You're listening to Comedy Central coming to you from New York City to the Holy City in America. It's the Daily Shown, the end of an era, defending down from it. Mardy won this. He's the Daily Show with what's going on? Everybody want for today? Tremor Now, thank you so much for shooting in, Thank you for coming out in part. Thank you, we made it. We made it another week. Take a thing, Take a thing. We've got a jam
patch show for you. Tonight. Britain is saying goodbye to its queen, the Dutch are trying to say goodbye to meet and Donald Trump is going to jail to Is that some of his friends? So let's do those people. That's some straight into today's headlines. All right, I'm gonna be honest with all the news that happened today, I don't think we have enough space for its in today's show. Yeah, we just don't. There's there's too many stories and I
don't know how this happened. You know, the news must have had some bad oysters or something because as the story is coming from all ends and it won't stop. So we don't have time. Fortunately, not enough time is just enough time for a segment we call Ain't nobody got time for that? All right, let's kick things up with some shocking news. A Trump associate has been arrested. I know, right, It's like, how many more are left? It feels like everyone around Trump has been put in cups.
His CFO, his lawyer, his campaign manager, his other campaign manager, his campaign manager after that, his deputy campaign manager, his fundraises, his advisers. Basically, every single person Donald Trump has ever met has gone to prison. And I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. Trevor Eric has never been to prison yet because that's because he never met him,
You dumbass, I said, mess. You realize now there enough Trump people in jail to start their own prison gang, right, there's gonna be like, yo, that's the Latin gags, that's the Arean brotherhood, and them over there that's the Trump cabinet man. Those amps are local, They're crazy. And now another Trump associate has been arrested for the second time. And Steve Bannon, yes Trump's former chief advisor, And what happens when you wait too long to clean out your fridge.
You see, he's in trouble for the in the state of New York, and what he's in trouble for probably won't surprise you at all. This morning, long time Trump advisor Steve Bannon facing a new criminal indictment as he
turns himself into authorities here in New York. Work accused of siphoning money from the group called We Build the Wall, an online campaign to build a section of President Trump's border wall that raised twenty five million dollars, the founders claiming that every penny would go to construction, promising those who donated a brick in the wall with their name on it. Prosecutors say instead, Bannon and his associates line
their pockets with large sums of that money. Bannon now calling the charges phony and a political weaponization of the criminal justice system, saying I Am never going to stop fighting. They will have to kill me first. Oh, they will have to kill me first. What a little bit. Why don't you go? How are you going to shootout with the cops. They have to kill me first. This guy's acting like a gangster while he's surrendering to the police. You'll never take me alive, Coppers. Please put the handcuffs
out gently. Yeah, my wrist are so soft. But yeah, once again, Steve Bannon is going to court over allegations that he defrauded Trump supporters over the wall. And can I just ask how long did the magacrowd are gonna keep falling for this ship? Huh? Trump's people have been fleecing them for seven straight years and still they're like, Don Junior shag he's two million dollars to reclaim he thrall, that's the prince of Nigeria. Let's give him the money, honey.
And just by the way, kudos to the prosecutors who even thought to investigate Steve Bennett for stealing millions of dollars, because I would like, I would have never suspected this guy. Yeah, looks like, yes, fifteen dollars. Look at him, millions of dollars. He looks like he sublets from Oscar the Grouch. I wouldn't have suspected him of having the money. Now, if we had the time, we could talk more about how instead of convincing Mega supports is that Trump World is
basically a hotbed of criminal activity. They're so drunk on his kool aid that instead it just convinces them that they're the most persecuted group in human history. Why do they keep charging us with crimes just because we keep committing crimes. It's not fair. But we don't have the time to talk about any of that, because while Trump's inner circles in trouble with the law, it turns out
that some of his biggest supporters are the all. The Anti Defamation League Center on Extremism has released a detailed membership list, it says for the far right militia group the Oath Keepers. It poured over thirty eight thousand names from the leaked list and says it found hundreds of current and former elected officials, law enforcement officers, first responders,
and members of the military. The a L says those names include eighty one people who were serving in or running for public office, three hundred and seventy three people believed to currently be serving in law enforcement agencies across our country, and one hundred and seventeen people currently serving in the U. S. Military. Right now, more than a dozen oath Keepers, including the group's founder, are facing charges for their roles in the January six riot. That's right.
Oath Keepers, a right wing extremist group, just have their membership leaked. Right The entire membership list was reached, and it turns out that hundreds of them are active members of the government, military, or law enforcements, which is pretty concerning. I want to get beaten up by a cop because he's put up some racist organization telling him to do it, you know, I wanted to beat me up because he's racist. For the love of the game, you know, do it
for yourself. How do you have a question though? Why why does the secretive group keep a list of everyone's name. It's just it's just careless, you know. Yeah, that's why they'll never run the world, Like the Illuminati. The Illuminati is smart. We don't make they don't make stupid mistakes like that. They'll never he'll never give it away, you laugh, Like I'm really in the Illuminati. You're like, we've got
to travel. I will say, it's getting hard to keep track of all of these extremist groups now, you know. It's like the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, the Patriot Front, like the list never ends. I actually feel bad for extremists, you know, because they're going to join all of these different groups, like they're subscribing to different streaming services. You know, why did they share accounts that can I jump on your account for the KKK plush? How can't afford all
these hate groups right now? Now, Look, we could talk more about how it almost doesn't matter that some elected officials are oathkeepers, because there's already a conspiratorial anti government ideology leading the Republican Party right now. But we don't have the time for that, because while some people are trying to overthrow the government, the city in Europe is trying to overthrow your diet. The Dutch city of Harlem
maybe the world's first to ban most meat advertising. The Green Links that's a green political party, is based opposition from the meat sector and some who say it stifles free speech, but it says the meat as need to be banned to prevent climate change. The Dutch are weird, No, they are like drugs are legal, but they're cracking down on meat. So what soon dealers in Amsterdam are going to be in the streets like here's your heroine. You'll meet me out back if you want some ribs man.
But yeah, a city in the Netherlands is banning meat ads because eating meats is a major contributor to climate change, and this is a big move because you know, meats advertisements have been around since the beginning of time. That's basically what the cave drawings were, right. I was like, yo, if you see this eats it, trust me and look, I get it. You don't want to encourage people to do something that's bad for the planet. You know. It's why we don't allow ads for Bobby's dream coal plants.
But I don't know about banning meat ads. What I do think they should do is make meat as a less sexual Maybe that should be the law, you know what I'm talking about, Especially in America, every fast food commercial is like, you know, you want our juicy beef patties in your mouth. It's like so big and media if your nuggets in our special sauce, Daddy, it's the damn Wendy's up with my nephew, Chill. I'll call you
after now. If we had more time, we could talk about why so little climate policy focuses on the livestock industry, even though it counts for around fifteen percent of old greenhouse gas emissions. I mean, we wi allways here about how the cows emit methane, and I'm sure the cows are like, how about you stop eating us first, then we can talk about whether or not we should stop foxing. But we don't have the time for that, because while the Dutch are getting rid of meat, a Texas judge
is getting rid of gay people's healthcare. A new ruling in Texas today is dealing a sucker punch to a key provision of the Affordable Care Act. A federal judge says that employers are not required to cover drugs that prevent HIV infections in their healthcare plans, adding that mandated coverage by the government of those medications violates their religious beliefs. This is a lawsuit brought by a group of Christian conservatives.
Their argument, literally, one of their arguments they made is they don't want to pay for these drugs because they quote facilitate or encourage homosexual behavior, which is contrary to
their religious beliefs. Yeah, you heard that right. A Texas court says religious employers don't have to include HIV medication in their healthcare plan because then the employees might be more likely to have gay sex, and this would violate the employers rights because it makes the employer complicit in the gay sex, which is the most ridiculous argument I've ever heard in my life. Yeah, because then by that logic, where do you where do you draw the line? Huh?
Employers can say that any medical coverage makes gay sex more likely. I exams. Oh so you want to see more manager have gay sex with how everything? Physical therapy? Oh, so you'll have the stamina for more gay sex. Dental insurance, so you'll have a nice smile that will make me want to have gay sex with you. Knife Try Gary, Nice, Try. And you know this is the kind of religious exemption that only evangelical Christians get to claim. I'll be like, Oh,
we're Christians, so we can discriminate. Let's see what happens the first time a Muslim employer says I'm not gonna pay my workers. What if they use the money to buy bacon? I can tell you now, No, Texas judge, You're gonna be like, Wow, who are mad of question the teachings of Allah? Who am I? Also, for the record, wasn't Jesus the one curing lepers for free? Uh? He wasn't showing up asking questions like yo, before I hear you you can get this leprosy from doing but stuff? Right?
I just want to make sure now. Obviously, we could definitely talk more about how the notion of religious liberty has been expanded so much in this country that not basically allows conservatives to discriminate against anyone, But we don't have the time for that because there was one story that came in and conquered all the other news, and it's about the Queen. We do have this breaking news
just coming in from Buckingham Palace. Queen Elizabeth the Second has died, just hours after her doctor said they were concerned for her health. The nine year old Queen has been at Melmorrel Castle in Scotland, among the people with her at Bellmorral, her four children, Andrew, Ann, Edward and Charles, who is now officially king, automatically ascending to the throne upon the announcement of his mother's death. The Queen, of course, the longest reigning monarch and British history, and one of
the longest reigning ever. The Queen has died and longly the king. Yes, it's official. At the age of ninety six, Queen Elizabeth the Second passed away today. You know, I'm not I'm not gonna lie. It's been interesting to see how varied. The reactions to this news have been, you know, the full spectrum of emotions, everything from how will the kingdom carry on? All the way to you shouldn't have got anized India by a bitch. It's been really broad.
But whatever you think about the royal family or the monarchy, you've got to admit it's insane how long Elizabeth sat on the throne. She came to power in fifty two. You understand how long that is. That means she's seen Adam West as Batman, Michael Keaton as Batman, Christian Bale as Batman, Ben Athleck as Batman, survived that, and then saw Robert Pattinson as Batman. And look, I'm sure there's a better wa to measure time then in Batman, but you get it. She's been in the game for a minute.
And on top of that, on top of that, she was a queen, real deal. Because these days that term gets thrown around way too much. You just post a photo of your smoothly online, everyone's like, yes, self care queen. No, that doesn't make you a queen. You're a duchess of self care. Best now, in case you're wondering, Prince Charles is now going to be the king, which, let's be honest,
is much better than being prince. I mean he's no, he's seventy three years old, all right, and until today he still had the same title, has his own grandchildren. That was weird, and the world wasn't made for an old prince, I can tell you now. There's no one in a Disney movie who's like, someday, my prince will come and he'll wear off the painted shoes and he caught this cheese fibery mail. Like. Charles is so old he's gonna be the first royal to us send the
throne in one of those motorized stair lifts. That's how old he is. And look, if we had the time, we could talk about how this might be a good time for Britain to consider whether it wants King Charles on its currency, or maybe this might be a good time to call it quits on the whole monarchy as we know it. But we just do not have the time for that, because there is one ruler we must honors,
and that is our majesty. The advertisers don't go away, because when we come back, Datiltic will be explaining what the hell Fox, and you're just talking about Google all that. He Welcome back to the Daily Show. It has been one month since the FBI raided Donald Trump's beautiful Marilago home and stole his beautiful top secret documents, and we're still getting new information every day, Like it just came out that one of the documents in Trump's possession had
secret information about a foreign country's nuclear defense capabilities. Yeah, so now America needs to send out lets just to every country in the world, like those ones you get from your credit card company, and you know what it's like. So there was a data breach and you're probably gonna want to change your nuclear codes. But even if you think you've been following the story closely, you haven't really unless you know how they're covering it on Fox News.
So for that perspective, here's Das Eelidic with another installments of Fox Plaines. What is the secret document scandal really about? Why is it happening now? On a scale of one's the most innocent man who's ever lived? How innocent is Donald Trump? Where I've been wanting Fox News for twenty six days straight and I'm ready to Fox plain the biggest witch hunt since Dorothy's skipped down that yellow brick road with a robot hip. Urry, people, this wasn't a search,
this was a ray. The woke at BI snatched the window and broken and a Garland took a bubble bath and Trump's tub and erased everything on his DVR. He was catching up on Abbot Elementary Merrick. What Donald Trump did was normal. Everyone brings work home, even when they no longer work. There after I got fired from H and M, I brought home an entire cash register. It is totally normal and not illegal. Joe Brandon's Department of Justice is out of control. Congratulations, FBI, you did it.
You found Milannia's top secret underwear. Can I see it? Seriously? Donald Trump took documents, documents. This is no worse than what Hilary did, which was terrible and she should go to prison, which is why Trump should not go to prison. Do I have to list why it's okay that he has the documents? Okay? Attorney client privilege, executive privilege, white privilege, diplomatic community up the Kavanaugh hearings. Trump is technically still the president because he never gave us two weeks Thodice
double Jeopardy. That's gotta get thing right. Seriously, we're prosecuting Trump on the espionage actor, trying to get an American president on a French word. I don't think so, picking a pew no huh no, no, no, no, America. If you are not so outraged that you forgot to pick your children up from school every day last week, then you are not paying attention. Where's the raid on Hunter Biden's laptop? Oh right, the laptop is sitting at a five star hotel getting a massage and eating caviar for
from China. If they indict Trump for this, there will be riots in the streets, and if they don't die him, there will also be riots in the streets, just like on January six, which is not a riot. It was a normal tourist activity, which is good or bad either way. I will not be picking up my kids from school that day. Sorry, sweets. This is just another deep state hoax and a major distraction from the real story. Joe Biden gave a speech when it was dark out. That's
all for this week by everyone. Merrick Garland is a space elf. Thank you so much for that, because when we come back, President Biden's Secretary Show, don't go off. Welcome back to the Day to Show. My guests, like is a member of President Biden's cabinets in charge of the U S Department of Labor. Please welcome Labor Secretary Marty Walsh. Than Secretary Walsh, Welcome back to the Day Show. It's great to be here. A lot's happened in five years,
It really has. I mean, the last time you were here, you were the mayor of Boston, and now you have come back and you are the Labor of Secretary, which means that you do what exactly I run all the jobs in America. Yeah, it seems like America is doing a good job right now with the jobs. You know, Obviously, COVID was one of the worst periods that the world has seen. You know, millions of people lost their jobs. The economy was in tattas. Now things are coming up,
but it's an interesting time. The administration wants to get people working, and more importantly, the administration wants to get people working in jobs that actually allow them to earn a living, which is key because I think many people have jobs. Not everybody can earn a living from the jobs that they have. The true statement you know, and so at the same time, you have the FED who's
trying to shrink how much money people can earn. It's a really good time to be in the job market right now because you can earn a lot of money. But it seems like in trying to control interest rates there are conflicting interests. How do you how do you deal with this? Yeah, well, the the FED is their own plan and they're working to bring down inflationary pressures that everyone in this audience and around the country of feeling. And President Biden rolled out a plan as well to
to to deal with inflation. One is gas, and we've seen for nine straight weeks in row gas prices come down. I'm I'm of the camp that, you know, a good paying job is important for America. It's good for people. Uh. And I know that there's some feed is said at some point, you know, having a little bit unemployment might be good. I actually want to do everything I can to get more people working. We've had two amazing months
in a row of job gain the United States. I want to continue to see that trend that wants people to move from from jobs to paying mediocre into better paying jobs. I want to see people to use their power with their companies to earn better wages. You know, at the end of the day, it's it's about keeping people working and that that what moves our economy, more money into the economy, and I think the President wants
they see these jobs being still being created. Is America's focus on protecting the jobs or protecting the people who are meant to be in those jobs. And the reason I asked that is because I've noticed that different countries have different approaches, you know, when it comes to this. For instance, um in Sweden and in some Scandinavian country they're really proud of saying, look, we don't actually care
about the jobs themselves. We care about the people and we just want to make sure that people can earn a living wage and will move them around. In America, it feels like a lot of the conflict comes from the fact that people are trying to protect the jobs. I'm a coal minor, you know what I mean. I'm a railway worker, I'm a policeman, I'm a and and now the job is almost entrenched, when in fact the person is the is the thing you're trying to protect.
How do you find that balance? You're trying to protect the job. It's very different. I mean, in Europe, a lot of European countries when the pandemic began, people were sent home, they were paid a salary from their employer, and they didn't lose their work. Here in the United States of America, ten million people got laid off. People were sent home. That's why they had to put out
the extra help for people that want unemployment. I think in the United States we're trying to shift towards making sure that we're treating people failing and creating good opportunities for those folks that they're not concerned about that particular job that if they lose that job, their life is over. And I think that we have to do a better job of scaling people up and training people up. We're looking at the apprentice model quite honestly that Switzerland has,
and and Denmark has, all of these countries have. You know, they're more into apprenticeships than we are. We're more into job training. And then you get thrown into the job and you better do it. If you don't do it, you don't work there. You know, having these apprenticeships and changing that mindset. So we're catching young people earlier. Two
kids that don't go to college. When they graduate high school and don't go to college, they might get a job at a fast food restaurant and some place like that. Now we need to get those folks, those young people into apprenticeships to get into good paying jobs moving forward. Also, you know, in America we tend to be get a two weeks vacation, and we we work fifty two fifty
weeks a year, we get that two weeks vacation. If you could to another country in the world, European country, they get five six seven weeks holiday and they go out and they enjoy themselves, and the companies are still
successful and productive. So I think that I think that hopefully some of these companies that are making big money realizing that, you know, you need to spend some of that on your employees, because if you have good employees and strong employees and happy employees, it will benefit the company overall. It's a buil talking to you, so I get to go there. Before to go, I would love
to know your opinion on this. Gen Z has been leading the charge in re establishing what work should be and how people should think about it in their lives, you know. And one of the one of the terms that's become quite buzzy now is quiet quitting. People say I only need to work as much as I need to work to get my salary. For too long, people in America have going like, I work over to the last one in the office, I don't sleep, my family
hates me. People are proud of that. And now gen Z is saying, no, actually, I will work for what I'm paid for and then I will go and I will live my life. Many companies are saying this is the worst thing that could happen. Where do you stand on this? As the secretary of Let me just say, the first time I was asked the question about about quiet quitting, I really had I thought it was people
like quitting and leaving. So I gave, I gave an answer, and it was I looked like a complete moron and it but and then I looked at what it was after the fact, Um, you know again, that goes back to I think it goes back to employers understanding about how they need to know their workforce and need to have conversations with their workforce and need to make sure that it workforce is understands what the mission is and
also is treated fairly. And I think that that that has to happen when when I became the mayor of Boston, you know, the biggest group of folks that I brought in with millennials and millennials quite honestly, in the beginning, we jump from job to job, the job here for ten minutes to go to new job after that, and it took me some time to sit down and talk about what what is it exactly that we can do here in the city of Boston as as the city
to keep you working in the workforce. And I think having those conversations with your employees is so important for a corporation or even for government somebody like me, myself or other elected officials. We need to have those conversations because the quiet quitting piece. Um. You know, you're expecting when you hire somebody to work hot and do the right thing. But if they're not and there's a reason for it, let's let's get to the heart of what what the what the what the reason is? Thank you
so much for joining, wonderful boy. We'll hold you right back after this like it's so much. We'll not talk up let's chick. What's the Daily Show? Eleven Central, Armed, Comedy Central in stream full episodes anytime, I'll on Paramount Plus. This has been a Comedy Central podcast
