The big news overnight is that (surprise) President Trump knew about his personal lawyer’s non-disclosure agreement with adult film actress Stormy Daniels, and in fact reimbursed him for it.

The revelation came in an interview on Fox News with the president’s new attorney, Rudy Giuliani. Trump looked to change the conversation by announcing the release of three Americans long held in North Korea. And trade talks in China do not appear to be headed for success, yet the growth and integration of capital markets continues. Lastly, the American president has been officially nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Best of late night.

“7-Eleven has announced they’re going to be offering healthier options for their customers. That’s nice. The C.E.O. said, ‘We want our customers to live to be as old as one of our hot dogs.’”
— Conan O’Brien

On President’ Trump’s original Doctor letter praising his health:

“His doctor wrote a letter calling Trump the healthiest president ever, but now the doctor is saying Trump dictated the letter himself. Trump was like, ‘Yes, I dictated it, and I am one of the healthiest dictators ever elected.’”
— Jimmy Fallon

“I guess that explains these other doctors’ notes, like this one from Trump’s dentist: ‘Most teeth ever. Much longer tongue than Obama.’ And his podiatrist’s report: ‘Feet of a god, unless there’s a draft, in which case bone spurs. Sad!’”
— Stephen Colbert
On a Nobel Peace Prize for Trump:

“A group of House Republicans has nominated President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize. As evidence, they pointed out that Trump has managed to avoid an all-out war with North Korea, and Melania.”
— Conan O’Brien
