-You guys, Thanksgiving is almost here.
And earlier today, President Trump pardoned
a turkey at The White House.
I read that before the ceremony,
the turkey was shampooed and dusted with baby powder
to make him glisten.
It's very interesting, because every morning,
The White House staff does the same thing to Trump.
[ As Trump ] A little -- a little on this side.
Let's take a look at the moment that Trump pardoned the turkey.
-Peas, I hereby grant you a full pardon.
-Yeah. Then he said, "I also declare you
my new Attorney General.
Peas. Peas is the new Attorney General."
I saw that after Trump pardoned the turkey,
he immediately flew down to Florida for Thanksgiving.
So I guess that means the turkey
was left all alone at The White House.
We actually have a feed from inside The White House.
Could we see how the turkey is doing?

-Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness.
-"Turkey Business." -That's right.
Trump left Washington to spend Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago.
When they heard that, every White House staffer said,
"Now, that's something I'm really thankful for.
Yes. Whew! Enjoy. Take your time on that one.
Get seconds."
But Thanksgiving with the Trumps is great.
Guests have the option of white meat or even whiter meat.
And it's just -- A lot...
Guys, this Thursday is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
I love that parade. [ Cheers and applause ]
I love it.
I saw that the weather is
expected to be very cold and windy.
Yeah, but NBC has a plan if they can't fly the balloons.
They're going to show last year's parade
and hope nobody notices.
There it is.
Oh, and I heard that today is National Absurdity Day,
a day where people celebrate crazy, absurd, or weird things.
It's a pretty interesting holiday.
Higgins, are you doing anything for Absurdity Day?
-No, not this year. -Maybe next year, you'll do it.
Some news out of Washington.
It came out that Ivanka Trump used her own
personal e-mail account to send
hundreds of official work messages.
When she found out, Hillary Clinton
started mashing potatoes with her bare hands.
And get this.
Officials in the U.K. say that a woman --
[ Baby crying ] You guys hear that?
It's the news. It's just been worked up.
So worked up lately. It still must be awake.
If you guys are cool with that, I would just like to
take a moment to put the news to bed.
It's time for "Good Night News."

Good night, TSA, ending your frozen-turkey ban.
I hope mine defrosts by the time that I land.

Good night, David's Bridal big bankruptcy mess.
I guess too many women said no to the dress.
Good night, Instagram cracking down on fake likes.

And, finally, good night, Ivanka Trump
using personal e-mail for business.
Or, as Hillary put it, "It feels just like Christmas."

Experts say that standing desks are overrated
and don't do much for your health.
When they heard that, everyone with a standing desk was like...
And, finally, I saw that tomorrow is called
Weed Wednesday because marijuana sales skyrocket
the day before Thanksgiving.
You'll know you're stoned at Thanksgiving
when you go to loosen your belt buckle

You guys, we have a great show tonight.
Give it up for The Roots!
