Jimmy Kimmel on Pentagon splurging on doughnuts: Is this My 600lb Defense Department?'

"Trump said yesterday that the war could end very soon, which would be encouraging, had he not also told us he'd end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. He's going to make a huge mess and walk away like it's the new toilet in the Lincoln bathroom."

"Pete Hegseth, the US defense secretary, spent $93bn of US taxpayer money last year, including millions of dollars in September on luxury food items: $2m on Alaskan king crab, $6.9m on lobster tail, $140,000 on doughnuts, $124,000 on ice-cream machines, $26,000 on sushi preparation tables and $15.1m on ribeye steak."

"People got Hitler wrong? Pretty sure he's one of the few guys we got right! Lindsey Graham compared Trump to Winston Churchill and Franklin D Roosevelt, prompting Kimmel's incredulous response to the senator's controversial historical comparisons."
