OAN: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Our main story

tonight

concerns the media, you know, the people who announced to the world that man had landed on the moon. World War II had ended and one day it would announce my tragic death after being swallowed by a pelican. Look. I love corn dogs. on the dock and taunting the big birds, it's just a matter of time. Chomp has made no secret of his disdain for the media, but he's also been giving a lot of press conferences recently, highlighting the fact that there is one media outlet he seems to really enjoy. calling, okay, a couple of questions, go ahead.

Oh, we'll answer some questions. Emerald. Oh, you instinctively know that when Trump likes something so much, it's an immediate red flag. Take this capybara with an orange on its head, it looks great, but if Trump repeatedly said I love that capybara with an orange on his head, you know we're about to find out all the times he wore blackface in college. Oh a n represents American news and when you hear the kind of questions they ask him, start to see why Trump calls them so much sir. president, your approval ratings have been the highest they've ever been, as have the ratings for your handling of the virus, if there are some networks that say they're debating whether or not to live stream these briefings, do you think there's a bond? between the two well, I don't know, I know well, it's a good question, thank you very much, what is it?

A good question, although I suppose it depends on what your definition of one is, if a good question is intended to extract useful information in Then it was not pleasant, but it is something that makes the president feel happy for a brief moment before he feels that all feelings are absorbed by the unfathomable evasion that always yawns within him, so yes, it was a very pleasant question, very pleasant indeed. and OAM has many nice questions for the president when he was criticized for referring to the corona virus as the Chinese virus, one of his correspondents was quick to defend him with this beauty term, Chinese food is racist, he knows it is food that originates from China or has time, no, I don't think it's racist, I don't think it's racist at all in that sense, the mainstream left-wing media, even in this room, has associated itself with the narratives of the Chinese Communist Party and claims that you are racist for making these statements.

As for the Chinese pirates, it is alarming that the main media players simply object to you constantly siding with foreign state propaganda, Islamic radicals and Latin gangs and cartels, and they work right here in the White House, with direct access to you and your team. Wow, that's pretty crazy Look at the reactions of the other journalists there, who are clearly not used to getting stares from both sides of the room, that's a look that says how I ended up in the middle of this sandwich and it's moments like that that explain why Trump has such a love affair with Oh and has repeatedly praised them on Twitter at one time when he didn't like Shep Smith's coverage of his administration, he tweeted that Shep Smith has the lowest rated show on Fox News, in fact , whenever possible, I turn to Oen and his family.

They seemed like fans this Thursday in the middle of a pandemic. Oh, and I spent almost 15 minutes chatting with Dong Junior, which resulted in this fantastic exchange. Are you binge-watching something? You have to see something again. Yeah, we basically watched Tiger King in two. sessions for two thousand dollars that should not be your takeaway after watching that show. The Tigers are surprisingly cheap. Plus, it turns out you can hire a hitman for $3,000. What offer. Oh, it's a relatively small organization, but you might know someone who watches them. and they're punching way above their weight right now and if they're in the White House press room getting called out all the time and they're more supportive of the president than Fox, we thought

tonight

it might be worth taking a look at who they are and what they do Owen is the brainchild of conservative millionaire Robert Herring and his droid son Jake Gyllenhaal and since his birth Oh Ian has been a home for extreme conservatism, how extreme, let's meet your hosts to start, there's Graham Ledger, who is called blacklivesmatter, a criminal organization as it is called.

Being transgender is a mental problem and a set of people who come to the US from Muslim majority countries, if they don't take a bite of a pulled pork sandwich, we probably won't let them into the country and it's genius like That's what makes him the cowardly null of the meat-sandwich-based race-baiting that begins every show. his signature catchphrase the newsroom doors are closed and the PC police don't come in and if that wasn't sweaty enough, this addition to the Ledger's newspaper ends every show like that. I swear, the Library of Congress archives, thanks for looking. I'm Graham Ledger and remember that even when I'm wrong, I'm right, yes, he signs that way every night and for the record, we asked the Library of Congress if the daily ledger is sent to their archives and we They said it to us and to me. quote, they have no record of the daily ledger that was sent nor have we received the programs as a collection and anyway, walking into the Library of Congress is not remotely impressive, do you know what's in there?

Jersey Shore is there, milf chronicles for busty mansions is on even our show is there, it's true, this is our list in their catalog. What I'm saying is that you wouldn't make great company even if you were there, which you aren't, so of course this is a slogan even when I'm wrong, I'm right, which is even more stupid, right? why would you want to say something that implies that they are both blatantly partisan and wrong and not a significant portion of the time? It would make so much sense if his catchphrase was to remember even After having explosive diarrhea, I'm still thinking about why you would admit any of those things, but it might actually be good for Led to just specify right even in wrong, because he gets it wrong a lot and always with a certain Burgundy Rum style. he tries to dismantle Saunders's rhetoric.

Unfettered capitalism is what we should want in this country. Unfettered capitalism is what made this country great in the industrial revolution. Carnegie and, well, the other men who built this country in the late 19th century. I'm ignoring JP Morgan. The rest of them, Rockefeller, there's a name, yes, there's a nice name, except Graham, and that's the kind of erudite historical insight you can find in his book The Industrial Revolution, how you and Andrew Carnegie meet the rest of them , JP Morgan and others, the monopoly. Man, maybe that's a name built in America through unfettered capitalism. Oh, and Henry Ford, but the ledger isn't the only bright light in the chain.

You know Shanell Rhian. Oh, an inside White House reporter whose specialty seems to be asking questions that aren't in any body. Minds. 2,405 Americans have died from coronavirus in the

last

60 days, yes, meanwhile, there are 2,369 children who are killed by their mothers through elective abortions every day, that's sixteen thousand five hundred children killed every

week

, okay, obviously it's a rhetorical argument bad fight, but what the hell? Let's compromise, there are thousands of abortions and thousands of deaths from coronavirus, that's true, we can disagree about whether those things are equivalent, they aren't, but if only one of them is growing exponentially every day, it should probably be in the one we focus on, right? now, but of course let's get back to that question once abortions become unintentional and wildly contagious Now, when Chanel Rhian doesn't ask nice questions in the White House press room, she also claims to be the country's best political illustrator for the constitutional conservatives and anti-left causes which, to be fair, is a very low bar to clear, but I'm not sure if this drawing of Rachel Maddow as the miserable Mad Cow manages to clear it.

She also posts a word from a website called wert appease a world. of beautiful words featuring clever tributes to flower language such as Metanoia Orphic and vice versa Fife and kashish, which apparently means a face that urgently needs to be punched. The page explains that if we do not nourish and grow our word kingdoms, we do not nourish and grow. our realms of thought and it's hard to know how to describe a sentence like that, luckily the word Obie has an entry in innate fanfare, which means empty language of self-promotion and that seems to hit the nail on the head, this website is so helpful, then there's Liz .

Wheeler, who is a big Trump favorite and can build an argument, just watch how over the course of 54 seconds she turns an aquarium's simple decision not to announce the gender of a baby penguin into something very different. We should ask ourselves where the gender ideology of the radical left comes from. Do liberals want human children to be genderless? If so, why is this based on biology? And if not, what happens when human children are raised genderless? If gender is destroyed, that doesn't destroy traditional gender roles and if gender roles are destroyed, right? that destroys gender relations and if gender relations are destroyed that does not destroy traditional marriage and if traditional marriage is destroyed that does not destroy family units and if people do not depend on their families then who do they depend on, that is correct the government, which is the goal of liberals in the first place, don't let the transgender penguins fool you.

Wow, that argument is a walk in the park. I guess she uses the same chain argument logic for everything. Ask yourself this, why do radical leftists want to expand health insurance? Liberals want everyone to be healthy and if everyone is healthy doesn't that mean that no one will ever die and if no one ever dies does that mean that Hitler would still be alive and if Hitler is still alive, isn't World War II still happening? and if World War II is also happening, doesn't that mean our troops are still fighting? And if our troops are still busy fighting World War II, who is defending America from terrorists?

That's right, no one, what's the goal of liberals in the first place. Don't let the polyamorous lobsters fool you and look, it's not just about human rights talking points, the network has actively given airtime to conspiracy theories. They offered a $100,000 reward for information on the murder of Seth Rich. Last year they traveled with Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine to shoot a multi. multi-part series featuring her research there, and recently Chanel Rihanna hosted a special in which she pushed a conspiracy theory that the coronavirus could have originated as a bioweapon in a North Carolina lab. OAM's selling point is that they are Fox News with even less shame and even fewer scruples—in fact, they are so flagrantly enamored of Trump that at one point their network account tweeted that President Trump recently gave a speech thanking his followers in the media, not a single mention of a news story from the United States, one of his biggest supporters.

Oh, a yen calls and that's pathetically thirsty, they go from fawning praise to sullen fury if people stop congratulating them for even a second, although when you say it like that, you understand what I'm thinking and the president looks and I know that it's easy to dismiss it as a stupid little borderline observed self-parody. The problem is that if we're learning one thing right now it's that toxic things that start small can quickly become big and are dangerous to ignore and Right now, the president is putting a lot of energy into raising the profile of Oh a Ends, for example

last

week

, even as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the U.S. rises. exceeded 65,000 Trump thought it was important for his Twitter followers to see this video, guess what, thanks to you, this book, my book, is number four on the Amazon best-seller list in the political commentary category, thank you, thank you, thank you very much, yes, he retweeted it with the notes. follow the book and give Liz some great reviews, which would be absolutely weird even if Liz Wheeler hadn't posted that video last August and we all know the rules here, liking someone's post is fine, liking someone someone's post from seven months ago is the creepiest thing. on the ground and Trump has supported them in other ways just this week the White House Correspondents Association actually revoked Owens' access to a seat at the briefings.

The reason they did this was because most of the reporters had agreed to take turns attending to keep the room emptier and she followed social distancing rules, but Chanel Ryan repeatedly appeared on dates she had not yet been seen.assigned a seat even though his seat was revoked on Wednesday. Rihanna returned to that room the next day and told people that she had been personally invited as a guest. of the White House press secretary and that is a problem because at best one can laugh at an almost right-wing news anchor-style parody, but very much like the problem with the anchor: he is simply not the right time for Ron Burgandy right now. o Am's strange combination of far-right talking points and stupid reporting is incredibly dangerous at a time like this.

Graham Ledger has explicitly called on Americans to defy government advice on social distancing and justified his argument this way. I would rather die of coronavirus a free person then live as a slave to the government wrapped in fear panic and without freedom this addition to the daily ledger is on the way the archives Library of Congress thanks for watching I'm Graham Ledger and I remember even when I'm wrong, I'm right, it's honestly monumentally dumb, since that tagline is that it might still be too smart for Graham Ledger. He deserves one more slogan at his intellectual level, maybe something like Graham Ledger and remember that anything can be food if you eat it and, by the way, that.

It's just the online TV version of Graham's ledger. It's even worse, just watch a video he posted on Tuesday of this week in which he claimed it was important for him to cut his hair and framed it as a brave act of civil disobedience. Do you know what we have to do? Because we live under an edict similar to Hitler's Germany or Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union. under tyranny instead of Freedom, we have to do this in a clandestine style. My hairdresser could be fined or arrested for what she is doing. This is no different, of course, from what they had to experience during Hitler's time.

Well, a couple of things first of all. It's not essential that you get a haircut people on TV don't always look well-groomed, trust me, trust me Hey, look at me, trust me second Hitler didn't ban haircuts, he was a grooming fascist personal other things too, but mainly that and Thirdly, if we lived under a Nazi occupation, maybe don't film yourself at the roots of your secret underground resistance, which took Google literally five minutes to discover is presumably located somewhere around the moon, like the Plaza shopping center in Encinitas, California, and look at the The problem here is that the kind of misinformation that Owain is spewing right now could end up getting people killed, and unfortunately, the White House is actively spreading your message so it's more important than ever to keep an eye out for Oh Ann and make sure that not one that you know is falling forward and I know that just calling him out may seem rude so for all of you who want a most eloquent plea, let me offer some language from the Chanel RIANZ website where derbies take place at this evening hour, I implore.

You should ignore a news network that tries to gloss over the ineptitude of this administration during a pandemic, whether it's a scientist like Liz Wheeler, a Fife and kashish back like Graham Ledger, or a rake like Chanel Rihanna, because not only are these people irresponsible, my friends are. a bunch of FOP doodles, that's our show, thanks so much for watching, see you next week. I'm John Oliver and this edition from last week tonight, for some reason, is on its way to the Library of Congress, don't let the bicurious manatees fool you good night
