Trump Spins Dinner Shooting for Ballroom Agenda & Blitzer Is CNN's One-Shoed Hero Jodi Kantor

Jon Stewart dives into the chaos at the White House Correspondents' Dinner: After a shooter interrupted mentalist Oz Pearlman revealing Karoline Leavitt’s baby name, cabinet members abandoned their wives to rush to safety, Wolf Blitzer reported on the scene without a shoe, and Trump insisted none of this would’ve happened in his larger, more secure, East Wing ballroom. Plus, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog recounts his traumatic night of dodging bullets while trying to avoid having his carcass eaten by RFK Jr. Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Jodi Kantor sits down with Jon to discuss The New York Times’ Supreme Court coverage and her latest book, “How to Start: Discovering Your Life’s Work.” They talk about getting a behind-the-scenes look at the Supreme Court’s internal documents and private correspondence that detail the expansion of shadow docket cases, how the partisan results of rulings benefit President Trump more than previous Democratic presidents, and Kantor advises young graduates on approaching their life’s work in a positive, productive way in “How to Start." -- Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+: The Daily Show airs weeknights at 11/10c on Comedy Central.
