GOP Pushes for DEI in Welfare-to-Work Ad & Trump Launches America.gov AI | Marlon James

Trump runs a taxpayer-funded ad that infuriates liberals, and Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders runs an ad that is TOO white for conservatives? Maybe they’re finally getting behind DEI. Jordan Klepper dives into the political ad controversy as well as some exciting announcements from the Trump administration: You can now apply for your first passport entirely online and ask the America.gov AI chatbot for help remembering your Social Security number! Plus, Klepper chats with the star of Huckabee Sanders’s controversial ad: Brad (Grace Kuhlenschmidt). As America celebrates its 250th, we must also remember all the great Americans we lost along the way. Jordan enlists Michael Kosta to do the honors with America 250: In Memoriam. Booker Prize-winning and bestselling author Marlon James sits down with Jordan to discuss his new novel “The Disappearers," which The New York Times called "the novel of the decade, if not the century.” James discusses his childhood in Jamaica, where he hid his sexuality by learning to disappear; his use of violence and sex in his work; and literature’s role in keeping a historical record for those typically erased from mainstream history. -- 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.
