So lets catch up on todays headlines. Lets kick it off with some international news. Coming out of finland, the country usually known for lakes, snow and not being norway. But, now, theyve got a pretty cool claim to fame. Britains guardian says a 34yearold sauna marine of finland will become the worlds youngest sitting prime minister. Yesterday finlands Ruling Social Democratic Party voted to name marine next prime minister. Shes been a lawmaker since 2015. Trevor yes, finland now has the youngest leader in the world. A 34yearold woman named sanamarie. You know whats more impressive. Look at the other leaders of finlands coalition government. Five women cheers and applause but im starting to think finland is secretly the island from wonder woman. You realize thats an entire government mike pence cant be in a room with, right . Even more impressive is that four of them are under age 35, which is wild, because, in america, you cant even be president until you turn 35. And if youre in the government, you can keep running until youre 1,000. I dont understand why theres no oldage limit. Think about it, you have congressmen who cant stay awake. You have a senator who took off glasses he wasnt even wearing. laughter like, we dont even know how old Mitch Mcconnell is, youd have to count the flaps of his neck like the rings of a tree. We dont even know. laughter you know what would be funny is if the group of leaders from finland met with u. S. Leaders, its going to look like theyre visiting their parents in an old age home. We want to talk to you about trade. And its, like, and we want to talk to you about fixing our vcr. Dont put us in one of those tik tokes. That happened to gladys and shes now viral laughter if you felt guilty from taking from a hotel room, dont stress. Turns out, theyve seen a lot worse. Stealing towels is one thing but mattresses is a whole different level. A survey reveals Luxury Hotels are dealing in mattresses missing. The quality of hotel determines the variety of items stolen, higher the rating the bigger the heist. Five star hotels are likely to have mattresses, tvs and coffee machines, while less nicer are likely to lose remotes, and nicer hotels are less likely to report due to fear of being connected to a crime. Trevor who steals a mattress . More importantly, how do you steal a mattress from a hotel . What, do you disguise its and walk up to the front desk, like, hi, my wife and i would like to check out. Honey, why dont you go wait in the car . laughter also, why would you want to steal a mattress from a hotel . Its the filthiest thing in the room. Its, like, its not that i cant afford the mattress, i just prefer one with the builtin semen stains. Have you heard the good news about jesus . Yeah. Now, have you heard the bad news about jesus . This might actually be the holy grail of new video games. Its called i am jesus christ and it lets gamers play jesus. To heal a blind man, make fish appear in a bucket and end a thunderstorm. The new testament inspired game has not been released yet but it is expected to launch soon. audience reacts trevor okay, this is extremely offensive, especially for me, someone who has already accepted supermario as my video game savior. And i say unto you, itsamany ill be honest, i dont want to play a video game about jesus. However, i do want to play as jesus in other video games. Think about it, when jesus was alive, he rolled with sinners and prostitutes so hed kick ass and grant their wishes. Or jesus as a quarterback. Whats the play, jesus . Hail mary, same as every play applause or or cheers and applause or i would want to play jesus in mortal combat, ripping out dudes spines and middl and immy healing him. Resurrect him we know the cheat code will be up down, up down, left right, ab star. Thats it for the headlines. Lets move on to the top stories. Impeachment. Today was another major milestone in the push to impeach president trump. So lets catch up on the latest in our ongoing segment the magical wonderful road to impeachment. cheers and applause singing thats probably president ial harassment. Trevor for months, now, democrats have been inching closer to bringing articles of impeachment against president trump, and, today, they finally made it official. This is cnn braking news. The house announcing articles of impeachment against sitting president donald j. Trump. A president who declares himself above accountability, above the American People and above Congress Power of impeachment which is meant to protect against threats of our Democratic Institutions is a president who sees himself as above the law. We must be clear, no one, not even the president , is above the law. Trevor thats right, the democrats have officially announced articles of impeachment to show that, other than stephen segal, no one is above the law. laughter and i know this sounds weird, but im actually proud of donald trump. Yeah, because hes getting impeached, but i didnt think he would make it three years. Im not going to lie. Like, trump getting this far into his presidency without being impeached is like when a dog accidentally drives a car into a tree. The car crashed but he made it eight blocks. Thats impressive. I dont know how he put it into drive. He barely knows letters. laughter now there was a big debate within the Democratic Party about how many articles of impeachment to bring against donald trump, but, in the end, they decided to strike with surgical precision. President trump now facing two charges as the Top Democrats of the key committees stood together to announce it all this morning. Abuse of power and obstruction of congress. Democrats have decided to narrow the scope of impeachment to the two articles of impeachment that they believe are the easiest to prove and backed up by the most evidence. Because we are operating in a universe where republicans are challenging some of the most basic facts. Democrats want to make this case airs tight as possible. Trevor yes, only two articles of impeachment, abuse of power and obstruction of congress, we means democrats are showing a lot of restraint because trump has done enough crazy shit to merit 2,000 articles of impeachment. Obstruction of justice from mueller report, porn star payoffs, flag molestation, the time he looked directly into an eclipse and having don, jr. Is impeachment on its own. cheers and applause so the good news for trump is that hes only facing two charges, although, in a way, thats also kind of sad for him because nixon had three articles against him, bill clinton had fourenned Andrew Johnson had eleven, which means the trump will have the smallest impeachment of all time. You know thats going to make him insecure. Hes, like, its not about the size of the impeachment, its about the friction of the conviction laughter cheers and applause and these articles of impeachment could not have come at a worst time for trump because remember how the president has been saying that the whole russia investigation was a biased conspiracy against him . Well, he demanded that the Justice Department look into the russia investigation. Guess what they found . Tonight the Inspector Generals report finally out, into the origins of the russia investigation and the report finding no antitrump bias. The Justice Departments Inspector General revealing there was no evidence of a witch hunt, determining the f. B. I. Had enough evidence to justify the probe at the height of the election, but the Inspector General says f. B. I. Officials made serious errors and omissions in applying for surveillance warrants to monitor communications of carter page. Despite trumps mocking of f. B. I. Agents he says were using the russia probe to defeat him, the report found an agent who messaged another after trump won the white house that he was so elated with the election, it was like watching a super bowl comeback. Trevor yeah, not great for donald trump. The report did find misconduct by some f. B. I. Agent but, overall, said that the russia investigation was justified and there was no antitrump bias. So for trump, this is weird, because it was a little bit of what he wanted but a lot of what he definitely didnt want. Like he opened his presents on Christmas Morning and he got the scrment r. Headset he was hoping for but only played videos of his grandparents having sex. Disappointing. Still more fun than the jesus came. Surprisingly, trump has been taking the bad news better than you would expect, but maybe thats not because hes taking it at all. The i. G. Report just came out and i was just briefed on it. It is incredible. Far worse than i would have ever thought possible. This was an overthrow of government, this was an attempted overthrow, and a lot of people were in on it, and they got caught. They got caught red handed. Trevor trump is a legend, man. laughter the report came out, and hes blindly plowing ahead. Like the report stays what says what he wanted it to say. He said, yeah, it is what it said. Its like those people who got dumped and are in defile. Donald, this isnt working. Okay, feel better, see you tomorrow. Trump didnt read the report. His advisors cant get him to read reports. They probably gave him bullet points on a dennys placed mat. Even if he didnt read it, it wouldnt matter. He always creates his own realities no matter the facts. Even if he gets impeached and gets removed from office, theres a good chance he will ignore it and keep being president. Mr. President , the votes are in, you have to leave the white house, its over. He would be, like, all right, love you, too, babe, see you tomorrow well be right back cheers and applause when it comes to health coverage, it helps to have someone in your corner.

When a new story falls through the cracks, lewis black catches it for a segment we call back in black. cheers and applause its just a couple more weeks until christmas, when christians celebrate the birth of santa meanwhile, us jews are celebrating a real miracle some lamp oil that lasted longer than we thought, because if theres one thing we jews love, its a bargain laughter but, for some reason, christians are now trying to include us in their holiday season, and its not making any sense. Hallmark christmas movies have been a staple for the channel for years. Now theyre debuting two hallmark hanukkah movies. As the Washington Post reports, theres just one problem, neither movie is a hanukkah movie, theyre christmas movies with jewish characters. Joe. Brook. In a holiday date a woman hires a jewish actor to pose as her boyfriend and join her at her familys house at christmas but the family grows suspicious because they dont know if he knows how to celebrate. You daunt know if jews know how to celebrate christmas, the holiday that gets jammed down ore throat every year . The second the holiday ends, i cant buy a cup of coffee that doesnt look like it fell out of santas ass. Jews know how christmas works. Its not like were going to walk into your Christmas Party and say, oh, my god its a tree indoors call a lumberjack laughter i dont want a holiday movie where a jewish person learns about christmas. I want a movie where a christian has to learn about hanukkah night one socks. Night two, a notebook. Night three, a pen and pencil set. Its a backtoschool holiday laughter but if you thought a fake hanukkah movie was tone deaf, put this in your stocking and stuff it Online Retail giant amazon just pulled several controversial christmas items from its web site, the items including Christmas Ornaments, bottle openers and mouse pads depict the auschwitz concentration camp. Amazon says all the products in question have been removed, adding all sellers must follow our selling guidelines. Trevor an auschwitz Christmas Ornament . Look, i know we say to never forget, but when youre decorating your tree, you can take the night off laughter this is yeas crazy christmas has nothing to do with the holocaust santas list, and schindlers list are very different lists applause but if you have to think of the jews at christmas, why not get them a Little Something to show you care, like this guy . Last week, we told you about a controversial option of nazi memorabilia in germany and new this morning a swiss businessman purchased many of the items including adolph hitlers top hat, he said, in order tore keep them out of the hands of neonazis. He said he will donate the items to a jewish group. He said he paid more than 600,000 at the munich auction last week. I appreciate the gesture, but who cares if a neonazi gets their hands on hitlers top hat its not like the hat will magically turn them into a super nazi. All you get is a skinhead who looks like mr. Peanut laughter and giving hitlers hat to a jewish group isnt going to do anything. Theyll just take turns shitting in it. Although, come to think outof it, sounds like a pretty good hanukkah to me. We thought hitlers hat could only hold one turd, but it held eight what a mitzvah laughter by the way, are we sure this is real . Weve all seen pictures of hitler and hes never wearing a top hat. Person lill, i think this is a scam to get people to buy fake hitler stuff, and thats the kind of scam i want to get in on. So, hey, neonazis, perhaps i could interest you in hitlers ninja thats right, that wasnt a mustache off adolphs lip, it was res to you from a delicious kale smoothie. Act now and ill throw in mussolinis Fidget Spinner trevor lewis black well be right back, everyone cheers and applause awwww yeah. Thats the stuff. No really. Those are the actual ingredients. Funky rock track tostitos. [crunch] get to the good stuff. We ordered 10,000 units. That sounds good. Pretty cool, huh . Theyre speaking to mom in japanese, and mom hears them in english. Can you understand me . Yes, i can understand you. Okay. I have a lot of questions. How do you guys fly . What does santa do in the summer . Is mrs. Claus a good cook . Do you guys get presents . Can you roller skate or ice skate . Look what we did we made it thin. How is this possible, you ask . Its not. But we gone done it anyway. Reeses thins. Not sorry. Give them the gift thats on everybodys list cash scan your pepsi. Get a match. And gift that money forward, to whoever you want keep the pepsi. Gift the cash. And gift that money forward, to whoever you want fast paced hip hop song playing rougout cheers and applause trevor welcome back to the daily show. My guest tonight are Award Winning actors who star as a prison warden and a death row inmate in the new film clemency. At that point, medical personnel will confirm the execution complete. Now, if you want to talk to miss lameta about this later, you can, but do you have any questions . Do you have any family that would like to claim your body . If there are no family members that wish to claim your body, your remains will be laid to rest in a plot here on our property owned by the state. Trevor please welcome Alfre Woodard and aldis hodge. cheers and applause trevor welcome to the daily show. First of all, congratulations on being part of a film that is being lauded by critics and fans alike as one of the best films that theyve had the opportunity to see. Not everyone has had the chance to see it yet, obviously, but it is a really powerful story. Weve seen stories about prisoners, weve seen stories about wardens, very few tales have touched people in this way because clemency is a story where you play a ward b who has the task of executing people who have been sentenced to death, and in this story, we see an interesting side of it, and that is the emotional toll it takes on the wardens, as well as the prisoners. Thats a powerful different way to tell the story. What attracted you to being a part of this film to tell that story . I had never heard of this dilemma. I didnt know those people. I didnt know the degree of ptsd that is suffered by people that are charged, that we charge with carrying out statesponsored executions. I figured if i didnt know the vast majority of people didnt know and thats the very reason you want to tell a story. Trevor it seems, contrary to what people would want to talk about because many times people go lets talk about the prisoners who are, you know, sentenced to death and some of them wrongly executed, but people would be, like, the execution itself is wrong. Right. Trevor its rare to tell a story where you humanize the warden as well, who is part of a system. Mmhmm. Trevor thats a powerful side of the story to tevment why do you think that was important . Well, because, when it comes to capital punishment, i believe as a society were to a degree pass fide by the idea of murder dinner guise of justice, right . We rarely take into account causality. We rarely take into account the effects of those who have to do this and dignify the people that they are doing it to. Trevor right. As we see through the relationship with bernadine and my character Anthony Woods whos on his way out, possibly hes actively trying to gain clemensy but we see the tumultuous relationship happen between these two people as theyre trying to find dignity and real value in this situation and i think, for us, its great to know that side of things because, as a community, this is something were all actively complicit in, and we need to understand our real responsibility, when it comes to the idea of capital punishment. Trevor when telling the story, how important was it for you to try and humanize and also empathize with somebody that most of society wouldnt feel for, and that is somebody who is, you know, the head of a prison . Well, you know, anything that any human being is capable of, were all capable of, high and low, and, so, as the actor, you dont pass judgment, you dont bring your opinions, the way you talk, the way you move, your job is to get yourself out of the way and find the way that that person looks out on the world. So it is i need to find that womans reality. Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, you know, im going to be an asshole today. laughter no, everybody thinks, you know, i can fix this, i know how to make this run smoothly. Trevor right. And, so, your job is always to find the human being. Trevor when you were playing the warden, i know you get into your characters. I know you inhabit a different world. What was the most surprising thing you discovered about the world of wardens, specifically women who are tasked with being wardens in american prince . I met three wardens and a deputy wardens, they were all sisters, black women. It surprised me firstov all that women would be wardens. I learned they came to it from the Mental Health field, they come to it from social works and its always a revelation, and you live for revelations, to be able to see a side of an issue that you are on the absolute polar opposite of and to be able to understand that person. You may not agree, but everybodys got everybodys got a role to play in life. I mean, thats what a society is. So to be able to understand, you know what, thats the person i want as my commander because theyre not going to blink, theyre not going to breach protocol because one stitch dropped, the whole fabric might fall apart. So to be able to understand a woman that could say, no, you cant go to your mommas funeral, now what do you want to eat in what do you want to eat for your last meal . Trevor wow. To be able to understand that. Trevor its interesting because its always sounds like there are two people who are imprisoned in a strange way. Its not just the prisoner but its also the guard. Yeah. Trevor aile aldis, we see yr character, you see the humanity of the person whos keeping you in prison and its their job. Right. Trevor you spent a lot of time in a prison cell for this. Youre sitting there, and theres moments where its camera, but there are a lot of moments when youre in a real jail cell just sitting there. Yeah. Trevor is there a part of you that goes, this makes me uncomfortable, this experience is a little too real as the idea as coop september . Because a lot of people dont realize what a jail cell actually is. Yeah, and given the past few roles, i have been in jail quite a bit. laughter very familiar. We actually shot in a real jail. There was one time where a cell closed, and the button didnt work to open it up, so your boy was stuck for a little bit. Its cool. They got it open. But, you know, it makes you think differently. No, for me, oddly enough, with my relationship with my craft, i choose to be part of projects im ambitious about when it comes to the potension fortunately their positivity. Trevor right. So, with this, the harder it got for the character, the more excited i got because i knew that the world was going to be able to get a completely different view of perspective of what these real men and women go through on a daily basis. Trevor right. It does hit you, it is polarizing to a degree, but, at the same time, i say im doing my work and to a degree hopefully im working in my purpose, which makes me quite proud to sit in those situations and have to feel it and go through it because thats the art i want to give to people. Trevor i think youve both done an amazing job. Thanks for being on the show and telling the story. Clemency will be in select theatres december 27th. Make sure to watch it. Alfre woodard and aldis hodge, everybody. Well be right back cheers and applause cheers and applause trevor thats our show for tonight. Thank you so much for tuning in. Here it is.
