Jon Stewart Calls Out GOP Disaster Relief Hypocrisy _ Klepper on Hegseth _ TikTok · Mic Drop Comedy

• 0:04
  Speaker 1: All news pales in comparison to what is occurring right
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: now in the state of California, a horrifying inferno whose
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: danger even now has not passed. But even amongst the
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: tragedy and sadness, there have been incredible moments of human
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: compassion and kindness. Neighbors looking after neighbors. Charitable contributions pouring
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: into GoFundMe from all areas of the world. Mainly the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: tireless and heroic actions of firefighters in the California region.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Some of them prisoners fighting with incredible bravery and tenacity.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Rescue workers from all over the country. Rescue workers from
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: outside the country. Rescue workers from Mexico!
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Mexico!
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Damn your open borders, Biden! I guess they are sending
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: us their best.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Ugh!
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: You want to know how bad it is in California
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: right now? Here's how bad it is. President Volodymyr Zelensky
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: has offered to send 150 Ukrainian first responders to help
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: battle the massive wildfires. We're so.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: That a country that has been relentlessly bombed for almost
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: three years was like, you poor bastards. But it is
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, of
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: man's ability across cultural and political and religious lines in
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: times of crisis to appeal to our better angels. As
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Archbishop Desmond Tutu once said, we are made for goodness
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: and love and compassion. Or, as our own president-elect put it.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: Trump shared a meme on Truth Social of fires raging
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: behind the Hollywood sign, which was photoshopped to read, Trump
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: was right.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Appropriate. Thank you, Mr. President. I'd almost forgotten your penchant
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: for casual cruelty and dick foolery.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Flames!
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Nice touch on the graphics. Surely you won't be content
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: with just trolling those in dire need. Surely you also
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: see this as a merch-portunity.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: The New York Post posted these images of President-elect Donald
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: Trump driving a golf cart wearing a Trump-was-right-about-everything hat.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Trump was right about almost everything. I wouldn't say he
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: was right about the outfit choice. Rule of thumb. Never
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: dress in the same color scheme as the upholstery of
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: your own vehicle. Unless, wait, perhaps Trump has reached his
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: highest form, part man, part golf cart. And apparently, all cholesterol.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I guess RFK Jr., stat, okay. But Trump is going
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to troll. The problem now is Republicans appear to want
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: to attach their I told you so's as a condition
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: of funding California's disaster relief. I expect that there will
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: be strings attached to money that is ultimately approved. I
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: think there should probably be conditions on that. That's my
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: personal view. Before we put funds funds into place, we've
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: got to find out exactly how we're going to hold
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: these leaders accountable and what sort of policy changes are required.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: There can't be a blank check on this.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: They don't deserve anything, to be honest with you, unless
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: they show us they're going to make some changes.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: What the f * * * is wrong with you? Really, Senator?
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: From Alabama? The state near the bottom in math, reading,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: and test scores. Next time you get hit by a hurricane,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: why don't we have a little parent-teacher conference to see
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: that if you got your scores up, you would get
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: the money. Or actually, let's not do it because you'll
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: get the money anyway because we're not psychos. That is psychotic.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: There's something wrong with you.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: And you know what?
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing. I can do the Daily Show thing.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I can run down all the congresspeople and senators on
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: the right calling for conditions on disaster aid that absolutely
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: had the opposite view when it was their state on
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the line. We need to do everything we can.
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: We have citizens that are literally going to get worse
• 4:51
  Speaker 7: by the day.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Shut the f * * * up. Because... I can
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: do it, but it doesn't even matter. I'm not even
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: going to do it. Because red states are always the
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: tragic victims of circumstance outside of their control. And Democrats
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: always vote for their aid, whereas blue state disasters are
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: a function of their flawed morality and policy. And if
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: we help blue state survivors, well, what message will that send?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: What lesson will they learn? But fine, if strings must
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: be attached, what be the strings?
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: The problem with California is forestry management.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. It's true. It's true. The management of the forest.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: You have to rake the leaves and shut down the
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: illegal elf tree cookie factory. I understand. And what a great,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: utterly anodyne suggestion. I mean, what forest couldn't be managed better?
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you've been to a forest lately, chaos.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: It's chaos. It's dirt and leaves and what is that?
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Bear shit, I'm sure.
• 5:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I want to see the manager. Okay, so we get
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the money. If we have better forest management, everybody then
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: gets food and clothes. What else?
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: They've not done the necessary work to make sure there's
• 6:07
  Speaker 8: fresh water flowing into key areas.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, water. Yeah, no question. No question. Water for the fire.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get that message to the firefighters. Tootsweet.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Water is so important. Water is a terrific fire... I
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: don't even want to say the R word. But I...
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: But as I always say, what do you got there, Mr. Fire?
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Nothing like water. Water works on all kinds of fire,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: except for one kind of fire, but I don't know
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: which one that is. But odds are with you. Point taken.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: But forest management and... And get some water up here,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and then your children may have blankets. Um... These are
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: all great pointers on how to mitigate fires, and I'm
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: sure California has absolutely been trying. Water and forest management,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: maybe not good enough, but they have it. There's one
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: thing you might not be considering as you criticize them,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: and that's this. I don't know what kind of a
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: system you can develop that completely mitigates the risk of fire,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: plus drought conditions, plus 60 to 80 mile per hour winds,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: plus delicious wood. Look at this. Look what's happening right there.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Do you see this? Fire to tornado. Rake your way
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: out of that. You understand? I love the blame game.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I love the blame game. I play it all the time.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: But the fires aren't out. And the fire to tornado.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: The only thing that would stop that is the absence
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: of oxygen. Which, if I'm being honest, we could do.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Hear me out. There's something called a cloche. A cloche
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: is a covering. You've probably seen it in pie shops.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: You can put a cloche... Now, if I... Just very quickly. Guys,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: that's the continental-sized cloche that we had on a previous
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: program suggested for immigration reform. We need a little more casual. Guys,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: can you check on the sideboard behind the gravy frigates?
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: It's not, if it's not there, it's under the sink.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: The California, that's it. The California cloche. Airtight. It's the
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: best way to smother a Los Angeles sized fire. And
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: if you live in New Jersey, keep a pie fresh
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: in a diner for eight to nine years. The cloche.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I am going to make cloche happen. years from now.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And then I'm going to get a hat that says,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Don Stewart was right about everything.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Hey, look.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Hey, all you idiots are dead. Told you so. But
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: these people don't actually care. They're not actually trying to
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: find a solution. They're just trying to work their pet
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: issues into this tragic situation. It's confusing. But thankfully, some
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: people are being more explicit in their conspiracy theories.
• 9:25
  Speaker 9: On X, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene asked, why don't they
• 9:28
  Speaker 9: use geoengineering, like cloud seeding, to bring rain down on
• 9:32
  Speaker 9: the wildfires in California? They know how to do it.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Who is they, Margaret?
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: Who is they?
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Are you perhaps referring to the they-ish people? Is that
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: what it is, Margaret? The very same people that control
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the area on fire?
• 9:59
  Speaker 10: Why?
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Would we, they, destroy the very industry we, they, control?
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: When we also have the means to bring the rains.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: We have space lasers and we can bring rain. The
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: clues are there, Margaret. Alex knows.
• 10:22
  Speaker 11: Alex Jones wrote that Los Angeles fires are part of
• 10:25
  Speaker 11: a larger globalist plot to wage economic warfare and deindustrialize
• 10:30
  Speaker 11: the United States before triggering total collapse.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Oh. All right, well, it's Alex Jones. He is certainly
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: known for this type of thinking. I don't believe anyone
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: is going to be taken in by this type of post.
• 10:45
  Speaker 11: Elon Musk responded to that post by writing, True.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Now I feel sad. But unfortunately, a lot of the
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: information that's out there is not correct. And because of
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: poor forest management, that information just jumps, igniting into larger
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: and larger nonsense infernos that coincidentally seem to reinforce whatever
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: grudge any of these folks have against California, especially their ideology.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: When you hear stories about State of Oregon sending 60
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: fire trucks, I haven't confirmed that myself yet, but they
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: had to go to Sacramento to get emissions testing.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Get them to L.A.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Where they're needed. I mean, this is woke on, you know,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: woke on wild kind of stuff. Oh, Woke on Wild.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: I remember those VHS tapes. Spring Breakers. Reading the autobiography
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: of Malcolm X and putting on more clothes. Getting catcalled.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: Show us your privilege! By the way, as far as
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: what he was saying, those fired, the whole thing is bullshit.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: The fire trucks were not sent to Sacramento to get
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: emissions testing. They were sent there to be transitioned into
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: minivans without their parents' consent. That's what happens. But man.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: If there is one thing harder to extinguish than the fires,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: it is the most resilient of the rights talking points.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: The whole thing is a complete disaster. A lot of
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: it comes back to DEI.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Kristen Crowley, the fire chief in Los Angeles, she is
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: a very silly woman. The first gay female fire chief ever. Wow.
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: Under her is Christina Kepner, first lesbian assistant chief.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Then under her is Christine Larson.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: They're all Christina, Christina.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: She's also a lesbian.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Christina, Christina, Christina.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Lesbian, lesbian, lesbian.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: What?
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: What are you doing?
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: You just f * * * ing summoned them. Do
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: you understand? You can't. You can't just say the name
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: three times. Do you know what you just unleashed onto
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: this earth? From now on, it's just infernos and lesbian firefighters.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure Megan with a Y should be criticizing
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: people named Christina. But apparently to the right, drought conditions,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: high winds, and densely stacked flammable structures were.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: All fine until they added the lesbians.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: And then something peculiar happened.
• 13:49
  Speaker 12: What is your message to city administrators starting with Mayor Best?
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: My message is the fire department needs to be properly funded.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: And it's not? It's not at this point. Did the
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: city of Los Angeles fail you? Yes.
• 14:01
  Speaker 13: We need to be fully, fully funded and supported so
• 14:04
  Speaker 13: that our firefighters can do their jobs.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Lesbian firefighter has attacked black lady mayor. Who will the
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: right support in this opposite of a Sophie's Choice? Really,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, in the hierarchy of DEI crimes, black lady, man, lesbian, firefighter.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know which one of those is there. I
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: want to say white whale, but that'd be wrong.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Look, I'm not suggesting that DEI is not responsible for
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: at least 99% of this tragedy. But devil's advocate. This
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: is the Palisades in 1923. And that's not after a fire.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: It's just dead. It's like a desert. And someone decided
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to build a city there, a densely populated, albeit beautiful
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: city in the middle of it. That's what they did.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to guess that the person whose idea
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: it was wasn't a lesbian firefighter or a black lady mayor.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: We didn't even have lesbians back then until one snuck
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: here from France in 1934. So stop with the DEI. Oh,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: that was the straw that broke the camel's back. The
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: meritocracy built that city. The meritocracy created the dangerous conditions
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: that made a tragedy like this almost inevitable. Don't take
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: my word for it. I know the liberal argument sounds
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: like Charlie Brown's teacher to your ear. Let me get
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: someone who speaks to your frequency.
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: So I was talking to this guy and he was
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: telling me, he goes, dude, one day he goes it's
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: just going to be the right wind and fire is
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: going to start in the right place and it's going
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: to burn through la all the way to the ocean
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: and it's not a thing we can do about it
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: now of course.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: He did go on to say lesbians will make it
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: worse point is man we are humans we build shit
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: in difficult areas on the belief that we will figure
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: out how to subdue god and nature for god's sakes
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: 50 years they made a movie about what a dumb
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: idea would be to develop this city into the country's
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: second largest metro area even they knew la wasn't a
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: good place to raise your daughter or your sister.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: He's my daughter My sister, my daughter.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Movies were f * * * ing wild in the 70s. Like,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: you could do anything in movies. Like, there's no, like,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: slap court. Like, literally, they're like, Jack, do it again,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: this time with your fist. Like, they didn't give a
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: f * * *. Sometimes things happen that are beyond
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: the bounds of human infrastructure. Although admittedly, the L.A. powers
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: that be have not covered themselves in glory at this time.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Right now, if you.
• 17:28
  Speaker 10: Need help, emergency information, resources and shelter is available.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: All of this can be found at URL. Look, I'm
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: not saying she's Churchill, ladies and gentlemen. Don't worry. When
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: the bombs start falling, don't worry. Just insert useful information here. So, yeah,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: improvements can be made in leadership, in management, in design,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: in materials, in myriad ways. But sometimes fire lies. a
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: tornado and makes a mockery of human infrastructure and our
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: ability to dictate the terms of our existence on this planet.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: But the one thing it shouldn't dictate is the cruelty
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: that we would show to those in pain because we
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: don't think they consistently vote right.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: Today, the Senate held its first confirmation hearing for Pete Hegseth,
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Trump's nominee for defense secretary and dude who makes sure
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: everyone at the frat house has their stories straight. Now,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: since he was nominated a couple months ago, we found
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: out a lot about Hegseth, and most of it does
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: not inspire confidence. He's been accused of sexual assault, he
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: was accused of nearly running a veterans group into the ground,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: and he has a documented history of excessive drinking, which
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: we learned even more about today.
• 18:59
  Speaker 9: A Hegseth acquaintance describes a breakfast they had with Hegseth
• 19:02
  Speaker 9: in the spring of 2023. We met at Fox News
• 19:05
  Speaker 9: in New York for breakfast, and he suggested we go
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: across the street to a bar. It was like 10
• 19:10
  Speaker 9: in the morning. Then he ordered two gin and tonics
• 19:12
  Speaker 9: at the same time for himself. Then he had a
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: third gin and tonic.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Whoa!
• 19:18
  Speaker 13: Whoa!
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Whoa, Hegseth is rolling up to breakfast like, I'll have
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: the steel-cut oatmeal and three gin and tonics, please. You
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: know what they say, beer before liquor, never been sicker.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Liquor before liquor, I'll have another liquor. This definitely raises
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: some questions for the person you may want to put
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: in charge of the nukes. So let's jump into today's
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: confirmation hearing. And you know what, I'm not saying he
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: showed up drunk, but it did start at 10 a.m.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: So how about we start with a quick sobriety test?
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: You know, something simple. Pete, how about name your kids?
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Our seven wonderful kids. Gunner, Jackson, Peter Boone, Kensington, Luke, Rex.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Sorry, that's a lot of them.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: And Gwendolyn.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Little tipsy, okay.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Big deal.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: All right, no biggie. My dad was always mixing up
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: me and my siblings' names, and he launched perfectly successful
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: counteroffensive rapid-deployment amphibious incursions into Iran all the time. Although
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Pete probably should have given his kids names he could
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: remember more easily. Maybe like Don Julio, Jim Beam, Johnny Walker,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Jose Cuervo, and don't forget little Michael Hard Lemonade. Anyway,
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: now that that's over, it's time for the grilling. Republicans,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I know he's your guy, but I also know you
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: love the military, so I'm sure you've got some hard
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: questions for the man who wants to run it. Why
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: do you want to do this job?
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: What drives you?
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: Tell me something about your wife that you love. How
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: many push-ups can you do?
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Follow-up question, sir. I have this jar. Could a big,
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: strong man like yourself open it? Okay, okay, but Democrats
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: made up for those softballs with a couple pitches that
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: were really high and inside.
• 21:19
  Speaker 14: I assume that in each of your weddings, you've pledged
• 21:21
  Speaker 14: to be faithful to your wife. You've taken an oath
• 21:24
  Speaker 14: to do that, haven't you? You've admitted that you had sex...
• 21:28
  Speaker 14: at that hotel on October 2017. And you were still
• 21:31
  Speaker 14: married and you just had a child by another woman.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Again.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: How do you explain your judgment?
• 21:35
  Speaker 14: You have admitted that you had sex while you were
• 21:38
  Speaker 14: married to wife two after you just had fathered a
• 21:40
  Speaker 14: child by wife three. But you didn't reveal any of
• 21:43
  Speaker 14: this to President Trump. Why didn't you inform the commander
• 21:47
  Speaker 14: in chief of the transition team of this very relevant event?
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, damn! Tim Kaine went full Maury Povich out there, huh?
• 21:58
  Speaker 8: Wow. Wow.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Tim Povich.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Although, come on, Tim.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Come on.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: You're asking why didn't Hank Seth tell Trump about how
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: many times he cheated on his wife? Maybe because if
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: he did, Trump would hi-fi him so hard it would
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: break both their hands. Okay, that was a pretty wild
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: line of questioning from Tim Kaine. Any Republican want to
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: jump to his defense here?
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: How many senators have showed up drunk to vote at night?
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: And then how many senators do you know have got
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: a divorce before cheating on their wives? Did you ask
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: them to step down?
• 22:37
  Speaker 15: No?
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: But it's for show.
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: You guys, make sure you make a big show and
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: point out the hypocrisy because a man's made a mistake.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: And you want to sit there and say that he's
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: not qualified?
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Give me a joke. Give me a joke.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay. A priest, a rabbi, and Pete Hegseth walk
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: into a bar at 10 a.m. Are you happy now,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Mark Wayne? I don't know if this was really the
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: defense that Hegseth wanted, though. Look, we're all pieces of
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: shit here. Let he without an Ashley Madison premium account
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: cast the first stone. I'll tell you who else probably
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: didn't appreciate that defense. The other senators. They probably got
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: home and their wives were like, I saw Mark Wayne
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: at the confirmation hearing today. He said that everyone in
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: the Senate cheats on their wives. Honey, honey, you can't
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: trust Mark Wayne. He's confused. The man has two first
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: names smushed together. It's insanity. Okay, but after that, they did,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: in fact, get into Hegseth's policy positions. And there was
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: one in particular policy that had people very worked up.
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: You previously have made a series of inflammatory statements about
• 24:02
  Speaker 7: women in combat.
• 24:03
  Speaker 14: In a recent podcast, you said, quote, I'm straight up
• 24:07
  Speaker 14: just saying we should not have women in combat roles.
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: You say we need moms, but not in the military,
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: especially in combat units.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: What's wrong with a mom, by the way?
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: Once you have babies, you therefore are no longer able
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: to be lethal.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Are you saying moms can't be lethal? Does the
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: name Casey Anthony mean nothing to you?
• 24:26
  Speaker 10: No.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Yes. Hexeth has a long record of insisting that women
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: have no place in combat. And you know what? I'm sorry, Libs,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: but that's just the way Pete is. Maybe he's not
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: good at leadership or management or money or vows or
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: driving home past 10 a.m., but the one thing he
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: does is stand his ground. Tell him, Pete, no women
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: in combat roles.
• 24:58
  Speaker 13: Let's make it very clear for everyone here today. As
• 25:02
  Speaker 13: Secretary of Defense, will you support women continuing to have
• 25:06
  Speaker 13: the opportunity to serve in combat roles?
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, women will have access to ground combat roles.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: From Washington, D.C., The Flash, apparently official at 1125 standard time.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth went woke. You know, perhaps the most damning
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: comment about Pete Hegseth came from Pete Hegseth himself when
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: he was explaining what the military needs in its leadership.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: The DEI policies of today are not putting meritocracy first.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: Every single senior officer will be reviewed based on meritocracy.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: Getting anything that doesn't contribute to meritocracy out of how
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: decisions are made inside the Pentagon. Ensuring readiness and meritocracy
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: is front and center. Meritocracy, meritocracy, meritocracy.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, I know what his next kid's going to be named.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: You heard him, though. You heard him, folks. A military
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: cannot function unless it's staffed by a system based on
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: pure merit, where only the most qualified people rise to
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: the top. So says your next Secretary of Defense, who
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: will run the most complicated, powerful, deadly organization the world
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: has ever known, and whose only qualification is that Trump
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: liked watching him sit on a couch on Saturday mornings.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: But.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: But listening to Republicans today, it seems like that's going
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: to be enough to get him confirmed.
• 26:43
  Speaker 10: I just want to say, for all the talk of
• 26:47
  Speaker 10: experience and not coming from the same cocktail parties that
• 26:51
  Speaker 10: permanent Washington is used to, you are a breath of
• 26:55
  Speaker 10: fresh air.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Well, that's not what the breathalyzer said, but.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: But okay.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: Okay. Let's kick things off with the big news.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Of the day.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: At long last, I can announce a ceasefire and a
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: hostage deal has been reached between Israel and Hamas.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Huzzah!
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Whoa! Yeah!
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: What a historic moment. Joe Biden articulately got through a sentence.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: And also a ceasefire. And the time he couldn't be
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: better for Biden. There's still time for him to win Michigan, so.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Now, we're in the early stages of figuring out what
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: this means, and we'll be following it closely. But for now,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: let's talk about another crisis just as serious as what's
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: happening in the Middle East. I'm talking about TikTok, a.k.a.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: the reason your thumb is so frickin' jacked. I find
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: that genuinely disturbing. TikTok is the hottest app in the U.S.,
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: and next week, it's frickin' gone.
• 28:03
  Speaker 10: First, a story that is on a lot of people's
• 28:04
  Speaker 10: minds this morning, the looming shutdown of TikTok here in
• 28:07
  Speaker 10: the U.S.
• 28:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, a federal ban on this popular Chinese-owned app is
• 28:11
  Speaker 6: set to take effect on Sunday.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: The argument from the U.S.
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: Government is that TikTok presents a national security risk and
• 28:17
  Speaker 6: that the Chinese-owned company is stealing user data.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: Y'all, we are so indescribably cooked.
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: I know the government's argument is, oh, we want to
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: protect your data.
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: F * * * you and the data, bitch!
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: The United States has done a lot of stupid things.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: This has to be number one. That's the number one
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: worst thing. I mean, we did slavery in America. I mean,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: let's at least call it a tie, shall we? TikTok
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: users are upset about this, but there's not much they
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: can do. Congress passed a bill, the president signed it,
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: and the Supreme Court seems ready to rule that the
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: ban is constitutional. Which I don't think we can be
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: surprised by, because this is not exactly TikTok's core demographic.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, they're more of a Walgreens app type of crowd.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: They're old and sickly, is what I'm saying. I mean,
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the last time the Supreme Court heard the sound TikTok
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: was when death was following RBG around. Although, there's still
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: a chance that TikTok can be saved before the Costco
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: guys are euthanized on Sunday. So TikTok would be allowed
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: to keep operating if it's sold to an American owner,
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: and there's no shortage of interest.
• 29:32
  Speaker 8: New names are surfacing as potential buyers for the platform,
• 29:35
  Speaker 8: including Elon Musk. Mr.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: Beast has joined the bid to buy TikTok.
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: Former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin previously launched an effort to
• 29:43
  Speaker 8: buy it, and Shark Tank star Kevin O'Leary says he
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: and other investors are also making a play. Yes!
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: There's still a chance TikTok could be sold to one
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: of America's many rich weirdos. Apparently Lex Luthor wasn't available.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: So this is the best America has to offer. I mean,
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: I actually heard myself say, man, I hope that TikTok
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: goes to someone sane like Mr. Beast. I mean, can't
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: there be one cool potential buyer? Shaquille O'Neal, I'm talking
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: to you. Stop buying so many Papa John's franchises and
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: get real about your investment future. The trad wives and
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: the big-headed bitches with the trench coats buttoned up to
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: the top need you. But if no American buyer emerges,
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: there's still one more wild card. The wild card. Donald Trump. Now,
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: he tried to ban TikTok during his first term, but
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: he's now trying to save the app. And you'll never
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: guess why he had a change of heart.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: I have a.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Warm spot in my heart for TikTok because I won
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: youth by 34 points.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: And there are those that say that TikTok has something
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: to do with that. I was on TikTok for the
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: election and I won the young people by 36 points.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: I'm not opposed to TikTok.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: That's right. TikTok helped Trump, so now TikTok is good.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: And by the way, if you're wondering whether Trump won
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: the youth vote by 34 points or 36 points, the
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: answer is he lost the youth vote by 11 points.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: Slight discrepancy right there. Basically the same thing. So all
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: this is up in the air. But TikTok users are
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: not waiting around to find out how this is going
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: to play out.
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: Amid fear a TikTok ban could take effect later this week,
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: some Americans flocking to Chinese apps like Red Note.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I'm a TikTok refugee.
• 31:47
  Speaker 8: And Lemon 8. Both apps have similarities to TikTok, and
• 31:51
  Speaker 8: Lemon 8 shares a parent company, ByteDance.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: Red Note.
• 31:54
  Speaker 9: Is owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party, and
• 31:57
  Speaker 9: users must agree to adhere to the Chinese Constitution, practice
• 32:01
  Speaker 9: socialist values, and promote the traditional culture of China.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah! Good job, U.S. government! You told America they couldn't
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: see China anymore, and now they're running off to Vegas
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: with it. I mean, this has got to be so
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: frustrating for Kamala. She just spent a whole election fighting
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: accusations that she's a socialist, and now every American is like,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: I would literally pledge to be a Chinese socialist for
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: a good TikTok replacement. The question is, why would Americans
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: be so cavalier about the threat of China spying? Maybe
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: it's because after years of receiving monthly emails about how
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: every American company has lost or stolen our data, we've
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: become cynical about the concept of privacy. Or maybe we
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: actually get off on knowing China is spying on us
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: the whole time. Maybe it's gotten so bad, I can't
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: even enjoy a cat video anymore unless I know Xi
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Jinping is watching me from some digital cuck chair in
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: the corner. So, Looks like this new app, Red Note,
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: is exploding. And the last time something from China went
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: this viral was... It's not important. But we need to
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: see what people are discovering once they're onto it.
• 33:13
  Speaker 15: One thing that I've noticed since being on Red Note
• 33:16
  Speaker 15: for like the last two days is how much more
• 33:21
  Speaker 15: advanced the Chinese... culture is than what I had in
• 33:26
  Speaker 15: my brain.
• 33:27
  Speaker 12: Most of these Chinese people, they look so much less
• 33:33
  Speaker 12: traumatized than most Americans. I am no longer convinced that
• 33:39
  Speaker 12: we are living in a first world country. While lurking
• 33:42
  Speaker 12: on Red Note, I found out about this car.
• 33:46
  Speaker 15: We can't sell this car because it's Chinese.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Look how cute it is.
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: They sell in pink.
• 33:51
  Speaker 12: It's like $ 15, 000.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Which is affordable. I made a new bestie.
• 33:56
  Speaker 10: She ended up going to the market and sent me
• 33:58
  Speaker 10: a picture of her local market, Corn on the Cob.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: 94 cents. What would it be here in America, you
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: might ask? $ 7. Is this what they don't want us
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: to know?
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: That's not a good sign for America. I was made
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: to think a communist dictator was bad, but check out
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: these corn prices. Daddy likey. Come on, America, fight back.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: If Chinese people show you their cheap corn, you show
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: them our robust free press. Okay, no, okay. Or you
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: show them our fair and impartial justice. F * * *,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: not that.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: Dave and Busters. Show them our Dave and Busters. Hell yeah,
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: in your commie faces. A lot of people are worried
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: about a second Trump presidency. So, last night's farewell address
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: was a chance for the president to offer the nation
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: some comfort.
• 34:53
  Speaker 8: President Biden, in his final farewell address from the Oval Office,
• 34:57
  Speaker 8: delivered a stunning warning to the nation on his way out.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: The potential rise of a tech industrial complex... It could
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: pose real dangers. An oligarchy is taking shape in America
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: of extreme wealth, power, and influence that literally threatens our
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: entire democracy.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Okay. Thanks for the encouragement, Mr.
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: President.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: I'm shitting my pants in comfort. Look, I know you've
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: only got a few days left, but don't just give
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: us problems. Maybe offer some solutions, you know? There's a
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: dangerous threat of oligarchy from a rich elite, and that's
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: why I'm pardoning Luigi Mangione.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Go get him, tiger!
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, Biden used his last speech as president to warn
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: us about a new American oligarchy. And you can tell
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: the message hit home because of how many people, and
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: this is true, how many people immediately went to Google
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: to search, what is oligarchy? And weirdly, Google responded, don't
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: worry about it. Turns out you don't need to Google
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: oligarchy to understand what it actually looks like. Just tune
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: in to the inauguration this Monday.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: NBC News is now reporting that Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: and Mark Zuckerberg will all three attend Donald Trump's inauguration
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: next week.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: The CEOs of Apple and Google will be there.
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: Sam Altman from OpenAI, TikTok CEO, showed shoe.
• 36:30
  Speaker 12: He was invited to sit on the dais where former
• 36:32
  Speaker 12: presidents and family traditionally sit.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: Whoo! That is right. Facebook's at the inauguration. Google, Amazon,
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: the CEO of Zoom will be there wearing a suit top,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: short bottoms. CEO of Uber will be there in two minutes.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: Maybe five minutes. You know what? They're looking for a
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: new CEO. Even the CEO of Vine will be there.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, he'll be panhandling outside, but he'll be near,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: near there. The inauguration guest list can't just be billionaires
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: who get off reading your DMs. There has to be more.
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, who else is Trump inviting to watch him
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: take the oath of office?
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: Performing at Trump's inauguration will be familiar names from his campaign,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: including Kid Rock, Lee Greenwood, and the Village People.
• 37:20
  Speaker 16: First responders from Butler County, Pennsylvania, where Trump survived that
• 37:24
  Speaker 16: first assassination attempt, will march in the parade. And the
• 37:28
  Speaker 16: MAGA garbage truck that went viral during the campaign will
• 37:31
  Speaker 16: reportedly hit the streets of Washington, D.C. during the inauguration
• 37:35
  Speaker 16: day parade.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Whoa!
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: Trump's bringing back all the characters from the campaign like
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: it's the Seinfeld finale. We're going to be watching from
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: home like, look, it's the cats and dogs from Springfield.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: And they're wearing Trump's ear bandage. I mean, they're even
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: bringing the garbage truck. He used it as a prop
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: in one campaign stunt, and now it's going to be
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: in the parade. I mean, it's not even going to
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: drive itself. It's going to ride in the back of
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: a limo. I mean, now that this garbage truck is
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: a MAGA celebrity, the sky is the limit. It's going
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: to get its own right-wing podcast, join the White House staff,
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: then every Trump sycophant is going to start sucking up
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: to it, then finally reporters will catch the truck getting
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: a handjob from Kimberly Guilfoyle in the Rose Garden. Tale
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: as old as time. But I will say, this inauguration
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: list must be so embarrassing for anyone who didn't get
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: an invite. I mean, Sean Spicer's gonna be like, does
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: anyone know if the garbage truck has a plus one?
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: You know, let's move on, because while the new presidency
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: is about to begin, there's a frenzy of activity happening
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: at the end of the current presidency. Yesterday, President Biden
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: announced a breakthrough in the war in the Middle East,
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: phase one of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. And
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: what I found really uplifting is that we finally sealed
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: the deal. New reporting this morning that there was extraordinary
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: cooperation between the outgoing and incoming administrations.
• 39:05
  Speaker 6: The New York Times reports there was coordination between both
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: presidential teams and that each directed their advisors to work
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: together to push Israel and Hamas over the finish line.
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: Look at this.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: Look at this.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: You see this?
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: This is truly inspiring. Two administrations, two rivals, working together
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: to make the world a better place. Focusing on what's important.
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Creating peace in the world. Not petty fights over who
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: gets the credit.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Does this deal belong to Biden or Trump? Who do
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: you give credit to? It could not have happened without Trump.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: This is President Biden's negotiation. If Donald Trump wasn't elected
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: in November, none of this would have been happening.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: This credit goes to Joe Biden.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden is the president.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: Not 100%. That's not fair.
• 39:46
  Speaker 8: Babel!
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: Come on, what is all this arguing about? There's enough
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: credit for everyone who deserves it. The presidents, the diplomats,
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: and most importantly, everyone who changed their profile pics. You're welcome. Hey,
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: what else do you expect from the media? Stirring up
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: drama is their thing. I'm sure the two statesmen at
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: the heart of the negotiations are content to share the credit.
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: President-elect Trump wasted no time angling for credit on the
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: ceasefire deal we've been talking about this morning, posting on
• 40:17
  Speaker 6: his social media site that, quote, this epic ceasefire agreement
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: could have only happened as a result of our historic
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: victory in November.
• 40:24
  Speaker 8: How much credit do you give to the Trump team
• 40:27
  Speaker 8: for this deal?
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Trump is already taking credit for it.
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, this is the exact framework of the
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: deal I proposed back in May.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: Exactly. First off, Joe, I don't think that's the brag
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: you think it is. Everyone's been ignoring this thing since May.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Then something happened.
• 40:51
  Speaker 13: I don't know.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: And Donald, can you just throw this man a bone, please?
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Haven't you done enough to poor Joe? You took his
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: second term. You took his legacy. You took his wife
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: to go see Baby Girl together. Can't you just share
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: a little credit with him? But guys, a little perspective here.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: The important thing isn't who gets credit. The important thing
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: is that after over a year of war, we finally
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: have a ceasefire. A new wrinkle in the hostage ceasefire deal.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: Israel's war cabinet a short time ago delayed a vote
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: to officially ratify the deal because they say Hamas has
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: reneged on some parts of the agreement. Like I said,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: the important thing is we thought about having a ceasefire.
• 41:33
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: And what a fun couple of hours it was.
