Jon Stewart digs into the trial of comically corrupt Senator Robert Menendez of New Jersey, and in a new segment called "How Dumb Is You?" asks the senator how he got caught engaging in such obvious illegal corruption, while government officials like Nancy Pelosi, Richard Burr, and Roy Blunt have been getting away with legal corruption for years. #DailyShow #JonStewart #corruption

    Accepting bribes? What does he think he is, a Supreme Court justice?
  • @frankn254
    Cash in the congressional jacket is so very symbolic of American politicians.
  • @bobdamano9606
    It's still annoys me more how CHEAP a congressman is.
  • @JohnDoe-jh5yr
    Congress is regulated by Congress. SCOTUS is regulated by SCOTUS. Seems like we need more checks and balances.
  • @JustAMinuteYT
    Lobbying = Bribing. Period. We need to stop calling it Lobbying.

    This needs to be watched by every U.S. citizen over the age of 14.

    "the legal corruption system in the senate is so lucrative" is terrifyingly 1000% correct.
  • @tarkov666
    And this is why we need a free press
  • @nonna_sof5889
    Menendez is over here literally lining his pockets.
  • @jcwoodward0629
    Jon Stewart man…. How badly have we missed this guy? Firing shots at all directions. This kind of corruption is what pushed so many folks over the edge to tear it all down with a game show host… glad he’s back to call them out on a weekly basis
  • @doxide
    The Daily Show needs to hire John Stewart bodyguards! We need to protect this national treasure at all cost!
  • @1midnightfish
    Meanwhile, Ukraine keeps having to deal with some of these people lecturing them about corruption 🤬 Thank you Jon and TDS, this was brilliant
  • @weezadam
    Jon is my hero. Thank you for calling out Pelosi for her refusal to bring up the insider trading bill in Congress when she had the Speakership and power to do so. Both parties are complicit in their crookedness.
  • @seanwebb605
    It's great that they aren't pulling punches. If it is a Democrat/Liberal behaving badly then be consistent and call them out. Stay true to your values. This is part of the answer to reducing polarization in public debate of social and political issues. It's doesn't become okay when your team does it. Bravo. It only makes the reasonable criticism of MAGA more credible.

    Corruption amongst American politicians is so rampant it’s been Normalized. Citing Menendez is like writing a speeding ticket at the Indianapolis 500.
