Jon Stewart

Hey, everybody.

Welcome to the weekly show.

My name is Jon Stewart, and it is our weekly get-together.

Today is May 5th.

May the 5th be with you.

Yeah, that's probably not going to work.

Tomorrow will be the day that this comes out.

So when is that going to be?

May 6th.

Who knows where we're going to be?

We're coming apart at the seams, ladies and gentlemen.

We're apparently involved in a ceasefire that involves bombing other countries and them attacking our boats.

Nothing has any meaning anymore.

It's slowly unraveling and slipping away from us to the point where

a literal king has to show up in our Congress and go, what the fuck is the matter with you people?

Obviously, that is not the tone of voice that he took because he's a king.

I believe what he said was, what the fuck is the matter with you?

Something along those lines.

But he had to remind them, remember, your whole thing was to defeat us so that you could have freedom and function through the consent of the governed, and we're slowly unraveling that.

And the guardrails that are put in place are nowhere to be found, including the Fourth Estate.
