    Trump Hopes for Heaven on "60 Minutes" & Stephen Miller Becomes Chief of Staff | Rachel Maddow

    Jon Stewart shares his take on the chaotic aftermath of the midterm blue wave and the fractured GOP left in its wake. MAGA pundits blame Trump for the electoral carnage, Ross Douthat plays hardball with the president on “60 Minutes,” and Stephen Miller gets an unforeseen promotion to chief of staff (thanks to his calm, level-headed demeanor). Plus, Jordan Klepper chats with Jon live from the White House, freshly updated with Miller’s totally-not-creepy personal effects. Award-winning MS NOW host Rachel Maddow joins Jon to discuss her new book about the DOJ called “Department of Fate: The Promise, the Power, and the Collapse of America’s Most Consequential Institution.” Maddow opens up about MS NOW’s 2026 election night coverage, her perspective on more people gaining access to healthcare as a result of state Democratic majorities, and why Trump’s dismantling of the Department of Justice in his second term surprised her. Plus, the Monday Nighters chat about rising healthcare costs, corruption, and Maddow’s pragmatic suggestions for government reform. -- To get simple, online access to personalized, affordable care for ED, Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit https://Hims.com/dailyshow -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

    The Interviews | Michael Lewis, Min Jin Lee, Erica Chenoweth, and Teddy Schleifer

    Catch all of the past week's great guests in one place. Michael Lewis joins Jon Stewart to discuss his new book, “Blockers: Rebels in the Deep State,” which unveils an inside look into DOGE’s inner workings and champions the civil servants who got in its way. Lewis and Stewart dive deep into stories of the brave civil servants who “blocked” DOGE, including the wild U.S. Institute of Peace standoff where a security guard locked DOGE staffers in a wing of the building until D.C. police showed up and escorted him out. Lewis also shares how DOGE’s young operatives targeted the people he calls “the best among us” and why he somehow walked away from it all optimistically. Award-winning novelist, Min Jin Lee chats with Ronny Chieng about her latest book, "American Hagwon." The two discuss hagwons, the specialized Korean skill schools at the center of Lee’s novel, bond over the traditions of respect, sacrifice, and discipline embedded within Asian culture and education, and debate the real value of an elite higher education. Plus, Lee breaks down how her novel’s exploration of an immigrant family enduring financial instability attempts to answer the question of why bad things happen to good people. Harvard Kennedy School professor and author of "Civil Resistance: What Everyone Needs to Know,” Erica Chenoweth, sits down with Michael Kosta to discuss their groundbreaking research on nonviolent resistance that led to the development of “The 3.5% Rule,” which found that no mass movements against dictatorships in the 20th century failed once they reached active participation by about 3.5% of the population. They talk about utilizing momentum, organization, and mass non-cooperation, along with protest, to achieve successful mass nonviolent resistance, and how the Declaration of Independence was the ultimate act of civil disobedience. New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer joins Jordan Klepper to discuss what it’s like covering the billionaire beat and if money is losing its power in American politics. Schleifer shares how the ultra-wealthy think about political giving and why he’s surprised they don’t spend even more. He also explains how the world of dark money plays an outsized role and why both parties’ establishments quietly benefit from the status quo, even if most voters can’t stand it. Plus, he shares why he thinks real change takes years, pointing to Texas where people waited over a decade to see it turn blue. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.

    GOP Turns on Trump & Rep. Constantino Blasts "A**holes" | Teddy Schleifer

    Republicans mourn the midterm results with some light criticism of Trump, JD Vance blames the Iran War for the blue wave, New York elects potty-mouthed Republican Anthony Constantino, who wants Trump to free Diddy, and Jordan Klepper wonders if the president's beam will be strong enough to support MAGA's cracks. Grace Kuhlenschmidt gets into the biggest headlines in tech: Americans get unhelpful voting tips from ChatGPT, Elon Musk's new "flying" car takes a safety-last approach, and a Kung Fu robot bodyguard can kickflip burglars in the taint. New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer joins Jordan to discuss what it’s like covering the billionaire beat and if money is losing its power in American politics. Schleifer shares how the ultra-wealthy think about political giving and why he’s surprised they don’t spend even more.

    Midterm Blowout: Dems Batter GOP & Elon Musk Is Out $500 Million | Erica Chenoweth

    Michael Kosta recaps the 2026 midterm elections after Democrats’ historic sweep: Kansas’s last Democratic senator was born the year the light bulb was invented, Elon Musk is out $500 million after blowing it on failed campaigns, and the media cannot stop coming up with dumbass “blue” puns. Plus, Troy Iwata vents to Kosta about losing out on Trump’s $5K checks. The media and even some Republicans agree that the 2026 midterm bloodbath was a rejection of Donald Trump, but one political observer begs to differ: Donald Trump. Michael covers the president's insistence that he "wasn't on the ballot," his cope-heavy celebration of a GOP victory in Guam, and his renewed commitment to helping everyday Americans by continuing to obsess over the White House ballroom. Harvard Kennedy School professor and author of "Civil Resistance: What Everyone Needs to Know,” Erica Chenoweth, sits down with Michael to discuss their groundbreaking research on nonviolent resistance that led to the development of “The 3.5% Rule,” which found that no mass movements against dictatorships in the 20th century failed once they reached active participation by about 3.5% of the population.

    Election Day Features Voter in Labor, Hot Dems & Don Jr. Warning of Ohio Statehood | Min Jin Lee

    Ronny Chieng breaks down an eventful Election Day, including a woman going into labor at her polling station, a MAGA voter applauding Trump for his “incredible fraud,” Haley Stevens upholding her tradition of changing all her political beliefs, Don Jr. worrying about Ohio gaining statehood, and Trump getting asked the most important question this midterm: Who is his best-looking administration official? Plus, Grace Kuhlenschmidt and Troy Iwata hit the streets of NYC to poke into who people voted for. Election Day 2026 is finally here, which can only mean one thing: it's time to start stressing about 2028! Josh Johnson takes a look at the growing field of will-they-won't-they candidates for the next presidential race: JD Vance is saddled with an unpresidential name AND a lousy sense of humor, Gavin Newsom endures the humiliation ritual of fly-fishing with Jake Tapper, and Sen. John Kennedy positions himself as America's anti-goober candidate. Whoever the 2028 nominees may be, the important thing is we're only two years and seven minutes away from finally talking about 2032. Award-winning novelist, Min Jin Lee chats with Ronny about her latest book, "American Hagwon." The two discuss hagwons, the specialized Korean skill schools at the center of Lee’s novel, bond over the traditions of respect, sacrifice, and discipline embedded within Asian culture and education, and debate the real value of an elite higher education.

    Haley Stevens Flips Against El-Sayed & the Media Goes Poll-Crazy | Michael Lewis

    Haley Stevens breaks ranks with Democrats by endorsing Mike Rogers, who she once called a "nightmare," right before the midterms, news networks question the polls they use to disappoint us every election cycle, and Trump is STILL talking about the reflecting pool. Jon Stewart breaks down the election week headlines and warns against overconfidence in a 2026 blue wave — because the media can't kick their poll addiction, even though they know it hurts. Michael Lewis joins Jon to discuss his new book, “Blockers: Rebels in the Deep State,” which unveils an inside look into DOGE’s inner workings and champions the civil servants who got in its way. Lewis and Stewart dive deep into stories of the brave civil servants who “blocked” DOGE, including the wild U.S. Institute of Peace standoff where a security guard locked DOGE staffers in a wing of the building until D.C. police showed up and escorted him out.
