The YT description:
"John Oliver addresses undecided voters about Kamala Harris’s platform in his last episode ahead of the 2024 election, discusses how Donald Trump’s businesses have changed since his presidential term, and explores what could happen if Trump is reelected."
You've saved many eyes this day.
He was always hesitant to attack Chavez on The Bugle iirc (for a lib)
He even got a Chavezogram that one time. I still search for it at times
God I miss The Bugle
His outpouring of dismay when Cameron won in 2015 was a real salve. It was a good podcast.
It almost equalled his standard reaction to any Saltzman pun run
the one that made me disregard him on anything outside of USA was when he complained about how Venezuela was undemocratic for banning some people for running for president but the people who were banned were guilty of attempting coups or assassinations against Chavez
Which is funny because it's a totally mixed-bag from state to state in terms of which states let you run for any kind of office after becoming a felon.
I'm sure the worst of the two Zazu's from The Lion King would agree that this guy shouldn't be allowed to run for office:
Solomon Peña overwhelmingly lost a bid for the New Mexico statehouse as a Republican and is accused of paying four men to shoot at the homes of four Democratic officials. He had denied his loss and made baseless claims that the November election was “rigged” against him, even though he received just 26% of the vote against the longtime Democratic incumbent.
But, I have to imagine that this penguin, poorly disguised as a rough 3 human on the hotness scale (a British 5 if you will), would think that this guy really didn't need to go through all the trouble he did.
Sam Titus, 66, defeated the incumbent Democrat in his Burt County supervisor race in November. But to take office, he had to wait until his pardon was granted more than a month later by a panel that included the governor, secretary of state and attorney general.
Titus had two felony convictions from years ago, including for buying a stolen planter for his farm, which he described as a “poor decision.” He served probation and thought the convictions had been expunged. He discovered the pardon requirement after winning a race in 2020 for the local airport authority board and learning he could not be sworn in.

“Our lawmakers truly need to realize how important it is to help those that have changed their lives, understand their wrongs, are good people, want to move forward, want to do the right thing and want to give back to those people that they have hurt,” he said.
You've got to find the line somewhere, John!
He's not exactly employed by the state, but by the establishment controlling the state. Subtle but important difference.
Yeah I just didn't want to write something like "the deep state" because it would summon an infinite number of 
And not to attack you, but ya "the deep state" can be a dog-whistle for antisemitism.
yeah that too was a reason, no attack perceived
I don't see a meaningful difference between the two. Much like I don't see how "thinktanks" that provide policy to the state are not part of the state itself. It's effectively the privatisation of branches of state. They're still the state, just under absolute complete and total capital-control with absolutely zero potential for "democratic" machinations to affect them.
Isn't that the state though? The state is the avatar, the apparatus, the tool and apparatus of the dominant political class of a given polity. It doesn't necessarily need to be a government position, agency, or NGO/NPO connected thereof.
you're not allowed on HBO unless you tow the line
Isn't he just a massive lib? Also, video not available in my country, which is weird because its about our elections.

absolute comedy that the video is blocked in America
Oh I understand why now. What was linked is the full episode, which, in Burgerland you have to be an HBO subscriber to watch. Instead, we get the cut down version for YouTube.
At 8:10 in the Burgerland version, he says: "I've been moved by some Muslim and Arab voices who've also wrestled hard with this question and arrived at the conclusion that, despite their pain, to vote for Harris" and then spends two minutes on those people before showing an unflattering Trump photo so you stop thinking anything more than that
ah makes sense
not even worth

isn't he married to some State Department neocon ghoul?
I just learned that Nuland's husband is an editor of Bezo's Washington Post, there's too much connection between neocon ghouls and mainstream mass media
Operation mockingbird media
They all have the same opinions as the state department and CIA
Jacobin, ONN, wired, the economist, bellingcat, every single "simplified " YouTuber, all the same shit.
