Biden’s European Vacation
President Biden landed in Italy on Wednesday for the G7 Summit, his second trip to Europe in a week.
“He went to France last week, now he’s off to Italy,” Jimmy Fallon said. “Biden’s like your friend who is somehow posting pics from Europe all summer.”
“His staff wants to make sure he’s as jet-lagged as possible for the first presidential debate.” — JIMMY FALLON
“Usually when an 81-year-old does that much traveling through Europe, it’s on a Viking river cruise.” — JIMMY FALLON
“Yeah, the president is in Italy for the G7 Summit, or as Fox News put it: ‘Biden Flees Country After Hunter Convicted.’” — JIMMY FALLON
The Punchiest Punchlines (Impossible Edition)
“A guy named Joey Chestnut — he has the world record for eating 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes — has been banned from the competition this year because he signed an endorsement deal with a vegan meat company, which in and of itself is insane. It’s like if Cookie Monster signed a deal with celery.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
“It was announced yesterday that Joey Chestnut will not compete in this year’s Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest because he has a deal with the vegan food company Impossible Foods. Incidentally, his record for those is still just one.” — SETH MEYERS
“This is like barring LeBron James from basketball or Aaron Rodgers from podcasting.” — STEPHEN COLBERT
“Ugh, come on, Nathan’s! You’re going to ban Joey Chestnut just for taking a sponsorship deal? He’s got a family to feed — and feed and feed and feed.” — JORDAN KLEPPER
“But Joey Chestnut said he’s ‘gutted’ by the decision, and his fans are furious. And it’s disappointing, for sure. The good news is for Joey, he might not die quite as soon. He might actually live through the Fifth of July this year.” — JIMMY KIMMEL
