Trump Faces Backlash Over Unpopular Iran War Deal, Knicks Parade to Release 40K Pounds of Confetti

He also jokes about a $14 million reflecting pool renovation that turned green due to algae, accompanied by a musical tribute from Tariq Trotter (1:36-3:05), and mocks a hypothetical flight scenario where Trump is more concerned with watching Toy Story than G7 summit duties (3:06-3:50).

  • New York Knicks Parade: Jimmy mentions the excitement surrounding the upcoming New York Knicks championship parade and the massive cleanup effort required for 40,000 pounds of confetti (6:11-6:37).
