THE NEW YORK TIMES IS REPORTING THAT DONALD TRUMP IS

EXPECTED TO FIRE HIS SECRETARY OF STATE REX TILLERSON IN THE

COMING WEEKS.

OR AS REX TILLERSON IS CALLING IT, A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE.

(LAUGHTER) >> James: HONESTLY, TILLERSON

SAYS HE'S NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE RUMORS.

AND AS THE FORMER HEAD OF EXXON-MOBIL, HE'S USED TO

IGNORING LOTS OF LEAKS.

(APPLAUSE) >> James: HE CAN'T STOP THEM

I'M SORRY!

(APPLAUSE) >> James: IT'S NOT REALLY

SURPRISING THAT TRUMP WOULD FIRE TILLERSON.

IF YOU REMEMBER, REX TILLERSON, OVER THE SUMMER, REPORTEDLY

CALLED TRUMP A, AND I QUOTE, A (BLEEP) MORON.

I DON'T HAVE A JOKE HERE, I JUST WANTED TO RELIVE THAT FOND

MEMORY.

MEANWHILE, THE CO-AUTHOR OF DONALD TRUMP'S BOOK, "THE ART OF

THE DEAL," SAYS THAT ACCORDING TO TWO SECRET SOURCES, WHITE

HOUSE STAFFERS ARE STARTING TO EXPRESS CONCERN OVER THE

PRESIDENT'S MENTAL HEALTH.

WOW, THAT'S SOME GREAT INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM RIGHT

THERE.

OR HE COULD HAVE JUST CHECKED TWITTER!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) >> James: HERE'S THE THING.

THEY'RE NOT ONLY WORRIED ABOUT TRUMP'S MENTAL

HEALTH, BUT THERE'S ALSO CONCERN ABOUT DONALD TRUMP'S PHYSICAL

HEALTH.

[ Laughter ] >> James: I DON'T HAVE A

BETTER PUNCH LINE FOR THAT JOKE.

THAT SOMEONE SAYING THEY'RE WORRIED ABOUT HIS PHYSICAL SELF.

YEAH, THEY'RE WORRIED HE MIGHT LAST A FULL TERM!

(LAUGHTER) >> James: I WISH I COULD HAVE

SEEN THE FACE TRUMP MADE WHEN HE HEARD

PEOPLE WERE SAYING HE'S CRAZY.

IT WAS PROBABLY SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

YEAH, COMPLETELY SANE, COMPLETELY SANE.

MOVING ON.

ANYONE HERE HAVE PLANS TO TRAVEL OVER THE HOLIDAYS?

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) >> James: WELL, YOU MIGHT

HAVE TO CHECK YOUR FLIGHTS BECAUSE AMERICAN

AIRLINES JUST EXPERIENCED A COMPUTER GLITCH THAT HAS ALLOWED

ALL THEIR PILOTS TO TAKE VACATION AT THE SAME TIME,

MEANING THAT THOUSANDS OF FLIGHTS IN DECEMBER HAVE NO ONE

TO FLY THEM.

THIS IS ALL PART OF AMERICAN AIRLINES' NEW CAMPAIGN TO MAKE

THE REST OF THEIR SERVICES SEEM LESS AWFUL.

"OKAY, FINE.

I'LL PAY EXTRA FOR MY BAGS, BUT ONLY IF I GET A PILOT."

THIS COMPUTER GLITCH COULD REALLY SCREW THINGS UP FOR

PEOPLE FLYING ON CHRISTMAS.

IT LIST GAVE TIME OFF TO 15,000 PILOTS AND EIGHT TINY REINDEER.

(APPLAUSE) >> James: COME ON!

EVEN IF THEY DO FIX THIS, WHO WANTS A PILOT THAT JUST GOT

THEIR VACATION FORCIBLY TAKEN AWAY?

"THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN SPEAKING.

STRAP IN, BITCHES.

IT'S GONNA BE A BUMPY RIDE!" AND FINALLY, THIS WAS AN

INTERESTING STORY OUT OF THE WORLD OF SCIENCE.

HAVE YOU GUYS HEARD ABOUT THIS ROBOT SOPHIA?

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS ROBOT?

SHE'S ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST ADVANCED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

ANDROIDS.

WELL, RECENTLY SHE ANNOUNCED, ON HER OWN, THAT SHE WANTS TO HAVE

A BABY.

THAT MAY SEEM WEIRD, BUT I BET SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE'S TALKING

ABOUT.

HER BIOLOGICAL CLOCK IS AN ACTUAL CLOCK.

IF THIS HAPPENS, IT'S GONNA BE A HUGE BLOW TO SINGLE WOMEN WITH

OVERBEARING MOTHERS OUT THERE.

"SO, I SEE ROBOTS ARE HAVING BABIES BEFORE YOU."

CAN WE SEE A PICTURE OF SOPHIA AGAIN?

SHE WANTS TO HAVE A BABY?

I DON'T KNOW.

I THINK SHE SHOULD WANT THE BACK OF HER HEAD TO BE FINISHED

FIRST.

LET'S COMPLETE THE ADULT ROBOTS BEFORE WE START MAKING BABY

ROBOTS.

NOW THAT THIS NEWS HAS BROKEN, I UNDERSTAND SOPHIA ALREADY HAS

SEVERAL POTENTIAL DONORS LINING UP.
