Journalist and author who covers the billionaires who rule the world anand giridharadas. cheers and applause also on tonights show, College Athletes are about to be rich, a democratic candidate murdered a duck, and donald trump is getting impeached. cheers and applause trevor yeah whoo thats right give it up for president mike pence all right, lets catch up on todays headlines. Lets kick it off with one of the greatest viral videos in a long time. Some pretty incredible video from chicagos ohare airport. A catering truck packed with beverages spinning out of control on the tarmac. You can see a lot of airport workers are surrounding it, they dont know how to stop the thing. It went on for a while, but as the truck gets dangerously to hitting the plane, a hero comes forward to saving the day. Thats how you do it. Like that, the chaos is over, turns out a case of water fell on the gas pedal, thats what caused the truck to keep spinning and spinning. Trevor holy shit. That is the craziest thing i have ever seen at an airport. I mean the second craziest thing. The first is the price of a muffin. 12. The thing better have wifi inside of it. But that is insane the thing is just spinning around. Probably knowing airports, they didnt tell people on the plane wheafs going on. The pilot was, like, we have a slight delay with the beverages, it will take a few more moments. They just probably picked the things up off the the ground, put them back on the plane. Someone was just sitting there. What was that out there . Ill enjoy my complimentary diet pepsi now spraying sounds laughter trevor every time i watch the video, i see something new that makes me laugh. You dont see someones already been attacked by the cart. laughter then the dude runs in like a hero and then he ducks it once, all right, and then and then the cart almost hits him. Now its personal. Now hes, like, okay, im coming for the cart. Grabs the red thing. I dont know how he knew this would work, and hes like, bam and he makes sure its dead. This is the best part. Make sure its dead. Thats a hero. cheers and applause thats a hero right there. That was amazing. He just took that cart out like the cart was trump and the red thing was the impeachment inquiry. Boom applause or the red thing was trump and the cart the deep state. I dont want to alienate our pro trump viewer. Hey, gary. Seriously, ive never seen that red thing at an airport before. I dont know if you guys have. Like maybe its only there to smash out of control beverage carts. In the past 30 years, theres been one guy that the f. A. A. That says we need these at every plane. And today hes like what did i tell you . applause a major story from the world of sports. Californias governor signing a first in the nation law that would allow College Athletes to get paid to play. Californiaas governor says College Athletes can get paid to play, a new law to get prospects to attend colleges. The fair pay to play act signed by gavin newsom will allow college a athletes in 2023 to earn compensation for use of their name, image and likeness. Out of high school, star players could sign with agents and cash in on endorsements. Trevor its official, College Athletes in california can now get paid. Yeah. applause and this is really great news because now they can afford to pay other kids to take their tests for them. This is really good. laughter seriously, though, i support this completely, right, because i dont think its ever been fair that the ncaa makes so much money from these athletes but doesnt let them make money from their own work. This would be like kids running a Lemonade Stand and the parents take the cash. The kid is, like, i made 4. The parent is, like, no, i made 4, youre an amateur who does this for the love of the game. Thats right. laughter the ncaa says theyre planning to challenge the ruling in court. To make things fair, i think they should have to use unpaid student lawyers to see how that works out for them. Just see how it goes. applause all right, finally in democratic primary news, a lot of people havent been paying attention to Amy Klobuchar in this race. I think other politicians might want to because she is really dangerous. Amy klobuchar making a bit of an awkward statement in an event in detroit over the weekend. I did one time try play golf, but i misfired on the first try and the ball hit a duck in the head and, yeah, it appeared to perish. laughter trevor goddam. I know most politicians have skeletons in their closets but i didnt think there would be actual duck skeletons in this closet. I like how she was telling it like a lighthearted story, ha ha, one time i killed this duck then she realizes half the audience isnt on board with duck murder. And says, yeah, this one time i hit a duck and smashed a skull and now its upstate on a farm with your goldfish at middle school. laughter on the campaign trail, you talk every day, and eventually this will turn into a weird therapy session. Every candidate will end up revealing too much. Speaking of tariffs, one time i hit someone with my car late at night. Not sure if they made it or not. What was the question . Do you know what the saddest thing is . Theres no good way to warn a duck the ball was coming. You would be, like, duck the duck is, like, actually my name is henry. laughter lets move on to the top story. cheers and applause president trumps ukraine scandal. Like a rash you get from a hot tub, it is growing bigger every day. laughter its also put a spotlight on ukraine because now we want to know everyone who visits the country and what they talk about, which is probably why this made the news. In perhaps a surprising move a Hollywood Alister meeting with the president of ukraine, tom cruise visited the country to scout potential movie locations to shoot for a movie. The president was a successful movie actor before he ventured into politics. You good looking trevor you good looking he says it like hes met other actors. No, yeah, but you, good, good. laughter even tom cruise is in ukraine . This thing goes deep. Because i think i know how this happened. Trump was probably, like, as americas top spy, im going to send you on an impossible mission. laughter to get dirt on joe biden, i need you, tom. I need you. Tom cruise is probably, like, sir, im not actually a spy. Hes, like, all right, youre not a spy. laughter perfect. But while tom cruise might be the biggest news in ukraine, on this side of the scandal, theres a different man in the spotlight right now. The house impeachment inquiry is focusing on president trumps personal point man Rudy Giuliani. The president s attorney now facing a legal battle of his own tonight as three house committees subpoena Rudy Giuliani looking for documents about his interactions with ukraine and would you testify because i think ja jay sekulow is absoluty right you dont have to do anything. Weighing the alternatives, ill kind of go through it. Ill get all my evidence together. Ill get my charts. I dont know if they let me use videotapes and tape recordings that i have trevor yeah, Rudy Giuliani says hell only testify if hes allowed to bring recordings and, like, equipment. Some people think hes being defiant. I get it. Do you know how long and boring the congressional hearings are . If i have to sit one of those things, i also want to bring my ipad, gasping game of thrones and three flea bag as well. Thats the compromise. Trump isnt the only one in hot water. It also may take town Rudy Giuliani. The question is has giuliani done enough to also be impeached . Well, lets get to it in the daily shows story lets find out. Time to put your gavel in your mouth. This is the courtroom or judgemental. cheers and applause trevor all rise ha i didnt say simon says. Welcome to the impeachment trial of Rudy Giuliani, personal attorney to the president and courageous rabies survivor. laughter giuliani is accused of a number of high crimes that have thrust this nation into turmoil. Lets begin the trial. First the president s lawyer is accused of being the rig leader of this entire circus lets see the evidence. The whistleblower singles out Rudy Giuliani as a central figure in the scandal. The president s personal lawyer is mentioned 30 times in the complaint which sites meetings he had with at least seven ukrainian officials. U. S. Officials were deeply concerned about circumvision of National Security Decision Making and efforts to relay messages between the white house and ukraine. Trevor yes, it appears Rudy Giuliani was the anus of this entire operation laughter everything passed through him and it stinks to high heaven applause order for gods sake, he was mentioned 30 times in the whistleblowers report. Thats 29 times too many. You knee youre in trouble if the screen lights up like it has a blacklight. Thats not enough. I would need to see if hes made things worse for his client by saying constantly far too much on tv. Roll the evidence giuliani has admitted to pressuring ukraine to open an investigation into former viebt joe biden and his son hunter. Giuliani publicly announced he planned to travel to ukraine to push for investigations that he tooled the New York Times would be very, very helpful to my client. At the time giuliani said were not medaling in an election, were medaling in an investigation. Then saying, quote, theres nothing illegal about it. Some would say its improper. Did you ask ukraine to investigate joe biden. No. Never asked anything about hunter biden or joe biden . Only how lutsenko who was appointed so you asked ukraine to look into joe biden. Of course i did. You just said you didnt trevor yes it appears giuliani was outsmarted by chris cuomo, which in and of itself is a crime and even worse, this socalled mastermind confessed on national television. Never in my four minute career as a judge have i seen anything like this the more giuliani speaks, the more he implicates donald trump. Hes like the conservative takashi 6. 9, that snitching ass bitch. applause so the defendant has made multiple confessions and honestly this thing is going a lot easier than i expected. I wish all the cases before me went like this. So lets move on to our third charge which may be the most damning of all. Rudy giuliani stands accused of being one crazy assed mother ~bleep . Evidence, please and the reason they want me to be silenced is not because im unhinged, its because ive got facts. Whats this guy romney like . Hes our al gore. I told the president of the ukraine that were going to fight corruption shut up. Let me finish, chris. A lot of other stuff is out there. A lot of criminals are not all that sorry a lot of alleged criminals are not all that smart. Do you think im stupid . Do you think ive given you all my evidence . The only president that counts in an alleged extortion is the victim. Were out of time. It doesnt matter if schiff sorry to cut you off. Youve got to get your voice back. Trevor order, order clearly this man is out of control. It says a lot when you are the most unhinged person on fox news. Thats like being the smelliest person at a burning man, very hard to pull off, and, so, i think ive seen all i need to render my verdict. On the charges of interfering in foreign affairs, acting as the president s personal thug and just being an overall hot mess in breech breach of the hot mess act of 1394 this court finds you william dracula giuliani guilty your punishment will be 200 years of Community Service where you will be frightening children at one of those Spooky Halloween houses. Court is adjourned well be right back cheers and applause she wanted a roommate to help with the cooking. But she wanted someone who loves cats. So, we got griswalda. Dinners almost ready. But one thing we could both agree on was getting geico to help with our renters insurance. Yeah, switching and saving was really easy drink it all up. Good could have used a little salt. Visit geico. Com and see how easy saving on renters insurance can be. Send em a toaster whaand get to bdubs schedules their wedding on game day . Where the dress code is stainedshirt optional and you dont have to bring us a gift, we already have a gazillion tvs buffalo wild wings. Rooooaaaarr cheers and applause trevor welcome back to the daily show. President trump is facing impeachment because of the call with ukraine. Trump is the one who released the transcript of the call where we clearly see him asking selenski for thslen zelensky for the favor. A lot of white house aides didnt want the transcript to be released. They worried it would bpt as good for him as expected. You had a real internal debate. You had secretaries mnuchin and pompeo arguing against it privately and also publicly. Thehe believed releasing the transcript would be common rate him. The conversation, by the way, was absolutely perfect. It was a beautiful, warm, nice conversation. Trevor you know, i can safely say ive never heard someone talk about a phone conversation that way. Absolutely perfect, beautiful and warm laughter like i actually feel bad for every other call has to make from now on. It will never live up to that standard. He will be on the phone with like the leader of spain and he will be, like, well, donald, i want to thank you for the time. I think we can all agree this was a great call. Hes, like, actually, it was just okay because you should have heard my call with ukraine, so perfect, so beautiful, it was like the ivanka of calls. laughter applause this call, on the other hand, is more like an eric, totally an eric call. Its mine, but im not a big fan. So for more on the decision to release the call, lets talk to a man who makes elicit phone calls all the time, michael kosta, everybody cheers and applause welcome, michael. This call, michael, seems to be the thing that could get donald trump impeached. Yeah, trevor, trump is in trouble, which insbetter than anyone. I was once impeached out of a dennys at 3 00 a. M. laughter trevor so you were kicked out of a dennys . Yes, but impeached sounds classier laughter trevor clearly trumps aides tend want the transcript to be released. So why tid the president think this was such a perfect call . How did he not see what men want he did was how did he not see that what he did was wrong . Its simple, because trump didnt see he did anything wrong. To do wrong you have to know whats right, in the same way without darkness can you really have light, without the weak is there might, without a gym could there be a dwight. cheers and applause trevor please dont dont encourage him. Kosta, everyone agrees that the United States president asking a foreign leader to dig up dirt on his political rival is wrong. But trump doesnt know right from wrong so technically he cant do anything wrong. Cant blame a blind man for driving on the wrong side of the road so you cant blame a morally blind man for committing crimes. Trevor i certainly wouldnt let a blind man drive. Wow racist. laughter it doesnt matter because america voted to let this morally blind man drive the presidency, and now we have no choice but to sit in the back seat and pray he doesnt crash into too many old ladies. Trevor michael, no, it is totally different. Blindness isnt a character trait, its physical. So is moral blindness. Its genetic to the trump family. Robert mueller let don, jr. Off the hook for colluding with russia because he didnt know colluding with russia was a crime. He walked away a free man and locked himself in his car. Trevor youre saying trump shouldnt be punished because he doesnt know any better . Thats ridiculous. No, its inspiring. If ignorance is the ultimate completely defense, we should strive to be as ignorant as possible. Thats why for the past week i have been unlearning how to read. That way i cant get in trouble for not paying my bills or ignoring divorce papers or disregarding restraining orders from dennys. Trevor i feel like unlearning to read seems like a lot of work. No way. Its as simple as agv. Trevor michael kosta, everyone. Well be right back cheers and applause nothing gets a familys full attention like my freshly prepared chicken. The delicious kfc 20 fill up. With eight pieces of extra Crispy Chicken and sides, well surely get your kids off their phones. And they may even look at you. Their loving parent. Kfc, its Finger Lickin good. Halloween is awesome. [trick or treat] yes, yes, yes, yes. [screaming in fear] yay. [laughter] yes thank you. vo the subaru crosstrek. Dog tested. Dog approved. Subaru establishes National Make a dogs day. Helping hardtoadopt dogs find homes. Awwww yeah. Thats the stuff. No really. Those are the actual ingredients. Funky rock track tostitos. [crunch] get to the good stuff. cheers and applause trevor welcome back to the daily show. My guest tonight is an editoratlarge at time and author whose critically acclaimed book winners take all the elite charade of changing the world is now available in paperback. Please welcome anind giridharadas cheers and applause welcome to the daily show. Thank you. Trevor congratulations on a book that has made you the enemy of billionaires all over the world. Right. Trevor you are a foolish man. Right. Trevor why would you write a book that basically accuses billionaires of being, like, fake good people as philanthropists . What does that even mean . The question is why is it that this era of extraordinary elite generosity which is real happens to coincide with an age of extraordinary elite hoarding . The very same class of billionaires and plutocrats who do so much to give and constantly talk about how much they give have a monopoly on the future in this country . The 1 in this country takes 49 of new income. Trevor yeah. Half the new income. Trevor right. The bottom half of people in this country on average has not gotten a raise, as many of you may know, in 40 years. Trevor right. So the question then becomes whats the relationship between all this nice stuff elites do and the elite predation. And the relationship i discovered when i reported this book its these sprinkling of nice deeds that help us uphold the system in which rich people can monopolize the future, hoard progress and kill the American Dream and, not satisfied with that, theyre trying to kill the planet now, too. Trevor lets go back. Youre saying the people hoard the money, but everyone here tries to keep the money they make. Thats a logical thing humans do. You get the money, you keep the money, nobody gets the money from working and gives it away. But people get the money and say thats the American Dream, you work hard and make your money. Why is that a problem or why do you think thats a paradox with the public giving theyre doing. When rich people start to make money by underpaying them systemically, make money by frankly avoiding taxation in any way they can, hiding money, make money by employing people insecurely, youre a contractor, you do all that, time for the advocate for all of us, the government, to actually fight on our behalf. Trevor heres the thing, there are many billionaires, right. You say the elate charade of changing the world, but many billionaires have come out publicly and said, hey, we should be paying more taxes as billionaires. We want to be taxed hiring. Warren buffett has said, guys, my personal assistant pays a higher tax rate than i do, which is not fair. So if the billionaires are saying we should be paying more tax, why would you say its a charade or theyre part of the problem . Those billionaires are saying the right thing. Now, what is interesting, some of the people you mentioned, if you double click on some of what they actually do in their life, what they do is they say we should pay hiring income tax. They call their accountant middle east when off the cnbc air and say, hey, bob, make sure i only have wealth accumulations this year, capital gains, no income increase. When youre riching you can shuffle things around. The people up above are there because they step on people down below and the people down below are there because theyre being stepped on and you cannot say i want to help p team down below in a way that will change nothing for people standing on their neck. Real change involves the loss of power and at the heart of this book is an idea that there has been an ideology of the last 40 years that has been winwin. We can empower people, help people in africa and app la cha and no one suffers, the rich people dont have to pay taxes or be regulated, and it is a lie. The only change worth doing in a moment like this with such inequity is a change that will necessarily make the plutocrats less powerful. The answer in a winners take all world is almost lodge schi a world in which the winners take less and theyre not going to sign up for that. Its us acting together, joining things, getting involved in a democracy that will take change back from the charade. Trevor its a powerful statement. Did i convince you yet . Trevor that is a powerful, powerful statement, and i think youre right, but i will keep my billionaire friends. Thank you so much for being on the show. Thank you. Trevor winners take all, truly a fascinating book that exposes the world we live in today. Its available now. Anind giridharadas, everybody. Well be right back cheers and applause i am for truth. No matter who tells it. And for justice, no matter who its for, or against. I miss being here. I miss my partners. Who here will speak up for me . Anybody . No . Wow cmom and say it now. Just let the words come out. Give me your love. No calories. No sweeteners. All smiles™. Bubly sparkling water. Crack a smile™. cheers and applause trevor thats our show for tonight. Lights out with david spade is coming up next. But first, here it is. Your moment of zen. Its one of those days when there is this electricity in the air. Sometimes there is so much. Beauty in the world its like i cant take it. R. Kelly is explain he isnt able to see more than one girlfriend at a time in prison. He is also going to be sorely disappointed that that girl has to be over 18. Haha, what a bummer. Rules are rules, guy. We cant change it for one dude, im sorry, man. [applause and cheering] announcer amazing. David whatever. [applause and cheering] youre still
