My granddaughter is 23 and a junior in college studying Sociology. For the first time in her studies, she heard the phrase "Critical Race Theory." It's a University concept, not happening in elementary school.
@@duncan5063I don’t think she knows a god damned thing. I bet a million dollars I don’t have that she was one of the ones who believed they were putting litter boxes in classrooms.
They can't even DEFINE it, but it scares the bejesus out of them.
@@duncan5063 Did you come up with the name "Marginal" for MTG, or was that auto fill? Either way it's absolutely perfect because she is marginally so many things.
@@Daedalus_Dragon You are absolutely right.
Anything that acknowledges the existence of visible minorities is "critical race theory" to them.
I wish American elementary schools had billions of $ to spend on literally anything!
And a federal unity in the program of teaching and learning. Perhaps safer schools and society in general by reducing the number of guns, (from Boebert's 46%).
That's the real movie, remaking "Blank Check"
facts because if the did parents wont have to buy school supplies tissue plastic bags and hand cleaner lol
A school with access to that much funding that any student can access is going to get you highly educated kids with both the intelligence and resources to demand huge changes in this country. That's what the GOP fears most
@rgs8970. He started to ask her WHAT school, but she over talked him and went on to her next lie.
Having been in the Illinois school system for 30 years, I absolutely unequivocally swear no Illinois elementary school has received billions of dollars for anything.
Why can't Katie Porter or Sheldon Whitehouse (or any Congressional official) make a correction with data visuals identifying the lie. It is SO FRUSTRATING these lies can not be read into the official record along with supporting proof of their purposeful misrepresentation to the American people. Can anyone explain to me what I'm missing?
I loved the library when I was a kid. If I had seen that library when I was a kid I would have cried.
@leumeah M - I so loved libraries, too. I would curl up on the floor between the stacks and read - the Moomins, the Black Stallion books, Japanese fairy tales (if you think American kid's tales can be gory....!). One of my big goals in life was to have my own subscription to "National Geographic" as an adult - and I have.
Just a little tidbit here... After my first trip to an allergist when I was 4 (severely, dangerously asthmatic) my folks got rid of their gas stove for an electric on the advice of my doctor. This would have been in the late 50's.
“When we ban books in school before we ban guns, we admit that we are more afraid of our children learning than we are of them dying.” I wish I could remember where I saw this quote so I could give the person credit.
Internet has every book
@@8arrows seriously is there a bonfire in front of the school and sign saying NO MORE BOOKS. Seth's statement at the beginning was a little exaggerated
@@trakdropmanager8801 You know it is still a comedy show, right? Exaggerations can be used as a stylistic means to bring a point across. Still doesn't make the actual claim wrong, though.
@@trakdropmanager8801 yeah they stupid
@@8arrows Well, they got z-library shut down, so...
When Dump was elected, I honestly thought it was a prank, like...an April fools day
The most awful, endless, punishing April Fools day in history. An April Fools day that still has me waking up, terrified maybe the last election day was just a dream...
@@gl15col Yes, you people are easily controlled and proud of it.

Seriously? 🤣🤣🤣
@@jobabraham6844 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh, Seth, you do such a great job of showing off how foolish these fools are and making us laugh at them as they deserve!!🤣🤣
i dont need closer look but still nice to see like minded people
The premise of this video’s title is impossible. Someone can only be “embarrassed” if they are capable of humility. Someone is only capable of humility if they want to correct mistakes they’ve made, feel shame for the lies they’ve told, or remorse for the harm they’ve caused. You can’t shame the shameless.
Even if she turned a corner and apologized for her actions I'd still kick her to the curb. You cannot fix STUPID, HATEFUL, PEOPLE....and they don't deserve a second chance in my book. Leopards don't change their spots. With her it'd just be another con job.
Greed and the greedy have no shame, no conscience, no guilt, no responsibility, no compassion, no warmth, no hugs, only more cold shallow greed.
Those empty middle school bookshelves brought tears to my eyes. The library was the one place I truly felt safe in middle school.
And they blame School Shooting on everything except themselves. Desatan is doing this as an diversion from his failure as an State Excector.
I friends that are still without power after the Hurricane last year. Some place are still like a war zone.
Why our sorry ass Media hasn't reported this is reminiscent of the 2016 Election. They knew what Trump was but hide his dirt from the Voters.
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs to you and all the children, teachers and parents who are being hurt by this creep desantos!!!!
Me too,loved the library when I was a kid,it was a place of knowledge,stories,learning and I know things are different now with the Internet & Google,easier access to information n that's what I don't get,are they going to ban what kids can google next?
They going to override parents n give kids into trouble when they wonder what all the fuss is about CRT then just Google it?
It's absolutely maddening,how can anyone support or vote for these ppl??
My now adult children used to complain to me that they weren’t even allowed to go to the library at their middle school here in Texas. The students weren’t allowed to enter the school until the 5 minute warning bell sounded. They were in class all day, weren’t allowed to go during lunch and it closed an hour before school was out. This year a lot of books were banned at the schools. To Kill A Mockingbird used to be a required reading assignment and is now banned.
@Terry Rodriguez You think GOP would like TKaMB seeing how a Black man loses in court - *They live for injustice* !
9.7 Billion is the entire education budget for the whole of Illinois...
The fact that the GOP thinks MTG is fit to be on any committee when she shows up so woefully prepared for her first hearing, speaks volumes.
Basic arithmetic is also a lapdog of the Radical Left, don’t you know?
Math is the foundation of science, which is a liberal conspiracy, after all.
Mtg is very dumb
Yes. Not that she is unprepared, but that she is just totally clueless, Five billion to one elementary school for anything is absurd, but she has no number literacy (numeracy) and, does she actually believe what she is saying?
She is not capable of preparing. Doesn't understand math (her numbers are ludicrous), science ('peach tree dish'), history or culinary arts ('gazpacho'), falls for Q-Anon and is bigoted ( Jewish space lasers). She really is not capable of pretending to be even half intelligent.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 I forgot about the damn WOKE Maths that have taken over our schools.
Teaching kids 1+1???? Thats lgbt madness its 1+2 never 1+1.
One thing you learn in school is when you see a number, do a quick mental check to see it actually makes sense. That's how you know MTG probably didn't graduate high school on her own accord.
I live in Florida. I teach at a community college. I teach African American Literature. Everything is crazy here. Thanks for making me laugh. Tell me that this man can't win in the US.
Hey I'd be interested in hearing details about what the heck's going on down there, especially in higher ed
Sadly, I wish I could.
Im afraid your fellow americans of the republican persuasion are too far gone. By now you live in a religious state, there is no separation of powers. I feel very sorry for you and your students :(
If the DNC wasnt such a corrupt group of shills we probably never even would have had a Trump presidency. I wonder who they will force on us next time as the alternative to whichever monster the gop nominates. They are counting on us voting for "maintain the corrupt status quo" and "make things actively worse", which is of course an easy decision. But the gop candidates are good at finding the least educated and most gullible people in the country and giving them something to rally behind
How did he win re-election in Florida??
For Greene to embarrass herself, she'd have to understand the concept of Shame which the whole GOP threw out ages ago.
Yup.
True
Damn you beat me to it :) Can't shame the shameless
GOP: What is shame? Is it one of the deadly sins?
and to possess shame you must first have honor so yeah, ages ago.
Marje was SO confident and sassy with her nonsensical response it's amazing her ego/head didnt explode
FOR FIVE BILLION DOLLARS THAT BETTER BE AN IVY LEAGUE MIDDLE SCHOOL THAT EXISTS IN HER MIND!
The book banning is by far one the most horrendous things Desantis has done to the education system. I grew up on books. My parents once freaked out because I went out to "play" as a child and they couldnt find me for hours. Truth is, I'd walked myself to the library, sat there and read through the new Animorphs.
I also read about many subjects well before I'd been exposed to them in other ways. Because I was allowed to read whatever I wanted pretty much, when I was 11 and bored and stuck at my aunts I found her copy of romance novels. I picked one up and read it, including a scene in which the heroine is raped. I had no concept of rape, but I have to say, of all the ways to be exposed this had to be easily the least scarring. I knew it was wrong, obviously, because it hurt the main character, and I felt bad for her. I had questions, but over all I came out of it knowing that rape was a crime, that people who are raped deserved empathy, and that you should never, ever force someone to "love" you (I was 11).
Of course, that's exactly WHY Desantis takes such issue with books. They can introduce you to new subjects, good or bad, and help teach you empathy and morals. Not only that, but critical thinking skills are strengthened by reading. How dare they have books with gay characters that may cause children to empathize with LGBTQ individuals! How dare they nuture a child's ability to think critiyally and form their own opinions, their own moral compass!? These things can't be allowed!
Children should have access to all sorts of books, even ones we disagree with. Yes, some should come with context, but thats what annotations and classes are for, but we do far more damage to children when we "protect" them from books than we do good.
♥️ this. Thank you.
Amen!!!! ❤❤
Nicely written. Your ability to communicate clearly benefited from extensive reading. 😉 Of a variety of writing styles and genres.👍👍
Precisely. It's also what underfunding and defunding public schools is all about.
Nah, he topped himself when he decided to destroy New College. He is a man who truly loves ignorance.
I remember when I was a little kid and got my first library card. Before computers those books opened up the whole world to me. I feel so sorry for those kids today.
Same!❤
So true! I read books all the time as a child. It helped me to see what the world was about beyond me home.
I totally agree. As a child with undiagnosed autism who was being raised in a horribly dysfunctional family, books were my only escape. Every day I could I was at our tiny local library, checking out the limit of 10 books at a time. I barely slept, and every waking moment I was buried in books. The republicans who are in support of banning books are truly disgusting, and they obviously have no idea how much they are taking from children. More accurately, on second thought, they just don’t care what they’re taking from children.
@@summertimedesigns the children will take what they give them. That’s their mindset. Sickening
Hi Marc. I hear you. I still have a library card. In fact, I have 3 of them now that I'm older. One for each city in my area. If i can't find a book in one city, I go to another. I absolutely love the smell of books.
The fact that any of these insane people are in charge of anything leeds me to believe we are in a simulation and some teenager is laughing hysterically at all his/her sane characters losing our minds in our utter disgust and disbelief. Seriously this can’t be real.
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@nyreggie That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@bjoe631 You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
Wow I'm a bit perplexed you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended.
@@susanhaynes679 This is the Fourth time I'm seeing someone talking about Mr Gary as there are lot of testimonies about him, do you know him ? if yes , did you invest with him ?
If a single school got that much funding, they would be thrilled they can actually pay their teachers a livable wage. The cafeterias would provide filet mignon instead of caramelized cardboard. And textbooks would have a publishing date from this century. Also CRT is not an elementary school program, its a college elective. But you can't tell that to MTG who would not be able to pass a third grade curriculum even if all the answers were provided to her and all she had to do was sign her name.
How the hell hare people programing computer monitors from the 90s in elementary school?
And, CTR isn't "racist" ... Greene is talking out of her butt.
“Look, never mind signing your name, just put an ‘X’.”
“What’s an ‘X’?”
The only CRT in schools is ancient televisions and computer monitors.
The terrifying thing is that I think Republicans believe American History taught in schools is "Critical Race Theory" because we learn about slavery and the genocide of Native Americans. Under GOP fascism (and that is EXACTLY what this is) they want to erase history.
What is Marjorie Traitor Greene doing with her committee assignments? Asking about Drag Queen Story Hour...Let that sink in for a second. 🤦🏿♂️🙅🏻♀️
To be fair, the Republicans are giving her a fair chance to show the world why the Democrats were right in removing her from any committees. At least, that's how they should spin it otherwise they should just come right out and admit that they are a bunch of dumb***s.
Like she said she'd do when she was campaigning to keep her seat. Oh wait....
🤪🙄 she is so damn dumb. I mean, really. Who would believe $1.5B would go to one school for ANY purpose??!!!
The Jewish space laser woman is probably looking for hair and makeup tips from the drag queens, Lord knows she needs help.
She wants to be a man and hates herself for it. According to Carl Jung what we hate most about others is what we hate most about ourselves. That tracks with Manjorie
This guy loves his job and its great to see him crack himself up.
Another classic. Thanks to you Seth, and especially your writers and editors.
Every day I ask myself “How can this be real? How can these people be taken seriously?”
April fools
You are in america and the stupids win every day! The movie Idiocracy was not fiction it was a documentation!
Just take a single minute and listen to the people who actually do take them seriously.......unbelievable really!
You are not alone !
Because when natural born toxic high-school dropouts see libs be confused about the genuinely abhorrent behavior of these morons, they find it hilarious and decide to participate in the gaslighting. For the sake of spite and spite alone.
Either that or they're literally so stupid, they believe anything scary they're told.
When I went to culinary school almost 20 years ago they showed us that induction burners are just as good as has ones and they were right. Back then they were really expensive but that’s not the case anymore. Plus the stove itself never gets hot
As a librarian, the censorship infuriates me, but it killed me that MTG thinks libraries spent $16k on “Drag Queen Story Hour.” My entire year budget for programs in my department is less than $3k. Imagine blowing more than 5x that on A SINGLE program 🤡
LOL it's basically training for when they go to congress. :P
Or spending $5.1 billion on a single elementary school class. She also thinks 9/11 didn't happen.
Agreed. To joke that the library was "out of books" was misleading. They aren't out of books, the books were stripped off the shelves until some government officials can review them for banned subject matter. It's offensive to the utmost degree.
DeSantis is a Nazi
If only.
Seth calling Donald J. Trump a “dick head” on national television is SOLID GOLD!!!
🤘🏼😃
Absolutely brilliant, Seth! Top form.
In my high school (Texas), we had some book banning years ago, and books that were banned were segregated in the library, and hidden behind a white sheet with a sign on it "Banned books, do not look here." And if you took a banned book to the librarian, she would say "we aren't allowed to loan that book out, but since we don't have it, we wouldn't know if it went missing. Bring it back so others can read it."
So yeah, the banned section saw action, and worked as well or better than the non-banned section, and no books were denied to us.
Never challenge a librarian when it comes to free speech. I bet that empty library was empty because the rules on content were so vague, everything could count, so, rather than leaving in the obvious OK books, they took everything out, so show there are no books under censorship.
“Never challenge a librarian when it comes to free speech.” I love that. #WordsToLiveBy
Awesome story! Kinda reminds me of Harry Potter, when Umbridge banned the magazine that Harry gave his exclusive interview in .. and the result was that every student had read the article. Because it was banned. I loved that part.
Ooh ooh what was on it? Public library or school library?
Oh, wonderful, let’s hope a ton of librarians read this post and follow suit!
Your librarian was a legend!
4 years of April's Fools with D. T'Rump in office.
In my opinion the Real Fools are the people who vote for Trump .
It is genuinely stunning to watch Trump talk. Literally every single word is the total opposite of the truth, and he doesn't even blink.
It's called projecting and it's disgusting he called traitorous insurrectionists...patriots.
This is one of the best spots I've seen on this show. Kudos!
Ron DeSantis is where charisma and intelligence go to die.
Was this guy ever okay?
And Trump is the crypt where they’re laid to rest
As an independent, I really want to know how much worse he would be in the office today than the idiot that is there right now.
@@mkendall8393 Explain in what way Biden has been ”an idiot”
I will definitely watch a debate between him and 45. It will be a hoot and, Ronny might even cry.
she sat on the house floor in congress and stated as fact with a sincere straight face that $5.1 BILLION in federal money was sent to and spent by an elementary school in illinois.
GEORGIA, ARE YOU LISTENING?!?
Schools falling apart, 5.1 billion? Probably to private rich Schools.
Unfortunately the GA 14th district just don't care
Let's say it was (I don't believe it, but let's say). If it went to a predominantly white school, especially a private one, and they were called on it, I bet she'd try to justify it.
You really have to wonder about the average IQ of the voters in MTG's district.
@@purplerangers6245 it's more bizarre than that, sir. MTG said that 5.1 BILLION dollars was given to ONE elementary school! Dear GOD! Is anyone in GA listening to her...and thinking about what's happening??? FATHER protect us, please! This country that I love is in crisis mode!
Seth always delivers the laughs. You can set your watch by him, he's so consistent.
One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

Correction: embarrassment is a personal emotion and Greene doesn’t get that one
I think it requires a shred of shame. So, no. No she doesn’t. 👍
if only greed was an emotion...
No she doesn't.
to be embarrassed one has to have a sense of shame, a condition which she appears to be delightfully unburdened of
She is unburned by much. Shame, honesty, empathy, intelligence,etc. Thankfully clear vision of the future is also one. Her own party is using her and she is unaware.
I live for Seth cracking up at himself!!
Get people mad over something absurd so that you can get away with something worse and have everybody shrug.
EXACTLY !
trumps campaign strategy, governing model, and marriage vows.
💯
That about sums it up...
Republicans are making sure that when they're all finally pointing guns at one another, at least no one can say it's a "Muslim standoff".
I'm normally able to gloss past the bull$#!t that MTG spouts, but I legitimately laughed out loud when she said one school got $5.1 Billion. In Illinois, no less. I don't exactly know where she gets her facts, but I think she should make sure all the knobs on her gas stove are turned off, because I think the fumes are getting to her.
MTG is a gas leaking knob
Did you know people used to put their kids under the pilot light to make them go to sleep? Maybe MTG was one of those kids.
Gangrene spews her poison no problem if its all nonsense, not her problem!!
I'd highly doubt the entirety of Illinois got 5.1 billion, forget just one school. Ffs....
Truly Excellent Seth!!! ❤️
In my honest opinion, besides John Oliver, NO ONE one late night television is touching Seth Myers!! I've re-watched these segments over and over, and the way he's evolved the past two years is simply amazing, and his ability to move his audience with the slightest innuendo is second to none. I love everything about this show, and I think it's high time he wins an Emmy, he certainly deserves it
agreed
I spat out my juice in laughter when Green said 5 billion to one school. I was expecting her to say 5 million, after I heard the 5 but the billion is just comedy gold.
5 million would be an incredible amount as well.
Wow that woman's nuts!
She's been listening to Dr. Evil, who is mulling running for president as a Republican.
The absolute condescension she said it with contributes, I think. That woman is mentally deranged, no two ways about it. She needs a lot of help but instead people decided putting her in charge of politics makes more sense. It's fucked beyond belief.
Schools barely even get $500
Thanks!!! You make me able to digest this madness. Can’t believe this is what the Republican Party has sunk to
It's been that way...😔😔😔
Ya mean after Watergate, Iran contra, and trying to overthrow the government....it's more like they sunk to a low after Eisenhower and just stayed there
The party does not have a unified platform and hasn't for years. Hence the tossing things at the wall to see what sticks approach to governing and policy.
It's been a long time coming. Trump just showed them that they don't have to hide their shittiness.
What do you mean sunk too? Its always done this.
Lmao remember when they were losing their mind over cat in the hat being canceled 😂😂😂
I knew Seth was going to use that "April Fools Day" quote three times.
Schools spending billions of dollars? With what budget?
it´s all Soros space laser money ; )
Not just schools. She said "an elementary school" received $5.1 Billion for equity and diversity.
What an idiot.
I'm going out on a limb to say one that doesn't exist.
4 words ; pot cookie bake sale
@@rohypnotist6263 oh yeah, I forgot about the pot cookie bake sales, bringing in billions.
It blows my mind that the guy she’s questioning doesn’t question her back. I’d at the very least make a statement saying I’ve never heard of 1 school receiving 5 billion dollars. And I’d like to know what school it was and watch her struggle to answer.
I expect he's trying to appear as neutral as possible in anything he says, because he knows that other people who have attracted the attention of the MAGA nuts after Carlson or some other gurning baboon accused them of being disrespectful to a Congressional favourite have had thugs and loons driving past their houses shooting into their lawn and posting on Tiktok the names of the schools their kids go to.
Me too. I'd start with "Was that billion with a b?" To make it clear that that is ludicrous.
my daughter the school teacher is saying "Where is this school that gets FIVE BILLION DOLLARS??"
I would not have been that nice. I would have responded, that is not true and impossible to be true. It must have been the internet making you believe things again.
Eileen. Hi. My view is that Green thing's statement was so blidingly absurd and non sensical that this poor guy went into sideration mode. He wrongly thought that he was dealing with an actual question put by a real person, in a normal debate. Green is a psychological pervert who does not care about reality. Just her own sick agenda. Place the blame on whoever put that psycho (Green), in full knowledge of the moral damage she is able to inflict, in this role, not her victims. This kind of situation was predictable. Since the Rep's Congress majority is so thin, McCarthy can't afford to restore any kind of dignified order in his ranks for the time being. Same issue with De Santos. This is not over. So, if you care and if you can, please remain vigilant. This evil is not over. Yet. Good night and good luck.
I love it so much when Seth breaks character and giggles furiously 😀
One of the best closer looks I have ever seen
Love how Seth went straight to the point of MTG's lack of logic on one school getting billions of dollars & why it would never happen.
Thing is, a very quick google search says that for Financial Year 2023, the US Department of Education in it's entirety has been allocated $89.76Bn. So to think or believe that any one school, is getting even $1Bn let alone 5, you'd have to be still in need of the full range of services that the US Department of Education provides...
@@MrWhodini22 The department of Education doesn't provide elephant tranquilizers, though, and that's what she really needs.
Man every time I read MTG my first thought is still Magic The Gathering.
The Greene Goblin had hundreds of thousands of Covid relief forgiven. A Dem needs to stand up in the house every time she claims relief money went places is never should have, and use her as the perfect example of where that money should NEVER have gone.
Anyone watching GOP in past three decades know that they don’t tell anything about their manifesto. They don’t even talk about what they do in legislature until the consequences of their actions precipitate. Yet American friends keep voting for them as if they are suffering from Stockholm syndrome.
Today in Florida: "They're coming for your gas stoves! We can't let the government control what you have access to! Now give us your books."
And your women's bodies. We get to tell them what they have to do.
She’s like Ron Burgundy, she will read anything on the Teleprompter.
Excellent point that the people "talking" about other people cancelling culture are doing it themselves bigtime.
Taylor Greene probably believes that she did really well in that performance, she used real words and made sentences out of them. The fact that the sentences made no sense would not register with her at all.
Taylor is not part of her last name. She uses her middle name to fool people into thinking she has a double-barreled surname, so she comes across less like the yokel she is.
This women is a racist ignorant uneducated person that should never been put in office. Her only claim to fame is she’s arrogant, loud and ignorant all at the same time! She’s an embarrassment to the rest of the women in the USA and in the World. But that’s what was these Maga Republican’s wanted; a dumb person to throw out anything absurd after Trump’s ignorant statements before the politician’s took a chance at it!
Does she know what a sentence is?
Cognitive dissonance is a real thing, you will likely find that same clip shown on right-wing channels with it framed as ' why can't the Comptroller General answer why an elementary school in Illinois got 5.1b$ to teach CRT'
Whoever said there are no stupid questions have never heard Republicans asking questions in these Congressional committees.
How anyone sane can take these people seriously is beyond me.
So true about the hand gestures and the guilty using them. I thought it was a weird thing to pick up and then to mimic it is beyond odd. Mental health checks desperately needed in Florida.
Watching this show during the pandemic helped me so very much. Thank you, Seth.
10:05 I was having a great time burying my head in my hand and chortling over the stupidity of it all until I saw the headline, 'Hide your books,' and got chills from head to toe. Literally. I've never had that happened before, just a shiver that started behind my ears and shot down my entire body.
I read Fahrenheit 451 in high school and thought it was interesting how many things Bradbury predicted--we're pretty much to the point of mechanical hound police dogs and wall-sized televisions. But I thought, "At least we'll never ban reading, that's way too crazy." And now here I am, suddenly shivering from the whiplash of a funny comedy show crashing into sudden, sheer dread for the future.
So that's cool. I never have to wonder now how characters end up in seemingly farfetched dystopian futures. Neat.
I hated that book but it made a point
Authors and such are the prophets of the future.
I read Fahrenheit 451 last year as an adult. When I realized the trend of censoring books was still going strong, I started reading the kinds of classics and recommended literature that's often presented in high school settings. And I highly suggest everyone do it.
So read these books. Remember them. And when things start to take a turn for the worse, never forget them. Your Fahrenheit 451, your Huckleberry Finn and To Kill a Mockingbird. Farewell to Manzanar and Of Mice and Men. Go to your library and read, because they're part of history.
Careful, Fahrenheit 51 is a woke liberal fascist socialism book that teaches your family how to be gay trans antifa by cutting off their own private parts. So Desantis will make sure such pornography isn't poisoning young minds.
@@Iffondrel Childhood's End, Gate of Worlds are also good.
I feel like Trump is mistaking April Fool’s Day with Opposite Day which is a little rich considering every day we woke up when he was president felt like Opposite Day.
EXACTLY what i thought. seth better bring this up on corrections!!
I'm not sure, who else would know April Fool's Day better than the biggest fool in American history.
It's kind of like when Alanis Morrissette wrote a song called "Ironic", where most of the lyrics were about coincidences, which actually made the song ironic. Trump playing an April Fool's Day joke on January 28th really is the stuff of genius.
It was a Groundhog Day nightmare every damn day...
cody joe biden played the biggest april day on you dumbass sheep lmao
I love when Seth made the Stefan hands teepee to the mouth motion. That's true love
LOVE when Seth goes off on his Orange Blob 🤡 impressions!
Good days, bad days, average days, there’s always my « A closer look » moment during which nothing else matters!
Seth laughing at bis own joke is everything! 🤪😊
He and his writers jokes!
That was so charming and sweet when he laughed and could not get serious again. I love this man so much!
Was he laughing? I can't tell, I'm laughing so hard I can barely hear his next line! 🤣 😅😂
I wish that they had reviewed the library books in the Elementary school I went to. I remember very vividly coming across two different books that depicted quite graphic rape scenes. Something that distresses me to this day.
Where did you go to school?
@@janeturner8043 R. M. Moore elementary in GA.
As always 👍👏 Bravo!
“…flightless birds not giving up on the dream…” set me up perfectly for “Florida is WOKE!” I’m laughing too hard😂😂😂😂
The echo of trump saying "April 1st," in the background, did it for me. 🤣🤣
@@terrancekayton007 w.c fields 😆 👍, groucho marx 😆👍,seth meyers 💩 👎
mr? seth meyers you ain't funny.
School Superintendent: We have billions?! Why didn’t anyone tell me?!
So much great continuity. 😊❤
Re-watching you because I miss you soooo much!!!!! Give the writers what they want. Bring late night back! I NEED YOU!!!!!
If we didn’t have Seth to help us laugh at the ignorance and stupidity of what’s going on I think we’d all be crying instead. I know I would. It makes me feel better to know others feel as I do.
Laughing at them for being stupid, laughing at them for thinking they can ban books, laughing at them for banning books. Laughing makes people minimise the problems until it's too late
@@robertcristi2008 I don't think we are minimizing it. Laughing is just a moment of relief in a horrible moment in our country's history.
We also have trevor noah and John Oliver and jordan klepper, yay!
Laugh through the pain.
Some of the best writing by this team ever. Absolutely genius funny delivery from Seth
Shows garbage
There should be a way to like the show twice. Maybe more.
@@pleasebeinteresting Your words don't actually mean anything. Is that a verb, posessive, an abbreviation, - or what?
@@Raina6465 I think Seth is a hack that relies on punch lines and 10 second clips , but to be fair what would you say was his funniest bit
@@pleasebeinteresting April fool
Very good show Seth.
Yes!!! Totally with the hand movements
Looking at an empty elementary school library made me realize the GOP weren't complaining about Dr. Seuss being canceled, they were prophesizing.
They always get the most outraged about the things they are either doing or will do.
To be fair, that one was on the publisher. Those books like And to Think that I Saw It on Mulbeerry Street, If I Ran the Zoo, and others were not selling (and they had a few racist images as well).
Roboto San, Fascists. The first thing they go for is the free press & books. Trump has been "grooming" the public for 8 years to hate the media, Santis picked up on the book bans.
@@andrewollmann304 That is true, and why the publisher choosing to cease printing unpopular books wasn't cancel culture. Deciding Green Eggs And Ham might be woke and taking it off the shelf, cancel culture.
GQP!
CORRECTION: Roombas don't turn around when they hit an unknown object. They keep repeatedly bumping into it at different angles trying to figure out the size of the unknown object and vacuum as close to its edges as possible before returning to the mapped path. ;)

Amen,I agree with you overwhelmingly.
Every night when I get ready for bed, I pop onto RUclips, and there’s Seth’s smiling face! First in my feed. 😊 Thank you for your show. Makes my day!
Same here … Seth’s the best. I know my depression is bad when he doesn’t make me laugh. 🌚✨💫
Haha!! Same! That's my exact routine also! & Immediately after Seth is Stephen Colbert 😀
Seriously would've gone crazy several years ago without those 2! 😊
(10:15) Marjorie Taylor Greene trying to be like Katie Porter and, um...failing miserably. 🤪🤣
"Like a Pigeon that stole a French fry" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣XD
He's got the fools part right.
"Get me out of bed before you leave leave, there you go, that part's done " 🤣
The side-by-side hand comparison is hypnotizing like an executive's desk toy.
you rock seth!!!
You ace it all the time, Seth.
It's really blowing my mind how absurd this country is getting. And maybe it's happening all over the world, but I can only say what I see around me and it's getting horribly absurd.
There IS an alarming number of countries that are shifting to the right, and a good handful of those leaders clearly followed the trump 'recipe' to the letter to get there. "Alt facts" my a$$, they're in an alternate reality.
It’s absurd to ban gas stoves….what kind of bullshit is that? It amazes me that people stand for banning simple appliances
No, it's not happening all over the world. US is in a category of its own.
No, it’s not happening all over the world, and definitely not in Canada. It’s being done by Republicans in the US and by the Taliban. Both groups have a lot in common.
Sweden is getting bits of it, being probably the most americanized (and one of the most digital) country in europe (if also being the opposite in some aspects), but the US is in a league of its own, and it's easier to see the developments here looking through the lens of it…
/the Sweden democrats party channel Riks, for example
5.1B to an elementary school!?! I'm gonna pull a Billy Madison and enroll. Imagine, steak and lobster at lunch hour, field trips on SpaceX.
I'm cryin
You can always tell when marjorie is lying because her eyes get super shifty. She always looks to the side right before she’s gonna tell a lie.
As someone who is socially anxious, I don't think that is why people know she's lying. I get awkward too when it comes to looking at people in their eyes, even when I have no reason to, or even when I'm trying to talk into a cameras. Also, some neurotypical people have that problem, even when they're not lying.
It's usually because her statements are so outrageous and far fetched, and not based on actual facts, that nobody believes her. Even if we were judging based on just a transcript of her statements, we know she's lying.
My entire State's Education Budget is 20 million. Last time she was under Oath she couldn't remember anything. Now she is an Education Budget expert and Expert on CRT in elementary schools.
I understood Critical Race Theory to be a part of a college curriculum. I don’t think it’s taught at the elementary level.
It is not. It's a college class and not even at very many colleges.
Its not. Its just an excuse to start censoring teaching children about slavery and the civil rights movement. Basically anything that contradicts what the Daughters of the Confederacy now Mothers for Liberty want taught about US HISTORY.
@@susanroe3367 It's a theory that may be taught in some college classes, but none of those classes would be required. There are hardly any requirements left in the current college curriculum.
critical race theory is simple. Jews and Blacks rule the World. Whites are punters and kickers in the NFL. they can't do real sports only golf and bowling. Fat folks games
“Buy gas stoves free of charge!” Am I missing something?
BUY - FREE OF CHARGE?! We aren’t WOKE. Have DeSatan in white, rubber boots playing a SqueezeBox!
hahahaha "But, RON! You're an Emu!" XD I'm dead
This segment had me cackling from Ron Celine Dion Santis to Avatar being funded by a school that received billions. Kudos to the writers and Seth!
Yeah, this was just a solid episode.
Ikr! The Celine Dion comment was golden 😂
Do you cackle like Cumala ??
@@savannah505 are you coo-coo for Trumpflakes?
@@lizardog Wow that question was so deep and shows such a high level of intelligence, you must be college indoctrinated.
DeSantis wearing those boots reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George refuses to take the timberlands off because they make him taller.
I'm up 2 inches in these babies!
😂😂😂😂😂😂 soooo true
@6:00 FINALLY, a humorous look at the spastic hand movement of most of our Talking Heads today
i love you so much seth!
