Samantha Bee Goes Deep On Trump’s Obama Wiretap Tweet

... at Trump’s performance. “Look, I know it’s extraordinary that he learned to read something, finally. I didn’t think he could do it either! But you don’t have to gush like he’s a toddler who just made a boom boom on the big-boy potty,” she scolded. According to Bee, only one person in all of TV-news punditry wasn’t buying it that night. Cut to a clip of a black woman in the audience at a CBS News post-speech town hall, complaining: “That’s not the Donald Trump that I’ve seen for the past 30 days. Where is that guy that says what he wants to say, that is loud? I’m gonna look for him on Twitter tomorrow, and see what he really thinks. Great job to the speech writer, but I will see Donald Trump at 12 AM!”. “Shhh! Don’t tell the truth! It sounds biased!” Bee cautioned. Then, she added, “You know, maybe cable news should hire more black women. Except not you, MSNBC!

Samantha Bee's Televised Revolution Against Trump

... already seems to have reached a point where every joke leads back to the president. Suddenly it's impossible to talk wolf pups or Taylor Swift or even the tufted titmouse without Trump coming up. Bee is funny — very funny. And she's ruthless when it comes to attacking Trump. She's mad as hell — not in a Howard Beale sort of way, but in a "she clearly cares about this" kind of way. She manages to weave valuable information between the laugh lines. She flashes the name of the bills she's talking about on the screen, as well as the dates when Congress will vote on them. She delves into the nitty gritty of what a Congressional Review Act is — and manages to make it not only interesting, but funny. She quips about taking four minutes to call your congressman as she heads into commercial break. She clearly doesn't just want to poke fun at Trump. She doesn't even just want to take him on herself. She wants to urge you to take him on, too. Bee clearly knows exactly what she's doing. And yet, even as I sat there watching the ...

Samantha Bee's Apology Doesn't Impress Cancer Patient

... Kyle Coddington. He's a contributor for the Outset Network, which reported that he recently completed his first round of chemotherapy and radiation treatments. According to a Go Fund Me page that was set up in December, Coddington has been diagnosed with a stage 4 glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer. "Please delete this episode.

Man With Cancer Shocked To See Comedy Show Making Fun Of His Hair. But They’re Paying For It Now

... from chemotherapy and radiation treatments. The mistake was first brought to attention by Outset , a conservative publication where Coddington works. Coddington’s sister also tweeted about the clueless joke, which quickly went viral. Opinions on the “ high and tight ” haircut remain split, even a few years after its hipster heyday. Commonly derided as the “Hitler youth” cut, the undercut buzz with a longer hair on top looks great on movie stars like Tom Hardy, but has some obvious baggage after being embraced by actual modern Nazi sympathizers like Richard Spencer. Once they were made aware of the embarrassing mistake, the Samantha Bee show quickly apologized through its Twitter account, removed the Coddington joke from the segment , and made a $1,000 donation to Coddington’s Go Fund Me page for his cancer treatment. However, Coddington said that while he was “moved” by the donation, he didn’t find the apology very sincere. After all, it references him being “offended” rather than simply owning the mistake outright. “The effects of the comments made on Full Frontal go further than my battle with a serious illness,” he said in a statement. “Everyone ...

Hooray!” she said. “For this astonishing feat, the pundits rained golden compliments down on him in the warmest shower he’s ever had outside of Moscow.”. Reviewing footage of MSNBC, Fox News, ABC, and CNN anchors calling Trump’s speech “more presidential,” “an extraordinary moment,” and “a great reset button,” Bee added, “If pundits set the bar for President Trump any lower, even Jeff Sessions won’t be able to walk under it without bumping his head.”.
