The Daily Show: Ears Edition - Trump Demotes Greg Bovino as GOP Turns Against Minnesota Crackdown | Michael Urie

Episode Date: January 28, 2026

Desi Lydic dives into the backlash over the Trump administration's immigration crackdown in Minnesota: GOPers push back against the DHS's attacks on Alex Pretti for carrying a legal firearm, Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino gets a station reassignment and a screen time limit, and Trump resorts to finding Bovino's replacement via suggestions from "Fox & Friends" host Brian Kilmeade. Plus, Troy Iwata pitches a new look for Greg Bovino to match his demotion. Michael Kosta and Ronny Chieng duke it out on another edition of Sports War, debating who you should root for at the upcoming Super Bowl LX, the merits of “Heated Rivalry” putting NHL on the map, and “Nordick shame” after Olympic Norwegian ski jumpers were suspended for enlarging their crotches. Emmy-nominated actor Michael Urie sits down with Desi Lydic to talk about the new season of “Shrinking.” They discuss his busy year, which included a run on Broadway, getting his start on “Ugly Betty,” where the legendary Vanessa Williams gave him the agency to take big acting swings, his “Shrinking” character’s journey as a father, working with a baby scene partner, and the nicest thing co-star Harrison Ford ever said to him.

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 with your host, Desi Linens. To talk about tonight, Marco Rubio just wants to disappear. Greg Bovino gets iced out, and did you know that he did rivalries? is based on a real sport? Who knew? Let's get into the headlines.

So much chaos in the news lately. It is truly overwhelming. And if President Trump has you feeling exhausted and wanting to hide under a blanket, you're not alone. Marco Rubio admitting he hides from President Trump during his naps on Air Force One, even cocooning himself in a blanket to cover his head.

He says he knows the president never sleeps on the plane and will prowl the hallways to see who's awake. Quote, I want him to think, It's a staffer who fell asleep. I don't want him to see his Secretary of State sleeping on the couch and think, oh, this guy is weak. Marco, Trump isn't going to think you're weak because you're napping. He's going to think you're weak because you're a pussy.

I mean, come on, you don't have to cover yourself in blankets. If you want the president to ignore you, just be a jobs report. Or a middle-aged woman wearing pants. By the way, how is this guy suddenly the sleep police? He's like my laptop. If you don't touch him for five minutes, he just shuts down. And see why the people in the Trump administration want to lay low and cover up right now.

The whole country is outraged over their fascist cosplaying in Minneapolis. And none of them want to take the blame for it. Unfortunately, for him, Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino has become the face of the immigration crackdown and that he's the only one not hiding his face. People have been demanding his firing, but if there's one thing we know about President Trump,

It's that he has always been a loyal man to his staff and to his wives and to his mistresses. And he is not going to toss out Greg Bovino just to cover up his own culpability. Source is telling ABC News, Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino is out as part of a staffing shakeup. The controversial commander has been reassigned to his regular job along the U.S.-Mexico border. Oh, no. Comeo C'E deece, bye bitch. Man, do you know how badly you have to be at immigration enforcement that you get deported to Mexico?

That's an embarrassing demotion by any standards. The Department of Homeland Security has been insisting this is not a demotion for Bovino. Oh, uh-huh. Okay, of course not. We're not throwing you under the bus. We're throwing you onto a bus and sending it far, far away. But still, there seems to be some kids.

confusion here. If there's any clear, definite sign that Trump has lost his confidence in Bovino. Mr. Bovino, we just learned, has been cut off from accessing his social media accounts by the Department of Homeland Security. Oh, he's toast. This administration practically runs on shit posting, so there's no greater punishment to them than telling someone, turn in your badge and your dank memes. I'm just kidding. They don't have badges. I can't believe that no more screen time works on both eight-year-olds and the head of a fascist death squad. Wow, technology is really powerful. Powerful stuff.

So it looks like Greg Bovino is gone, not to be confused with Dan Bongino, who is also gone. There's anyone in the Trump administration named like Mike Bobino, that guy is f***. So now Trump has a problem. He needs to find a replacement for Bovino. Does anyone have an idea? And I mean anyone. What I would do is just bring Tom Holman in. I would love to see Tom Holman just be asked to go in there and settle things down.

I would hope that maybe a fresh set eyes, Tom Holman going in there, taking control of this. Okay, I think Brian Kilmead might want Tom Homan. For those who don't know, Tom Homan is Trump's border czar. Seen here eyeing a paper bag filled with $50,000. But this is Kilmead. Okay, he's a Fox and Friends. He's not a cabinet member. Just because he's spitballing ideas on camera,

doesn't mean that Trump's actually going to do exactly what he's suggesting 20 minutes later. The president just posted on truth social moments ago. He says, I am sending Tom home into Minnesota tonight. Well, fuck me in the face. I say TV is dying, but there's still power in it. I mean, God, if Brian Kilmead can will something into existence, imagine what I could do.

Hey, Timothy Shalameh. It's time. Shave that mustache from Marty Supreme. Yeah. The best use of my power. But the truth is, a suggestion from couch people wouldn't have worked on its own. What worked was what the good people of Minneapolis

have done with their bravery and their determination and sacrifice. It was their unceasing resistance and banding together in bone-chilling temperatures, mind you, that kept attention on the injustice. is being committed by ICE, to the point where even conservatives were pushing back. At least 30 Republicans are now demanding a full and complete and thorough investigation. Texas Governor Greg Abbott says that it's time for the White House to recalibrate their approach.

The NRA even speaking out posting, responsible public voices should be awaiting a full investigation, not making generalizations and demonizing law-abiding citizens. Republican Congressman Thomas Massey posting, carrying a firearm is not a death sentence. It's a constitutionally protected God-given right. I mean, I love that conservatives are speaking out, but carrying a gun is a God-given right. Guys, there's no guns in the Bible. Are you thinking of the novelization of the Equalizer, too? Which, to be fair, is my personal Bible.

So you've got everyone from GOP senators to the NRA criticizing how Trump is handling this, but no matter how many people abandon him, he will always. always have newsmax. They'll defend him even if it makes them look stupid, especially if it makes them look stupid. Can I tell you something? Look at that. Take that full. In a weird way, that phone I think could be mistaken for a gun. I want to show you something. Does that look like a gun? I think it does a little bit. It's a phone. It's black like most phones. That's crazy stuff. I don't disagree with you there. That is crazy stuff.

And if you think this couldn't be any stupider, never underestimate Greg Kelly. Oh my God, there's a guy over there. Stop! Doesn't that look like they're done? Seriously. It's just my silly phone. I can't change the screensaver. I didn't choose that one.

It just popped up. I think it's like Black Lives Matter or something. I do not support, but I can't get rid of it. See you tomorrow. Most newsmax sentence of all time. I don't know what that is, but I do not support it. It's amazing what you can get canceled for on the right. I don't support civil rights.

I swear it's a tech issue. You got to believe me. I have to say, Greg Kelly, that entire demonstration was just embarrassing. I just, I hope Donald Trump didn't see you shit the bed that hard. Oh, few. You're good. He was sleeping. For more on Minnesota and the removal of Greg Bovino,

Let's go live to Minneapolis with our very own Troy Iwada. What is the final straw for Trump? Well, Desi, there's no doubt it was Greg Bovino's handling of the crackdown in Minnesota, but for Trump it was also an image issue. He likes a strong leader, and as you can see, Bovino falls short of that. Literally. I mean, with respect, he looks like he's leaving his shift at the chocolate factory. Okay, Troy, I don't think we need to criticize his appearance here.

I think it's more relevant to focus on his sinister behavior in the crackdown, and also the fact that he threw tear gas like a math lead whose arm fell asleep. Yes, that's true. Plus, you know, when he throws the tear gas, the canister just hits your shins. Troy? I mean that with respect. With respect. Yes, with all the respect.

But at the same time, does you can't discount the importance of appearances here, like his decision to dress as a bad guy from the sound of music. Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. See, that's a performance issue because it's confusing when people can't tell if he's looking for immigrants or the von Trapp children. Yes, yeah. Especially when it looks like he has to buy his Nazi outfits in the Hitler youth section, you know, with respect. Troy, please stop focusing on his appearance. He can't change the fact that he has resting illiterate face. With respect. Yeah, yeah, well, respect.

You know, he tried to change, Desi. Before last week, he projected it. an image that experts said, quote, looks like what chat GBT generates from the prompt guy who f***ed his cousin. See, I wouldn't emphasize his facial features. I'd emphasize his choice of a haircut. How can he crack down on Latinos while asking his barber to give the sides of his head a Brazilian? With respect. Yes, yes, nothing but respect.

So much respect. Okay, so how did Bobino try to fix his image? Well, last week he tried to add glasses to look smarter, but as you can see, that back. backfired. President Trump hates DEI, so he can't have the head of Border Patrol looking like a Bushwick lesbian. I can see why that looked in and fly with Trump. From the neck down, it says secret police, but from the neck up, it says, open mic poem about

my vulva. Respectfully. Respectfully. So much respect for the vulva. Oh, God. Bless the vulva. God bless. You know, regardless of why Greg Bevino is leaving Minneapolis, the important thing is

that he is leaving and that he left with his head held high, looking like a testicle getting shaved before surgery. Oh, Troy. Respectfully, respectfully. Respectfully. Respectfully. Right. And sports rules.

And sports rules. For a full recap of the biggest stories in the world of jocks and straps, we turn to sports war. You're ready for battle. It's time for sports. Brought to you by gambling. Gamblin. Gambling.

Your wife won't know if you open a bank account in Macau. I'm Roy Chey. And I'm Michael Costa. This is Sports War, the show where we are legally not allowed to agree with each other. So if I say Indiana winning the national championship was the most surprising sports story of all time, then I say, hello. Are you forgetting O.J.? Nothing was more surprising than his infamous 2000-yard rushing season. That was not the most surprising thing O.J. has ever done.

And this is true. He once murdered his audition for the naked gun, allegedly. But let's move on to even bigger football news because Super Bowl LX is set. The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots now headed to the big dance. Pat's fans are dancing in the snow-filled streets. There are a lot of fried vocal cords in Seattle. Two teams from opposite coast ready to face off in football's biggest game. Yes, it's the Seahawks versus the Patriots.

Seattle versus New England. Starbucks versus Duncan. Point is, I am shitting myself with excitement, and neither will give me the bathroom code. Ronnie, who do you like? Well, Costa, I go go with Seattle for pretty obvious reasons, because that is where Frazier lived in his hit sitcom, Frazier. Ronnie, that is the dumbest reason to support Seattle. I'm all in on New England for one simple reason. Boston is where Frazier lived in the hit sitcom Cheers.

Costa. Sounds like we got ourselves a Frazier Bowl. This is a rematch of the 2015 Frazier Bowl, and if it's anything like that game, by the fourth quarter, those players' brains will be tossed salad and scrambled eggs, and I'm here for it. Any non-Frasia-based analysis of the game you like to add?

No. Great. That brings us to our BB Network, Better Than Night. What song will Bad Bunny perform with Kelsey Grammer during this year's halftime show? brought to you by gambling. Gambling problem. Good.

Moving on from pigskin to whatever animal hockey pucks are made from, the NHL is seeing a huge resurgence thanks to one unlikely bedfellow. The show heated rivalry, which we've been talking about all morning, being credited with a surge in interest for hockey tickets. Stubhubh says there has been a 40% spike.

40% in NHM. searches since that show debuted. This is fantastic news. Now, I haven't watched heated rivalry, but I love any show about hockey. I can't wait to meet these characters and their devoted wives. Yeah, Costa, I have some bad news for you.

The on-screen hockey in this show is terrible. What? Well, at least tell me the characters are gay. Of course they are. Great. Then I'm back in. I was sick of having to watch hockey in gay porn on two different screens at the same time.

This is much more efficient, and it's great for hockey fans. Oh, wrong. It is awful for hockey fans in the stands like me, all right? Because now when I kiss random men on the kiss cam, people will think I'm gay instead of just trying to start a fight, which brings us to our LGBT better than night. Which gay actor will win NHL's most valuable player? Brought to you by gambling.

Gambling. Did you know you have unlimited plasma? Moving on, we are just days away from the Winter Olympics, the world's second favorite kind of Olympics, but it's never too early to start cheating. Norwegian ski jumpers have been suspended from the upcoming Winter Olympics after enlarging the crotch area of their uniform.

Some ski jumpers go further, using pumps to manipulate their crotch size so they can fly like a kite. What a disgrace. It's one thing to take steroids or gamble on your own games or hire your idiot boyfriend to take a pipe to your rival's knee.

But lying about your dong size, that's where I draw a big, vainy line. Well, an average size line, but vainy. Imagine a purple spider web. Get enough. Stop telling me about your dick. I prefer text. That way it's searchable. First of all, if lying about your dick is a crime,

then lock me and my massive hog right up. This is great for ski jumping, okay? Because I'm finally going to tune in. Now, instead of watching to see if the ski jumpers die, I'll be watching to see how big their dicks are right before they die. Come on. Come on, Ronnie.

Think of safety here. Some of these ski jumpers are inflating the size of their penises with hyaluronic acid. The only acid that should be anywhere near the penis is LSD. Trust me, I did it, and I was soaring. A great eagle lifted me on its talents and carried me all the way to Saturn

where the ghost of Benjamin Franklin shared with me the great universal truths. And when I awoke, I was in a camping tent filled with elderly Chinese tourists. Again, apologies to the Huang family for ruining their reunion. I don't know how to feel about that. Which brings us to our ski balls better than night.

will Olympic ski jumpers Sven, the duneworm Christians, and take home the gold. Brought to you by gambling. Gambling. It's probably in the Bible. Well, that's all for this edition of Sportswear. Join us next time when we'll debate whether there should be an autumn Olympics. Oh, autumn Olympics? I would take the golden leaf peeping, no question.

Please welcome Michael Ury! Thank you. Me too.

It's so nice to be here. I'm such a huge fan of your work. Thank you. And, uh... Crap. Did a crap. What a world we're living in, right? Oh, God, you're just a bright light.

Thank you for being here. Thank you. You had quite the year last year. It was a crazy year. Crazy year. You appeared in O'Mary. Yeah? You were nominated for an Emmy for shrinking.

Yeah. And you start in Richard II. Yes. Yes. Huge here. I also lost a dog and a cat. Oh, I'm so sorry. So sometimes...

It was a murder-suicide. God, just up and... No, I was sure. It was a little... No. And the deaths had nothing to do with each other. Oh, Michael Yuri, everyone. I think we can wrap it up now.

You can't top that joke. Oh, my God. So it's like some real highs and some real lows, but... Oh, jeez. Yeah, kind of a crazy year. You are such a busy man. Here's my big question is, which loved one are you actively avoiding in your life?

That's to work all the time. I'm just working. Non-stop. Yeah. Yeah. It's great to not be home when you live with someone like, Ryan. He's good. My partner, he's amazing.

He's in the green room. I met him. He really is amazing. I know you're lying. He's the best. Most of us fell in love with you from ugly Betty. Oh, yes. You were such a standout in that show.

Thank you. I just heard recently that originally your character was only supposed to be in one episode. Yeah. Is that true? Yeah. So I played Vanessa Williams' assistant on the show. Yeah. We worked at a fashion magazine.

And the idea was that she was such a tyrant of a boss that every episode she'd have a new assistant. Like they always quit or got fired. And so I was only in the pilot. And I knew that. And, you know, I was a co-star. I was not a, you know, series regular or anything. And so I think because, I was also really young,

and I think because I thought there was no chance of moving forward with this, I just tried anything. I would do anything and made a lot of big choices. And one of them was, I thought it would be really, because they always put me right behind Vanessa, you know, when we would come into a room or whatever. I thought it would be really funny if I just sort of physically did her.

So, like if she tossed her hair, I would toss my hair. As she sat down slowly, I would sit down slowly. And she had no idea I was doing that because I was behind her. And someone told her I was doing that. Someone went up and they were like, hey, V, you know what that queen's doing behind you? And she was like, what, what? And then she came over to me and she was like, hey, I hear you're doing me behind me. And I was like, um, and I was like, I'm going to get fired.

And I said, yeah, sorry, I thought it would be funny if I kind of physically emulated you behind you. and she said, that's great. What else can I do? That you can do. And she immediately, like, gave me all of this agency, and I'm pitching her ideas, and she's like, stand closer you'll be in the shot. I didn't know where the cameras were, you know.

And they put me in the cast photo by the end of the pilot. Oh, yeah, they did. It's so special. So special. She's amazing, but she's the greatest. Oh, that makes me love her even more. And you, for take. It's just also such a big.

great thing to remember. Take big swings. Make big choices. Like, take advantage. And it totally paid off. Yeah. Because they told us, you know, when I was getting out of drama school, they were like, they were like, nobody ever gets a series regular job off of a guest star. So when you go to a guest star, just do a guest star. Don't, don't, don't swing for the fences. It'll never work. It'll never happen. It did. Julia, you're wrong. You're wrong. You're wrong about everything, Julia. And now you're starring and shrinking. I love this show so much. I feel like this show is really met the moment.

It just feels like a nice warm hug when we all need it so desperately. It's so funny. It's laugh out loud funny. It's emotionally resonant. The show isn't afraid to explore really challenging topics like mental health and grief, single parenting, living with illness. For those who haven't seen the show, tell us what it's about.

It's about this guy Brian who's really handsome. Obviously. It's about. By the way, that's a very Brian thing to say. It's about this therapist who's grieving the loss of his wife. When we meet these characters, it's been a year since the death of Tia. And all of us had a connection to her, some married daughter, best friends, and we're trying to pick up the pieces.

So it's kind of a hangout show about this guy, Jimmy, played by Jason Seagel, the amazing Jason Seagel, his family, his neighbors, his workmates. best friend, we've been best friends since college, and they're therapists. So Jason Siegel, Jessica Williams of The Daily Show. Yes, our girl! And Harrison Ford, who you may have heard of, are therapists. And so every, you know, every episode we're dealing with mental health, our own, their patients, theirs, and it feels like it came out, you know, it came around at a really good,

good time. It came out sort of at the end of the pandemic. And we all were kind of given permission to talk about our mental health during the pandemic, I think. And the taboos were sort of going away around that. And so here's, you know, not just a show about mental health, but we have like action hero talking about his feelings. And, you know, Jason Segal, who's like a bro talking about his feelings. And I hear from so many people on the street or on social media, like, straight guys who tell me, and that's new for me.

And like, go on. Go on. That it means how much it means to them, how much to show means to them. And so now, here we come, season three is out tomorrow. And thank you. And it feels like we need a hug again. I know.

It feels like we could use a hug. We desperately do. Yeah. We desperately do. Your character, Brian, has a baby this season. Yes. What kind of father do you think Brian is going to be? Brian.

Don't hold back. Brian is. Well, Brian himself is a baby. So he's going to have to learn to be an adult. But I think his greatest quality is that he knows it takes a village, and he's got the greatest village. So he leans on... on Jimmy and Paul and Derek as dads. He leans on Liz as a mom.

He leans on Gabby, Jessica's character as a shrink. And he knows that he can't do it himself. He also has an amazing husband in Charlie, played by Devin Kawaoka, who is so wonderful. And so his best quality is, even though he puts himself first all the time, his best quality is knowing that he's going to need all these people around him. Yes, I love, I heard that you,

You had a fan come up to you and diagnosed your character. Oh, yes. Yes. Oh, yeah. Yeah, somebody came up to me. This is, somebody came up. Wait, I have to say before, for those who haven't seen it, his character is so lovable and hilarious and funny,

steals all the scenes. But, but also, is a lot. It's a lot. She came up, and she was like, I'm a shrink, and I love shrinking, which is a great compliment. She was like, and I love your character. He's such a narcissist. And I was like, is he?

I had no idea. And then you went back to Bill Lawrence who created the show. You were like, is he a narcissist? I was like, am I playing a narcissist? And they're like, oh, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And then I was like, have I been doing it right all this time? And then I went to my therapist, and I was like,

am I a narcissist? She said, nobody who asks is actually a narcissist. I asked my therapist the same day. Yeah, we're a save, save. Oh, my God. That's so funny. So when Jason Siegel was here last, he was talking about working with Harrison Ford

and said that Harrison Ford gave him a compliment about his dick. True story. He did say that on this show. What is the nicest thing that Harrison Ford ever said about you? Great butthole. Oh. Yeah. I was hoping you'd come through with that. He's going to be so.

happy when he goes back and watches. Mom, dad. No, that, obviously that didn't happen. He, well, he doesn't, you know, he's withholding. Harrison Ford is generally a withholding person. But when he, every once in a while, he will ask me something about myself. Every now and again. And it's, and I, because he's withholding, you know, he's developed.

this really, like, hilarious, cantankerous persona that we see in interviews and, and it's really funny. And like, he has everyone on set in stitches because he's so cranky. But it's not real. And we all know it's not real. He loves working. He loves being with us.

He loves this character. And, you know, he will give us, when you get a smile, it's just like, it melts your attention. entire. Oh, I bet. And he, I think, I think from, like, he will always ask me about theater. Aw.

Because he knows I do a lot of theater. During every break, I go and do theater. Back on Broadway, tell me everything. And it just means the world, like, that he's, that he, you know, wants to know. But he's a really good actor. And I've learned so much from working with him. He knows the camera so, so well. so, so well. He, he, like, always talking to the camera, the camera department.

Where is this? There's a cowboy. Is this? You know, he's always, like, checking in with them. And I'm always like, I mean, Vanessa Williams told me where the camera was 20 years ago, and I still don't know. I still don't really know. Oh, yeah, I should know this. Yeah, where is the camera? You're not supposed to look in it? Yeah. He's doing it all wrong. Because I'm in the theater, I'm cheating to every camera. You know, whenever there's a camera, I'm like, you know, whatever the angle is, I'm looking at it. And he's so good about that. And treats every scene like it's new, you know, like he doesn't rest on his laurels ever.

I love hearing that. Yeah. I love it. It makes me love and respect him even more. So, season three premieres tomorrow. And we also found out just some news a little bit ago. There's going to be a season four. Yes.

Congratulations. So cool. It's so nice to know. Like, there's more, obviously. And especially, it's right before the premiere, we get to find out, and everyone gets to know. I'm thrilled to hear. I cannot wait to watch.

Do you have any expectations for Brian? Where would you like to see Brian go next season? Well, it's so interesting because I don't know, like, how old the baby will be. Oh, how far they skip ahead? Yeah, like, how far are we going to skip ahead? Are we going to pick right up? Does that mean we get new babies?

Because I really imprinted on the baby actors we had. Oh, yes. Like, they would bring these babies, because they were, like, little babies, and they bring these babies in, and I really, I would, like, really look into their eye. It's, like, it's just a baby. Like, they're not acting.

They're just babying. And it's such a great thing for an actor to, like, have, you know, like, that thing won't tell me a lie. This thing won't, this thing will be what, it's sort of like, you know, like, this is a mug. You know. That is the most Juilliard thing you have ever said, by the way. This guy clearly graduated from Juilliard.

Every time there was a scene with a baby, they would be like, do you want the baby in the crib so we can shoot it out and you can, you know, then focus on the scene and I was like, no, give me the baby. I want to hold the baby. I want to hold the baby. I want to hold the baby. I want the baby to poop on me. Yeah.

Committed. Yeah. That's real commitment. But we had a break once in shooting where we didn't see the baby for like six weeks, and when they brought them back, it was the same babies. They were totally different. Right? This is the thing about babies.

Yeah. Tell them. Tell them. Tell them. The thing about babies is, they change all the time. They grow. They grow. They get bigger. They get bigger.

Their faces change. I was like, is this, wait a minute, is this Eliora? Did you bring me an imposter baby? And they're like, no, that's her, that's how big she is.
