So y'all just gonna talk about me why I'm not there, why I can't defend myself. I'm so sick of it. Yeah, they don't mention me at all. Yeah, they didn't mention you at all. They didn't love you. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:03:44 That's pretty cool. I mean, I do. I mean, when is the world going to realize that that I've, when it's this world of this industry going to realize that I bring joy? You know what I think? I think everybody think it's a fluke. I think everybody think it's like an act that people that people put on like thi everybody. th th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi thi, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when, when is their their, when is like, when, when, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when, when is, when is, when is, when is, when, when, when, when is the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their, when is, when is their, when is their, when is, when is their, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when is, when no, I'm gonna go in, I'm gonna be, and it's like, no, you guys don't understand that I used to be like, not a fucked up person, but not a happy one, and I had to fight my way to a positive stand, and that's just what I emulate now, I really do. Yeah. I mean, I'm not saying it's always great, you know that, but you know, what I emulate was something that really really thuu. thi. thi. their thi. thi. thi. their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their, thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, to. I'm, to. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm not, th. And, th. I'm not, not, not, not, th. I'm not, that really had to be built. I also think that people don't understand that when you come in, they're expecting one thing, but you give them so much more than they originally expected. I give them what they, see, they think they know the joke until I do the actual joke, and then they go, oh, that's what we wanted.
Starting point is 00:04:40 But also you come in and add to the joke. It's like, you know, the special sauce kind of thing. You have that as well. Not only can you execute what they give you, you had some special sauce, you know, the team comes in and it's also an energy that you bring. So like it's another level and these guys, some people say it. This, that's why I love about this building like when we come in, like they see this. And it shows, you win awards. So it's like, hey, other people out there, maybe you should figure out how the daily show works with you, so maybe you can recreate that for your own little environment. And then when she comes in, you can get that magic too, the way you want it, and the way she likes it. And the way to create that is to like your job. Yeah. The reason I'd like coming here is here that that that that th, th, th, that th, th, th, th is to like your job. Yeah. The reason I like coming here is because everybody loves their job. Everybody stays in the lane of their job and does it well.
Starting point is 00:05:30 That's what I like. When I go to other places that faking it to they make it, or either they're trying to be something else and they're just doing this for right now, or they just really don't give a fuck. Yeah, I agree. And you know, yeah, and they care about the world. I mean, you know, all the stuff that we do here. Like this week you came in to talk it, you know, about giving your take on the choices we make and why are they harmful to us. America is on the path to doing something really, really stupid. How about for at least this election, for this one thing, let's not do the obviously stupid thing
Starting point is 00:06:13 that we know we shouldn't do. And that means you're going to have to put in some effort. It means getting involved in the political process. It means not sitting on your ass just because you're not in love with the choices. I know you like fast food, but this time, let's eat a carrot instead of voting for a guy who looks like a carry.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Like, we gotta make good choices here, people. It's not, you can't let one-third of the country just dominate. We all gotta get involved in good choices for our future. So talk about that, like you, like you you, like you's, like thiiiiiiiii, like that like that like that like thi, like thi, like thi, like to to to to to be, like, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be, to be to be to be to be a to be a to be a to be a to be a to, to, to, to, to to, to to to to to to to be to to be to be to be to be to be to, the country just dominate. We all got to get involved in good choices for our future. So talk about that like you, it's important to you like to, hey, to be a voice to say, wake up. Like, I just want everybody to have some damn come. Just sit down for a minute and breathe. Take some breathing in and look at what you contribute into the world and look at what decisions
Starting point is 00:07:06 we're actually making in this world. Yeah. Like how do you not look at Trump and not see criminal? Well is it, do you think it's apathy, laziness, or insanity? I think it's uneducation. That's what I think. I think it's uneducation and I think I think it's I think that it's what they're fed? What type of, like you could go into to go go go into to go into to go into to go in to go in to go in to go in to go in to go in to go in to go in their their to go in their th. th. th. thi in thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their,, I think that it's what they're fed. What type of, like, you could go into different states and they have different type of news media. And I think a lot of people are not being fed, the right information. I agree. So, so it, and when people say like that cult thing,
Starting point is 00:07:38 that it's almost like not even so much as a cult as much as like, how can I put it, it's like, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, how can I put it, it's like pieces of shit that's been doing piece of shit stuff, and then a big piece of shit comes and says, hey, it's okay to be a piece of shit. Does that make sense? I can't explain that any other way. Like people feel so- And we all do the toilet. Yeah, no, but because people feel like, and I'm, and I'm, I, I, and I, I, I, and I, I, I, I, and I, I, and I, I, and I, I, I, and I, and I, I, and I, and I, I, and I, I, and I'm, and I'm, I'm, and I'm, and I'm, I'm, and, and, and, a, a, a, a, a, I'm, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a, a. th. th. th.e.a.a, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, a big, do the, oh, it's not all of our faults and that, that, that,
Starting point is 00:08:07 it's such a guilty stance that you're taking. You feel bad, you feel bad, and that's what you're supposed to feel. That is what's called empathy. It's, you're not supposed to turn it around and project it as, you're fucking on me because that, no, you're supposed to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look to look at to look at to look at what to're supposed to look at what we're saying because we are humans. That is the whole point of the thing is that you're not looking at ever people as humans. And the thing that you're navigating and you're you're preaching is not love.
Starting point is 00:08:38 I, it's control. You said something about education there, I totally agree, like a lot of people who are thinking the way they're thinking, I totally agree, like a lot of people who are thinking the way they're thinking, they're just not educated. They've not been out of their little comfort zone. Out there little bubble, and see how other people live. It's when they come to New York. They're like, you can see it in their faces in Times Square. They're like, oh my, how do they all get along here? Because they do. And it's that we need to look at how we feed information to people.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Everybody thinks movie stars ride around in limousines. I was talking to a guy once and he was like, well, you know everybody in California does cocaine. We're like, no. Do you think we just go to 7-Eleven and get a bottle of cocaine? The fuck is wrong with you! It's almost like very scary because then that's when I look at the entertainment field and go, hey, we have responsibilities too about what the fuck we feed people and what we're showing people also. Yeah, I mean, we're so desensitized right now. Reproductor rights, like you're big on this and it's so big. It's in the news now and this election's kind of like, where are we headed here?? here? here? here? th? th? th? th? th? th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th. th. th th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. It's th. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's thi. It's th. big on this and it's so big in the news now and this election is kind of like where are we headed here? If it doesn't go right
Starting point is 00:09:49 this election, reproductive rights it will be him as hell. Listen, I don't say. How the fuck are we going backwards women? And how are they okay with it? I don't get that shit either. And only thing that I can think of, and please don't be mad at me, but I really don't think they give a fuck about black people, brown people having abortions. I think, I think it really is about making more white babies. I just really do believe that it's one of those, like, because, what's the Tuberfield? Yeah, we just need to make more babies. Like, what's going to have more babies. There'll still be more black babies too. Exactly. It doesn't make sense.
Starting point is 00:10:26 Doesn't make sense. At all, sir. At all, sir. And then you're talking about we need more babies, but you just voted for the, what is it called IVF to be eliminated. You don't want more babies. to be eliminated. It's about control control. the the the take away, you take away abortion, and then you make it okay for a rapist to be part of the child's life, you make it okay for rape to not even be a big thing.
Starting point is 00:10:54 So it's almost like you saying, fuck you women, you're going to fuck us no matter what. And you're going to have us our fucking kids no matter what. We're going to, we're put, as a woman, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, as a, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. I don't th. I don't th. I don't th. I don't to try. I don't try. I don't try. I don't try. I don't try. I don't try try try. I don't try try try to th gonna get in good with these people. Like, I want y'all to really pay attention to that, and I know I keep saying, Handma's Tale, but think about Serena Joy. Serena Joy at one point wanted to fucking read. Because Serena Joy had a fucking college education. She wanted to read and what they do to her when she read the fucking Bible, the thing that they love. They cut a fucking finger off. So this is the thing, like, how are y'all not knowing that these things that they're doing to every other women,
Starting point is 00:11:52 they're not gonna do to you? And you know what they're gonna say? When the shit goes down, oh, you was for it. You knew what this was about. Yeah. How do we get more people involved? How do we get more of America involved in this? What people need to understand is that everybody with a fucking mic don't need to be listened to. Everybody that's in a podcast don't need to be listened to. Get up off your lazy ass and stop being complacent and fucking find out the information, the real information. Everybody needs to stop listening to everybody and fucking find, do the work.
Starting point is 00:12:29 We have, we, okay, listen, we the people, we have gotten so lazy and complacent and so to the point of where government will take care of it. This would be taken care of that stuff is not getting taken care of you guys. Now the manager is evil. Now the judges are evil because we just we've just let it's almost like we owned a mom pop shop right and we're serving great sandwiches. And then we decided to go ahead and franchise that shit. So some places you go to, them sandwiches is not as good as the original. Right. Do you understand? We have franchised our fucking country and not gave a fuck the original. Right. Do you understand? We have franchised our fucking country and not gave a fuck how it's being managed. And we are the first people to sit and go,
Starting point is 00:13:11 it doesn't affect me. It does affect you. It's so easy to turn this round if you, if everybody would just vote. And need to understand it, that it pisses me off when you do dumb shit like, oh, we're not gonna vote on the mid terms. Oh, we're not gonna, that's so fucking dumb. It's so dumb because you're not actually doing what you need to do. Like, okay, I'll put it like this,
Starting point is 00:13:36 when you get into a cog and change it, you gotta get into the cog and change it. First of all, the system that we have right now is not even being used correctly because everyone is not voting. Only a third of the country, I don't know how much I got to yell this, is voting. So you're not seeing complete results because everyone is not coming. You have fucking podcast, like I said, you can stand in line for the dumb shit. You can watch Risa for 500 hours, but you can't get your fucking ass up and go and vote. And what's so even asinine, you think you're so smart and
Starting point is 00:14:15 you're the dumbest mothfucker ever and you're doing exactly what they want. You pay taxes. You piece of dumb shit. You pay taxes and have the audacity not to vote. What a dumb ass. Why don't you take your paychecks, go get a cash, take that cash, and throw it in a garbage can and set it on fire. You might as well just do that. Yep. I mean, they don't get it.
Starting point is 00:14:40 I think that everybody, and like I said, education, people don't know this stuff. A lot of people don't know. Like, you still had the people going, we should have a third party, with that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, bitch, you haven't made the system that we have right now work. What makes you think you're not happy in the one bedroom in the car that you got? Why the
Starting point is 00:15:07 fuck would I give you a new house and a new car? So you can complain about about having something else? You got to do the work. You got to do the work. You got to do the work. You got to do the work. You got to do the work. Yeah. Well you and you and you and you and you and you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I you and I have the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that I have the f the f. the focu that that that that that that that that the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f the f the f the f the f the f the f. the f. the f the f. the f the f the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f. the f- the f- the f-uk. the f-u-au-fock. thu-au-fock. the f for us. It's like it's just almost like how do you not see this? And then the people that really need to hear us are not the ones that are listening. Exactly. So the people listening to that's why it's frustrating. It's very frustrating. That's why I try to speak another language. Because let me I really hope you hear this, that we are fucking shallow. See, the reason Trump is a, oh, Biden's an old, not cool guy. Trump's cool, because he has gold sneakers. You are the dumbest piece of shit that ever, and I hope that you crawl back
Starting point is 00:15:58 under your dumbass rock. It's not, I don't hope they crawl under a dumbass rock. I just wish they, if they could just explain it, if they can just be educated enough to understand what they're doing to themselves, you know what I mean? It's not that, whatever, think for yourself. Don't think like the sheep mentality. Don't you think that it's more of like,
Starting point is 00:16:21 thii. that it's more of like goes back to the racist mentality of like I don't give a fuck as long as I'm better than a black person. There's definitely an element to that for sure but I think that I think you know we you don't get born racist we talk about this. Exactly. There's some you've lived in a place where you didn't get out much for you, you weren't educated you, they took books away from you that you probably could have read, they closeted you if you were gay, they just oppress you. And there are other places in the world. But this is what I'm saying, no, when you're talking about make America great again, it's like that's what you was talking about. When he said that, I'm gonna be honest, I was like, oh, he's tha, thi. thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thin, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. You, th. T. T. T. T. T. T. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. You're, th. And, th. You're, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. And, th. Frams back. You know, my thing is, is what I don't, what's upsetting to me people is that if we had the food that we got
Starting point is 00:17:10 the ape back in the days and the physical regimen that we stick to today, we will be unfucking stoppable, we will be unstoppable. Why would you want to have a country that have dumb-ass kids? That have dumb-ass laws, that have, like, that, like, now we're like a third-word country. Yeah, we're going back to, people scared to come to fucking-y... Why would you want to live in a country like that? I don't understand. I don't understand. Gotta go forward, people. We'll be right back to chat more with Leslie Jones. Hey, everybody, John Stewart here.
Starting point is 00:17:45 I am here to tell you about my new podcast, The Weekly Show, coming out every Thursday. We're going to be talking about the election earnings calls. What are they talking about on these earnings calls? We're going to be talking about ingredient to bread ratio on sandwiches. I know you have a lot of options as far as podcasts go, but how many of them come out on Thursday? Listen to the weekly show with John Stewart wherever you get your podcast. with Leslie Jones. So Leslie, let me ask you a question. Apparently Huff Post asked you on the red carpet that we're to blame for the political state of
Starting point is 00:18:30 the country and we're more interested in Beyonce or Taylor Swift concert than we are with like climate change, the issues of the day, abortion rights. Yeah, I mean, talk about that a little bit. It's, it's, it's a deflection. It's, it's just like not wanting to do your homework. Like, I want to watch cartoons. Yeah. I don't want to do my homework. I want to, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:18:53 It's like, it's not the fun thing, but it's not the fun thing. But this is what you have to, that, that, that, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, th, th, like, that, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, that's, th.. th. th. th. th. that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that, that's, that, that, that, that, that, that's, that, that's, that's, that's, that's, th. th. th. th. And listen, nobody wants to wash dishes, but you have to, because if you don't, they pile up. No one wants to wash clothes, but you have to, because if you don't, they pile up. So that's the same thing with shit that you don't take care of, it pows up. And we did not, we're not taking care of our country as a people. We think, and listen, I know there's somebody going, what that's that, well we're supposed to depend on the government that we choose.
Starting point is 00:19:33 That we choose, we need to choose responsible adults that give a fuck about this country. And let me explain something to you. I have a lot of people that come up to me and go, you should run. I I I I I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, I said, that, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's, that's, that's that's that's that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, th. th. th. th. th. th. th a lot of people that come up to me and go, you should run. I said, that's the fucking problem because y'all don't know the difference between an entertainer and a mothucking politician. The reason that Trump is winning is because he is an aggressive, male, white male, heterosexual, fucking man that's great with communication one-on-one. That's the reason Trump wins. That's the reason Reagan did well.
Starting point is 00:20:08 All of them are entertainers at a point, but you need to get a politician in there that knows the fucking rules, that knows what is good for the country, that has an even mind that knows like, hey, listen, I may believe in God, but listen, if I believe in God, I still believe that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that everybody that knows like, hey, listen, I may believe in God, but listen, if I believe in God, I still believe that everybody has the right to believe in what they believe in as far as religion and don't bring it into state because religion is not supposed to be in state.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Listen, I believe in God and I don't believe that we should be having God in state. Mix, I'm sorry, I have a problem with that because people people interpret religion different. Some people are very religious and then some people are not as religious and some people interpret religion. Right. So it shouldn't have nothing to do. Like I'll put it like this, two plus two is four but God said add one. No. Two plus two is four. But God said add one. No. Two plus two is four, motherfucker. So it's like science. And then you're coming in with miracles. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Not saying miracles don't happen, but we shouldn't probably let them happen in our fucking state of rules. See, that's the thing. The world wants to live without rules, and that's chaos. You have to have rules to have success. Like, in other words, we're talking about eating after 10. If I was trying to lose weight, I'm trying to have success. So why would I break that rule?
Starting point is 00:21:40 Again, why get involved with someone at work? You're breaking a fucking rule. It's gonna come back and eat your ass. People need to understand that there is a certain responsibility you take on as a grown-up. When you say the politicians rather than celebrities, unfortunately, our celebrities sometimes seep into politics, it doesn't mean they know politics. Exactly. And also, people who want to be in politics, they're ones that want to be make some money,
Starting point is 00:22:11 they want to look out with themselves. The good ones are the public servants, and make sure your public servants serve the public. Exactly. That's the whole point. And then you need to understand, and this is what I want, I want everyone to hear this very loud and clearly. All these people, all these corrupt politicians, whether they're Democrat, Republican, Independent, whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:36 They're all doing all this shit on your dime. That's right. On your fucking dime. Now, listen, insurrection was fucking awful. But I gotta say, I can understand the frustration of thinking and believing in something and going, this is not right. I mean, those people really believed what they was doing,
Starting point is 00:22:59 was fucking, for America, because, again, on education. Exactly, what did it take for them to get to that? The amount of bullshit that they had to. Exactly, exactly. So and and listen, again, let me explain something to you about laws. Don't nobody give a fuck if you got a fucking the law. That's what if you, if you say you a country of law and order then follow the fucking law What are you doing? What made you think?
Starting point is 00:23:45 Racing a capital is going to know that's you're breaking the law. Yeah. So and then fighting against law keepers. Yes. What the fuck is wrong with you? Yeah, we just so again, people, I think a lot of people do shit to get attention. Yep. This public shit of needing to have their opinion known comes from insecurity, comes from you need to go to fucking therapy. You need to go to therapy and tell all that crazy shit. So a therapist who can medically tell you tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel tel you tel you tel you the the the the the the the the. theateateate. theauooe. theaq. theateate. the. the. the. theirpi. their. their. the. the. the. the. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. the. the. the. theauuu. theau. toeau. Soeau. Soeau. Soeau.au. Soeau.au. Soeau.au. Soeau. Soeau. Soeapeapea.that crazy shit. So a therapist who can medically tell you that you'd have lost your motherfucking mind. That is true. But definitely when you watch in the future, please understand the difference
Starting point is 00:24:13 between an entertainer and somebody who is serving the public. Listen, I would do just as bad at Trump. Do you understand? Because I don't understand the laws. I'm gonna shut Detroit down if Tyrone don't text me back. If Tyrone don't text me back, I'm gonna get, I'm gonna have a whole press comment. What are they called the State of the Union? Yeah, the state of Leslie's love life. Yeah, the state of Leslie's love life. Yeah, the state of Leslie's love life. It's gonna be once a the tryo' theell you the state of the union of Leslie's love life, I, it's not once a year. I hear about this. It's going to be once a fucking week that I'm going to
Starting point is 00:24:49 be banning. So do you understand? I'm not going to understand that, hey, hey, listen, transfer that money over here to Treasury. I'm not going to understand that you can't do that. I'm not I understand that that that that that that that that that that that that that that the school that that the school that the school that that the school that that the school that the school that the school that that the school that that that that that that that that that that that that the money. that that that's going that's going that's going that's going that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that that that you. that you. that you. that you. that you can't the money. the money. the money. the money. the money. the money. I'm going going going going going going going going going going going going going. the money. the money. th. th. thi. thi. I will going. I'm going. I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm going going. I'm not going going. I'm not going going going. I'm going. I'm not going going to be going. I'm going. I'm going going going to be to can't do that. I'm gonna not understand that, hey, well some school needs some money. Take that money out the Treasury account. You know how you go on Wells Fargo, sign on Wells Fargo and go to the transfer the and transfer from that account. They're gonna be like, no, we can't do that Leslie. So Leslie does understand, arrest Tyrone. This is his picture? All bulletins. All bulletins.
Starting point is 00:25:28 But I just think that we're just, we're childish. We've had a hard 10 years. We've had a hard 10 years and we're acting out. I feel like the last couple of years we've just been acting out. We're bad little toddlers that's just had a hard time and we're having a fucking tantrum. Yeah. And we need to be popped on the bottom a couple of times or either put in a time out and to think about our fucking actions. I agree.
Starting point is 00:25:53 You want the next four years to be another temper tantrown for four years and real craziness. Go ahead. No, no, listen, you're not understanding that's not what's gonna happen. We're gonna lose our country. You're gonna be fucked. We're gonna be fucked forever. If he gets in there, this man is going to fuck us. We're gonna become a dictatorship and it's gonna be so sad. All right, as you wanna say something to the Daily Show people before we leave.
