All that talk about launching missiles, it was right in front of us the whole time (You’re living your dreams!)

“In England there is some dissatisfaction with Rishi Sunak as prime minister – not because of Sunak’s policies or immense personal wealth, but his skin color. As one caller to a British radio show put it: ‘Could you imagine me becoming the prime minister of Pakistan? Or Saudi Arabia? No! These things matter … Eighty-five per cent of English people are, yes, white English people. And they want to see a prime minister who reflects them.’ This guy has a good point – could you imagine if white English people wanted to rule countries where no one looked like them? That would never happen! Can you imagine that world? It’s funny how racists always say, ‘oh, colonization was fine, it was just business.’ Until they feel like they’re being colonized. Then they’re like, ‘something needs to be done!’ British racists are looking at this all wrong. This could be a good thing for you people. After 400 years you’ll get to legitimately blame a brown person for your country’s problems. You’re living your dreams!” —Trevor Noah

“We relished the heckling delivered to the most repulsive man in America, Texas senator Ted Cruz, when he attended an American League championship game between the Yankees and the Houston Astros. The Astros won and will now face the Phillies in the World Series. You know, you would think Ted Cruz would be unwelcome in a place like the Bronx, and if you did think that, you would be correct. There are videos of fans shouting numerous expletives at Cruz. So even though they lost the game, I think New York won the battle last night.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“Donald Trump, sat for more than 20 interviews with journalist Bob Woodward over the course of 2020. Woodward previewed some of the tapes that he plans to release, which included audio of Trump waxing poetic about the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un. ‘You meet somebody, and you have a good chemistry, and there is a lot of truth to it,’ Trump said. ‘You meet a woman. In one second, you know whether or not it’s all going to happen. OK? We had very good chemistry together.’ Wait a minute … did Donald Trump have sex with Kim Jong-un? I didn’t even know they were dating! All that talk about launching missiles, it was right in front of us the whole time.” —Jimmy Kimmel

and Orwell’s 1984.”
