Steve Bannon pleaded guilty on Tuesday to defrauding donors to a private effort to build a wall on the U.S. southern border, ending a case the conservative strategist decried as a "political persecution."
Bannon, a longtime ally of President Donald Trump, pleaded guilty in state court in Manhattan to one count of scheme to defraud, a low-level felony. Spared from jail as part of a plea deal, he left court saying he "felt like a million bucks."
In this conversation with Jimmy, Bannon insists the prosecution was politically motivated and his relatively light sentence proves how weak the case against him was.

On a recent episode of The Daily Show, Jon Stewart advised Democrats that if they want to regain office, they need to chill a little on the fascist talk and actually offer an alternative.
The late-night host showed clips of news anchors and Democratic voices talking about the âlate Friday night purge,â where President Donald Trump fired at least 17 inspectors general. Reacting to the news, Stewart pulled out a prop axe and screamed, âTrump has ushered in the purge!â
âI, for one, will take full advantage by doing some unpermitted lawn work,â he joked. âAlthough, just in case Iâm misinterpreting, what is this purge about, exactly?â
When realizing what Trumpâs âpurgeâ was really about, Stewart reacted in mock horror, yelling, âNo! He got rid of 17 inspectors general? That only leavesâno one knows how many left. I have no idea.â

President Trump floated two bombshell ideas Tuesday about Gaza that has Palestinians, Israelis and the wider Middle East scrambling.
The first: that the U.S. would take over the territory. "The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip," Trump said in a White House press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "We'll own it ... We have an opportunity to do something that could be phenomenal ... the Riviera of the Middle East."
Secondly, Trump said that the entire 1.8 million plus population of Gaza would be relocated to other countries.

Not surprisingly, it has been primarily Democratic Senators asking tough questions of Robert Kennedy Jr. during his confirmation hearings to become Secretary of Health and Human Services under Trump. What may be surprising, however, is how poorly this questioning is going for the Senators, including Senator Lujan of New Mexico, who apparently didnât understand that the HHS director has no control over Medicaid spending levels, and Nevadaâs Senator Cortez Musto, who was lectured by RFK about the epidemic of childhood illness in this country.
Jimmy breaks down some of the Dem Senatorsâ more glaring failures during the RFK Jr. confirmation hearing.

Even as Palestinians are beginning to return to their bombed-out homes in northern Gaza, President Donald Trump has said he wants to take those Palestinians out of Gaza and resettle them in Egypt and Jordan. Trump said he had made this request to Jordan's King Abdullah and planned to ask Egypt's president on Sunday, too.
Describing Gaza as a "demolition site", Trump said: "You're talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing". He added that the move "could be temporary" or "could be long-term". Both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority condemned the proposal. Jordan and Egypt have also rejected the idea.

Dr. Scott Gottlieb is a poster child for the revolving door between government and industry, having served as head of the FDA under Trump before taking a high-paying gig on the board of Pfizer. Asked recently during a segment on CNN whether the COVID vaccine might be responsible for the dramatic spike in cancers in the past few years, Gottlieb predictably hemmed and hawed and sought to deflect blame away from vaccines.

After a bishop at the National Cathedral prayer service for the inauguration on Tuesday implored Donald Trump to âhave mercy uponâ immigrants and LGBTQ+ people, many have spoken out about the remarks â including Trump himself.
In a lengthy social media post early on Wednesday, Trump called the Right Rev Mariann Edgar Budde a âRadical Left hard line Trump haterâ adding that âshe brought her church into the World of politics in a very ungracious wayâ and criticized her tone as ânastyâ.
Later on in the statement, Trump described the service as âboringâ and âuninspiringâ and said that Budde and her church âowe the public an apology!â
Jimmy and Americansâ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether Buddeâs sermon will serve to bring the nation together or merely further divide us.

One area of contention within the MAGA movement is over the question of Israel. Many Trump supporters are adamantly anti-Israel and wish to sever the close ties between the US and the Jewish state.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom was confronted by a mother in Los Angeles County who said her daughter's school burned down as several fires have devastated the region this week. In a video aired by SkyNews, the woman approached Gov. Newsom in the middle of a street surrounded by burned-down buildings.
"I live here, governor. That was my daughter's school. Governor, please tell me what you're going to do," she pleaded with Newsom.
The governor responded, "I'm literally talking to the president right now to specifically answer the question of what we can do for you and your daughter."

According to authorities, the recent New Yearâs attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas are likely the work of ISIS and Al Qaeda, who are determined to initiate attacks on the U.S. homeland and terrorize the American populace. According to investigative journalist and author Whitney Webb, however, these incidents actually have the hallmarks of U.S. and Israel-based intelligence operations, although the objective â terrifying the American people â remains the same.

Popular comedian Whitney Cummings caused quite a stir during the recent CNN New Yearâs Eve broadcast with Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen as she hilariously gored sacred cows left and right, alternately skewering Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and the Democrats over the massive coverup of Bidenâs dementia, Pfizer for pushing a vaccine of dubious efficacy on the whole country and even CNN itself for plummeting ratings.

The number of homeless in the United States has grown by a third during the Biden years despite steady economic growth since the end of the pandemic. So how did this happen?

Jimmy and McHenry then discuss where the tens of billions of dollars that have been allocated to solve the homelessness crisis really went since theyâre obviously not being used as intended by the voting public.
