Summary

Jon Stewart digs into Trump claiming he's the acting president of Venezuela, dividing the country's oil between energy companies, and saber-rattling at Iran and Greenland. Jon also calls out MAGA's hypocrisy when it comes to the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent vs. the January 6 insurrection. Jordan Klepper tackles RFK Jr.'s upside-down food pyramid, Pete Hegseth's latest alleged war crime, and the people of Minnesota fighting back against ICE. Plus, Klepper covers the president's push to take over Greenland and examines MAGA's criticisms of Mamdani's first two weeks in office as NYC mayor. Learn more about your ad choices.
