to dancing with the stars. this morning, president trump woke up, tweeted from the toilet, which means we get six more weeks of spring. what a day in washington today. fbi director james comey, remember james comey, the guy who many believe handed donald trump the election. well director comey this morning did not do the president any favors. officially confirming that they are investigating potential ties between the russian government and the trump for president campaign. >> i have been authorized by the department of justice to confirm the fbi as part of our counterintelligence mission is investigating the russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the trump campaign and the russian government, and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and russia's efforts. >> jimmy: i know trump doesn't watch cnn. if he find out about this -- that guy is so fired. surprising, moments after comey confirmed the investigation, trump held a press conference and finally came clean about his involvement with russia. >> i am a traitor. >> whoa. that is a bigly -- director comey also weighed in on trump's claim that obama wire tapped him at his office. that didn't go trump's way either. >> director comey was the president's statement that obama had his wires tapped in trump tire a true statement? >> with respect to the president's tweets, about alleged wiretapping directed at him by the prior administration, i have no information that supports those tweets. and we have looked carefully inside the fbi the department of justice has asked me to share with you, that the answer is the same for the department of justice and all its components. the department has no information that supports those tweets. >> jimmy: imagine working at department of justice, having the boss tell you, i have some tweets i need you to look into. the fbi and justice department have no evidence to support trump's story. that means donald trump really did just see something on fox news, assumed it was true, and ran with it. i turn on fox news this afternoon. after three minutes of watching, i saw a commercial for walk-in bathtub, and lemon pepper tuna in a pouch. so, this is where the president is getting his information. this fake news thing, this isn't just a strategy, he really doesn't know which news is fake or not. somebody should make sure he knows game of thrones isn't real, so he doesn't start working on a dem to protect us from dragons. even with all this unprecedented madness going on, this is what we are focused on. type fbi director comey's name into google, the number one most searched phrase, before russia, before trump, james comey height. more than anything, we want to know how tall he is. president trump wasn't busy googling james comey today going berserk on twitter this morning. he tweeted what about all the contact with the clinton campaign and the russians? also is it true the dnc would not let the fbi in to look? we don't know. why are you asking us? you are the president. donald trump knows he is in trouble, he immediately, he fires back. kind of like when your wife catches you sexting with another woman, going, what were you doing looking at my phone. meanwhile, while all this is going on, president obama is in tahi tahiti, playing hackysack and making a necklace of pooka shells on the beach. no idea what is happening. trump's approval rating down to 37%. bill clinton had to do weird stuff with cigars to get it to 37%. trump has the highest low approval rating of any president ever. [ applause ] he met with, bill gates today, it was, an historic meeting. america's two worst haircuts in the oval office together for the first time. they reportedly talked about their shared commitment to finding and stopping disease outbreaks around the world. you know, that's great. but if bill gates wanted to do some good he should have grabbed trump's phone and locked him out of his twitter account. i guess trump had enough of this sitting in the white house thing. he is back to basics. at a rally in louisville tonight. slowed him down to half-speed, for tonight's edition of" kgs drunk donald >> we could have been watching a basketball game. so what happened? what happened? that's all right. ♪ ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> that's what we should be doing. saying hi to people. when all the mud gets stirred up on a day lake today, white house press secretary, sean spicer, he has to come in with a bucket. go out there every day to explain what the hell is going on. this one especially was a difficult afternoon. to lighten the mood we put this together. a curated assortment of stumbles and bumbles from sporty spicer. >> guys, good afternoon. good afternoon. yesterday the president, president, trump, the president issued a memorandum. outlining executive branch hiring. the president made it clear throughout the, throughout his time. the president will depart from this white house to the winter white house, welcome and confirm, swear in, secretary tillerson. secretary, with the, the, as, the prosecuted. the pro law enforcement. humanitarian imperative. this meeting was an important, important, economic, economically. lowering drug prices. first order, order. in that, these, brave men and women. he appointed a, tough, calling for tough vetted individuals from travelers, large physical barrier. good morning. good afternoon. not my fault! ♪ >> jimmy: well, a powerful speaker. today was a -- very good day for tom brady. they found his missing super bowl jersey. found it in mexico of all places. reported it had been stolen by a member of the foreign press after the super bowl. this its a photo of the man who took the shirt. oh, no, wait a minute. that's you. you didn't take the shirt? >> no, i didn't. >> jimmy: the man who is actually suspected of the theft is former director of the mexican newspaper. they say he used media credential to get access to the locker room. they think he may have stolen one of vaughn miller's helmets from the superbem last year. a fairly serious crime. the jersey worth $500,000. the fbi played a rolen recovering it. the morning meetings of the fbi must be very strange right now. any news on the president conspireing with the russian government? and where are we on tom brady's laundry? but, did get it back. finally something good has happened to tom brady. and i think we are all happy about that. this is another kind of football. from south africa, where a player from ghana won the award for man of the match. followed by a medal for husband of the year. >> i always wished to win one of these. and i got it. so, thank you very much for, for this, for giving me this. and i appreciate my friend also. my wife, and my girlfriend. i mean, my wife, sorry to say. i'm sorry. very sorry, my wife. i love you so much.
