Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Comedy Central. From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, it's America's only source for news. This is The Daily Show. I'm Roy Chang. We've got so much to talk about tonight. Donald Trump tells DEI to GTFO. The Constitution lives to see another day. And there's finally a good reason not to get a face tattoo.
Starting point is 00:00:45 So let's get into another edition of the second coming of Donald J. Trump. It's almost the end of Trump's first week in office and he's done a lot. He shut down windmills, he saved TikTok, he caught common San Diego and the man just can't stop won't stop. On Monday he wiped out all federal DI programs and yesterday he ordered that if anyone, anyone, if you see anyone trying to be inclusive, you better tell teacher. The Trump administration asking federal workers to snitch on their coworkers
Starting point is 00:01:29 in a rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. Employees have been told to report any colleagues who work in diversity, equity, and inclusion roles, or they could face consequences. NBC News obtained emails sent to multiple agencies that say some of these programs are disguised using coded or imprecise language. Yeah, you hear that?
Starting point is 00:01:48 Don't even think about doing DI in secret, all right? Don't be meeting up in back alleys like, yo, yo, you got any lesbian resumes for me today? Yeah. And I know you think DI was only invented in 2020 by Democrats looking for a fresh new way to lose elections, but Donald Trump is dedicated to rooting out DEI all throughout history.
Starting point is 00:02:12 One of the president's executive orders revokes an executive order signed by President Lyndon Johnson in 1965 that the Trump administration says mandated affirmative action. That's right, Donald Trump went back in time to kill baby DEI. It's kind of impressive that he got this much focus. Trump is doing deep dives into these obscure old policies like he's MAGA John Oliver.
Starting point is 00:02:35 And look, I'm not going to pretend to know more about civil rights law than Donald Trump. I mean, he's been sued over it many times. But if a discrimination law has been around since 1965, it might be a load-bearing civil rights thing, so maybe don't touch it. But DI is not the only thing Trump is shutting down. He's also shutting down illegal immigration.
Starting point is 00:03:00 In fact, it was probably the biggest thing he talked about during the campaign, aside from Arnold Palmer's penis, which is actually a thing that happened. But today Trump faced his first setback. Breaking news out of Seattle. A federal judge has just temporarily blocked President Trump's order attempting to end birthright citizenship. The judge in this case is saying that they have been on the bench for over four decades.
Starting point is 00:03:23 And this is a quote from the judge inside the courtroom. I can't remember another case where the question presented is as clear as this one. This is a blatantly unconstitutional order. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What does the constitution have to do with this? The constitution is for gun stuff, okay? Who died and made this woke activist a judge, huh?
Starting point is 00:03:45 Oh, Ronald Reagan. That liberal cuck. This judge has been judging for four decades and has never seen something, and I quote, so blatantly unconstitutional. I mean, that's like the judge equivalent of a Kendrick Disstrack. Like, all the other judges were like, oh, shit, we concur!
Starting point is 00:04:14 Usually the judge says this is constitutional or unconstitutional, okay? But this is like next level unconstitutional. This is like if you took a pregnancy test and it said, you are the least pregnant anyone's ever been in 40 years. But Trump doesn't expect all these executive orders to pass legal scrutiny. He's signing those things the way like guys swipe right on every Tinder profile. Okay? Yo, he just needs one or two to hit and that's the weekend baby. The point is Trump is gonna try whatever he can to shut the border down and last night Trump sat down for some
Starting point is 00:04:50 Conversation and light man spreading with Sean Hannity to explain why in an Oval Office sit-down last night President Trump repeated false claims that other countries are sending their prisoners here. They've emptied their jails I would if I were the president or prime minister or something of another country, I'd empty my jails right into America. You did do that. Like three days ago. With the,
Starting point is 00:05:30 with the Gen 6 thing, remember? That guy handed you all those cheesecake factory menus and you signed them all? That was the thing. But look, Trump doesn't care whether migrants are technically criminals or not. Because he can tell just by looking at them. Sean who would ask for open borders with people pouring in some of whom I won't get into it but you can look at them and you can say could be trouble could be trouble there are people coming in with tattoos all over their face their Their entire face is covered with tattoos. Typically, you know he's not gonna be
Starting point is 00:06:08 the head of the local bank. Breaking news, old man not fan of tattoos. And yeah, probably the guys with face tattoos aren't gonna be bankers. But maybe bankers should have face tattoos. I mean, one tear drop for every loan application they've denied. Hey, stay clear of JP Morgan, that guy's loco.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Now, obviously immigration is a complex issue, so I wanted to find a reporter with some real expertise. So for more on the border crackdown, please welcome back senior Latino correspondent, Al Madrigal. I feel like it's been a few years where have you been? I've been in the back nothing's come up. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Well, tell us what's going on right now. Ron, it's obviously a difficult time. And if I can, I'd like to speak out in defense of the hardworking Americans who have been unfairly denigrated by Donald Trump. Well, obviously, you're referring to undocumented immigrants. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Not immigrants. I'm talking about Americans with face tattoos. Some of our greatest citizens have tatted up domes. Mike Tyson, Post Malone, the barista at Blue Bottle who won't follow me back on Instagram. Face tattooed Americans do the jobs the rest of us don't want. Like working in a weed dispensary.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Or doing guest verses on a Doja Cat single. And if you get rid of people with face tattoos, who the f*** is gonna live in Albuquerque? Okay, I thought you were gonna tell us about about the new U.S. immigration policy. What are you talking about? America doesn't have an immigration policy. America has immigration reactions. What do you mean? We don't know what we want from immigrants. We want to keep them away from our kids, but we also want them to raise our kids. They can't have our health care, but we depend on them for affordable lawn care.
Starting point is 00:08:30 We hate drug trafficking. But we love drugs, man. So until we have actual policy, immigrants are going to have to lay low for 1,458 days. But who's counting? Okay, that's a long time. Do you think immigrants have a plan besides keeping their heads down? I will say this. If Latino immigrants are smart, they'll shift their attention to non-Latino immigrants.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Excuse me, Mom. Hi. Uh, D.I. Snitchline. I would like to report an Asian from Australia hosting The Daily Show. Hmm? the Daily Show. Yes, he is very easy to recognize. Super shifty. Just had a Netflix special and he's got like five different accents rolled into one. Wait, are you talking about me?
Starting point is 00:09:46 Dude, I brought you on the show. Oh yeah. He also brought a Latino to do work for him. Super handsome. Hasn't been here for years. Okay, look, it was a mistake to bring you back. Get out of here, Al Madrigal. Al Madrigal, everybody.

Starting point is 00:10:32 Studies show that other people also have opinions. So here with another installment of In My Opinion is our good friend Charlamagne the God. -♪ Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, who out at the wrong targets. Snoop Dogg, Nelly, are facing backlash right now after performing at Donald Trump's inauguration party today. Fans took to X to express their anger with one user saying that they no longer respected the artist for participating. Snoop performing during Trump's inaugural weekend?
Starting point is 00:11:21 Not this Snoop Dogg. Yeah, everyone's talking about Snoop and Nelly. I knew Trump would take America backwards, but I didn't think it would be the 2003. People, please, stop wasting your energy attacking old-school rappers. The only thing they did wrong is inspire Mark Zuckerberg's new look.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Yeah. He looks like Flavor Flav if the flavor was mayonnaise. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Look, man, the reason people are mad is because back in 2017, Snoop denounced artists who played Trump's first inauguration. But in his defense, you think Snoop remembers 2017? Snoop remembers 2017?
Starting point is 00:12:05 Snoop has burned more trees than the LA wildfires. And look, and don't get me wrong, you should be angry at people suddenly making nice with Donald Trump. But instead of Snoop and Nellie, what about the Democratic politicians who spent four years calling Trump the new aid off Hitler and then started doing stuff like this. President Biden welcoming his successor to the White House observed all the traditional
Starting point is 00:12:29 niceties. Joe Biden greeting Donald Trump at the White House with two words, welcome home. There were smiles, there were handshakes. I mean, there was a real respect between the two. This moment between former president Barack Obama and president-elect Donald Trump has gone viral. They chuckled like old buddies. Trump even made Obama laugh.
Starting point is 00:12:50 I'm sorry. If you tell us someone is Hitler, you at least have to act like he's Hitler. I know when Barack got home, Michelle was like, he-he-hell. So Hitler got jokes, huh? In fact, here's the energy I wanted to see more of on Monday. All these journalists are like, Congresswoman, are you going to the inauguration?
Starting point is 00:13:10 Congresswoman, are you going to the inauguration? Are you going to the inauguration? Let me make myself clear. I don't celebrate rapists. So, no, I'm not going to the inauguration tomorrow. See? Yeah. Yes. So no, I'm not going to the inauguration tomorrow. See? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:26 That's right. That's right. That right there, that's backbone. That's principles. Man, I'm gonna miss AOC when she's deported to Nicaragua. So what am I saying here? What am I saying here? Democrats shouldn't have shown up to the inauguration. Yes, bitch, that's exactly what I I saying here? What am I saying here? Democrats shouldn't have shown up to the inauguration?
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yes, bitch, that's exactly what I'm saying. And maybe you're thinking, what's wrong with being civil to your opposition? That's just political norms. Politics haven't been normal since Trump came down that ugly-ass escalator, and eight years later, it seems like Republicans are the only ones who realize that.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Think about this for a second. Trump lied for years about the 2020 election being stolen, and he gained supporters by living his life as if that lie was true. Meanwhile, the Democrats told the truth about Trump being a threat to democracy, but now that the election's over, they're living like it isn't true.
Starting point is 00:14:18 In fact, they're saying they can get along with him. We could work together. I will work with anybody who wants to be a good partner. I'm not the leader of the resistance. I will never back away from partnering with the Trump administration where our priorities align. I don't want to pretend we're always going to agree, but I will always seek collaboration first.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Collaboration? Really? You called him Hitler, but now you're saying that Hitler has some good ideas? That's the same thing Kanye said, and we don't even let him make sneakers anymore. What are you even gonna collaborate on? Are you gonna make sure the immigrant concentration camps
Starting point is 00:14:58 run on solar power? Listen, man. Donald Trump won this election by a little over 2 million votes and Democrats are acting like he's unstoppable. Do you remember how Republicans acted when Biden won by 7 million votes? Republican senators are vowing to use the filibuster to derail President Biden's legislative agenda. 100% of our focus is on stopping this new administration. I want to make Joe Biden a one-half term president.
Starting point is 00:15:31 On January 21st, I will be filing articles of impeachment on Joe Biden. You see that? That's what you call being space laser focused. Okay? Okay? are being space laser focused. Okay? Okay? They tried to impeach Biden on day one for the crime of getting elected. I like that energy though. I like it.
Starting point is 00:15:55 They weren't worried about alienating Democrats. They said, f*** Democrats. They wrought up their base and it worked. Today, Democrats are patting themselves on the back for allowing a peaceful transfer of power. And I have no problem with conceding the election, but don't concede the Constitution. Yes.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Yeah. So... So... Democrats, Democrats, I am begging you for once, treat Republicans the way they treat you, and treat Trump as if you believed everything you said about him is true. The four days we've just seen
Starting point is 00:16:30 shows us where all this is going. When there's a train speeding toward a cliff, people don't want you going, I'm gonna work with the conductor to fix the Wi-Fi. They want you to stop the damn train. So yeah, I'm not wasting my time being mad at Snoop Dogg. I'm mad at the Democrats for acting like they're the ones too high to remember anything they said in the campaign.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Democrats better get focused. Midterms are 21 months away. So y'all need to take that frolicking with fascist bullshit and drop it like it's hot. Yeah, that's it. That's it. Tonya Minajad, everybody. When we come back, Al Mad is going to join me on the show, so don't go away. Welcome back to The Daily Show.

Starting point is 00:17:47 Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!
Starting point is 00:17:54 Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!
Starting point is 00:18:00 Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! You haven't been in this building in years. I think nine years. We were talking about it in a lot of the same faces. It's great. That's what I love about, one of the things I love about the show is the strong alumni network.
Starting point is 00:18:12 It really is incredible when you think about, you know, all the people that we were with. We had a little bit of crossover. So right when I was leaving, you came in, Roy came in, Klepper had been there for a bit as he was coming in yeah yeah but then yeah it was it's a strong group yeah when I came in you get you you gave me tons of great advice man and look I saw
Starting point is 00:18:34 and then I be hosted the show yeah yeah no this guy this guy gave me like tons of little you told me all the, this guy gave me, like, tons of little... You told me all the secret hiding places. You literally were like, this is where you go when you need to practice your script before the show. Oh, yeah, in the back. Totally. We'd run it. I was just back there.
Starting point is 00:18:54 And you sent me this chain letter of correspondent chain letter. So I had done a TV show, a sitcom, with Rob Riggle. Yes. And then asked him for advice and Rob was so great. And Rob was also a former correspondent. And he dug up Colbert's notes on Field Pieces and sent me this great text.
Starting point is 00:19:16 And then I passed it on to you and Roy and Desi and then you passed it on to the new people. But it's this thing that gets passed on. Yeah. I shared it with Kosta not knowing that you had already shared it. Yeah, yeah. And that's the thing that gets passed on. I shared it with Kosta not knowing that you had already shared it. Yeah, yeah. And that's the thing. It's chain-lettered that if you don't pass on now,
Starting point is 00:19:28 you get cursed to death. It's like a presidential thing with just tips for correspondents. I'll never forget John Oliver, first day, grabs me and said, because when you do these field pieces, you said you need to live in the edit. So you need to make sure that you realize where you're going to cut and what you need to say.
Starting point is 00:19:50 But one of the most important things I learned was never to let one of the producers drive. Um... You mean drive the car. Drive the rental car. These guys all live in Manhattan. They don't have cars. So you're doing like a nine point turn in an intersection. You're like, what are you doing?
Starting point is 00:20:11 In like Kansas or something. Totally, we're gonna get shot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Into people's driveways, yeah. And that's the thing, it's all these very specific tips that no one else understands because it's this Daily Show correspondent thing. And now you're on Lopez vs. Lopez. Yeah. Can you tell us about that show?
Starting point is 00:20:28 I mean, it's a multi-cam on NBC. It's on Friday nights at 8.30. I play Stoner Friend, and, um... I had no idea that that was a dream of mine. But it's pretty awesome, because I'm a method actor. Uh-huh. Yeah. Yeah, and you...
Starting point is 00:20:50 Whoo! What? No, it really is. It allows me to do all the other things that you know I do. I have a business. I write a lot, so it... you're kind of done by noon. Oh, you mean being on the show. Being on a multi-cam is the greatest gig of all time.
Starting point is 00:21:12 Okay. And I'm working with George Lopez, which is very cool. And if you haven't watched the show, there's a lot of real-life trauma that he and his daughter are working out. So it's a very unique show showing that you see things happening. Even in rehearsals really oh this is very real and this is very emotional and they're going through some stuff while
Starting point is 00:21:34 they're making this thing so it really is incredible. Wait wait OK so hit him and his daughter actually having oh he was they were said he to you know, left her. They got divorced, mom and, you know, got divorced from George. And he took off and came back, and that's the premise of our show. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:53 But that's real life. So the show is literally live therapy. Pretty much. No, it really is. And with a ton of jokes, and it's very funny. It's like, iconic comedy. It's a multi-cam sitcom, but it's still a real... You're dealing with some heavy stuff.
Starting point is 00:22:07 Damn. And I mean, you, did you know Josh Lopez before you got on the show? I was like, I had a Mean Joe Green moment with him. That's an old reference for a lot of people. Yeah, no one gets that one. But... He would, and his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, I knew friends of friends that were going.
Starting point is 00:22:25 And I was the only like young Latino stand-up comedian there. And he was doing a shot with all his buddies and gave me one of these like, I see you over there. Oh, he gave you a band. I was like, oh, cool. And now I'm on the show. Now we're driving around in a golf cart, you know, hanging out. And he's like a he's like a not just a Latino comedy legend.
Starting point is 00:22:44 He's like a, he's like a, not just a Latino comedy legend, he's like a comedy legend. He's one of the comedy legends. He's, you know, he's selling out massive theaters. Yeah, how is he on set? Is he cool? He's super cool. You know, you're working with this icon, you know, so he's like, hey, do it like this. And you're like, okay, guy who's shot a tremendous amount of these shows, yeah, I'll do it like that. And I mean, the other thing is that you... And, plus, I'm a stoner friend. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:23:07 I don't care how you want me to do it. I'll do it. Yeah. Yeah. All your weed becomes tax-deductible at this point, because it's for what? Yeah, there you go. That is smart. My business manager is watching.
Starting point is 00:23:22 Yeah, tax-ded. Weed on this. And also you're living in Los Angeles, you moved to Los Angeles. Correct, yeah, from San Francisco I moved in. You're raised to hate Los Angeles if you live in San Francisco. Well, if you hate LA, it's probably, you know, there's some good news for you I guess. Well, no, it's, I don't, some people are happy about it. That's what I mean... Some people are happy about it. That's what I want to talk about. It's terrible.
Starting point is 00:23:47 No, I mean, I don't. I think it's terrible. I'm saying if you hate. Anyway, so... So, is it okay in... Is everything okay now? I live in Pasadena, which is very adjacent to Altadena, and a lot of Pasadena burnt down, so it's very scary.
Starting point is 00:23:59 Air quality is horrible. Yeah. They definitely need help still. So many people have been displaced. I know that we're watching this shot of Malibu and into the Palisades and you assume they're all 15, 20 million dollar homes and there's just a lot of regular people who had all of their money in these houses and it's this country's largest fire. It burned for seven days and is still burning. There's a new fire that just started up.
Starting point is 00:24:27 So this isn't stopping anytime soon. And it's... Yeah, it's historically bad. It's the worst fire in... But the point I wanted to make is I love LA. Moving down there, every single type of person lives in Los Angeles. It really is incredible.
Starting point is 00:24:44 Like there's's no matter who you are, I guarantee you could find that community in LA. Our population is comparable to the entire state of Georgia. Though there is a it's a really big city with a lot of different folks. So yes, I hate the Bieber smoothie drinking, boot boot wearing superficial influencer that you imagine we all are, but. There's a lot of great real people. Well, is it gonna in your assessment, I mean, I guess, is it gonna come back? You live. I mean, think about it.
Starting point is 00:25:20 How can it not in a way where it's like been developed by like this large corporation because you can't have with as many homes as burnt down, how could you have 500 different contractors building these things? Where are you gonna get the supplies from? Sure. And the Napa fires in Northern California, they're just getting checks.
Starting point is 00:25:42 They're just getting that resolved. And so it's pretty upsetting. It's going to be a long road back. And your mortgage doesn't go away. You have to still keep paying your mortgage on your burnt lot or the bank takes it. So it's a... So no, it's not coming back.
Starting point is 00:25:57 It's going to take a long, long time. And hopefully the resources are there to help. Well, you're in LA, and you said, you told me before you came on the show that you could feel people kind of mobilizing to do it. That part has been absolutely incredible. The community has come together like I've never seen in, it's just somehow packing go bags
Starting point is 00:26:20 really puts a lot of success in it. So... Would you... No, that's good news, but, like, would you have thought that before you saw it happen? Would you ever have thought that L.A. could come together and cooperate on this level? Well, it's really interesting. It's like, yeah, L.A. just really... Everyone stays in their own little bubble.
Starting point is 00:26:38 And so, yeah, you don't see many people, you know, working together like this. And it's upsetting that it took a tragedy, but it really is unbelievable watching everybody come. I had a buddy in Vegas who owns a car dealership organize, he dropped off five huge pallets of water because the air is bad, the water is bad. Do you think about all of the things that have melted and are now in the atmosphere and are now in the drinking water. People are telling us not to bathe in it for any extended period of time.
Starting point is 00:27:09 You can't walk outside without a mask. Ash is on top of my house like you'd see sand dead on a windshield at the beach. It's crazy. Yeah, and I think that's one of the things. I mean, not being from America, for me, like, sometimes I'm like, it's because there's so much resources here to help people and there's the will.
Starting point is 00:27:28 You know, there's good people on the ground in Los Angeles who live there, you know, face to face. But it feels like it's hard to coordinate everybody because no one trusts the government response. And so you have this very inefficient kind of, you know... I will tell you this. I think 50% of my block probably votes Republican. Those people would run down to my house in a heartbeat if anything was wrong.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Because you also vote Republican. Because I also vote Republican. Shut up! Listen, so you've been volunteering with the Pasadena Jobs Center? Yeah, the Pasadena Community Job Center? The Pasadena Community Job Center is amazing. They had 1,000 volunteers on the weekend.
