Taylor Swift might have to get back to work, but her BF Travis Kelce is still in vacay mode, and his personal party train's pulled into Louisville for the Kentucky Derby.

Not that TK can't handle the partying on his own! He and The Chainsmokers have history ... as the duo performed at one of the Chiefs' post-Super Bowl celebrations in Las Vegas back in February.
He and Patrick Mahomes seemed right at home on stage as the duo was spinning ... and the Chiefs stars showed off the Lombardi Trophy.

Maher's dismantling of the AG went down on Friday night's episode of his show, 'Real Time' ... and while he had plenty of disdain for Trump and his hush money trial in NYC, the comedian unloaded most of his ire on Garland for moving at a glacial pace to even indict Trump.
Remember, Trump's current trial is in NY state court for allegedly falsifying business records related to hush money paid to Stormy Daniels-- and Maher makes it clear, in pretty hilarious fashion, why Trump should be found guilty. Gotta tip our hat on the El Chapo drug mule joke. 😂
