Jon Stewart defends Tony Hinchcliffe’s
controversial MSG Trump rally joke

Jon Stewart is sticking up for fellow comedian Tony Hinchcliffe after his joke about Puerto Rico at Sunday’s New York City Trump rally set off a media firestorm — and he threw in a hilarious jab at the Harris campaign for good measure. On Monday night’s “The Daily Show,” Stewart ran a supercut of left-leaning MSNBC and CNN personalities’ scandalized reactions to the one-liner, in which the noted roast comic and host of “Kill Tony” podcast compared the US territory to a “floating island of garbage.” The clips ended with “Morning Joe” cohost Mika Brzezinski calling out Hinchcliffe’s “extremely vile so-called jokes,” which Stewart quipped

Perhaps it's a great joke for "The Daily Show " or a club act, but it's one of those unforced errors in politics. If you're a Dem, you don't need to worry. If you're a Republican, don't try this trick at home ... or at the Garden.

I think the attendees at the rally would have understood what the guy was saying if they had been informed about the horrible garbage conditions in PR. I had heard about the garbage pile up and having many landfills closed because the fills are filled to capacity. What does PR do when they run out of a place to dump their garbage. It was not a slam against the people on PR, but a problem they have.

I was in Puerto Rico in 1968....cab driver did the Indy 500 on way to hotel which was booked at a hotel in Old Town. Arrived late at night....very scary (nearly empty room with some sort of 'bed' and a dim light). Checked back out and stayed at airport 'hotel' overnight. So, Hinchcliffe joke didn't faze me at all....

Meanwhile, at a demonicrat rally, comedian George Lopez made a joke about Mexicans stealing the supplies for building the border wall. But that’s OK. Mexicans = thieves. No, not racist at all.

I've lost track of the number of time I've heard Hispanic comedians tell this joke: "The first sentence in English a Mexican learns to say is "Can you help me push my car." Always gets a laugh. So the rules are you can tell put down jokes of racial or ethnic groups as long as you are a member of that group. I'm a hillbilly so I guess I can tell jokes about ridge runners and vice versa. No one ever got mad when Groucho Marx insulted them. We are too busy looking for things to get upset about.

Brace yourself, America – the fight for the future of this country has begun. In the 48 hours since President-elect Donald Trump delivered a schoolyard booty stomp to Wokeistan, one thing has become frighteningly clear: Despite unequivocal evidence of an outright MAGA romp (an electoral college avalanche, a rare Republican popular vote victory and a likely GOP-controlled Congress) left-wing lunatics are still clinging to their oat-milk latte delusions like Joe Biden to a baby's foot on Halloween. To the progressively deranged – they may have lost the election night battle, but the war is still raging. And with Donald 'Hitler/Mussolini/Stalin/Lex Luthor' Trump in the White House,

CNN’s Dana Bash appeared stunned as Senator-elect Jim Banks (R-IN) said Republicans will secure the border and carry out a mass deportation operation of illegal aliens, as they promised and the American people voted for. Banks, who is finishing out his term as a U.S. congressman before moving to the Upper Chamber in January, predicted at the top of the segment on CNN’s Inside Politics that Trump would carry out executive actions on day one to secure the border. “One of the top issues in your campaign was immigration and the border. What is the first thing that you want the president-elect to do?” Bash asked. Banks responded:

Judge Tanya Chutkan canceled all deadlines and ongoing proceedings in the Biden-Harris Department of Justice (DOJ)’s election interference case against President-elect Donald Trump after a request from special counsel Jack Smith. Smith’s concession is a remarkable symbolic moment for Trump, who has faced multiple lawsuits as he sought to return to the White House.Trump’s victory against Vice President Kamala Harris essentially ended Smith’s hopes of convicting the former president. DOJ policy generally prohibits prosecutions of sitting presidents, and Smith’s case was set to drag on well into 2025 after hitting multiple roadblocks.

It’s Friday, and they are still counting votes in Arizona, Nevada, and California. And the longer this inexplicable madness goes on, the less anyone should trust the results. Almost 11 million Americans cast their votes in Florida on Tuesday. The Sunshine State finished counting within a few hours. If the idiots who run Arizona’s elections ever do decide to finish counting, we’re talking at most about 3.5 million total votes. The people who ride the short bus to count votes in Nevada probably won’t hit 1.5 million total votes. Sure, California has millions more voters than Florida, but we are talking about California, progressive California, the home of Silicon Valley.

An Iranian government plot to hire hitmen to assassinate Donald Trump was thwarted just a month before the election, chilling documents unsealed Friday reveal. Three men, two who reside in New York, have been charged in the murder-for-hire scheme to take down the president-elect - who has survived two plots on his life in recent months - as revenge for the 2020 killing of Iranian military leader Qassem Soleimani. One of the would-be assassins, Farhad Shakeri, has been described by the FBI as an 'asset' of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and is now on the run in Tehran.

Democrats should be doing some serious soul searching and reflecting on why a majority of American voters rejected Kamala Harris and other Democratic candidates on Tuesday, and I'm sure some of them are doing just that. There are also some on the left, however, who can't seem to face up to reality quite yet. (X Video) There are just a few problems with Bakari Sellers' idea. First, there's not an opening on the Supreme Court at the moment, so Biden would have to convince one of the three progressives on the Court to step down. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was just appointed two years ago, so she's not going anywhere.

Anti-Trump women have taken to social media to take a vow of abstinence — swearing off sex and dating men — after the former president became the president-elect once again on Tuesday. Apparently they see it as another way to “combat the patriarchy,” as leftists like to say. Many videos uploaded to TikTok shortly after the election referenced the “4B Movement,” a Korean radical feminist movement with tenets that go against dating men, marrying men, having sex with men, and having children.

There was one supervillain in the story of the 2024 campaign that almost surpassed Donald Trump -- Elon Musk. From the minute he bought Twitter in 2022, the leftists who aspire to complete messaging control were furious. They knew their 2020 jig was up, that they couldn't just suppress damaging stories like the Hunter Biden laptop. Reporters like Cleve Wootson of The Washington Post complained in the White House briefing that "misinformation on Twitter is not just a campaign issue ... it's an America issue."

A federal judge on Thursday struck down a Biden administration program that would have granted legal status to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants. U.S. District Judge John Campbell Barker ruled that President Joe Biden’s “parole in place” program was illegal after it was challenged by a coalition of Republican attorneys general. The program was rolled out in June and created a pathway for legal status for illegal immigrants married to American citizens and illegal immigrant stepchildren of American citizens. Barker ruled that DHS lacked “statutory authority under” the law to grant parole to illegal immigrants.

Employees of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are reportedly terrified that there will be a "bloodbath" of layoffs once President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated. Which is odd, since our friends in the mainstream media have previously indicated the term "bloodbath" is a secret siren call for violence. Kerry Picket of the Washington Times spoke to several inside sources who claim top officials at the bureau are “stunned” and “shellshocked” at the overwhelming victory for Trump in Tuesday's election. Trump didn't just win -- he received an overwhelming mandate from the American people, along with solid Republican control of the Senate and very likely retaining control of the House.
