The president sent ICE to airports and threatened to obliterate Iran's power plants, then backed off after talks with Iran that Iran said are not happening, then blamed Pete Hegseth for the war.

And he also spent the weekend posting a bunch of deranged stuff to his social media accounts.

For more on this, it's time for "A Closer Look." Over the weekend, Robert Mueller passed away.

Now, you might expect the president of the United States to show some decorum and decency when a former public servant or any American dies,

but that's because you forgot Donald Trump was the president.

You saw "Project Hail Mary" over the weekend,

and you were just so happy that Ryan Gosling brought back the magic and the wonder of the cinema that you forgot about the reality of the world.

And then you walked out of the theater, and you looked at your phone,

and you saw a notification from President Donald J.

and you said, "Aww, me." The president has just posted untrue social following the death of former FBI Director Robert Mueller.

He can no longer hurt innocent people." Ugh, you sound like an aging Hollywood starlet who hasn't left her mansion in five years finding out her husband just died.

Can't go to the funeral so I can spit on his grave.

What's really galling to me is when Trump's cronies demand that we have limitless patience and understanding for him, even though he has none for anyone else.

Do you think it's appropriate for the president of the United States to celebrate the death of an American citizen, someone who's a Bronze Star, Purple Heart recipient,

Uh, Kristen, I was with the president in a green room at Davos,

and there was a video playing of the what may have been an illegal raid on his home at Mar-a-Lago.

They are going through his wife's wardrobe, and I watched the look in his eye,

and I think that neither one of us can understand what has been done to the president and to his family.

Is it appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of any American citizen, Mr.

Again, I think that, given what has been done to President Trump and his family, it is impossible for either of us to understand what he has been through.

So you don't think that there's anything wrong with the post saying, "Good, Robert Mueller's dead"?

Again, I think that the we should all have a little empathy for what has been done to him and his family.

Is this the same family that made billions of dollars on some crypto coin the last year?

How will they ever find time to spend at all?

but we have to tiptoe around his feelings like he's a rabid dog during a thunderstorm.

and if he bites you, say, "I understand where you're coming from, Cujo," and then get his to the hospital as fast as you can, because you definitely have rabies.

This is "Ma Ga in One Sense." Empathy for me, but not for you.

The hypocrisy shouldn't be surprising, considering the same people who spent years complaining about celebrities and participation trophies now line up behind a celebrity who collects participation trophies like they're Labubus.

There was a video playing of the what may have been an illegal raid on his home at Mar-a-Lago.

They are going through his wife's wardrobe.

Oh, no, not her prize collection of hats that double his lampshades.

You look like you're at Barney's funeral.

Now we can no longer hurt people with his stupid songs.

So maybe you're saying to yourself, "Fine, the president's obnoxious.

He's not someone I'd want to hang out with,

but at least he's got the government humming like a Ferrari." And, by the way, I know, if you're watching this show, that's not actually what you're saying.

It's just a little rhetorical trick we do to set up a clip package.

Everything's running smoothly and going great.

Markets are tumbling right now, and the oil is surging.

Oil prices soaring to their highest level since 2022.

The gallon of gas now up nearly $0.50 in a week.

War in Iran has caused some concerns about inflation.

We've lost jobs four of the last seven months.

Travel chaos—and chaos is a word across the country—as airports struggle with TSA staffing shortages.

There is no end in sight for the continued problems at airports across the country.

Hours-long security lines are becoming the norm.

The DHS shutdown is causing TSA workers to go without pay,

and leading to workers quitting or having to call out sick.

Wait times at Atlanta and airports across the country are not just long today, but

Houston, Atlanta—and we're hearing about similar scenes at LaGuardia this morning.

It's TSA lines that last for up to two hours.

If I was flying back to New York and I was on a TSA line that was two hours long, I would simply call my family and tell them, "I live here now.

That's where I would live, wherever I happen to be.

I have stand-up shows in Missouri next month, and I'm already looking at houses in the St.

Louis area on Zillow." Did you guys know you can buy a house that doesn't share a wall with a neighbor who practices the trumpet at 7:00 a.m.?

We're going to keep doing the show, but they're going to have to change the backdrop.

He's sending the best of the best to help—an elite squad of civil servants who've been through rigorous training with impeccable qualifications.

President Trump says ICE will deploy to U.S. airports starting today to assist with the TSA.

Can you tell us anything about how this would work with ICE showing up at the airports?

We're finalizing plans today, but, you know, there's a lot of things the TSA does that doesn't require, like, specialized training, right?
