Fauci Takes the 5th Amendment While MAGA Cracks His Diary Open & Calls Him Hitler | Theo Baker

Dr. Anthony Fauci testified before the Senate in the GOP's hyperpartisan investigation into his "megalomania" and alleged mishandling of Covid, despite the fact that Trump admitted to having “a lot of respect for Dr. Fauci” during the pandemic. Jordan Klepper gets into the hearing’s biggest moments, including Fauci repeatedly invoking the Fifth Amendment, Senator Josh Hawley invoking Fauci’s diary entries, and one Instagram commenter invoking the eggplant emoji. In honor of America's 250th birthday, Michael Kosta hit the streets of NYC to ask his fellow citizens a simple question: Who is the greatest American of all time? The answers poured in, and boy were they wrong. It's John Motherf**king Stamos! Luckily, Stamos himself happened to be there to help a starstruck Kosta set the record straight. Thanks, Uncle Jesse! Theo Baker, award-winning journalist and bestselling author of "How to Rule the World: An Education in Power at Stanford University,” chats with Jordan Klepper about his freshman year research misconduct investigation into Stanford University President Marc Tessier-Lavigne, which led to his resignation in 2023. They talk about Stanford’s “Faustian bargain” with Silicon Valley, the incredible money and power thrust into undergraduates’ hands, and how Baker convinced sources to tell a teenager their secrets. -- New customers can save 35% on your first month of subscription by going to https://dosedaily.co/TDS or entering TDS at checkout. -- The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
