Last Week Tonight with John Oliver 12×5

1
00:00:29,476 --> 00:00:32,112
Welcome to "Last Week Tonight"!

2
00:00:32,312 --> 00:00:36,449
I'm John Oliver, thank you for
joining us. It has been a busy week.

3
00:00:36,549 --> 00:00:38,051
Chuck Schumer and 10 Democrats

4
00:00:38,218 --> 00:00:40,019
caved on a resolution
to fund the federal government,

5
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,988
Dr. Oz had his confirmation hearing

6
00:00:42,055 --> 00:00:45,058
and the White House essentially
staged a Tesla promotional event,

7
00:00:45,191 --> 00:00:47,627
complete with Trump carrying
around handwritten notes

8
00:00:47,727 --> 00:00:50,964
about pricing like a car salesman
on his first day.

9
00:00:51,664 --> 00:00:54,634
Meanwhile, federal workers continued
to be fired for no clear reason.

10
00:00:54,834 --> 00:00:56,336
Though,
in the case of one pardon attorney,

11
00:00:56,436 --> 00:00:58,771
there seemed to be
a pretty specific one.

12
00:00:59,172 --> 00:01:02,542
Tonight, Liz Oyer says she lost her job
because she refused

13
00:01:02,609 --> 00:01:06,513
to recommend that Mel Gibson
be allowed to buy a gun again.

14
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,350
The actor and a backer of the
president's lost that gun right

15
00:01:10,450 --> 00:01:14,988
after he pleaded no contest to
a domestic violence charge in 2011.

16
00:01:15,355 --> 00:01:18,024
When I came into work on Friday
morning, I said to a colleague,

17
00:01:18,391 --> 00:01:21,861
"I really think that Mel Gibson
might be my downfall."

18
00:01:22,428 --> 00:01:27,433
And within hours of saying that,
I was being escorted out of my office.

19
00:01:28,434 --> 00:01:32,305
It is frankly incredible she got fired
because she didn't think Mel Gibson,

20
00:01:32,472 --> 00:01:36,042
best known for his work
in screaming, should have guns.

21
00:01:36,142 --> 00:01:38,645
If you've forgotten the specifics
of his various scandals,

22
00:01:38,778 --> 00:01:40,613
I recommend you check out
his Wikipedia page,

23
00:01:40,713 --> 00:01:42,549
and while you're there,
check out his dad's,

24
00:01:42,615 --> 00:01:45,485
because the opening paragraph
alone is spectacular.

25
00:01:45,752 --> 00:01:49,556
Hutton Peter Gibson was an American
conspiracy theorist, Holocaust denier,

26
00:01:49,689 --> 00:01:51,925
writer on sedevacantism,
which is a belief

27
00:01:52,025 --> 00:01:54,761
that there hasn't been a valid
pope since 1958,

28
00:01:55,028 --> 00:01:59,365
a World War II veteran,
'Jeopardy!' grand champion for 1968

29
00:01:59,632 --> 00:02:01,134
and the father of 11 children,

30
00:02:01,201 --> 00:02:03,603
one of whom is the actor
and director Mel Gibson.

31
00:02:03,803 --> 00:02:08,107
That is a fascinating man. And
imagine having so many terrible views

32
00:02:08,208 --> 00:02:12,245
that producing Mel Gibson is not
the worst thing about you.

33
00:02:13,379 --> 00:02:15,148
But we're gonna focus
on another bold move

34
00:02:15,248 --> 00:02:16,783
the Trump administration
made this week.

35
00:02:17,317 --> 00:02:20,553
Tonight, anger spilling onto
New York City sidewalks

36
00:02:20,853 --> 00:02:24,123
after federal immigration agents
arrested Mahmoud Khalil,

37
00:02:24,357 --> 00:02:27,794
who his lawyer says is a legal
permanent resident with a green card.

38
00:02:28,194 --> 00:02:31,130
Khalil recently finished a master's
at Columbia and helped

39
00:02:31,197 --> 00:02:33,666
lead pro-Palestinian
protests on campus.

40
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:37,804
His lawyer adding he was detained
on Saturday in front of his wife,

41
00:02:38,037 --> 00:02:40,807
a U.S. citizen who
is eight months pregnant.

42
00:02:40,873 --> 00:02:41,975
President Trump has vowed

43
00:02:42,075 --> 00:02:45,111
to crack down on antisemitism
on college campuses.

44
00:02:45,411 --> 00:02:49,549
Today he called Khalil's detainment
"the first arrest of many to come."

45
00:02:50,049 --> 00:02:51,451
Okay, so there's a lot there.

46
00:02:51,584 --> 00:02:54,954
First, Trump wanting to crack down
on antisemitism is pretty rich,

47
00:02:55,021 --> 00:02:57,690
given a top DOD press secretary
was recently found to have

48
00:02:57,757 --> 00:02:59,859
a history
of racist and antisemitic tweets,

49
00:03:00,093 --> 00:03:03,129
Musk and JD Vance both recently
supported Germany's AFD,

50
00:03:03,229 --> 00:03:07,567
a party with ties to neo-Nazis,
and of course there was this shit,

51
00:03:08,434 --> 00:03:10,803
and that is all before you get
to their efforts this week

52
00:03:10,870 --> 00:03:13,706
to make sure that this fucking guy,
whose views on the Jews

53
00:03:13,773 --> 00:03:17,777
are, let's say, a matter of public
record, got his guns back.

54
00:03:17,877 --> 00:03:19,379
Set all of that aside.

55
00:03:19,479 --> 00:03:23,249
Clearly, you shouldn't be deporting
green card holders for their views.

56
00:03:23,383 --> 00:03:25,351
And for what it's worth,
regardless of what others

57
00:03:25,485 --> 00:03:27,353
may have said
or done during those protests,

58
00:03:27,453 --> 00:03:31,858
Khalil explicitly said, "Antisemitism
and any other form of racism"

59
00:03:31,958 --> 00:03:34,494
"has no place on this campus
and in this movement."

60
00:03:34,894 --> 00:03:37,930
It's also notable some Jewish
students at Columbia rallied

61
00:03:38,031 --> 00:03:39,432
in support of Khalil this week.

62
00:03:39,499 --> 00:03:41,734
And while the word bitch
in me wants to point out

63
00:03:41,834 --> 00:03:44,370
that's not how you spell
the word "fascism",

64
00:03:45,238 --> 00:03:49,008
I don't want to draw attention from
the excellent "pigs aren't kosher" sign

65
00:03:49,208 --> 00:03:50,810
just a few feet behind it.

66
00:03:50,910 --> 00:03:53,880
That's the kind of pithy slogan
that would turn Don Draper's head.

67
00:03:54,047 --> 00:03:56,649
He wouldn't hire a Jewish copywriter
until pretty late in the show,

68
00:03:56,749 --> 00:03:58,851
but still,
put that in your book, kid.

69
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:01,554
Amid all the justified outrage,

70
00:04:01,654 --> 00:04:04,924
it is notable how little rationale
for this arrest has been offered.

71
00:04:05,024 --> 00:04:06,626
When Mike Johnson was asked

72
00:04:06,693 --> 00:04:10,163
what specific crime Khalil
committed, this was his response.

73
00:04:10,763 --> 00:04:12,932
If you are on a student visa
and you're in America

74
00:04:13,299 --> 00:04:14,801
and you're an aspiring young terrorist

75
00:04:14,901 --> 00:04:17,737
who wants to prey upon your
Jewish classmates, you're going home.

76
00:04:18,204 --> 00:04:22,775
We're gonna arrest yourŧ tail and
send you home where you belong.

77
00:04:23,309 --> 00:04:25,878
Okay. First, he's not on
a student visa anymore,

78
00:04:25,945 --> 00:04:27,347
he has a green card.

79
00:04:27,513 --> 00:04:30,650
Second, "aspiring young terrorist"
would be a great band name,

80
00:04:30,817 --> 00:04:34,887
but it's an awful thing to call someone
who engaged in protected protest.

81
00:04:34,987 --> 00:04:36,756
And finally, if you're gonna do
something this offensive,

82
00:04:36,923 --> 00:04:38,257
don't get cute about it.

83
00:04:38,324 --> 00:04:41,461
Just say "we're gonna arrest
your ass" like a fucking adult.

84
00:04:42,261 --> 00:04:44,130
And it's not just Johnson

85
00:04:44,263 --> 00:04:46,866
making big claims
about Khalil without support.

86
00:04:46,933 --> 00:04:49,335
The Department of Homeland Security,
for instance, claimed

87
00:04:49,435 --> 00:04:51,771
he "led activities
aligned to Hamas",

88
00:04:51,838 --> 00:04:55,808
but when a DHS official was asked
to back up that assertion by NPR,

89
00:04:55,908 --> 00:04:58,077
he had shockingly little
in response.

90
00:04:58,745 --> 00:05:02,448
How did he support Hamas?
Exactly what did he do?

91
00:05:03,683 --> 00:05:07,854
I think you can see it on TV, right?
This is somebody that

92
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,158
we've invited and allowed
the student to come into the country

93
00

1
00:00:29,476 --> 00:00:32,112
Bem -vindo a "Na semana
passada esta noite"!

2
00:00:32,312 --> 00:00:36,449
Eu sou John Oliver, obrigado por Juntando
-se a nós. Foi uma semana movimentada.

3
00:00:36,549 --> 00:00:38,051
Chuck Schumer e 10 democratas cederam em uma

4
00:00:38,218 --> 00:00:40,019
resolução Para financiar
o governo federal, o Dr.

5
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,988
Oz teve sua audiência de
confirmação e a Casa Branca

6
00:00:42,055 --> 00:00:45,058
essencialmente

realizou um evento promocional da

7
00:00:45,191 --> 00:00:47,627
Tesla, completo com trunfo carregando

em torno de

8
00:00:47,727 --> 00:00:50,964
notas manuscritas sobre preços como um vendedor de carros

em seu primeiro dia.

9
00:00:51,664 --> 00:00:54,634
Enquanto isso, os trabalhadores federais
continuaram ser demitido sem motivo claro.

10
00:00:54,834 --> 00:00:56,336
Embora, No caso de um advogado de

11
00:00:56,436 --> 00:00:58,771
perdão, parecia haver um bastante específico.

12
00:00:59,172 --> 00:01:02,542
Hoje à noite, Liz Oyer diz que perdeu o emprego Porque ela se recusou a

13
00:01:02,609 --> 00:01:06,513
recomendar que Mel Gibson ter permissão para comprar uma arma novamente.

14
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,350
O ator e um patrocinador do O presidente perdeu essa arma logo

15
00:01:10,450 --> 00:01:14,988
depois de não contestar uma acusação de violência doméstica em 2011.

16
00:01:15,355 --> 00:01:18,024
Quando entrei no trabalho na sexta -feira manhã, eu disse a um

17
00:01:18,391 --> 00:01:21,861
colega: "Eu realmente acho que Mel Gibson Pode ser minha queda. "

18
00:01:22,428 --> 00:01:27,433
E poucas horas depois de dizer isso, Eu estava
sendo escoltado para fora do meu escritório.

19
00:01:28,434 --> 00:01:32,305
É francamente incrível que ela tenha sido
demitida Porque ela não achou Mel Gibson,

20
00:01:32,472 --> 00:01:36,042
mais conhecido por seu
trabalho Em gritos, deve ter armas.

21
00:01:36,142 --> 00:01:38,645
Se você esqueceu os detalhes

de seus vários

22
00:01:38,778 --> 00:01:40,613
escândalos, eu recomendo que você confira

sua página

23
00:01:40,713 --> 00:01:42,549
da Wikipedia, e enquanto você estiver lá,

Confira o

24
00:01:42,615 --> 00:01:45,485
pai dele, porque o parágrafo de abertura

sozinho é espetacular.

25
00:01:45,752 --> 00:01:49,556
Hutton Peter Gibson era um americano

teórico da

26
00:01:49,689 --> 00:01:51,925
conspiração, negador do Holocausto, escritor sobre

27
00:01:52,025 --> 00:01:54,761
sedevacantismo,

o que é uma crença de que não houve

28
00:01:55,028 --> 00:01:59,365
um válido

Pope desde 1958, um veterano da Segunda

29
00:01:59,632 --> 00:02:01,134
Guerra Mundial,

'Perigo!' 
Grande Campeão de 1968 e

30
00:02:01,201 --> 00:02:03,603
pai de 11 filhos, um dos quais é o ator

e diretor Mel Gibson.

31
00:02:03,803 --> 00:02:08,107
Esse é um homem fascinante. E imagine ter tantas visões

32
00:02:08,208 --> 00:02:12,245
terríveis que produzir Mel Gibson não é A pior coisa sobre você.

33
00:02:13,379 --> 00:02:15,148
Mas vamos nos concentrar Em outro movimento

34
00:02:15,248 --> 00:02:16,783
ousado, o governo Trump feito esta semana.

35
00:02:17,317 --> 00:02:20,553
Hoje à noite, raiva derramando

Calçadas da cidade de Nova York

36
00:02:20,853 --> 00:02:24,123
após agentes federais de imigração

preso Mahmoud Khalil, que seu

37
00:02:24,357 --> 00:02:27,794
advogado diz ser um legal

residente permanente com um green card.

38
00:02:28,194 --> 00:02:31,130
Khalil terminou recentemente um mestre na Columbia

39
00:02:31,197 --> 00:02:33,666
e ajudou a liderar o pró-palestino protestos no campus.

40
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:37,804
Seu advogado acrescentando que ele foi
detido no sábado em frente a sua esposa,

41
00:02:38,037 --> 00:02:40,807
um cidadão dos EUA que
está grávida de oito meses.

42
00:02:40,873 --> 00:02:41,975
O presidente Trump prometeu

43
00:02:42,075 --> 00:02:45,111
reprimir o anti -semitismo

em campi da faculdade.

44
00:02:45,411 --> 00:02:49,549
Hoje ele chamou o detimento de Khalil
"A primeira prisão de muitos por vir."

45
00:02:50,049 --> 00:02:51,451
Ok, então há muito lá.

46
00:02:51,584 --> 00:02:54,954
Primeiro, Trump querendo reprimir

Sobre o anti -semitismo é bastante

47
00:02:55,021 --> 00:02:57,690
rico, dado um secretário de imprensa do Departamento de Defesa de

48
00:02:57,757 --> 00:02:59,859
Top

recentemente foi encontrado para ter uma história

de tweets

49
00:03:00,093 --> 00:03:03,129
racistas e anti -semitas, Musk e JD Vance recentemente

apoiou a AFD da

50
00:03:03,229 --> 00:03:07,567
Alemanha, uma festa com laços com os neonazistas,

E é claro que houve

51
00:03:08,434 --> 00:03:10,803
essa merda, e isso é tudo antes de você conseguir

para seus esforços esta semana

52
00:03:10,870 --> 00:03:13,706
para ter certeza de que esse cara porra,

cujas opiniões sobre os judeus

53
00:03:13,773 --> 00:03:17,777
são, digamos, uma questão de público

Record, recuperou suas armas.

54
00:03:17,877 --> 00:03:19,379
Coloque tudo isso de lado.

55
00:03:19,479 --> 00:03:23,249
Claramente, você não deveria estar deportando
Titulares de green card para suas opiniões.

56
00:03:23,383 --> 00:03:25,351
E pelo que vale a pena,

Independentemente do que os outros

57
00:03:25,485 --> 00:03:27,353
possam ter dito

Ou feito durante esses protestos, Khalil

58
00:03:27,453 --> 00:03:31,858
disse explicitamente: "Antisemitismo

E qualquer outra forma

59
00:03:31,958 --> 00:03:34,494
de racismo "" não tem lugar neste campus

e neste movimento. "

60
00:03:34,894 --> 00:03:37,930
Também é notável algum judeu Os alunos da

61
00:03:38,031 --> 00:03:39,432
Columbia se uniram em apoio a Khalil nesta semana.

62
00:03:39,499 --> 00:03:41,734
E enquanto a palavra vadia

em mim quer ressaltar

63
00:03:41,834 --> 00:03:44,370
que não é assim que você soletra

A palavra

64
00:03:45,238 --> 00:03:49,008
"fascismo", eu não quero chamar a atenção de

Os

65
00:03:49,208 --> 00:03:50,810
excelentes "porcos não são kosher" sinal a poucos metros atrás dele.

66
00:03:50,910 --> 00:03:53,880
Esse é o tipo de slogan pithy
Isso viraria a cabeça de Don Draper.

67
00:03:54,047 --> 00:03:56,649
Ele não contrataria um redator judeu até muito tarde no

68
00:03:56,749 --> 00:03:58,851
show, mas ainda assim, Coloque isso em seu livro, garoto.

69
00:03:59,319 --> 00:04:01,554
Em meio a toda a indignação justificada, é notável

70
00:04:01,654 --> 00:04:04,924
o quão pouca lógica pois esta prisão foi oferecida.

71
00:04:05,024 --> 00:04:06,626
Quando Mike Johnson foi perguntado

72
