The Daily Show S30E71 · June 4, 2025 - Leah Litman

Overview

Michael Kosta dives into the fallout of Trump's Big Beautiful Bill: Elon slamming the "sprawling spending bill" and turning on Trump, Democrats backing Elon's criticisms, and Marjorie Taylor Greene revealing she never read it in the first place. Plus, the Big Beautiful Bill (Troy Iwata) claps back at all the new haters. The Trump administration has pushed out legacy media outlets from the White House press room in favor of more conspiratorial right-wing "new media" figures like Tim Pool: a conservative YouTuber and podcaster passionate about stroking Trump's ego and delivering truthful reporting sponsored by Russian interests. "The next several decades might look like a ‘Hunger Games' for liberal constitutional democracy." University of Michigan Law professor and "Strict Scrutiny" co-host Leah Litman joins Michael Kosta to discuss her New York Times bestseller, "Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes."
