Now that the World Cup has come to an end, America can get back to the diarrhea-heavy vibes that preceded it. Failures from up and down the government have been building since Trump took office in 2025, with a list of broken promises resulting in foodborne illnesses, climate catastrophes, and half a dozen new wars for our ever-stingy government to endlessly fund. As Jon Stewart hammers home on tonight’s opening segment, the Trump-led mission to end DEI and bring in big, beautiful meritocracy has been another example of the opposite day politics that made the last two years such a nightmare. Instead of ending wars, the Department of Defense is testing soldiers for low T, and rather than curing disease, the Department of Health and Human Services is overseeing a Legionnaires outbreak. But at least we have a champion in Jimothy, a short king of a raccoon that reminds us there’s some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for.
