January 6 Hearings: Season Finale Recap | Daniel Kaluuya

planning to send us back to our apartments. I hope you enjoyed your shower this morning because it could be your last. And we wrap up season one of the January six Committee, plus Oscar won A. Daniel Coloa is joining us on the show. So let's do this people, Let's come straight. I think you don't have okay. Before we get into the big stories, let's catch up on a few other things that are going on. First of all, Vladimir Putin has announced that he will unblock Ukraine's ports,

and it's good news. But I trust Putin's deals as much as I would trust eat On muscar on my wife so we'll see how that goes. Also, w W founder Vince McMahon has been forced to retire after it came out that he may have paid up to fifteen million dollars to hush up sexual misconduct allegations over the last twenty years. Yeah, and you know something's over the line when pro wrestling catches, because those reffs never see anything,

you know. In celebrity news, Drake is under fire for posting a picture of a random woman that he saw at a restaurant to his degram, saying that he tried to ed drop the picture to her so she could see how hot she looked. Yeah. Yeah, and while it's not like the worst thing in the world, I think we can all agree it's a little creepy, you know.

In fact, this punishment, Drake should have to ride the subway and then let all the creeps ed drop their dick picks to him, you know, and we'll be like, ah, ship, why don't you look like a colored flower? And of course, the most exciting thing that happened over the weekend, we got the first trailer for Black Panther Too, the pinder for ever and I don't know if you saw it, but that trailer was amazing and it was so black

what black people? Black people were celebrating that trailer the same way white people celebrate when Trader Joe's drops a brand new frozen meal. They're like pumpkin rabbioli. What all right? But let's get into the big news of the day, starting with the major announcement from the World Health Organization. And yes, you already know the news is going to be bad because the World Health Organization they never call us to say, hey, guys, we just want to let

you know the world is healthy, everything's fine. No, they only pop up to say ship like this. With cases rapidly on the rise, this morning, the World Health Organization is sounding the alarm on monkey pops, declaring the virus a global health emergency across the country. The numbers are steadily rising. Less than two weeks ago, the CDC listed just over fourteen hundred confirmed cases nationwide. Now that number has nearly doubled, with cases in all but five states.

The nation's epicenter New York, where nearly nine hundred people have been infected. The last time the World Health Organization made this designation was January, in response to COVID nineteen another global health emergency. No, we just got done with ignoring this pandemic. I don't ref I can handle a nogal one. Pop can't take this. And also, why is New York the epicenter again? Huh? Haven't we been through enough? Hurricane Sandy, coronavirus, the Knicks. Now, I'm joking, I'm joking.

Sandy wasn't a complete disaster, seriously, people, And what is it about New York? Why? Why do diseases love it? You know, what is it about this place outside of like the rats and the cockroaches, and the subways full of fee season piles of garbage on the sidewalk, outside of all of that, why do diseases love New York? Not? The good news? And the big difference between monkey Parks and COVID is so far monkey Parks doesn't seem as

dangerous so far, still gonna take it seriously. But for most people it gives you some painful boils for like a few days, and then it's gone, Yeah and off the COVID. I'm not gonna lie. That doesn't phaze me. Yeah, yeah, because it's like, is this gonna kill a million people? And shut down the planet. No, well, then I'm taking these boils to the club. Baby. Now you may have noticed that online or somewhere else people are saying that monkey pops is a gay disease. Please understand that that

is not true. All right. Yes, gay men who are very sexually active are at higher risk of getting the disease because it's transmitted through touch. But it is not a gay disease. Okay, anyone can get it. So what we should make sure the gay communities get the support that they need. We also shouldn't stigmatize them and make it seem like monkeypos is their disease, the same way COVID, the same way COVID wasn't a Chinese person's disease, the

same way AIDS wasn't an African person's disease. All right, I want to wear. A disease starts. If you don't start it out, it could spread out to the larger population. It's how diseases work. You know. Some disease might start in a frat house, but if you don't stop it, one day, your granny could be on the phone with you. Like, I don't have much longer, sweetie. The doctors say I've got why fever. It's it's really bad. So let's not blame any one group of people here for monkey parks.

The ones we should be blaming are the monkeys. Yeah, don't forget. All these diseases come from monkeys, and it's not a mistake. They're trying to kill us. Yeah, because you see, remember we used to roll with the monkeys. And then what do we do. We secretly went away, we got closing computers, and we left our monkey brothers behind. Yeah, and then they're like, all right, screw you guys. You said you were going to the shop to buy cigarettes, and now you build cities and ship and you left

us naked and the bushes eating bananas. We're gonna show you. But even though even though it's an emergency, let's not get too stressed out right about something that may or may not become a worldwide disaster, because we've already got a worldwide disaster to focus on. It's called climate change. Yeah, that's the reason everyone was sweating so much this weekend. They managed to make weight for the big fights, But I'm an accountant. You made weight get in their champion.

Last week we saw how the heat was affecting Europe, right, temperatures were hitting record highs wildfires when multiple countries and now the US is experiencing the same thing. Many cities are seeing record breaking temperatures meters hitting triple digits in areas throughout the Northeast, and that could be the case the rest of the week as well. That's riot. At least four cities set new marks, including Boston Newark in California,

the Oak Fire has burned at least ten structures. These newlyweds coming back to their home to find it reduced to ash, many wondering if they'll even have a home to come back to. Wildfire sending residents fleeing in the West, emergency cruise in Yosemite National Park working day and night from the ground and in the air trying to contain the more than fifteen thousand acre Oak Fire. This is the not so mighty Rio Grand near Albuquerque, New Mexico.

High tempts and extreme drout i've caused water levels to drop to their lowest point in about forty years. These new satellite images showing just how much water Lake Meat has lost to a massive drought. It's water levels are at their lowest points in ninety seven. That is just after the lake was created by the Hoover dam. Yeah, it looks like the world is on fire and soon all of our drinking water will be gone. So jokes

on you monkey powks. Yeah, you can't kill us if we're killing ourselves first, bitch, Hugh Men's, Hugh, Men's que, Men's hue, Men's Men's man to man to man man, Yeah, we're gonna die. But once again we're being reminded. If humanity doesn't get our act together soon, Mother Nature is gonna handle this problem herself. The thunderstorms are going to become more thunder rye droughts are going to be more droughty. Planet's gonna be so hot, drink is gonna ed drop

at a picture of itself. I mean, did you guys feel how hot it was this weekend? Did you feel it? It was no joke. My sweat was sweating. For a second. I thought my uber made a mistake and dropped me off in hell. I said, four streets it was so hot. I was just walking into random doors, just like to steal the air conditioning. I'm not gonna lie. And when I say every store, I mean every store, even stores

like zero business being inside. And the worst thing is, you know, when you do that, you have to act like you actually want to buy something even when you don't. So, um, you guys, you don't do custom eyeholes. Yeah yeah, so just off the rack okay? Yeah yeah, And you said the crosses are not self burning, but you you can get an easy light version online. Okay, hey yeah, yeah, well you know what, I'm gonna come back. I'm gonna come back. I'm just gonna go to Saphara because I

need to get some of whatever they sell. And uh, yeah, I'll be back. I'll be back. What was your name again? Was was Art? Was? Art? All right? Thank you, thank you, I'll be back. I'll do that. Yeah, I'll do that. Yeah, I'll definitely come back. I did not go back. But again, let's not get too stressed about this disaster that could end human life on Earth, because we can still change it.

And besides, we need to save some of our stress for another existential threat, the robot apocalypse and Russia a a primely bad move at the Moscow Chess Open, a chess plane robot apparently malfunctioned and broke its young opponent's finger. We see the robot taking one of the boys pieces, but when he makes him move quickly, the robot grabbed

his finger hard enough to break it. Officials say the seven year old didn't wait long enough before that next move, but he was back playing the next day, so so that robot tried to kill that child and everyone just went back the next day like nothing happened. Also, who is programming a chess robot with enough strength to break a human hand? This is chess? What UFC? It was this rook to chokehold which actually wouldn't watch more chess chokes. I'm not gonna lie, but this is how it starts. People,

Serri stops listening to you. A chess robot breaks a seven year olds finger. Next thing you know your room by sneaking up behind you with a knife. Prepared to die? Here my prepared to or die? Where are you here? Men's prepared or die? All right, that's it for the headlines. But before we go to a quick break, let's check it on the stock market without finance expert Michael Cost to everybody, what's fry on my creak? More importantly, what's

happening in the stock market? Yeah, you know, I'm actually not crushing it. So yeah, Psych, I'm crushing it. I'm crushing I'm also trying to bring back psych but it's not really work. Psych. It's working and I've crushing it. Dude, I crushed it, and I got a hot tip. You want to make some money in the market, I got a hot tip some play attention? Great, all right, so let's get it. This is the actually before we do this,

that Black Panther trailer, who right, that was amazing. I got two things to say about Black Panther, Okay, first one, well, Conda forever, all right, and the second one is people been telling me to stop doing that, all right, So so that's my last one, Psyche, what kind of forever I'm that? So this is the don't actually actually actually the robot that broke the robot breaks a child's finger and nothing happens to it. That's unfair, you know. But my two year old niece puts her finger in my

mouth and I bite down and now I'm a monster. Okay, you ate the last cupcake, Denise. You gotta learn some boundaries, all right. The big news Trevor in the w W E right here is and look I wrestled in middle school, so I understand this. Okay, I wasn't on the wrestling team, but I was thrown down and beating up a lot. Okay, look at this eight percent increase in one day. I know what you're thinking, this is wrestling. That's fake. No no, no, no no no. This is real, almost as real as

those injuries I sustained throughout middle school. But look here's what happened. The CEO of w W, Vince McMahon, stepped down and this thing climbed higher than a unitard up a sweaty wrestler's butt hole. Okay, now this is humiliating for Vince McMahon. Okay, this is like if you go to a party and then as soon as you leave, everyone's like, that's when it got good. That's what Vince

McMahon is dealing with right here. There's been a big shake up at w W. They hired a new creative director, Triple H, a former wrestler, or as I refer to him as. But here's what I'm hoping for, Trevor, all right, with this infusion of cash, I'm hoping the WW buy some better furniture. You know, Stop with these folding chairs and these tables that break all the time. How about how about some solid, oh some something heavy like a hickory, and then you hit the referee with that. Okay, I

promised you a hot tip. All right, Okay, here's the hot tip. Think about this. Think about this all right. If you're the CEO of a struggling company, Okay, just say you're leaving. Wait for the stock to go up, right then you say side, I'm back in. We're kind of forever Michael Costa. Everybody, don't go away, because when we come back, we'll look at the season Canaly of January six. You don't miss it. Welcome back to The

Daily Show. After six weeks of televised drama, we finally come to the end of season one of the January six hearings, the investigation into the day Donald Trump lost his security deposits, and the latest news is actually about Steve Bannon, the former Trump advisor, and you're daily reminded to wear sunscreen. Bannon refused to comply with a subpoena from the January six committee, and now he could spend two years in prison after being found guilty of contempt

of Congress. And before you try and make some how this joke about, Oh, I hope he doesn't drop the soap in prison, don't Chris Steve Benn doesn't use soap? Okay, it's not an issue. But anyway, let's catch up on all the other juicy details coming out of those hearings

in our ongoing coverage of January six. So, the January six hearings finally came to a close with the Committee putting on a two hour primetime show which they hoped would finally convince the nation that President Trump was hashtag problematic, and because this was the last episode, they did not

hold back. The prime time finale for the January six committee lived up to its billing, the committee presenting what maybe it's most damning evidence to date, highlighting the one hundred seven minutes between President Trump telling his supporters to march to the Capitol and when he finally told them to go home. Trump spent much of that time at the White House watching the violent assault unfold on TV and refusing to publicly condemn it or call off the mob.

For hours. Trump ignored please by his aids, members of Congress, and even his own daughter to call off the violence as it unfolded before his eyes. The prime time event painted the clearest picture yet of how former President Trump waited until it was clear that his supporters would not be able to stop the certification of the vote before he made any attempt to call off the angry mall. As he was gathering his things in the dining room to leave, President Trump reflected on the day's events with

the White House employee. President Trump said nothing to the employee about the attack. He said only quote, Mike Pence let me down. Wow. Trump watched everything that happened on January six, and his biggest problem is that Mike Pence let him down by I guess, not being hanged. He said he was my writer or died, but when I asked him to die, he wouldn't do it. What a loser.

But yeah, the main takeaway from this hearing is not only did Trump do nothing through three hours of the best TV he watched all year, but he only finally spoke out once it was clear that the coup had failed. And everyone knows that move right when you act too late, as if you wanted to do it, but you don't. It's like that thing you do when when you go out with your friends you know'd be like, oh, let me grab the check, because like we left the restaurant

twenty minutes ago. Oh but too bad. Next time I got to I got to now. I mean, if you, if you want to be really generous, you could say the reason Trump didn't do anything on January six is because maybe he was in shock. All right. I mean, we've all tweeted crazy things. But if I tweeted I'd kill for a mac rib and then my followers burned down McDonald's, I wouldn't know what to do as well. But it turns out that even on January seven, and Trump still had to be forced, kicking and screaming into

condemning the mega mob and conceding the election. And the only reason we know this is because the Committee released the outtakes of his speech, and they are hilarious. I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack yesterday, and to those who broke the law, you will pay. You do not represent our movement, you do not represent our country. And if you broke the law, I can't say that I'm not gonna. I already said you will pay.

The demonstrators who infiltrated the capital have defied the seat of destiny just defiled, right, so I can't see it very well. Okay, I'll do this. I'm gonna do this. Let's go. But this election is now over. Congress has certified the results. I don't want to say the election is over. I just want to say Congress has certified the results without siding the election zone. Okay, but convers fright, Yeah, I didn't say over. So let's let me see. Don't go to the paragraph before, h Okay. I would like

to begin by addressing the heinous attack yesterday. Yesterday is a hard word for me. I could take the word yesterday because it doesn't work with heyn his attack on our country, say on our country. I want to say that my only goal was to insure the integrity of the vote. My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the boat. Ye. I'm not gonna lie. I'm torn on this. I'm torn because yes, yes, him refusing to say the election is over, that's damning as hell, right.

But the rest of the stuff, I mean, it just seems like someone who's struggling to read. You know, No, I get it, I get it can happen to you. You know what can happen. Sometimes you're trying to work with the camera and you don't. I understand that, I understand. But what I will say is really funny is how he says he can't say yesterday, but says yesterday. He's like yesterday, I can't say yesterday, yester. Yesterday's realier. Nobody can say yesterday. What what is that word? See, I'll

trash hit out yes media. You see, you can't say yesterday. You can't say you can't say it was that thing. By the way, that was funny. I've never seen him do that. It's like a sassy Trump. But really the parts of the clip where Trump refuses to say the election is over, that is bad, right, and very optimistic, because say what you want about the man, he does

not give up. He was a football coach, he'd be in the locker room like, okay, team we lost by thirty points and the other team has already gone home, which means the end zone is completely unguarded. Tried to run the board. Fellas get in there like yesterday, Hi say I said it. I said the word. Now. The committee didn't just expose the president for throwing a trump Trump tump Trump Trump Trump Trump. Now, that's hard. Can we change the guys? That's hard, that's hard, Trump trim.

They also took a moment to reveal that a lot of the bravado that we've seen from far right Republican lawmakers wasn't actually how they felt while the patriots were ransacking the capital, and one person who really got dragged was Missouri senator and pro storming the capitol Republican Josh Harley. The committee highlighting Missouri Senator Josh Holly's actions on January six. As he entered the Capitol. As you can see in this photo, he raised his fist and solidarity with the protesters.

Later that day, Senator Holly fled after those protesters he helped to rile up storm the Capitol. See for yourself the committee room erupting in laughter watching Holly run. Okay, I'm sorry, but the January six Committee should be ashamed of itself. They had no reason to show this. They just wanted to embarrass the Senator of the United States. Soot to embarrass the man. Huh, why just because he ran away like a little bit. I mean, what did he do? Yeah, he raised his fists and he egged

the crowd on. But is that a reason to show him pissing his pants on national television? Huh? Isn't a crime to be crying and running away from the mob that you riled up? Oh, he's such a bitch as Let me tell you something. That bitch ass thought the mob was gonna kill him. Is that funny to you, this grown man running on these little gazelle legs? I do and die? I know, and you think that's funny? Grow up? So sadly that's it for season one of the January six hearings. But good news, good news, it's

already been renewed for season two that drops in September. Yeah, I'd like any good series. They're leaving us with some major cliffhangers. Will they find the Secret Service deleted text messages? Will Liz Cheney and Adam Kinsing are finally realized the love they've been looking for has been right in front of them this whole time? Will we find out that Steve Bannon was the source of monkey poks? Either way,

we'll be waiting with Bates and breath. All right, we gotta take a quick break, but stay tuned, because when we come back, Daniel, come Louisa will be joining us in the flow. You don't want to miss it. Welcome back to the Daily Show. My guest to like is Oscar winning actor Daniel Caluja. He's here to talk about starring in the new film. Nope, HEA's welcome Daniel Caluya. Daniel Calluja, Welcome back to the Daily Show. What should I say? Oscar winner? Come on, Daniel coming, Welcome back

to the Daily Show. Thank you, thanks for having me, Thanks for your thanks for having me, come on, this is this is like you dand thanks. If you're not Jerry, you'd be like I'm supposed to be here, I'll be like you're welcome. Yeah, I'm not. I would love to know how do you stay motivated after an Oscar I'm struggling. I say, movie, I think it's not about that. It's not it's not I'm not like I'm appreciate that it's

a blessing. But I feel like it's just like I see it like a master's if you get a masters, you know I've got masters, Well you can do with it, saying that's how I see is that when I'm gonna do with this? So like all right, So it's a key al right when king what kind of key is that? I don't know what I'm kind of you know what you are using it this this movie and people you know obviously played the trailer and it was just a little piece of the movie there, but um, nobody knows

what this movie is about. Like there are times when you didn't really know what was happening. I didn't know you're looking up in the sky and then they're clearly there's no I can't say it, but there's no thing in the sky. Is You're like sixty said in the film, like there's nothing there. So you're like, and you know, what's he gonna like? And then then they'll show you some like skelettle kind of like but so you kind of have to like imagine it, and then you have

to trust Jordan's that's a big thing. He you know, he I'm sure you have seen. He loves you so much, you know, he just he just he feels like you're

the greatest actor that he's ever worked. He says, in many ways you're his DeNiro, which is a huge compliment, you know, because because the relationship you have, the special I remember when I remember when I realized there was a there was a scene to give me the key scene to get up um that was improvised, and yeah, there was a whole scene that was written and I'm like instinct she was like, So I'm like, I don't this isn't. He's gotta get out because like, what's he

talking about. And then and then I was like, it's not working. It's not working, and he just removed all the lines and he said, just ask her for the keys. Just ask for the keys. But I'm like, well, he knows that she's he knows that she's not just asking me, just ask the keys. And I realized in that moment because oh, I trust you. And then so then I just did it. So I did it. There was no like, there's no back and forth. I just don't give me

the keys. I just shouted at Alison, give me the keys game, the keys game, the kids game, the keys and that was what was staying. That was that was one of the most powerful scenes in the field. That that's what I feel like you have. It's like exactly

what you're saying. It's instinctual. You know, like even when I when I think about your journey in acting and who you are, you've always had this um it's it's it's an uncanny ability to understand not even who the character is on the page, but who the character is inside of you, you know, like I've always wanted with any amazing actor, are there parts of the character that you keep with you or or are you able to just like turn it off and then and then you're

done after the project. No, it stays with you. It stays or you have to kind of like you have to. You have to, like so that's why I usually go away for a week by myself and you have to kind of get back to yourself and go, what were my habits? And because you're doing his habits and you are your habits. So you're doing this person's habits for like four months and then you but you then you

you're not You're away from yourself. You're here, so you have to kind of go travel back to yourself and go, oh, I want to watch this YouTube video about silly stuff and I want to It's Instagram video about and Lebron James saying something like you get back to yourself? You mean, so, yeah, this is this is one of those movies that has, you know, one of the best costs that out there, that is out there. I'm not gonna lie. You know, I love you. But Kicky Palmer, like, I'm she's just amazing.

She's just amazing. I feel like you two have become best friends everywhere I've seen you together every it feels like you like siblings. Now essentially, he's deeply annoying. Yeah, that's my girl. No, man, that's my girl. But she knows how to place my buttons and she's like, it's funny. It's like we have like we call it a sibilance. That's like that, so that we have a brother and

sister that dynamic and key. When you're working with somebody like that, you know again, trust comes and comes into the picture. You know, you're performing together, you you're spending so much time together. You does do you think it improves your relationship when you're in a tough situation acting or does does your relationship improve the situation that you're in? Like? Which way does it go? Because I know you don't

always meet the actors beforehand. Sometimes you meet on set, so you see you see a person's character and when you're like going up against them, you see how generous they are, You see how much they see, how much how much they are there for themselves, are they're there for the script? What you see who they're serving, because sometimes they're just serving themselves, or sometimes they're serving the direct, sometimes they're serving script. So you see some see stuff

as a person. So you would see that in life anyway. So it kind it's just a mirror everything. It's like coming first a chicken or the egg. But I like, especially if you have a close kind of relationship with a character, spending time with him beforehand and just going out and just being silly and just rolling out, like she took me to a house part. It was fun, man,

it was cool. It was a good house. I want to ask you what happened there, but I want I've been lucky enough to know you, you know, across the years, and you have maintained that sense of self. You have maintained that generosity. You have kept Daniel intact, which is not easy in the industry that you're in. I noticed recently that you joined Instagram, and what fascinated me was the fact that you're such a private person. You've always been.

How do you see you sharing a piece of the world as someone who's extremely private I'm still figuring that out because I just I just feel like I'm trying

not to overthink it. Okay, this is what I'm doing today. Like, but I kind of like using the platform to show joy in it because I feel like, all right, cool, like let's show people have fun, like we have fun like that, and like it's a platform, so then you create more fun in your life and then put there's that, then it contributes to your life, and then I'm like, cool, I'm going to go to a theme part today and then how can we do that. Let's let's show that.

That's I don't know. That's I'm still figuring out. There's no like m O. But I realized I wanted a direct relationship with the audience, like I care like I care about the audience. I just just busy playing. Other people are just in my head. I'm just like I was going in another one. I don't know that why don't you post? Who am? I? Like? I don't know what am I com post about? I shot a police officer this morning and I'm on the run, and I

said like, like I didn't I didn't. So then now I'm like a bit more into myself of what I do this a little bit of that, but I'm still figuring out. Before I let you go, there's one question I've been dying to ask you, and this is from the Oscars. You know, when you when you're accepting your reward in your speech, you said, I want to thank my mom and dad for having sex. You're the only person. You're the only person that's asked me. I'm the only

persons asked me that question. You like that was it was a really fun moment, and you were joyous and you were thanking every you were even thinking like you're your favorite rappers from from the UK, and if it was like such a joyous moment. But I didn't notice your mom was there in the audience and you you was in London, which is probably why I did it. No,

but who's an audience? They cut your mom in the audience, right, so she's in the audience, and then you go on to thank my mom and dad for having sex and they cut to her and your mom is an African mom, and everyone was like, your mom was like this did this guy just say I have sex? On TV? So from one African to another, I would like to know how did you avoid the volcano that comes. Does she say anything to you? Of course she did, like, but

it was months later. It's cooking, it's still cooking. Liked is that? But but like I was like, I've got your personality. But yeah, it was interesting. I FaceTime the right after. I was like, my mama, mama joking, it happened. But I'm joking. But I'm like people asking like why did you say that? I'm like, how did you get here? Like how did everyone get here? Like you have a mom and dad that's sex like you mean, it's like it's African. Parents are like, we know how we got here,

but we don't talk about it. You don't need to talk about it. No, I'm a renegade. Daniel. Thank you so much for being on the show. Thank you for joining me.
