Cannon herself. No labels was looking for a hero. And a hero never emerged. That was the biggest waste of 80 million to ruin a brand ive ever seen. Its not for lack of trying. Thats for sure. It was not based in reality, just like the campaign was not based in reality. Biden world is trying to nuke rfk out of the race. A 300,000 new jobs added in march is a great number truth social, youve seen on the move. Its ridiculous. He has no revenue. Slamming trump media and its investors, comparing the company to meme stocks with no real value. Why are you even talking about this . Its a scam, just like everything hes ever been involved in is some sort of con. Good evening once again, i am stephanie ruhle, and we are now 214 days away from the election. This week there was more back and forth in trumps many legal cases, denials of motions to delay or dismiss, expanded gag orders, and jack smith himself making it clear hes had enough with the judge overseeing the classified documents case. Lets bring in our very special nightcap crew, my dearest friend, my true partner, ali velshi, msnbc Chief Correspondent is here, amanda littman, cofounder and coexecutive director of run for something, comedian roy wood junior, also a former correspondent for the daily show, and nbc news correspondent allie vitali. Welcome to all, i start with you. Trumps delayed train seems to be coming possibly to an end, the hush money case is starting in less than two weeks, do you think theres any chance we actually see a verdict before election day . In that case, maybe. Most reporters know this, but, thats so difficult about watching these court cases, your watching the hush money case go forward, but i think thats probably the one that has the least bearing on americans ability to vote or not vote for trump as if their opinions arent made already. But things like the documents case and the Jack Smith January 6th case in addition to whats going on in Fulton County where you literally have the guy on tape saying give me the votes i need to win these things, those are the ones that are impactful and those are the ones your watching him kick the can down the road on. The Stormy Daniels stuff, people had that in their brain from five years ago, i dont think its changing anything. If you talk to everyone, they agree its the weakest case in terms of impact, so that might be the one we see but the ones that voters should see are the other ones. People think its that case, its about his wife, its about adultery, its not. Its about paying someone off to hide information leading into an election. Heres my question. Are too many people expecting that if and when there is a verdict, trump will automatically be found guilty . Because lets be clear, he might not be. And if hes not found guilty, then he is going to use that as fuel to go, see, im not guilty on this one, theyre all, what his favorite words, witchhunt . Im happy that theyre spreading the cases out, now, like beyonce albums. Because before, it was a logjam, the manafort days. You could think about was one this actually is. Theyre fun, i dont know that this is, i wanted to talk to ali velshi about this all week long, donald trump even though his delays are ending, this guy gets break after break, whether its the judge in florida, whether he found a guy to get in the hundred 75 million bond, now, Truth Social Being A publicly traded company that could end up making him hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars, next week hes going to a golf tournament, also stands to make a lot of money. Truth social. What is your take on this . Today with the rest of the market up it was down again, it loses value every day. But even losing its still making him, on paper, a ton. On paper its half of what it was when it debuted. One never knows how this all goes. One of the important points about truth social is that its not exactly a meme stocks but its got all the makings of it. Its not institutional investors, not banks and Insurance Companies and funds and things like that, its trump vance. And, it loses more money than we thought it lost, 58 million in its first year. The interesting thing here that you pointed out to me, the other day, is that its partnered with another firm, the largest shareholder in that firm was the largest shareholder, in ticktock, richest man in pennsylvania, and its the holding is a little bit weird. This guy wasnt that into trump is the first place, hes not his supported him historically, and now all of a sudden the deal is in the works, but he has a conversation with donald trump, they acknowledge they met, they wanted knowledge what they talked about. Donald trumps opinion of tick tock, banding it in the United States, changed. There could be all sorts of massive people buying up this stock, potentially currying favor with the next president of the United States. Nobody buys this stock because it looks like a good investment. What should i do with my 401 k . I tell people this is not my jam, i cant advise you on that. Nobody is advising anybody to buy truth social. Or whatever its called, trump media stock. Its just a weird company that doesnt mean anything. For many years amazon did not make a profit, but you knew something was happening. There was a bet on the idea that jeff bezos was very smart, smarter than most people and would find a way to make money. Nobody is saying that about donald j trump. You cant tell me youre ahead of the game when youre selling bibles and gold sneakers. Thats not a person that has a good idea. But the craziest thing is, theres a market for it. So is donald trump not the luckiest guy in the world, that there is even a market for the bibles or the shoes or the fact that he has a publicly traded company, that does nothing, that loses tens of millions of dollars, and the whole company is him crazy posting . And the investors we saw today, mostly republican donors, someone with a questionable relationship to the russian oligarchs. Not a surprising list of people. I do think its a little, maybe self sabotaging on trumps part but hes taking money from people that could be giving to his campaign and funding his legal fights, and instead directing them to meme stocks. Is the ultimate way that theyre giving money to his campaign. Guess what they can do . Write off their lawsuits. They cant write off the campaign contributions. Max out on the political side and another avenue for funding this stuff, and again, and you can do it without anybody knowing your name. The influence piece you pointed to thailand again is so important. The thing Congress Loves to talk about is who was hunter biden Doing Business with . The thing democrats come back with what i which i think is a fair question is, do oversight of Hunter Bidens business. Do oversight of Jared Kushner and the investments hes gotten from the saudis and the deals that they were doing potentially as he was leaving the white house, but was involved in foreign diplomacy. All of this stuff is involved with each other, and, its worth looking into. Not a guy ahead of his game. If you are a saudi wealth fund, you have a lot of choices in the world. You can find the best investors anywhere in the world. Jared kushner is not on the top 500,000 of the worlds best investors. Whatever. Lets talk about president biden. Today, another example should be a great day for him. A bang up jobs report, which yet again shows what an extraordinary economic recovery weve had. The economy is strong, but, from a political standpoint, its still a challenging political story, because we have an overhang of inflation, and life is expensive for people. How does the president navigate this, and get that positive message out, like clockwork . [ laughing ] im looking for advice for you. Lets talk right now, why does this always happen with us . Always. I think the inflation and job news is indicative of what has been happening in the entirety of the biden administration. Which is good news that its able to be spun into something that means nothing. When the truth is that theyve done a lot of monumental policies on a lot of monumental things, and its more about, how do you get people to understand why this is good . There is a degree, a lack of what trump has that i think biden did not have, in 2020. With the ability to simplify things. Politics is not simple, its a complicated thing. But because trump is so binary, good, bad, lock up, wall. And willing to not tell the truth. Correct. And the truth is wordy. The truth is not, the truth is complicated. Thats what the administration continues to struggle with. I do not know how they do that, and on top of that, youre still finding the argument about age which ive never understood, because the other dude is only four years younger . Two years younger than you . Thats the question, how do they show it, not tell it on infrastructure, on the way that theyve capped Insulin Prices at 35, that stuff matters. Heres the wordiness problem. I want to say, the president cant control inflation, but you want to look at the camera and say but look what he has done. Hes trying to cap credit card late fees at eight dollars, trying to crack down on closing costs, trying to tackle excess fees on College Loans and Student Loan Borrowers and reining in the rental market. That doesnt fit. In a bumper sticker. So how does the president get this into the american psyche, because people are going, lifes so expensive. And President Trump hasnt offered any economic solutions. Him saying im going to slap tariffs, thats worse. Its actually that on every topic. Whatever you think joe biden didnt do well enough on, im not sure, with the exception of lowering your taxes, which is a big one, and deregulation, which is a big one to corporations and ceos, that anything would have been done better by donald trump. He wasnt better at any of that stuff. Remember the time we were covering infrastructure week every time it happened, and he derailed it all within three hours of launching it because he would tweet that somebodys firing or hes changing a law . Thats the thing, donald trump is binary, but the one thing that is working against joe biden is that the price of an egg is more expensive than it was a few years ago. Inflation is coming under control, but prices arent going backwards because prices dont go backwards. And if prices were going backwards in our economy that would be a really bad thing on many levels for our economy. But youre paying more for an egg, for a tomato. And the cost of housing in the cost of childcare continues to go up, for a lot of folks like myself included, those are your biggest budget lines. Those are things that the president can do anything about. But hes trying to peer hes trying, and its a hard argument to make because youre trying to tell people, the thing that they feel is real for their lived experience, theyre wrong. The economy is great, and if someone told me that, it must be good for someone else because its not good for me. The thing that you feel, and the thing that is your lived experience right now, are diverging. Your lived experience is a better economic reality than the vibe, and thats the disconnect. So as were saying this right now, on twitter, theyre going to be going nuts saying its the medias fault. Youre talking down the economy, your convincing the American People that the economy sucks, youre to blame, but its actually the lived experience. I think that its hard to tell someone who is struggling that everything is okay. I dont know how youre able to flip that, and biden cant afford to do it, what the campaign is seemingly not interested in doing is going, youre right, it is bad. They are doing it now. But, talking about it doesnt necessarily make people feel better. Life is expensive. Somebody who is out of the game, i have to ask you, no labels. 80 million later, all the big ideas, very few tv appearances, nancy jacobson, im looking at you. And theyre out. Whats your take . I use my official term earlier, but that was the word that i think i heard from so many operatives who had been texting me nonstop over the last few months being, no labels have done this, and now they finally get to exhale. I think the people who are always taking no labels more seriously were the biden folks. They had staffed around this, they were prepared to launch a fullscale attack to try to keep these folks, whoever they recruited, out of the game. I think theyre happy they dont have to do that anymore, but the fact that there was this backandforth that there should be another candidate in the first place when the outreach wasnt even really existing, i remember talking to the nikki haley folks who were like, no one ever called nikki haley. Even though they were trying to get to her over the media. I think it lands them in the right place of, voters know they have a binary even though rfk is in there, hes more of a Trump Problem than a biden problem. They were raising 70 million and not doing anything meaningful with it. Im shocked to hear that. Thats a lot of money. But, lets talk about for a minute, roy, just a minute. Saying hes going to pull from trump, whats your take . There are people out there who might not realize who he is or what hes saying or what he represents, but they just feel like im tired of politics, im exhausted by this whole thing, heres a new face. I think theres going to be some liberal voters who just choose rfk just on, call it voting roulette. If you will. For lack of a better option. Whats the guy, literally anybody . Its either rfk or literally anybody else. I dont think that its going to be a bigger issue for biden then trump. I think its definitely a Trump Problem. He talks about is already, you got to be under other side to be accepting the vaccine stuff, the Conspiracy Theory stuff, the january 6th people patriots, [ inaudible ] your Brother Campaigning against you. His argument is, not every family gets along about everything, but im like, just College Roommates and everybody who worked with him. Your family . Thats another level. Nobody is going anywhere, when we come back were talking cowboy carter, beyonces latest album, the reaction, what it says about us, and march madness, the games, the players, and whatever but is talking about. Later, the rise of cancel culture in comedy, what happens when it goes too far, when our nightcap on the 11th hour continue, lets stick around. S a once daily pill.

We talked about what we needed to talk about, ellis talk about what we want to talk about, must with beyonces album, cowboy carter, now officially out for one week. This was supposed to be her Country Music debut. But what we got was so much more. I think what we got in addition to the music was a History Lesson about the roots of blackness in Country Music. And a time where all we love to do is reject the truth about the origins of so many things in this country, and i think thats the conversation that ive been happy, to see happening around the album is the fact that, not only am i going to come into this genre and do something new and inventive, im going to put on my back a lot of black people who are in the genre and were the beachhead, long before i got here. Dolly parton, come on over, lets do a remix. I think thats what made it so enjoyable when she goes on to her. We need to buy stocks in cowboy hats. Whatever company is making cowboy hats, thats the stock. Dont say it too loudly, trump will come out with cowboy hats. Beyonces not going to get 1619 for doing it, the story of the black contribution to Country Music, not even contribution, ken burns did a lot on this in his documentary, is that his First Episode of this documentary was called the rub, it was about the Black And White origins of Country Music, that evolved into a country that didnt want to share origins. They decided that Country Music was the white thing and r b was the black thing. But in fact so many of their roots were the same place, the same type of music for the same type of stories about love and loss. And i thought that was interesting. Conversation died down for the last couple years and is coming back in. Do you think this is a political album . Its in everything. Its beyonce. The more important thing is, as we get used to this, we will understand that when black people have Country Music hits, its not a stretch. Its not going into someone elses world, its going back to your own. There is no novelty. Whats your take, amanda, on the criticism, theres not a lot of it but there is some thats loud, from the far right, which i dont even understand why, but whats your take . Some of it is targeted toward a black woman is amazing at what she does because shes a black woman who is amazing at what she does. Some of it is well thought out. There were some songs that were better than others, but theyre all interesting. So much there. She gives us essentially a History Lesson. Youd describe it as the Great American novel but in music form. It is beautiful. Some of the critiques are super racist and problematic, but i think there are some more interesting conversation happening around the music, because she gives us so much to dive in on. How about the fact that some of her biggest supporters on this album are the collaborators . The original artists . Paul mccartney, dolly parton, dolly parton said three years ago, i think it was to trevor noah, i hope that one day beyonce covers jolene. The fact that miley cyrus was saying, i cant wait to see beyonce and now shes part of this project. I think its a beautiful thing when you watch people who are considered as deep roots in country like dolly parton, being able to say this is absolutely a beautiful take and where the Country Music genre needs to go for there. I think its getting rid of the novelty factor. There are so many brilliant black musicians who have been in this space and who are now talking about the beyonce bump of their streams going up, then being recognized as artists in their own caliber, for being featured in this way. Some people who say that beyonce might have, there are some critics out there saying its too commercial, not enough country, its beyonce. This woman is mainstream and she is huge, thats how shes going to do it. If other people can grow with that. If your album gets nominated, all those people get nominated, what an incredible thing to do. Its going to be at the cmas, if beyonce wins Country Music awards. Now youre going to have purists who act like there arent other commercialized Country Music artists. Its a broad genre, theres a lot of Country Music. As a swifty, when taylor got big in country. You are using beyonce Crossing Genres to try to uplift your narrative that this is some sort of attack on whiteness. And its not. And to act like anybody of only one specific race can do one specific genre, thats wrong. Jolene has been getting attacked for the last 50 years. [ laughing ] its jolenes fault and she deserved to get stomped on acoustically. Sorry. Lets talk about some other extraordinarily powerful women this week. Im talking march madness, is this a Turning Point for women in sports . Traditionally when women dont get paid or they dont get the resources, its always, well, they cant sell out arenas. They dont have the audience, but boom. They do. What do you think in this moment . The fact that people like shack and others are saying that angel reese and Caitlin Clark are the most talented people. Saying he doesnt even know the names of the men playing. Same. I love that. I love that were talking about it as just basketball and not Womens Basketball as much anymore. These are just amazing athletes, and im excited for the fact that there are so many young kids, not just girls but also boys, who are clamoring for Caitlin Clark jersey, who are clamoring to be like angel reese. That is the dream right there for anyone who is little. I had Randy Justine and i was in. The fact that kids are going to have all of these different women to look up to in sports, from sue bird, megan ruffino, these amazing women, i love this. This is amazing, im thrilled. And i hate basketball. [ laughing ] how does the wnba keep this mojo going . How do they take this excitement, and bring this excitement to arenas for professionals . Thats easy. When Caitlin Clark goes presumably number one, to the indiana fever, whoever had the first pick, you start putting those tea games on tv, you make sure that you have women that are the face of the league and you put faces to these teams. They started that process. It continues because now caitlin gives you the hot rookie to follow into the pros. The issue with the mens game is that so many players are one and done, and il has you playing hopscotch from school to school so you dont have a relationship. The fact that this was a revenge game, theres no mens basketball game where you can say last year, he did this and this year, its turned. That dude got drafted, hes gone. Thats the interesting point. Is that good or bad . Its good for the momentum we have right now, but ultimately, is not that a weird answer that this works because women dont, dont get drafted. Weve seen their story for the last four years, do you think thats whats so special about this group of women . We know their stories, we followed them, we love and hate them. Angel reese announced she was entering the draft with a beautiful photo shoot in vogue. Amazing. Amazing. Youre going to see her and Caitlin Clark and her at a moment where they can capitalize on this story. Last year the Liberty Games in brooklyn are some of the most fun places you could see sports. Were going to see more of that next year. Womens sports is going to break 1 billion in revenue for the first time, its just the beginning. And the olympics, we got simone biles coming back, its going to be a good summer. I want to talk about a different kind of storm, i guess you could say. Late this morning there was a 4. 8 magnitude earthquake that struck the northeast. It was felt from philadelphia to boston, especially in new york, it got a lot of reactions, including this one from the empire state building. Which wrote, i am fine. We have yet to hear from the statue of liberty. We hope and pray she is well, its one of the reasons im happy, youre a survivor, you are one of the first to post on social media today. Id like to know, around the table, where were you when the great quake of 2024 hit new york . I was on the toilet. So you didnt know that it had. I knew, its a very sensitive toilet. But i lived in l. A. For eight years. Everybody in los angeles is laughing at us, and i think that new yorkers need to understand at some point, you cant just make everything, oh, my god, because you lose the new york grit. The point is we can survive anything. Shake off 4. 8, why are you on twitter crying . Did you shake it off . I didnt even feel it to shake it off. We are too low to the ground. We dont feel anything because it doesnt move. Im sitting in the Morning Offices and i knew it happened because theres tvs everywhere and i was like, theres an earthquake, here in new jersey. You and i are too short. I was shaving, and i saw the mirror shake in front of me, its always a full deal. And, my first thought, because im a man of a certain age is, laundry, i thought the towels. You can do them both. Scrubbing. And, when you put the towels in, but, i have a front loading machine, so it couldnt have. I thought i put it into the dryer. I did everything except think it was an earthquake. Than i thought, is somebody running into my house . Truck, subway, laundry, it didnt feel like an earthquake. Did immediately walk onto twitter to see what was eric adams going to respond with. I havent. All the proposed responses were fantastic. Going to send the cops to the core of the earth because people arent paying their fares on the subway. It was some good stuff. The good news is everyone has survived, and everyone is staying right here to tell us their mvps of the week. Before that, punished, silenced, disappeared, the rise of cancel culture and what happens when it goes too far. Comedian and nightcap regular ways in when the 11th Hour Nightcap continues.

When people talk about canceling and cancel culture, i dont hear a cleared understood or shared meeting. Thats part of the problem. What is cancel culture . We all hear about it all the time, but as you just heard first from some theoretical experts, what it really comes down to it, its hard to define. But do not worry, msnbc is exploring the social phenomenon in a new phenomenal documentary. Canceled, the story of cancel culture. Premieres this sunday at 9 00 p. M. Eastern on msnbc, my dear friend judy gold joins me now, she is featured in canceled and is a comedian, actor, and author of yes, i can say that, when they come for the comedians we are all in trouble. Judy, im so glad you got involved in this project, because you and i have talked about this many times. Where do you come out on it, how do you define cancel culture . I believe in free speech, all speech, i think, that you should be able to say. We live in the United States of america, we should be able to say whatever we want, and youll have to suffer the consequences of what you say. And thats just the way it is, because you cannot, who decides what speech is appropriate . But what does that mean . You have to suffer the consequences of what you say, because cancel culture has often meant, we dont like what you said, we dont like what you did, youre banished forever. People dont just get called out, they get removed. Which is beyond ridiculous. If we took it, just in comedy, think about it. When someone is on trial for murder, their sentence is determined by their intent. What were they thinking, do they really want to commit this murder . When you tell a joke, you have an intent. This is what im trying to say. But someone could take it the wrong way, and then decide you should never be able to tell that joke again. In this country, we have gotten rid of nuance, weve gotten rid of context, especially on social media, and intent. And its really, really dangerous. How complicated is it when you put it through the prism of comedy . Some people say people are being too sensitive, and the nature of comedy is to push boundaries. Exactly. And all the time, we talk about shows, movies, programs that weve loved over the years, things that, as basic and as pg as programs like the office, and you couldnt make that today. But you couldnt. You couldnt make all in the family, you couldnt make mod. Some of the most iconic american shows. That changed. That changed the conversation. The fact that were not having the conversations, theres less discourse, its not facilitating any kind of evolution. You look at, all right, i know. Youre going to get mad, but, some people. Look at the republicans. I love doing that. Okay. They are against cancel culture. Thats all they talk about. And yet, theyre banning books, theyre banning, how hypocritical is that . Your banning books, youre telling people what they can talk about in their classrooms. A teacher cant say my husband, my wife, if theyre. What is this . Its mindboggling. But at the same time, celebrities or ceos or people who have gotten canceled, the far right has now made them heroes and celebrities. Right, but have they really gotten canceled . Thats the thing. Who has really gotten canceled . Is there anyone that has been canceled that you think we should bring back . No. Well, i dont think, but isnt that the issue . That theres people we dont like, and cancel them, but i dont believe that. I believe let them continue on, and theyll get, theyll suffer the consequences. Suffer the consequences, but theyre not funny, the audience will show up. These people all have fans, theres different styles of comedy. You have to realize, stand up comedy, this is the interesting thing. George carlin said i like to find out where the line is, cross it deliberately, and then make the audience glad that i did. But most comedians do not know where the line is, until they are in front of the audience trying out their material. It is the only art form where the audience is part, a significant part of the creative process. So, were trying to find the line. Were taking a risk were talking about something, and if the audience is saying, but we dont know that until we get in front of the audience. George carlin is the perfect example. Is material from 20, 25 years ago that seemed crazy at the time has played out word for word. Right. And its so relevant today. Go on social media. Thats the other problem. We have the social media where people have a soapbox that dont deserve a soapbox, things are taken out of context, and it was like, your uncle who said the crazy stuff and used to be, just go in the basement. Now that person goes in the basement, gets online and finds 10,000 people who agree with them. Do you feel like you cant fully voice your opinion because people have put you in a category, and you can say x or you can say y and thats limiting the discourse that we should have . I am at an age where i dont care anymore. Hold on, was there ever an age when you did . Thats true. Ive been a fan for a long time, was there ever an age when you cared . I think comedians are Truth Tellers and brutally honest. And if youre going to talk about a supers are subversive talk it, then make a great joke. Make sure the joke is funny. Dont be lazy.

Nightcap is here, it is time for my favorite part of the program peered the mvps of the week, the person doesnt have to have the best week, but they certainly need to have a big one. Who do you pick . Im picking the princes of januvia, Anne Hathaway. When she said the princes of januvia, i knew that was committed any of you know . Thank you very much. Im sorry for it. Julie andrews, Anne Hathaway. You need to be wanting in prep for your show tomorrow. 100 . Anne hathaway. I feel like this woman is just in her era of being herself, knowing herself, we love someone who can go and do an amazing cover where she looks almost villain asked, vogue, and know that she knows herself, she knows that shes not a villain and she will Self Advocate and dance at parties and have fun and look fabulous doing it. Im in my Anne Hathaway era, i love her and forever are a queen. Shes not just on the cover of vogue because shes a beautiful, brilliant actress. Shes there to know herself and speak to the fact that she can Self Advocate and not be a bad person who is villain eyes for that, in hollywood as weve seen so many times. They are not the same thing. Roy . My mvp of the week is angel rees, from Louisiana State university. They had a good week, not the best week because they lost to Caitlin Clark, but shes going to go to the nba draft and more importantly, the issues with regard to Online Harassment of angel, not only that but her teammates coming out and defending her, and helping to start a conversation about the specificity of difference, the idea of, youre going to hate on the athlete because they lost, fine. When you start getting into higher levels of harassment, i wont even get to, the fact that she was able to handle that with poise and set an example for so many other young women, that level of character is going to carry over to the next level, the fact that it showed us that there are so many people willing to speak out and defend that young woman. Do you think people should be apologetic or ashamed . Do you think those women speaking this week, in any way, caused an industry, journalists, at large, to say how have we covered this young woman . What have we said . Theres a difference between your lost and you are sad versus, im sad because i know that you are going to harass me, and it is frustrating and it is driving me up the wall and it is starting to break me. That part of the game cannot be allowed. For a 21yearold woman. For any woman, especially for one thats just young. The pressure in the public eye. Amanda . The organization i run has a bunch of candidates up in elections this week. 27yearold Carrie Libeled was a Brain Cancer Survivor and Community Activist who is running for the cross county board in wisconsin. She ran and beat, in a landslide, this guy, who was a former county republican chair, one of the fake trump electors, Election Denier who refused to admit that biden won the election fairly in 2020 until a lawsuit forced him to. She was able to kick him out of power. Little win, big win for democracy. I love that. Beautiful. The bar is high. Im going to draft off of amanda, a place called enid in oklahoma. A town called enid. My mvp is connie vickers. Something called The Enid Social Justice committee, which figured out that a guy on their city council who had been there since 2013 had been part of the charlottesville rally. He was a participant. Sort of astride these guys. So, enid and folks started a petition to get rid of this guy. They had a recall in the election, this week, it was on tuesday night, and they won. And his guy, met named judge blevins, is no longer a member of the city council in eden, oklahoma. Small matter, nobody knew who he was in the first place, but this is how you change things. This group of people, connie vickers, changed things in their city, and made people realize we dont want to be associated with this. If that were to happen in the stuff that you do happens in little places across america, thats how we save democracy. That is extraordinary. My mvp is someone i have always looked up to. Im guessing everyone at this table does, especially this week, after absolute tragedy. Jose andres, his World Central Kitchen lost seven aid workers in gaza after an israeli air strike. One of them was a man named damien sobel. My other mvp. Damien worked in the same kitchen i did when i was in poland, when i volunteered with World Central Kitchen a few years ago. It is always a tragedy for a loss of life. It is so important to understand the kind of work that this man, damien, and others continue to do, they are running to some of the most dangerous places in the world to provide aid, food, and relief to people in the most desperate and tragic situations. The people who lost their lives are simply the best of humanity. So, to damien, to those with him, to jose andres and the entire World Central Kitchen family, my deepest gratitude and condolences. This is a truly tragic story, and weve got to get better. I did not mean to end the nightcap like that, roy, can you tell us a joke . Thats sincerity. I am sorry. Allie, amanda, roy, again, the problems you must face on the internet. I was seeing, i assume you receive all my love. I do a lot. Its amazing. There you go, thank you all so much, and thank you all for watching. On that note, i wish you a safe and great night, you can watch the nightcap fridays and most saturdays 11 00 p. M.

Not a good spot. Off the Comcast Business van. Into the vending area. Oh, not the fries wheres the ball . Anybody see it . Oh wait, there it is back into play and. Aw no, its in the water. Wait a minute. Alligator. Are you kidding me . You got to be kidding me. Rolling towards the cup, and its in the hole what an impossible shot brought to you by Comcast Business. Her uncles unhappy. Im sensing an underlying issue. Its tmobile. It started when we tried to get him under a new plan. But they they unexpectedly unraveled their price lock guarantee. Which has made him, a bit. Unruly. You called yourself the uncarrier. You sing about price lock on those commercials. the price lock, the price lock. so, if you could change the price, change the name its not a lock, i know a lock. So how can we undo the damage . We could all unsubscribe and switch to xfinity. Their connection is unreal. And we could all unexperience this whole session. Okay, thats uncalled for. Okay.
