“President Biden met with Pope Francis before the G20 summit. Biden, a Catholic, ended the three-hour meeting by saying ‘God love ya’ and gifted the pope a sentimental ‘challenge coin’, a historically collectible item which originated in the military. According to Biden, the coin included insignia of the 261st Signal Brigade unit in the Delaware army national guard, in which his late son, Beau Biden, served as a captain. You’ve gotta give it to Joe Biden, because it took everything in his power as an old man to not make that coin appear behind the pope’s ear.” —Trevor Noah
“That is the most unnecessary ‘God love ya’ in history. You don’t need to say ‘God love ya’ to the pope — he knows God loves him. He had dinner with him last night.” —Trevor Noah
“But I think the meeting was cool for him to see because it’s nice. Because even though these two men are some of the most powerful leaders in the world, when it comes down to it, they’re just a couple of old guys hanging out, showing off their coin collection, talking about alcohol, making inappropriate ethnic jokes.” —Trevor Noah
“I’m sorry, guys, but how is climate change the most pressing issue facing humanity but then your plan is to do something about it by more or less 2050? Like that’s a pretty good sign something isn’t going to actually get done. If somebody says, ‘Yeah, yeah, we should hang out sometime. What’s your schedule looking like in 2050?’ You’ll never see the person again.” —Trevor Noah

“A magisterial collection. A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night
of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
