,
but his administration also scored a huge victory
when FBI Director Kash Patel arrested key figures
in the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking scandal.
And whoops, sorry, I read that wrong.
He was partying in Italy with the U.S. men's hockey team.
That's always who you want to party with first
when you win a championship, the director of the FBI.
I remember when the Red Sox won the World Series in 2004,
and the first person who got a champagne shower
For more on this, it's time for A Closer Look.

A lot happened during our two-week Olympic hiatus,
but I want to open today by playing a clip
from Donald Trump's comments this morning
at what C-SPAN described as an event honoring families
of victims of foreign criminal organizations.
And if you're thinking, oh, if that's what the event was,
I'm sure he talked about people shoveling snow in New York.
Well, then, you're better at this than I am.
You know, the mayor of New York, and he's a very nice person.
I met him, but his ideology is not too good.
But we're having a massive snowstorm right now,
and I heard that he's asked people
to come out and help shovel the snow.
Okay, so you get a shovel, and you start shoveling, right?
What the hell? You're not going to help too much,
but you can help.
What do you mean you're not going to help?
Have you never heard of shoveling snow before?
Very surprising, because you dance
So, that's the first time any of us here saw that.
So, Trump may not thrive in winter weather,
but as for people who do,
congratulations to our American winter Olympians,
including Jordan Stoltz, Michaela Schifrin,
Alyssa Liu, the men's and women's Olympic hockey teams.
For me, personally, the highlight was
bobsledder Laina Myers-Taylor's win,
because I've always said,
if a Myers is going to win a gold medal,
it sure as hell isn't going to be me.
And it sure as hell wasn't going to be in the bobsled.
If you want to know how a former
Weekend Update anchor would do in the bobsled,
please listen to a few seconds
of current Weekend Update anchor,
Colin Jost screaming during a practice run.
Aah!
I love that he finally found something scarier
than reading a joke Che wrote about his wife.
Now, American athletes were well-received in Italy,
but American non-athletes were met
with a less rosy reception, like J.D. Vance,
who appeared onscreen for only a few seconds,
but still received what felt like hours' worth of boos.
A winter Olympic gold medal in an individual sport.
What an honor for her.
There is the vice president, J.D. Vance,
and his wife, Usha.
Ooh, those are not boos for him.
Whistling, jeering, some applause.
Not a long shot of him on the screen there.
Booing J.D. Vance is such a reflex
All right, just one more thing, Mr. Johnson.
Take a quick look at this picture.
Boo! All right.
See you next year.
This administration is so unpopular
that seeing the vice president's face
is now like a jump scare in a horror movie.
Hey, guys, anyone in that creepy shed?
Oh, God. Oh, God, what's that noise?
Aah!
He uses the same eyeliner as Pennywise.
Now, it's not surprising to me that Vance would get booed,
given that he's one of the most unpopular vice presidents
But I guess it was a surprise to his boss.
Did you see that the vice president got booed
during the opening ceremony, though?
What do you make of that sort of frosty?
The vice president got booed during the opening ceremony.
What do you make of that frosty?
No. Is that true? Is that right?
Yeah.
It's surprising, because people like him.
Well, I mean, he is in a foreign country,
you know, in all fairness,
but he doesn't get booed in this country.
Couple fact checks. First, people don't like him.
Second, he gets booed a lot in this country.
And third, you for sure saw it.
You watch more television than any other person alive.
You are a human DVR.
The T in Tevo stands for Trump.
It's very obnoxious if you're wondering
what the other three stand for.
By the way, I don't know why it's so surprising to you
that Vance would get booed,
given that pretty much everywhere you go,
you get booed.
It's a night of drama at the Kennedy Center.
Before the show and during intermission,
some other audience members clapped for the president.
Others booed him and shouted felon.
Football fans could be heard booing President Trump
during his appearance at the Lions and Commanders game.
He was there to swear in new military members.
Donald Trump ventured out from his Bedminster Golf Club
just to get booed at today's FIFA Club
World Cup Final in New Jersey.
The president decided he wanted to attend
Sunday's men's singles final.
The president of the United States was booed.
President Trump met with protesters
while dining out in D.C. for the first time.
It's such an art to find the perfect quiet moment
when a crowd is booing to shout,
"[Bleep], you," at the president.
They absolutely nailed that one. Perfect execution.
Can we see the scores from the judges?
Very well done. There you go.
And if Trump is wondering why he's getting booed everywhere,
the reason is simple.
He's just very, very unpopular.
Trump's net approval rating,
Look at this. Okay, we're at this point.
Look at that. Negative 27 points.
My goodness gracious.
The snow is up to the knees here in New York City,
and Trump seems to be well underneath it at this point.
Love the snowstorm tie-in.
Was this segment co-sponsored by The Weather Channel?
But don't worry, Donald.
You're in a hole, but you can dig yourself out of it, right?
And if you were to dig yourself out of it,
how would you go about that?
So you get a shovel and you start shoveling, right?
What the hell? You're not gonna help too much.
Trump is reeling with historically low approval ratings.
One of the biggest reasons
is his massively unpopular tariff policy,
which was just dealt a huge blow by the Supreme Court.
Breaking news.
The Supreme Court handing President Trump
a major loss ruling he does not have the power
to enact the sweeping tariffs he unveiled last April.
A devastating blow to President Trump's economic agenda.
The Supreme Court ruling
Trump lashing out at the justices,
calling them unpatriotic and disloyal.
I was surprised because I thought
that what we did was number one according to...
I mean, I read the paragraphs.
I read very well.
Great comprehension.
I read everything there is to read,
and I said, you can't lose this case.
Man, that's how you know someone's a book lover.
When they read all the paragraphs.
The other day, I was reading in bed with my wife,
and when I finished, she said, how was it?
And I said, I read all the paragraphs.
All right, great comprehension.
The words were all in the right order,
and I enjoyed the sentences a great deal.
Sounds like an alien pretending to be a high school sophomore.
All right, Kevin, tell us about Catcher in the Rye.
I enjoyed the book.
It contained many human words printed on the skin of a tree.
When I was done comprehending all of the paragraphs,
I consumed the book through my mouth hole.
Speaking of aliens, Trump also made news over the break
when he hinted he would release files
related to the existence of extraterrestrials.
Last night, President Trump posted online
saying he has directed the relevant departments
to release files related to alien life and UFOs,
explaining that this decision is based
on the tremendous interest shown.
Oh, that sounds exciting.
I'm going to read all of the paragraphs.
And if you're wondering why he would release that now,
I point you to a clip from this show a few months ago.
I honestly think we're one more Epstein story away from Trump
just announcing that UFOs are real.
And look, look, I do not have the ability
to predict the future, but just in case I have magic powers,
let me just say, because you know more is coming,
we're one Epstein story away from Trump saying,
I don't think I'm good at this job.
I don't want to do it anymore.
I'm tired all the time.
Nobody likes me.
And on top of that, my hand is so f----- up, you guys.
That's why I can't shovel snow.
And now we just sit back and wait.
Trump's FBI director is partying in Italy
while his administration reels from historically
terrible approval ratings and a major setback
from a Supreme Court that's dominated
by his own hand-picked justices.
Trump is basically a guy going downhill
on a bobsled screaming...
Oh!
Holy s----!
This has been A Closer Look.
