From the most trusted journalists at Comedy Central, it's America's only source for news.This is The Daily Show with your host, Jon Stewart.
Welcome to The Daily Show!
My name is Jon Stewart.So, let's get this straight.Tonight, and we talked about this with the audience earlier, this is my last show before the election.But not my last show.I'm coming back, baby!We're doing it over here!
But that doesn't mean I'm not stretched out.It's very stressful.The election's in a week.I only have one week left to decide who I'm gonna vote for.It is... Normally, I just vote for whoever the Washington Post endorses.
But I'm not an Amazon Prime member, so... But anyway, because it's the last week, both candidates have been out there on the trail making their closing arguments.First, Kamala Harris had a rally with Beyoncé.I cannot wait to hear.Come on!
She'll do that better than me.
Your vote is one of the most valuable tools, and we need you.
Just a heartfelt statement of the importance of the election.F**k it, I'm voting for Trump.
Well, you know, as luck would have it, Donald Trump was holding a rally of his own right here in my backyard, Madison Square Garden, world's most famous arena.They're not booing, they're saying Bruce.
I bet Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden is going to be incredibly entertaining and uplifting as the Trump campaign enters its optimistic morning in America phase with its lineup of stars.
The f***ing illegals, they get whatever they want, don't they?
They're on the side of the terrorists!She is the devil, whoever screamed that out.Her and her pimp handlers will destroy our country.She is the anti-Christ, the first Samoan Malaysian Low IQ!I love you, Donald!I mean, what?
I will never not be charmed by his girlish laugh. Now, generally, that's a lineup that you see outside Madison Square Garden, yelling at strangers as they try to get inside Madison Square Garden.
And let me just say, how dare they desecrate the stage that the piano man has consecrated?How dare you?How f***ing dare you? Listen to me.
You know how many scenes from an Italian restaurant he's going to have to play to exercise the demons that were on that scene?There is not enough Downeaster Alexas in the world to clear out that xenophobic stench, you pieces of meat.
But of course, for the media, there was one moment in particular that raised the alarms.
The opening act, grabbing headlines for all the wrong reasons.A comedian who offered unfunny, racist, cringeworthy jokes.Basically calling Puerto Ricans trash.
The most repulsive racial jokes about Latinos.Disgusting and hateful.
So incredibly crude.Frankly, just too X-rated to play here.
Extremely vile so-called jokes.Extremely vile so-called jokes.She name-checked my comedy album from the 90s. Did I really?I don't know who's AI, me or that guy.
Now, obviously, in retrospect, having a roast comedian come to a political rally a week before Election Day and roasting a key voting demographic, probably not the best decision by the campaign politically.
But to be fair, the guy's really just doing what he does.I mean, here he is at the Tom Brady roast a few months ago.
The great Jeff Ross, ladies and gentlemen.Jeff is so Jewish, he only watches football for the coin toss.Gronk, you look like the Nazi that kept burning himself on the ovens.
Kevin is so small that when his ancestors picked cotton, they called it deadlifting.
Yes, yes, of course.Terrible, boo, yes. There's something wrong with me.I find that guy very funny.So, I'm sorry.I don't know what to tell you.
I mean, bringing him to a rally and have him not do roast jokes, that'd be like bringing Beyonce to a rally and not have... But you know what?Those people, those are just the underlings.
And they brought a real dark apocalyptic version of America to the stage.I'm sure former President Trump will temper those passions.
On day one, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to get the criminals out.
Day one.Have a snack, meet the staff. Day one is typically we just read the syllabus.There's no, generally no homework.But okay, day one, mass deportation.How exactly is that gonna happen?
I will invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
Who the **** told Donald Trump about the Alien Enemies Act of 1798?Because I'm going to bet you something.He did not come to the meeting and go, hey, why don't we use the 1798 Alien Enemies Act?Would that apply?
He's not a history buff, as we remember from his dissertation on Robert E. Lee's role in the critical Civil War battle of Gettysburg.
And the statement of Robert E. Lee, never fight uphill, me boys.Never fight uphill.They were fighting uphill.He said, wow, that was a big mistake.
He should have used the Alien Enemies Act 1798 to clear his enemies, wow, from the man himself.That is his priority.Day one, I'm going to round up all the so-called illegal immigrants.It's a tough policy.
But I guess it's got to be done, and it's not like anyone else, i.e.legal immigrants or American citizens, are going to be caught up in that dragnet.I'm sure that Trump's got a very detailed and precise plan.How many people are we talking about?
Millions of illegals.They think it's 2 million.It's probably five times that amount.You hear 15, 16.Sometimes you hear 17.We have 21 million, at least 21 million.I think it's much more than 21.
So we are going to be rounding up and deporting between two and 21 or more million people.But listen, they're all bad. And they've all committed terrible crimes.And we have cataloged, without due process, the terrible things they have done, yes?
In Springfield, they're eating the dogs, the people that came in.They're eating the cats.They're eating the pets of the people that live there.
So between 2 and 21 million people, and while they weren't actually doing that, still, chase them with guns.Because at the very least, they are here illegally.Yes, they are illegal.
Donald Trump threatening to deport thousands of migrants in the country legally.So that one's tricky.But I'm confident that on day one, when Trump does his mass deportation of anywhere from 2 to 100 million people, it won't be you.
It'll be them because of how precise Trump is, especially when it comes to people of color.I know Willie Brown very well.
In fact, I went down in a helicopter with him.
The African-American politician in question was not Willie Brown, but rather this man named Holden.
Holden saying, quote, Willie is the short black guy living in San Francisco.I'm a tall black guy living in Los Angeles.I guess we all look alike.
I guess there's some confusion there. But he's not deporting California politicians day one.And, you know, that story made him look racist.It's not the point.He really can't tell white people apart either.You said Marla's in this photo?
That's Marla, yeah.That's my wife.
Which woman are you pointing to right now?
Here.The person you just pointed to was Eugene Carroll.Oh, I see.Who is that?
And the person, the woman on the right is your then wife, Yolanda?
I don't know.This was the picture.
You know what I just realized?Donald Trump doesn't have affairs.Just thinks everyone is his wife.So clearly, clearly an attempt to deport between 30 and 500 million people. is going to be complicated.
So it's going to be important to know how carefully the former president would execute this plan.
A lot of the millions of people have had children here who are American citizens.So yes to mass deportation even of. women and children.
So we're going to look at it very closely.The way you phrase it is exactly right.
You put one wrong person onto a bus or onto an airplane and your radical left lunatics will try and make it sound like the worst thing that's ever happened because it's the worst thing that ever happened to them.
The American citizens you mistakenly deport. Yeah, Trump is like, and then makes me the bad guy.And why is my wife interviewing me?You are, you are my wife, right?Marla?Ivana?Ivanka?I don't know.
This sounds awful, but as everyone knows, you can never listen to what Trump's saying and hear it.I think you're taking everything a little bit too literally.Look, Trump speaks in hyperbole.This is nothing new.
He's telling you what was in his heart?You always want to go by what's come out of his mouth rather than look at what's in his heart.
You're right.Why hold former presidents to what they say they're going to do from their mouth holes? Perhaps if we only look inside Trump's heart, then we could see what... Oh!That's not... French fries and... That's a lot of... That's not good.
Let's see if there's anything else behind that that we could... Oh, God!And bear spray!Eee!I wonder which one of those is good cholesterol.Look... You know what?Sure, maybe Trump's just talk.
But on day one, when the deportation of between 2 and 11 billion people begins, what will be the guiding principle?Perhaps we should ask the dead-eyed architect of these plans, Stephen Miller.
America is for Americans and Americans only!
Oh, that makes sense. We're only deporting people who've come here illegally.Or people who have come here illegally, but sneak illegally.Or people who have children who are actually citizens.
Or some people who look like they may have come here illegally.Or people that have protested the war in Gaza.Or a special prosecutor Trump doesn't like, like Jack Smith.Which, by the way, name a more American name than Jack f***ing Smith.
Where are you going to deport him to?Faneuil Hall in Boston?Or maybe we're just going to be deporting the people that always bring wretchedness and want.Oh, I'm sorry, that's how we described the Irish in 1832.
Or maybe we're just going to deport people whose race inherently has a certain kind of criminality.Oh, I'm sorry, that was the Italians in 1911.
The point is, every one of these groups was at a place and time on the wrong side of not being American enough.And right now you think you're safe because the group Trump's talking about, it's not you.
as if, are you sure this isn't my wife, Donald Trump, can tell the fucking difference or even cares.That the day one implementation of the 1798 law that was last used to intern Japanese and German citizens in World War II will be a fine tooth comb.
It just makes me very sad.The whole thing.John, John, John.What the heck?
Right here.Jessica, is it really you?Yeah, of course it's me.You think I'm a hologram, hmm?You think Comedy Central has hologram money?I'm just here in real life to tell you something, okay?Don't be sad.John, everything's gonna be okay.For you.
A white guy.A rich old white guy.
You think my rich old white guy privilege will save me?
Maybe, but honestly, how much longer do you really have living wise?You have a terminal D, right?What?A termie disease.Are you dying?No, I'm fine.Why would you think that?I don't know.Just your general vibe and the whole, this face thing.Woof.
I mean, but I get why you've aged so much.It's been a whole ass year of you grinding it out every single day on the show.
Oh, really?Damn.Okay, double woof.Look, it doesn't matter, okay?No, come on, come on.It doesn't matter because for non-old white people, for people of color, and women and queer people, it's gonna be a completely different story, all right?
Now, let me give you some advice.Yeah, please. John, I know you're exhausted.Hell, I'm exhausted.Everybody's exhausted.Anger and disappointment in our political discourse is exhausting.
But it's easy to throw up our hands and be like, fine, f**k it, I'm tired.Go ahead and take people's rights.I'm just gonna plow through a case of Trulies and binge 52 episodes of Love Island. Oh, oh, you want to know what those are?
Trulies are hard seltzer and Love Island is like Gilligan's Island with ****.Oh!What channel is that on?Hey, now, focus, okay?I just want to be clear, all right?Do not let them exhaust you.Don't let the constant draining bullshit wear you out.
Do not turn away.Look right down that barrel and say, not today, apathy.I'm only having half a case of Trulies. And no matter what happens, we have to throw our arms around the people who need us the most and hang the f*** on.All right?
Except for you, John.I'm here now.You can let go, sweetheart.Let go, John.I'll tell them your story.
But I just signed on for another year, so it's... What?
Oh, my God, you're crazy.You think you're gonna live for another year?That's optimistic.Jessica Williams, everybody!
When we come back, Governor Josh Trudeau is gonna be joining us.Don't go away.Come here!
Are you ready to have your bacon-loving mind blown?Well, here it is.Oscar Mayer takes 12 hours to smoke some delicious thick-cut bacon.Most other bacon out there is smoked for four to six hours, but Oscar Mayer doubles that time.
Let's put that into perspective.You could drive from Detroit to Omaha, and Oscar Mayer thick-cut bacon wouldn't be finished smoking. You could spend the morning and all afternoon watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy in full.
You could even go to bed, get a full night's sleep, wake up, shower, have breakfast, including some delicious Oscar Mayer bacon, and then drive to work and to think that the bacon would still be smoking.
The point is, all of these take at least half a day to complete, and Oscar Mayer takes the best cuts and smokes them over real hardwood chips for a really long time until it tastes really good. So buy some Oscar Mayer thick cut bacon now and enjoy.

Welcome back to the Daily Show.My name is Jon Stewart, as we spoke about earlier.My guest tonight, Pennsylvania's Chief Executive.Please welcome to the program, Governor Josh Shapiro.Sir! Nice to see you.Good to be seen.Let me tell you something.
Oh, boy.It has been so long since I have had a guest my size.They come in here with their height.Yeah.I did this for you.Thank you.You're having a good day.You got re-elected for another year.
I'm just trying to help you out here, man.I was re-elected for another year.
There you go.It was that easy, right?
It was that easy.It pulled me.Put a couple of signs up. Look, it's very clear to me, people are on edge in a way I haven't seen in a very long time.In your mind, you're on the ground there.Who will be the president of Pennsylvania?
My wife Lori will be the president.Really it won't be me.She will win.Are they tired yet of the swing state status of the constant barnstorming your your lovely state of Pennsylvania.I mean look yes and no.
It's close.Right.But but let me just for those of you out there kind of worrying about this.The last two presidential races in Pennsylvania came down to a less than a point. So, of course, the polls are going to be close.
Now, are folks tired of maybe some of the commercials and things on TV?Yeah, but I think folks also understand that they have an extraordinary power here.And with that power comes a real responsibility.
I think maybe the one... Dude, you can't just sit here and quote Spider-Man.No, that's not... You can't just throw... No, but... Power comes responsibility.How about I go, let me take a leap here.
I want to take a leap from Spider-Man to Ben Franklin.Okay, follow me on this.Follow me on this.
Ben Franklin, famously one of the signatories to the Constitution, signs the Constitution, walks out of Independence Hall, is greeted by a woman on those cobblestone streets of Philadelphia.
She looks him in the eye and says, Mr. Franklin, what do we have here, a monarchy or a republic?Franklin looks her in the eye and says, a republic, if you can keep it. Those five words, if you can keep it, that's been our calling card.
That's been our charge.So yes, we enjoy this sort of temporary status as a swing state.But let me tell you something.We've been fighting for democracy for 248 years.And I'll be damned if we're going to stand down on this task.
We're going to stand up, and we're going to get the job done.And I believe we're going to elect Kamala Harris the next president of the United States. By the way, by the way, I have to ask you a question.By the way, fun fact here.Yes.
Ben Franklin, my predecessor.It's true.He's like the, what is it, the Craig Kilborn of Pennsylvania, right?Is he real?He was the first post.
He was the OG. of their was Ben Franklin, the governor of Pennsylvania, it was said that that is not something that I knew was a part of the story.I knew that he would walk out on the street and women would just to cost him.
Yeah, the form of that we would be yeah, not a similarity.I will say this you know we talk a lot about democracy and fighting for freedom and all those kinds of things.
Yeah, and I'm of a mindset and it gets to something that you've done in Pennsylvania. Donald Trump to me is a symptom of a government that is at times not particularly agile and responsive to the needs of the people, right?
It's what breeds space sometimes for demagogues.You did something in Pennsylvania that I thought was really interesting that I hadn't seen in a long time.95 burned down. There was, for those of you who drive in that area, 95 is the aorta.
Yeah, 176,000 cars and trucks every day.Right.It burns down, and I'm immediately thinking, because, you know, I'm aware of construction projects.I live in New York City.I immediately think, well, oh, Pennsylvania is now closed.And it'll be nice.
I have family there.And hopefully, they'll be alive. 15 or 20 years from now.Yeah.You fixed it in what?12 days.
What-what was... what was done?Well, first off, we brought the attitude that I talk about every day in governing, our GSD attitude, and I think I can say it here, our get-shit-done attitude.I think... I'm gonna stop you right there.Don't you ever...
I assume I got bleeped.No, but I'm serious.I think a lot of times, folks don't have that attitude in government.And they sort of let things happen.We have a get shit done attitude.
We have the best workers in the world in those Philadelphia building joints.But there are barriers.There are regulatory barriers.And we summoned everybody together.
And when folks told me it was going to take a month to figure that out, I'd say you have an hour.When they said we need three days, I said you've got a day.And what we constantly did was push the envelope.And you know what we found?
When we push people, They felt empowered, and they were able to stand up, and they made decisions when they were standing on that roadway.And they were innovative, and they were creative.And we have the best workers in the world.
And we showed that when the eyes of the world were on us in Pennsylvania, we know how to get shit done.And we got it done, and we got it done in just 12 days.
But it's an amazing story.But you understand my point, which is, oh, why aren't we doing that for housing?We should be.Right.So for those who are critical of it, of government, you look at that situation and go, wait a minute, this can be done?
And it's just a question of, so have those of us on the left who believe government still has a big role to play in people's lives, have we in some ways undercut our own argument by overregulation or the types of things that keep us from getting shit done?
Yeah, I think so.Look, I believe government can be a force for good in people's lives.Otherwise, I wouldn't be doing this work.Otherwise, I wouldn't have dedicated my life to public service.But I think sometimes you're right.
Overregulation, too much overthinking, and taking power away from the people who work in government, who have dedicated their lives to serving others.
And instead, you set up a process on top of a process on top of a process, and you never actually get things done.It's one of my biggest frustrations.And by the way,
I think it's one of the things, to your point earlier, that has maybe led to people feeling frustrated and looking for others who might be dangerous, destructive forces like Donald Trump to kind of shake things up, right?We've heard that before.
I want to shake things up in a good way with people who give a damn about other people's lives and who want to lift people up, not tear them down.I think we're proving how to do that in Pennsylvania.
What happened with 95, in 12 days you took a disaster and re-opened it.Have you thought about doing that with the Pennsylvania Turnpike?I think we're doing all right on the Turnpike.You're not doing all right on the Turnpike.
Well, you're by the Jersey side.
Whenever I get on the Turnpike, you get a certain point past like Bucks County or wherever the nice people, and then all of a sudden the whole ride is this.Yeah.
And then all of a sudden, somewhere around Happy Valley, it just goes down one lane, and you're like, what the hell's going on around here?
It's infrastructure night here at the Daly's.Thank you. No, but listen, I mean, there's a serious point.
When people see their roads being fixed, when they see their internet being connected, when they see the lead being taken out of their water lines so their kids can drink water and the parents don't have to worry about it, that's real stuff.
That matters to people.That's putting points on the board for folks.That's what I'm trying to do every day in Pennsylvania.By the way, that's what Kamala Harris is going to do for this country.That was a, by the way, beautiful thing.
Beautiful. So when you have that experience with 95, did you go back into the kind of infrastructure agenda or the other things in Pennsylvania and was it an epiphany?
Did you think to yourself, oh, I've got to go in there with a more forceful, innovative attitude to do that?And have there been other things that have occurred that you thought, Hey, man, I think we've got something here in terms of a methodology.
We did.I mean, let's stay with roads and bridges.Last year in Pennsylvania, as a result of that GSD attitude, we repaired more poor condition bridges than any other state in the entire country.
We did that because we were aggressive, we put the funding together, and we empowered people to say, that bridge is a problem, let's get to work, let's get it done.
People want to see their tax dollars go to things that benefit them, shorten their commute times, get their kids to school on time, whatever it is. And we're getting that done in the Commonwealth.
Connected to their lives.Was it hard for you?You were very much talked about as a vice presidential candidate, and you were vetted.Were you vetted?I was.And when they vetted you, did they go,
Like, after they vetted you, you're like, you see how many gummies that dude had on his thing?
I wish.I'm pretty boring.Honestly, the hardest part of that vetting part was finding all my old taxes.That was very hard.How far back do they make you go?Yeah, it goes back pretty far.
One night, I'm sitting there on the floor, on all fours, trying to go through all the paperwork.Yeah, I don't need to know that.No, no, no, no, no.And my wife walks in, and she goes... Wait. I walked into that, didn't I?I did.
My wife walks in, she looks at me and goes, if only the American people could see you right now.I'm literally just trying to find our taxes.Well, right now they're imagining it.
But it does surprise me.Doesn't the federal government have your tax records?Yeah, I don't know.Look, there wasn't much to see, John.
All right, can we be done now?
Stay!So you're on all fours.This is not where I thought this was going to go.Was it disappointing?Was there a feeling that you had of like, you know, people said like, oh, it's because he's Jewish or too ambitious.
Like, was there something inside you that thought,
Okay, not all this and first off Kamala Harris made an outstanding pick and Tim says he's done he's a great guy his wife Gwen is great friends with my wife Lori these are great public servants and Tim Walz is going to be a great vice president of the United States and I'm all in for Kamala Harris and Tim also right.
Pennsylvania, I mean you're you're really to you what's the key in Pennsylvania that you believe like he's got a tremendous amount of strength you think in in the rural areas does it come down once again to sort of the suburbs of Bucks County is it about turnout in Philadelphia.
What are the parameters of what makes Pennsylvania's a complicated place.Yeah.
Look, I guess the answer is all of the above, right?Right.You mentioned Bucks County, pretty swingy county in a swing state.Sure.Turnout in Philly is critically important.But don't write off those rural areas.
I spent a lot of time out there, spent a lot of time listening to folks delivering for them.They'll vote for a Democrat.The good news is Kamala Harris did.I mean, years ago, those were really blue areas, the blue collar areas. Yep.
And look, some of that's changed over time.But part of it is, I think, they've been sort of thirsting for someone who's going to speak to their challenges.I'll give you one example of that.
When I was running for governor, I spent a lot of time in those communities.I remember being in a hunt club in Butler County.And one of the folks was talking to me about the fact that they feel like they can never get ahead.
They don't have a college degree.They feel like they can never get ahead.And that folks in government are never actually talking to them, never actually trying to lift them up.
First thing I did when I got elected governor, literally first executive order I signed was doing away with the college degree requirement for 92% of state government jobs.It's 66,000 jobs.That's a requirement.
You can't work in state government without a college degree.
You couldn't afford, now you can.Are most states that way or is that? I can't speak to the other states, but a whole lot of states, a lot of municipalities, a lot of the private sector things.
We set these artificial barriers to entry where folks aren't given a shot.Listen, I think people should have the freedom to chart their own course and the opportunity to succeed.And when you say to someone, hey, We don't value your military service.
We don't value your service in a union just because you didn't go to college.That says to a whole swath of the public, we're not into you.We're not there for you.
Well, Kamala Harris, she's showing up in those communities that I spend a whole lot of time in, and she announced that the federal government would be doing away with that college degree requirement, opening up the doors of opportunity to more people, as it should be.
I didn't even know that was a requirement, quite frankly. I think Democrats should never write off these rural communities.We've got to show up, we've got to speak to people, and we've got to make sure we show them that we can deliver for them.
You know, I'm surprised sometimes because I do hear that a lot about, oh, people don't talk to those communities.But, you know, in general, I think there's a great deal of respect for heartland communities.
If anything, I've always felt kind of the opposite, that there's this feeling that that's real America and that in areas, you know, in the cities and things like that, that that is, that that's looked down upon or that's ridiculed.So I think,
All of those communities, maybe it's less of a blue-red state divide and more of an urban-rural kind of divide.
Yeah, look, I think you get in trouble if you ever say one part of America is more real than any other part of America.That doesn't deserve it.They do that all the time.
I mean, there's a lot of... Like, all you remember is, oh, the Democrats are communists who don't live in real America, and... I think the Republicans do that.
I think what Democrats are doing a far better job of, and I think you're seeing it more and more in this campaign, is treating all people with respect, no matter what you look like, where you come from, who you love, or who you pray to.
Look, that's one of the biggest beefs I have with Donald Trump.I mean, he is always trying to create others in our society, separating people out.You talked about this in your opening.When you start separating it out one person,
because they live in this community or they worship a certain way.You make everyone less safe.You limit the possibility of not just them, but of all Americans.
Well, it's also easy.I mean, it's, you know, what they're they're not just separating people.They're separating the people who are most vulnerable.I mean, I live in New York City.
Every commercial is either we're being overrun by hordes of gang members that are illegal or trans people are taking over all of women's sports. And you really do think sometimes, like, oh, shit.They are?Like, it actually, like, it gets to you.
And you realize, like, oh, that's a strategy, to find the most vulnerable people that people don't really protect and blow it out to be as though it's the most crucial issue that anybody could see.
I mean, dividing us.Look, Donald Trump plays a game every day of subtraction. Right?I think we're trying to play a game of addition, bringing more people into the conversation, engaging more people.
I think when you divide people the way Trump is, you may get some short-term political win.Like the presidency. Let's hope not.Let's hope not.No, no, I'm just saying.
But I think it's dangerous and destructive for America.Dangerous and destructive for America.Here's another one.And they're saying that this may be one of the crucial issues of the entire election, which is Israel, Gaza, Palestine.
You and I are both, I'd say, 5'7-ish Jews.
Yeah.I go with 5'9 on my, you know, on my card.
I'm sure you do. If you need me to scribble on that card for you, I'd be happy to.Where are we going with this, John?So I find that because I'm Jewish, people turn to me and immediately go, like, Israel will do something.
And they'll turn to me and go. You're going to let that happen?
Well, you must be an expert.
You must be an expert or something like that.But in truth, I want to know your level of discomfort with the way things are progressing and what impact it may have on the election here.
Because you and I are both raised probably in a very similar way to always be on the side of Israel and never again, all those other things.And it's been really uncomfortable to have big cracks in that facade for me.
And I wonder if you face the same thing.
Yeah.I mean, look, obviously, folks ask me about it all the time, as I'm sure they ask you.I haven't found it in my job description as governor of Pennsylvania, but I'm happy to oblige and address it.
Right.You don't get to make treaties and things like that?No, no.We don't do that.You never thought about attacking Delaware?I do think we could take them, but I do love Delaware.
No problem.Listen. I have enough capacity in my heart to mourn for the Israelis for what happened on October 7th.It was horrible.Hamas is a terrorist group, and Hamas murdered 1,200 people.They took 250 people hostage, including Americans, John.
And they brutally raped and sexually assaulted women.It was awful. And I have a lot of capacity in my heart to mourn for those and to feel horrible for what happened there.
I also have the capacity in my heart to see what's happening in Gaza to these innocent folks, these women and children.And I mourn for them as well.I want these hostages home.I want this war to end.And I want us to figure out a way.
Because it seems like the logical human answer, which is, oh, I mourn for the hostages and I mourn for those lives lost.And I also think what's happening in Gaza is untenable and tragic and a catastrophe.So why do we feel so helpless?
It just, how are we not able to impact and bring that to a close?Do you think about how that will come to a close?How do we get a free and safe Israel and a free and safe and independent Palestine?Well, my hope is that.
Yeah. with the hostages immediately returned home, with an end to this war, that we can create an environment, not just in Israel and in Gaza, but throughout the Middle East, where folks want peace, where we actually have leaders.
who are willing to make peace.I would think the folks do.
It seems like the leaders are the ones.
I'm getting at it.I'm trying to be real here.I mean, look, Hamas is a terrorist group.They're not interested in making peace.Now, I would argue Benjamin Netanyahu is not interested in making peace.
And so you've got people who are, in theory, supposed to be sitting at the table and discussing ways to try and help their people exist who don't actually want that. Now, I'm not putting Netanyahu on the same scale as a terrorist group.
I want to be really clear and really precise in my words.But we have got to involve a broader Middle East coalition.
We've got to involve other nations of the world who will hopefully be able to come in and create the opportunity for a secure Israel, for a peaceful place, for Palestinians to be able to live.Independent, free state.Economic opportunities.
I do believe in a two-state solution, and I have for some of that.
Look at this.This is... By the way, what is happening right now is every Passover dinner throughout, generally, my entire lifetime.Is this what it is?Yeah, I have... So, most of my relatives are not politically aligned with where I am.
And so, a lot of times at dinner, it gets feisty.Does it?
Do you win those arguments?
I do not. It generally ends with them just going, then leave.In your own home, or?Usually in my own home.Well, listen, man, I know these are all difficult conversations, those kinds of things.I appreciate you being here.
Any advice for those who are just trying to survive that final week and getting to the election, and any advice to people that have friends in Pennsylvania that can urge them to do anything to get involved?
Well I would say to anybody here from New York, hop on a train, hop on a bus, hop in your car, bike, whatever.Come to Pennsylvania, knock on some doors, and take the sort of energy that you have and channel it into action.
We could use a whole lot more help there.We've got a hell of a ground game in Pennsylvania.We welcome people to support us.
And the people of Pennsylvania, if let's say we were all to show up on bicycles,
Yeah.I mean, I would not show up in a Mets hat.I would not show up in a Giants jersey.Do you know I have a bet?
So Jalen Brunson of the Knicks, right?
I remember him.The point guard.Villanova.Villanova.
Yep.So he bet me that if the Giants lose to the Eagles, I have to come to Madison Square Garden in a Saquon Barkley Eagles jersey.Yeah.And I don't know if you remember, the Eagles beat the Giants.
And so I have to go through that humiliation.Yeah, I look forward to that.Yeah.Ladies and gentlemen, Governor Josh Shapiro.
Are you ready to have your bacon-loving mind blown?Well, here it is.Oscar Mayer takes 12 hours to smoke some delicious thick-cut bacon.Most other bacon out there is smoked for four to six hours, but Oscar Mayer doubles that time.
Let's put that into perspective.You could drive from Detroit to Omaha, and Oscar Mayer thick-cut bacon wouldn't be finished smoking. You could spend the morning and all afternoon watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy in full.
You could even go to bed, get a full night's sleep, wake up, shower, have breakfast, including some delicious Oscar Mayer bacon, and then drive to work and to think that the bacon would still be smoking.
The point is, all of these take at least half a day to complete, and Oscar Mayer takes the best cuts and smokes them over real hardwood chips for a really long time until it tastes really good. So buy some Oscar Mayer thick cut bacon now and enjoy.
