Outlines
😀 White House Correspondence Dinner and Presidential Humor
The first paragraph discusses the contrast between the public's perception of a struggling economy and the official numbers indicating a strong one. It delves into the annual White House Correspondence Dinner, a century-old tradition where the President, politicians, journalists, and celebrities gather to set aside their adversarial roles and engage in a night of camaraderie. The paragraph highlights how presidents use humor, often with props and impersonators, to connect with the press. It contrasts the approach of former President Trump, who had a contentious relationship with the press and did not attend the dinner, with President Biden's attempt to rekindle the tradition, despite some difficulties during the event.
🗣️ Media's Role and Biden's Appeal
The second paragraph focuses on the relationship between the media and President Biden, suggesting that the press has been protective of him. It describes how Biden, during the Correspondence Dinner, urged the media to rise above superficial coverage and focus on the gravity of the current political moment and the state of democracy. The paragraph also touches on the dynamics of the 2024 election campaign, the role of the press in shaping the narrative, and the perception of bias in the media's coverage of political figures.
🚨 Policing and Campus Unrest
The third paragraph addresses the issue of law enforcement and public safety, with references to a shootout in Charlotte, North Carolina, that resulted in the death of three US Marshals. It discusses the broader perception of a 'war on cops' and the impact of this on society. Additionally, the paragraph covers instances of unrest on college campuses, where students have been engaging in protests and replacing the American flag with the Palestinian flag. It criticizes the lack of enforcement of rules and policies on campuses and the double standards in handling protests of different political inclinations.
🤔 The Enforcement of Rules and Consequences
This paragraph debates the importance of enforcing rules within society, drawing parallels between household discipline and societal governance. It argues against the leniency shown by universities in enforcing their rules, which has led to intimidation and harassment of certain groups on campus. The discussion extends to the political implications of such actions, including the portrayal of Republicans as being against free speech and the perceived chaos under the Biden administration. The paragraph ends with a call for a return to rule enforcement and personal responsibility.
🏛️ Economic Policies and Political Campaigning
The fifth paragraph shifts the focus to political strategies and economic policies. It discusses how the Biden administration is promoting economic opportunity zones, which are likened to Trump's previous policies. The paragraph also touches on Vice President Kamala Harris's low public approval and the challenges her unpopularity poses for the Democratic Party. It includes commentary on her public persona and the need for a rebranding of her image.
😂 The State of Comedy and Political Correctness
The sixth paragraph laments the loss of humor and comedy due to increasing political correctness. It includes a discussion with actor John O'Hurley, who played J. Peterman on Seinfeld, about how the show would not be successful in today's climate due to the expectation to remove edgy content. The paragraph explores the idea that comedy has become more about sarcasm and mocking rather than silliness and self-deprecation. It concludes with a call to reclaim the ability to laugh at oneself and each other without fear of causing offense.

Transcripts
tonight the economy The Vibes are bad
but the numbers say it's strong the
economy is kind of like you on the steps
of Air Force One Biden and the
correspondence dinner what the real
message was
what once a year politicians journalists
and celebrities get dressed up for the
White House Correspondence Dinner a
tradition that goes back over a century
to Warren Harding when the president and
the Press who theoretically have an
adversarial relationship lay down their
weapons and pick up their silverware and
give each other a good old ribbon over
cocktails and filt it's designed to
demonstrate the humanity of Washington
which is why it only happens once a
year it's not often that we have so many
people who've written about us and
broadcast about us all together in one
room like this and I thought you might
like to say a few nice words to them
[Music]
how about just a word or two something
friendly even one kind
word I'm thinking I'm
thinking the presidents Flex their funny
bones they bring props even
impersonators distinguished guests
ladies and
gentlemen here I
am as you
know I always look forward to these
dinners it's just about bunch of media
types Hollywood
liberals Democrats like Joe Biden how
come I can't have dinner with the 36% of
the people who like
me the only thing missing is Hillary
Clinton sitting on the front row rolling
her ass Barack Obama brought out his
anger
translator we won't always see I ey oh
and see there thank you so much for the
wall toall Ebola coverage for two whole
weeks we were one step away from the
Walking
Dead and then you all got up and just
moved on to the next
day that was awesome oh and by the way
just if you have noticed you don't have
Ebola and in order to even the score the
Press books a comedian to roast them
all the vice president isn't here
tonight not for security reasons he just
thought this event was being held at the
dullas airport
Applebees yes right now Joe is elbow
deep in jalapeno poppers and talking to
a construction cone he thinks is John
Boehner also true but the relationship
between the press and the president
Trump was so
acrimonious you know with them calling
him a racist Russian traitor from day
one that he no-showed the dinner for his
entire term Biden brought the party back
Saturday night but had a hard time
breaking bread literally breaking that
piece of bread look
challenging now we didn't slow the tape
down at all this is at regular speed
you'd think having dinner with a
thousand of your closest friends in
entire industry keeping you in office
you'd be in a better mood but Biden just
looked mad that he had to eat salad
Colin Jo who's married to Scarlett
Johansson and who does weekend update on
Saturday Night Live he was
DMC the last time I was in DC I left my
cocaine at the White House
luckily the president was able to put it
to good use for a state of the
union Colin had another good
line like many of you here tonight I
pretend to do news on
TV My Weekend Update co-anchor Michael
Chay was going to join me here tonight
but in solidarity with President Biden I
decided to lose all my black support
besides that Collins jokes didn't have
any bite the president still being
protected even at a
roast finally Joe got on stage and had
one good joke it's been a year since I
delivered this speech and my wife Joe
was with me tonight was worried how I do
I told her don't worry just like riding
a bike she said that's what I'm worried
about now the rest of the evening was
lame and tame the president's jokes
didn't land and most of his material
wasn't even aimed at the Press Trump was
the
punchline the 2024 elections in full
swing and yes age is an issue I'm a
grown
man running against a
six-year-old Biden and the Press are
supposed to get up there and roast each
other and neither of them did the
president and the Press are now a
protected class the is a joke and Biden
can't take one Barack Obama did 20
minutes on stage Biden only spoke for
six he didn't bash the media he actually
begged the media to bury
Trump but asking to rise up to the
seriousness of the
moment move past the horse race numbers
and the gotcha moments and the
distractions the sides shows that come
to dominate and sensationalize our
sensationalize our politics and focus on
what's actually at stake and I think in
your heart you know it was at stake the
stakes couldn't be
higher every single one of us has rad to
play a serious role to play making sure
democracy endures American democracy I
more my role but all due respect so do
you what kind of democracy does America
have if the president conspires with the
press to put the other politician in
prison Biden's ordering reporters don't
cover my bad polls my gaffs or the Arab
Spring Break break don't cover this
election Your Role is to destroy my
rival how much more help can the media
give Joe and how's the media getting
bossed around by a guy who doesn't even
talk to them he's barking orders to the
New York Times who he's never sat down
with after he just sat down with Howard
Stern for an hour Biden Ducks Super Bowl
interviews with CBS so he can play patty
cake with Al Roker and now he's ordering
reporters to cover the bloodbath hoax
not the horse race it's because Biden's
losing the horse race and wants to keep
it hidden from the country a new CNN
poll has Biden losing to Trump by six
points these are Landslide numbers when
you factor in RFK Jr Trump's almost
beating Biden by double digits and this
is a CNN poll the Bloomberg poll had
Trump beaten Biden in six out of the
seven battle grounds look at that and
Trump's been in court for the last two
weeks while Biden's been campaigning
the New York Times calls it a blueprint
for a trump Electoral College Victory
and a gift from the political Gods quote
the Manhattan courtroom will be the
setting for Mr Trump to play the role of
a familiar American archetype the
wronged man Seeking Justice from corrupt
powerful forces the former president is
good in this role and that's no small
thing maybe the gag orders and corrupt
court calendar will win Trump the White
House just like Biden's basement
campaign did it keeps the former
president disciplined structured and
away from his tongue wagging
freewheeling rallies and forces Biden to
actually
campaign it gives the media less of an
opportunity to twist Trump's words and
more of an opportunity for Biden to get
tongue twisted or tell his cannibals at
his uncle and it puts Biden in a harsh
Spotlight and puts Trump on an
interesting stage that voters have never
seen before an intriguing courtroom
drama remember Trump beat Hillary by
running against a rigged system and what
better scene could a director set for
Trump than in a courtroom unfairly
prosecuted by Savage Democrats rigging
the election with trials because they
know the sitting president can barely
stand even though Biden told Howard
Stern he'd debate Trump Democrats don't
want him to Biden folks don't want him
to debate they don't want to give Trump
that platform and risk exposing Biden
like that on national TV ducking a
presidential debate while you put your
opponent on trial is exactly why Biden
spent Saturday night not poking fun at
the Press but begging them to save
democracy when he really means save his
presidency former White House Press
Secretary Kaylee mckany joins me now
Kaylee did you go to the
dinner no Jesse I stay far away from the
hyenas I spent enough time with them in
the briefing room good you were probably
watching Jesse Waters Prime Time on DVR
like all of us do on Saturday nights
what what was this like for you I know
you experienced this you know sitting
there and then watching it from TV this
one seemed different to
me yeah it's really odd to watch Joe
Biden sit there and complain that this
room full of people are insufficiently
psyop phenic psychop to him I mean these
are people that drool over him when I
when I look at some of these polls and I
see oh there are 2% who think the
economy is excellent they're the people
in that room they were less than
thrilled and there you have Biden
sitting there begging them essentially
to cover for him and it's just
interesting to watch because you know I
go back to my briefings and I'll hostile
the presses and Karine John Pier's
briefing it's really just a conversation
among friends and you look at what
happened Saturday night it's just
another conversation among friends add
in some WI
add in some dinner and put it on a
Saturday night this is the group that
America is up against the Press is
covering for him but I don't think it
makes him cross the finish line yeah
probably add in some gummies too when
you know somebody who you don't like
Kaylee and that person who you don't
like likes something and then you think
wait a second if that person likes
something I can't like that that that
must be bad it's kind of like when
Gutfeld likes a song I'm like oh my God
this song must be terrible do you think
the American voters see the media love
and protect Joe Biden so pathetically
they're like wait a second this is gross
if someone likes Joe Biden that much and
Carries that much water for him
something must be
wrong yes yes and I I totally resonate
with the Gutfeld song so I'm with you on
that uh they're the worst and yours are
pretty good there on the five um but
look they I think that you know they
they see the economy is terrible they
can't afford food I mean this is
widespread young people can't afford
mortgages can't afford a home can't
afford rent and then you flip it over to
the New York Times and there's this one
article I just can't get out of my head
from a few months back where it's
Aviator Joe you know dark Brandon and
that time when that Meme came up they
just all glommed on to it and all of
these major news outlets were almost
celebratory like this guy's finally cool
he finally has one iota of the Swagger
that Barack Obama had and they tried to
make it work and people just look at
that they roll their eyes and they see
this presidency for the failure of what
it is and they think back to three years
ago and they remember the good days of
President Trump and that is why you see
the polls soaring the way they are for
the former president yeah dark Brandon
had trouble ripping that dinner roll in
half probably needed his aviators for
that a little oomph Kaylee thank you so
much good to see you little butter knife
little butter knife use the knife
Johnny Goes to Palm
Beach name a state that borders Florida
South Carolina swe in Charlotte North
Carolina leaving at least three Law
Enforcement Officers dead National
correspondent bill maluan has more Bill
and Jesse unfortunately the reports
coming out of Charlotte tonight are
pretty horrible so far three US Marshals
are dead and several local cops are hurt
as a result of a shootout with multiple
armed suspects and take a listen to this
video as neighbors could hear the
gunshots Tyler get in here get in the
bathroom
Ty now local residents report they could
hear active gunfire for hours as US
Marshals and the Charlotte mecklinburg
Police Department were trying to serve a
fugitive warrant on somebody for
possession of a firearm by a felon now
police say as they approached a home to
serve that warrant they were shot at
from somebody inside the house officer
shot back and ended up killing the
shooter on the front lawn but as they
approached the house for a second time
afterwards those officers were met with
more gunfire from inside the house
ultimately two people inside the home
were detained tragically three US
Marshals were killed and four Charlotte
police officers were injured one
critically we believe there are two
Shooters involved uh again we have two
people of interest at the police station
that are being questioned right now uh
and we have confirmed that the
individual that was uh set up that we
were serving the warrant on uh was the
individual who fired the initial shots
and was deceased in the front yard uh at
the end of all of this and Jesse the
Fraternal Order of Police says at least
11 police officers all across the
country have been shot in the last 3
days alone now in reaction to this
shooting they posted on X that there is
a war on going on Cops in America and
they say that is quote a stain on
society we'll send it back to you Bill
thank you campus crackdowns at schools
across the country this weekend in Texas
Arizona and Georgia students tore down
the American flag and raised the
Palestinian one just another reason why
Jesse Jr's going to Princeton at UCLA it
looked like the Gaza Strip with Israeli
and Hamas Defenders duking it out in
hand-to-hand combat in a MOS pit Arab
Spring Breakers even had the nerve to
disrupt the nerd prom yep demented
adults staged mock executions of isra
soldiers committing war crimes right
outside the White House correspondence
Center which itself is a crime against
how two different parts of the country
handle crime Texas enforces the law
state troopers broke up a massive
illegal student protest forming at UT
Austin 50 people arrested but at
Colombia where a caliphate's been set up
on the quad this part of the country
decided not to enforce the law the
university set a deadline for 2 p.m.
today pack up the terrorist tents City
or fa the consequences and guess what
happened the Clock Struck two and
nothing rules don't exist if you don't
enforce them ask any parent what happens
when you negotiate
bedtime then ask what happens when there
is no
bedtime do you want to live in a house
where children don't follow the rules
because they aren't enforced well we're
living in a country where adults don't
follow the rules because they're not
enforced do you like living in a country
like that I don't The View thinks we're
being too hard on Little Johnny
Jihad it has never been in my life in my
career the
criticizing policies of government is
equated with anti-Semitism and that I
think is a Far Right comes from the far
right it comes from the authoritarian
leanings where they don't want students
on these campuses to voice their
opinions because they want to change the
narrative going forward and I think we
have to be very since i't no one
supports free speech on campus more than
conservatives you should be able to
protest war chant slogans and speak your
mind without anybody censoring or
arresting you but this isn't about Free
Speech this is about physically
intimidating and harassing a religious
minority on campus with violent and
anti-semitic threats and preventing them
from going to class forcing remote
learning and blockading the site where
graduation is supposed to
happen conservatives said the wrong
pronouns and they were chased off campus
by throngs of purple-haired women
studies Majors but liberals can yell
kill Jews from a Hamas campsite and
members of congress come visit and then
order them
Pizza you know it's gotten bad when the
media says Republicans are pouncing the
Bezos Washington Post saying Trump GOP
sees on campus protests to depict chaos
under
Biden well I'm I'm not sure depicting
chaos I think this is chaos they
lathered up these schools with Dei
CRT and scrap the SATs and then had
tenured faculty tell them they'd get
extra credit for
activism to they can chant head speech
and there's no consequences cast classes
are canceled and Biden's hiding under
his
desk we continue to believe and I've
said this multiple times already uh
today is that peaceful peacefully
protest American should have the right
to do so uh to peacefully protest
whether it's at a commencement or at
their school or anywhere in this country
it has to be done where we do not have
hateful rhetoric violent rhetoric we
cannot we not we got to condemn those
that it should not be
allowed founder of less people forget
Elizabeth pipco joins me now Elizabeth
so you heard sunny on the views say this
is just about free speech and they
should be able to protest on campus and
it's not anti-American to protest War
what do you
say well first of all it is incredibly
anti-American to tear down American
flags during your protest while you
raise up flags of other nations that's
number one number two I'd like to point
out all of the incidents we have seen
the horrific incidents I'm talking the
violence the threats the hate speech on
these campuses these are the fault
solely of the universities not the
student protesters and again we're not
talking here about the right to
peacefully protest like you said we all
support the right to peacefully protest
we're talking about University's own
rules standards and policies which are
being broken every single day and
anytime one of these schools puts out
any kind of uh Potential Threat to
enforce their own policies we know those
threats are empty not just me and you
Jesse when I say we I mean the students
at these schools know that the threats
are empty by the way the ones who break
the rules but also the ones who are at
home terrified right now because they've
been threatened on their own campuses
for either being pro-israel or Jewish
themselves so what happens when Columbia
University tells this Tent City pack up
at two or else and then it's 2011 and
they're all just hanging out in the
tents doing God knows what what can
what's going to happen tomorrow next
week next month like when do they do
anything about
it clearly never right let me just say I
was a graduate student last year I got
my degree last May and I was kept to the
same standard as everyone else which was
following the rules which meant
obviously no plagiarism for example
citing sources even things like making
sure that my medical records were up to
date and sent to the school and if they
were not sent to my school I didn't get
to go to graduation I didn't get to go
to class I didn't get to enjoy the
freedoms of being a student I'm not
understanding why things like medical
records policies regarding submitting
those to the school are taken to a
higher standard compared to policies
regarding threatening other students or
trespassing in this case yeah we've now
been told we're allowed to plagiarize
enchant kill Jews and that's fine at
universities in the United States this
is a wild time to be alive Elizabeth
hopefully it gets better before it gets
worse thank you so much for coming on
great Prime Time thank you Joe Biden
took Kamala off ice today sending her to
Atlanta to pitch their Economic
Opportunity tour which are really just
Trump's opportunity zones that they pled
your us KL is telling black voters
reelect Joe and we'll pump cash into
your
neighborhoods this may actually help
with her name recognition considering
the black voters Johnny talks to can't
even pick her out of a
lineup who's this I don't know who is
that I know she's a black woman I don't
know who that is who the hell is that
how's kamla doing comma Paris dude how
proud are you of kamla
Harris all she does is laugh what has
she done for my community kamla Harris
loves her electric buses we don't need
that Cela she loves a lot of things she
don't love her people Democrats know KLA
is a hot mess but they're stuck with her
they need to get it together I mean not
a book plug but they need to the DNC
tested kamla with focus groups to figure
out why she's unlikable turns out it's
this and then I have a followup on
Afghanistan
okay think you just fell out of a
coconut tree
some people understand what I'm talking
about that cackle is hard to handle but
kamla doesn't care she is leaning into
Speaker of the House new Gingrich
speaker do we really need the great
protector
[Music]
mamala that's almost cruel I mean the
idea of cutting from we need a great
protector and have Kamala there is like
insane um she she has this problem she
is serving with the most unpopular
president in the history of the gallop
pole according to the last quarter and
she's less popular than the most
unpopular president yeah now that poses
a certain challenge for how you rebuild
particularly because we've had three and
a half years to learn that she can't
learn anything I mean the truth is when
you listen to her for a while it it's
somewhere between Soph moric and 8th
grade uh and and I think it's a nervous
giggle I think she laughs because she's
nervous and frankly when I listen to her
I get nervous too cuz she is the vice
president of the United States and the
idea of her being vice president I find
pretty frightening I do too and I will
not be going along with the rebranding I
will still call her kamla Harris not
mamala out of respect for my own mother
who was a great protector and someone
else needs protect and that's the Press
because Barack Obama former
president really wants everybody to be
nice to the Press because he says
speaker that the Press usually get
everything right
listen there's a difference between
facts and opinions yeah and the one
thing that our side still pretty much
sticks to is the facts you may not agree
with whatever is in the New York Times
or whatever is on MSNBC but generally
they're not going to just make stuff up
they're not gonna just make stuff
up now I mean what's frightening about
this is that Barack Obama probably
believes it he lives in a fantasy world
you know he's he's off in that gigantic
Mansion uh and he I suspect doesn't go
grocery shopping uh if he did he'd
understand that the real problem for Joe
Biden is called reality uh it's the
reality of crime it is the reality of
the Border collapsing it's the reality
of gasoline and grocery prices uh it's
the reality of a world that's in chaos
and now of course it's the reality of
students all over the C country who have
gone crazy uh and the natural
culmination of left-wing ideological
brainwashing uh on our campuses so you
know I think for Obama none of that
exists because he you know he lives in a
nice little isolated world
surrounded by people who say yes you
really are brilliant Mr President and he
believes them you know who doesn't say
it
Michelle everybody else tells him he's
brilliant except
her all right it is kind of funny that I
don't actually know what she says to him
yeah I I don't know either and I don't
need to know that's none of my business
new Gingrich thanks for coming
on great to be with you Johnny hits the
beach
who is the vice president of the United
States success was because Seinfeld
himself says his show would never fly
today the networks would just water down
every edgy joke we would have never met
the soupnazi the left made comedy boring
we can't even laugh at ourselves anymore
Jerry has had
enough there too many cooks in the
kitchen and dozens of Executives stri
the edginess out of every single crack
if Seinfeld was that safe
we never would have met Jay Peterman you
can hear Uncle boie laughing from the
grave Mr Peterman himself senfeld actor
John Hurley joins Prime Time Aro
Hurley I mean you couldn't do you
couldn't do cannibal jokes
today well somebody can but they have to
have been real right you have to be
president to make jokes like that
actually it actually reminds me of a
time when I was there in Papa new guine
with the little naked natives of bantes
presenting them with my annual mission
of charitable giving I gave them a Toto
washless toilet yes echo-friendly and
elegant even Under The Canopy of a
tropical
rainforest I miss J Peterman so much I
really do the the Rick Shaw that the
homeless were using for for I I think it
was Kramer he said they have nothing
else to do let strap some Rick shots to
him and have him more I mean homeless
jokes are probably a no goone
now well not only that they have
stripped uh there are there are several
uh actual episodes of Seinfeld that have
been stripped from the syndication
because they uh they didn't uh pass
mustard back then so um could you tell
us about some of these long l Puerto Ric
flag the the the the Puerto Rican flag
day I think was the uh was that the one
what uh I was in that actually I don't
remember what I did but uh I I I do
remember that never showing up again
well they probably took it out because
you were in
it think and I shouldn't take that
personally no of course not and you
shouldn't so John when you hear Jerry
talk about that I mean he seems sad I
mean he seems like it's never coming
back is is comedy back
well it's an interesting question
because um you know Jerry of course more
than anyone had a more accessible and
clean platform of Comedy I mean there
wasn't a cleaner comic in the business
in the last 50 years of uh our you know
our our laughs and for him to say that
and he said this about 10 years ago when
he said I no longer am doing college
campuses he says they're they're
mean-spirited and he says okay and that
was 10 years ago and now the problem is
that we have lost our ability to be
silly that's a sad thing when you think
about it I just yourself I have a whole
show I mean my oneman show is just all
self-deprecation and it's safe because I
can make fun of myself so you know I'm
hitting myself before anybody else can
take a shot at me and there's a lot of
material there we have lost our sense of
humor it really is I am a walking self-
parody so John you're saying are are
some people afraid of offending other
people because when you if if a Puerto
Rican guy says Fine make fun of me or a
Hispanic guy says sure come you know
come get come get some you know every
race gender Creed color whatever they're
fine with making fun of themselves I
think we're all sensitive of make of
making fun of
others historically ethnic groups would
be searching to be included in in the
comic repertoire of uh of our culture uh
and now no no no we can't and it's not
that they don't want it it's that
there's a select group of those who know
better who feel as though it they should
be deprived of it our comedy is no
longer silly it's not about that it's
mocking and it's sarcasm and that's not
comedy right we have to make America s
