    SCOTUS Deals Blow to Voting Rights Act & Trump Deals Blow to NASA Chief’s Ears | RZA

    Josh Johnson dives into the Iran peace talks that Trump is holding “telephonically,” the president bullies NASA chief Jared Isaacman for his ears, and Republicans claim racism is over after the Supreme Court effectively guts the Voting Rights Act. Plus, Ronny Chieng dishes on how Republicans in Congress are celebrating while minorities are panicking. Jordan Klepper Anal-a-Zones California's pivotal governor race: Eric Swalwell's scandal-plagued resignation threw a wrench in the state's free-for-all "jungle primary," and Democrats are scrambling with a roster of rizzless candidates, from "Love Actually"-parodying Tom Steyer to hologram-flexing Matt Mahan. Meanwhile, Republican voters face a choice between long-talking British expat Steve Hilton and firebrand Sheriff Chad Bianco, whose vibe is kind of "all the Village People at once." Legendary rapper and founder of The Wu-Tang Clan RZA joins Josh to discuss his new film, “One Spoon of Chocolate,” which he wrote, produced, and directed. RZA describes the project’s evolution since he started working on it in 2012, how his filmmaking process is not unlike his songwriting process of sampling from different sources of inspiration, and why directing his actors in uncomfortable depictions of racism was necessary to deliver the film’s overall message of equality. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

    John Phelan Fired as Navy Sec., Replaced with Witch-Hunter Hung Cao | Ben McKenzie

    Michael Kosta dives into America's naval blockade of Iranian ports to pressure Iran as the U.S. Navy quietly falls apart on the home front. After Pete Hegseth's firing of Navy Secretary John Phelan, Trump replaces the unqualified rich guy with the technically more qualified Hung Cao, who is famous for his hatred of witches and calls for more "alpha males and alpha females" in the military. Not even the war in Iran can distract Trump from his longstanding blood feud with wind energy, but what's behind the president's anti-wind vendetta? Desi Lydic chronicles how, for Donald Trump, wind turbines morphed from a simple eyesore near his Scottish golf course in 2012 to the source of all the problems on planet Earth, in this installment of The Art of the Altercation. Ben McKenzie, actor, author, and director of the new documentary “Everyone Is Lying to You for Money,” talks to Michael about the ugly truths of cryptocurrency. He explains why crypto is not real money, how celebrity advertisements and lack of transparency mislead people on the risk level of their investments, and how criminals permeate the crypto industry, starting with Jeffrey Epstein. They also discuss crypto’s targeting of young men and the changes McKenzie hopes to see in the crypto world, from stricter regulations to legal consequences. "I am not saying it should be outlawed, I am simply asking for it to be regulated properly. And I’m also asking, politely, for the criminals to go to jail." Learn more about your ad choices.
