Summary
Pope Leo XIV would make a great hang on April 20th, people are concerned about President Trump after he made several depressing social media posts, and FBI Director Kash Patel is fighting back against reporting that he is getting drunk on the job. Acclaimed actor Don Cheadle says he prefers not to know when famous faces are going to be in the audience at his Broadway show. “Proof” is at the Booth Theater through July 19th, find tickets at proofbroadway.com. Jake Tapper reacts to President Trump’s complaint that CNN and other news organizations aren’t praising his negotiating prowess during the war against Iran, and presents Lord Of The Rings superfan Stephen Colbert with a painting of our host as Gollum to celebrate their many years of friendship. “The Lead with Jake Tapper” airs weeknights on CNN.
