US President Donald Trump is facing renewed criticism over his recent comments dismissing Juneteenth as just another non-working holiday. The backlash comes not only from the public but also from late-night hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert, who used their platforms to ridicule the president's remarks and his absence from this year's Juneteenth celebrations.
Juneteenth, often called 'Freedom Day', commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. It is widely seen as one of the country's most culturally and historically significant holidays.
