God bless America, and how’s everybody?

The Comedy Store enlisted me to host an all-star comedian memorial tribute to the great Mitzi Shore headlined by Byron Allen, who recently bought The Weather Channel for $300 million. The weather is the latest in edgy comedy. All CNN ever covers is Stormy.

President Trump said the GOP will hold the House this fall on the back of his successes in office. It’s not all sunshine. Just when everything seems to be going his way, Melania checks into the hospital for a kidney procedure and lists the Obamas as her emergency contact before surgery.

Vladimir Putin reviewed 100,000 Russian troops marching through Red Square in Moscow to mark Victory in Europe Day. They’re getting those happy boots again. Then Putin released a tourism commercial inviting you to visit Russia before Russia visits you.
