Impeachment proceedings like a lynching when asked about the criticism, trump said, wow, now i know how jesus felt on the cross. [ laughter ] after President Trump this morning compared impeachment proceedings to a lynching, senator Lindsey Graham defended trump saying, quote, this is a lynching in every sense. And if theres one word Lindsey Graham shouldnt be using its sense. [ laughter ] thats right early this morning President Trump tweeted about congress ongoing impeachment inquiry. He wrote, all republicans must remember what they are witnessing here, a lynching. Now, the complex issue surrounding a white person using the term lynching is not something im comfortable talking about. But i am [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause oh, donald trump, you raggedy bastard. Youre not being lynched you know how i know . Because people who are being lynched dont sit in a mansion tweeting about bull[ bleep ] [ laughter ] look, the reason youre comfortable comparing your situation to a lynching is because you value black people so little that in your mind a black person dying is equal to your slight discomfort well, you know what causes my slight discomfort . Listening to you breathe [ laughter ] its like youre breathing through a hole humans dont have [ laughter ] also, i keep hearing people say, this is a distraction. The president saying racist things isnt a distraction its a real thing that makes real americans feel unsafe this is a distraction. [ laughter ] thank you, jenny youre welcome. Now its no surprise trump is a racist because his dad was a racist his dad was arrested in 1927 near a klan rally now that doesnt prove that he was in the klan. But if you see me near a cinnabon, its not cause i love waiting in line. [ laughter ] and you will see me at a cinnabon [ laughter ] impeachment inquiry is not a lynching dont believe me ask your klanass dad. [ laughter ] you think the impeachment inquiry is an injustice. Its not its the direct consequence of your actions injustice is what the lord did to your face and body.

Seth please welcome back to the show james spader, everybody [ cheers and applause seth hello hello seth its always so wonderful to see you its nice to see you as well. Seth congrats on another season of your show. Thank you you know, its funny, that clip. I realized this episode, the writers have been really great about this on our show and theyve been able to consistentlyo this the seed was planted for this episode in the pilot seven years ago. Seth thats so wonderful when writers can plan ahead. Yeah. The story was [ laughter ] seth it really is. Genuinely, yeah. And i mean a lot of it is often i will admit on our show, there are times where theyll throw a seed out there, not even plant it. And they arent even entirely sure what the seed might turn out to be. But they just know that it would be ftossne out into the field seth yeah. And then retrofit it later for how it will best serve us, you know but thats happened a lot. This, on the other hand, was something that was really a story that was waiting to happen seth im very happy to have you here now because youve been here before around halloween you are a fan of halloween i am. Well, yes. [ light laughter ] seth i know your youngest son is maybe is he maybe outgrowing needing you no, i mean, yes hes not outgrowing halloween at all. But hes certainly outgrowing me seth gotcha. Which is sad. Seth do you like trickortreating . Yeah, no, i love yeah, no, i love halloween ive just been doing it for so long i have a 30yearold and then i have an 11yearold. And i have a 26yearold so ive never not seth did you space them out like this to have more halloweens [ laughter ] for halloween seth yeah, yeah. For halloween seth yeah. I mean its just how it turned out in terms of halloween. Seth but you knew right away you were like, this is great yeah. Seth for halloween reasons. This is going to work out seth yeah. Yes i mean, you know, as soon as the last one started to get a little bit older, i realized we better start working on the replacement for halloween. [ laughter ] seth yeah, yeah, yeah. But anyway, last year, he last year my youngest son, you know, said, dad, i dont really need you to papa, he calls me i dont really need to you go trickortreating with me. I was devastated really. Seth yeah. Had you already bought a costume for yourself well, ive always had a costume around seth the house yeah. Seth yeah. I mean we have a yes, yeah seth yeah. Yeah. No, theres always been dressup corners seth yeah. In the houses seth that makes sense. You have a theater background. There would be but also back to my childhood, halloween was great i grew up on a boarding School Campus my father was an english teacher. So it was a very, sort of, secure environment so we were actually able to go out trickortreating at a much earlier age. You know, we werent really going to a neighborhood. We were going through across a School Campus. You knew everybody you were running into seth a Perfect Place a Perfect Place for trickortreating early. And also it was at a time in the 60s where parents were a little bit more like, where are the kids . Seth yeah. Oh, theyre out trickortreating. I mean they really didnt even know what we were up to. Seth gotcha. I dont think my parents ever really knew seth what you were really up to what i was up to. Seth did you get in trouble . Did you take advantage of the fact that your parents didnt know and get in trouble . Well, i mean, i was so pathetic, actually there was [ light laughter ] i think i had sort of heard with other friends that, you know, that somehow egg throwing was involved seth yeah. In halloween or soaping things up and everything but we didnt really relate to it in any way. I just dont remember really having a real frame of reference for that really what do you do with the egg . What are you going to egg . Seth yeah. Were not going to egg other kids because we know all the kids are our neighbors. And, frankly, were Walking Around with them seth yeah. You know . So who are you going to egg . Seth yeah. So anyway, one i remember the first halloween where we were going to get into trouble seth okay. That was by design. Seth so and that thing where as young kids you sort of decide weeks in advance, were going to cause some trouble. Theres conversation seth yeah. About it, you know. Seth the, sort of, anticipation of the trouble i think as a young kid is more exciting absolutely. Thats the whole of it, really seth yeah. And so there was some discussion of the soaping. We really didnt understand. Seth i still dont understand soaping we didnt understand that but the eggs, i guess. My only i love eating eggs. Seth yeah. And then i knew for the egg the egg toss on the fourth of july seth right we knew about that. Seth were you concerned at any point that you thought egging was preparing eggs for people to eat . [ laughter ] yes seth leave an omelet yes seth then ring the door bell yeah. And then they step in it seth yeah, they step in an omelet anyway, so so anyway, we went out with some eggs seth yeah. It was so pathetic. Seth what did you end up doing . So we go out with some eggs and were taking them with us. I dont even know how we were carrying them. But, you know, clearly, it was a lot of like you know seth yeah. With the eggs [ light laughter ] we took them and we went to the perkins house. I mean mrs. Perkins i had sort of a crush on mrs. Perkins. I thought she was so i mean i dont know maybe the whole egg of it all was probably like, you know, how youd kick the girl you liked, sort of, in the shins seth yeah. At the playground seth you were you were using the egg to flirt yes i dont know [ laughter ] i thought she was great, you know i really seth you were hoping she would wake up and go, oh, eggs [ laughter ] i guess i dont know what. I guess i just wanted attention. Seth yeah. Maybe i wanted to go to like mrs. Perkins jail seth oh, i see or something. You know seth right, yeah i dont know what [ audience oohs anyways, so anyways, so we go to trick or treat seth yeah. At her house or something and we didnt even like throw the egg. We sort of like dropped it im not even sure, to be perfectly honest with you. I mean its a long time ago. Im not even sure if maybe we dropped it by accident seth i see i mean it could have been as pathetic as that seth and then played it off as like we egged her doormat. Seth right [ laughter ] anyway, i know an egg, you know, broke on her doormat or whatever the hell it was well, so then we leave that house. And we head off. And everyone knows the next house. I mean she knows the next house. Its the one thats right up the road seth yeah, yeah, yeah. You know . And, of course, the next house is the mcvays house. And munk is with me, you know. Hes one of my best iends, munk mcvay its his family who were going to next. Well, we show up there and his mother is there at the door, like, mrs. Perkins called [ laughter ] you get back there and clean it up. [ laughter ] it was so depressing as you know, we get there and shes standing there with this [ applause ] beautiful smile on her face. Seth yeah. And a roll of paper towels in her hands, you know. Seth yeah, yeah. I mean it was pretty pathetic seth you guys did not think through this crime at all. No. Seth yeah. Im a terrible criminal seth you were on the oth side of it because i know you there was a crime committed at your house, at this school as well, right . Yes yeah yeah our house i was i dont know i was at home sick one day and i think there was a history test or something. Seth yeah. And thats what got you sick so thats why seth yeah. [ light laughter ] was sick. Seth yeah, yeah, yeah. But anyway, i was at home, sick and i went to take a shower. And i came out of the shower and i walked naked into the bedroom. And i walk into the bedroom. And all of a sudden this guy walks in the other door. It was a bedroom that had two doors on either end. He walked into the bedroom and i stood there, naked i dont know i was 16 or 17, Something Like that and he stood there for a moment and then took off running as fast as he could, and ran downstairs and out the front door seth that is terrifying for both of you. [ laughter ] i think it was probably more terrifying for him than it was for me seth which is a strange situation, he being the yeah. Seth breaker in. Yeah, yeah. But i yes, i think it was definitely more terrifying for him to run into somebody and then its a young male and then also theyre naked. Seth yeah. So i pull on some pants and i walk downstairs. And i notice theres a backdoor, windows been broken i mean, its everything you want from a breakin. Seth yeah. You know, the windows been broken and then the police were called. They came to the house they dusted for fingerprints seth the best. I mean it couldnt have been seth the dream yeah right, it was like everything you wanted the fingerprint dusting, Everything Else which i think now is obsolete. But anyway i was happy for it. And i can tell you that fingerprint dust, even with the cleaning of the house, as some sort of badge of honor, that fingerprint dust stayed on the little door and window frame in that back room literally until it just sort of wore off no one washed it off i think we thought for the authorities, we were just going to leave it or something anyway, so they did that and that was that. And then i was going to a school in the next town over, a boarding school that i was a day student at and i everyone had some sort of work duty that they had to do and especially i was a scholarship student. And so i think they i cant remember but i think you had a little bit more work duty you had to do, which is an odd concept. Seth right that youre on scholarship. So youre going to have to work a little bit harder for it but anyway, so i was working on the switchboard, which i quickly learned was the easiest and most fun job for work duty, was answering the phone. It was the phone at the school and i was sitting there during my time, probably six months later, and 17. And the phone rings. And i pick up the phone and say, phillips academy. And they say, yes, this is the Andover Police department. And were looking for a student. And i said, ah, okay. Well, im not sure if i can help you with that, but okay. And they said, yes,ts a james spader. [ light laughter ] and i immediately thought, what have i done . Seth yeah. In the last six months. Seth right, cause they already got you on the egg thing. [ laughter ] that was a closed case at this point, right [ applause ] i froze for a second. cause i didnt but then i thought, i mean, theyve got me. Seth yeah. Right im on the phone already so i said, this is he. And can i tell you something i had to go downtown [ laughter ] and i had to go and see a lineup seth thats why they called . They had a lineup . They called they had a lineup. Seth thats so exciting. Yeah, it was really exciting. I went, they said, we think that, you know, weve found the guy. And so were going to have you see a lineup i mean, i loved gangster movies and stuff like that. So i thought this was the greatest thing in the world. I thought i was going to go in there. And there was going to be like james cagney seth yeah. And edward g. Robinson. And i was so excited and i went and i couldnt i. D. The guy. He wasnt there. And they were you know, they were really genuinely disappointed in me but seth yeah. He wasnt there seth well, thats you took i looked at five guys seth the moral path, yeah. I did i mean i it would have been nice if the story had been able to continue if i had then been able to be a witness seth oh, my god. For the trial seth or be at the end, be like point at the man. And you got to do that thing yeah, yeah. Seth well, i mean at least the upside is you didnt finger a guy who then had to look at a lineup of you and four other naked 17yearolds [ laughter ] is that the appropriate term, finger the guy [ laughter and applause seth finger the guy. Is that seth i think [ applause ] i dont know if thats the term seth youre right. Well edit that part out james spader, everybody. [ cheers and applause the blacklist airs on fridays at 8 00 p. M.
