Welcome to Best of Late Night, a rundown of the previous night’s highlights that lets you sleep — and lets us get paid to watch comedy. Here are the 50 best movies on Netflix right now.
Fake News
On Wednesday, Jimmy Kimmel, who’s based in Los Angeles, mocked the idea that protests against immigration raids have turned the city into “some kind of totalitarian hellscape” — a notion pushed by President Trump (and some cable news outlets) as he sent in Marines and the National Guard.
“He wants there to be a war going on here, and he doesn’t care who gets hurt in it. There’s no riot outside. We have more so-called ‘unrest’ here when one of our teams wins a championship.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“So, Los Angeles is on fire again. It’s like déjà vu, the French words for ‘Newsom sucks.’” — GREG GUTFELD
“California governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass denounced the federal immigration raids. So now they don’t want California to have ICE or water.” — GREG GUTFELD
“Newsom showed his statesmanship by tweeting frantically about Trump. For Newsom, this wasn’t violent chaos, it was a campaign ad: ‘I’m Gavin Newsom, and I approve this riot.’” — GREG GUTFELD
”According to ICE, the migrants arrested in L.A. included convicted sex offenders and drug dealers. Wow, no wonder so many people called in sick at Nickelodeon.” — GREG GUTFELD
“They call trespassing the Capitol an insurrection, but when liberals set a city on fire, suddenly they become Stevie Wonder — and I don’t mean talented.” — GREG GUTELD
