Even Frankenstein's monster had tight bolts, as did Herman Munster! 🤣

If this had been a Spirit flight, the passengers would be charged an additional 'Fresh Air Fee'.

My son, his wife and my 4-year-old granddaughter were on that plane flying the same route just a week before Christmas. I know stuff happens but to hear they were warned about problems with that plane earlier is scary and shocking.

Hats off to Judge Pan. She did a bigly powerful job challenging TFG’s lawyer.

To think that there are people who believe that we shouldn't have government inspectors, investigations or even standards to oversee this type of thing a reduce the chance of it happening and would rather we trust our safety soley to the market. Pure Capitalists really scare me. They truly lack empathy.

If this argument goes through, I would suggest sending Seal Team Six to Congress to remove a few... obstructions to democracy.

[teresapaskell]

That cracked me up. ‘The best an embalmer could do on a budget’. That applies to old Mitch too😂

[konradyearwood]

Without doubt that Gregory Peck impression was top notch.

Love how the big thing news outlets are talking about with the plane fiasco is the stockholders. Yeah, lives being in jeopardy is one thing, the stock value is another! 😂

Trump claiming presidential immunity reminded me of that scene from Lethal Weapon 2 where the diplomat screams "DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY" right before he was shot by Danny Glover's character.

[joijencuyah]

Stephen, you help me hear the grave news of the day & not just cry. Shocking as it is, you help make it more palatable & bearable. Thank you for the incredible service you do on so many levels! You are a true hero! ❤

[landonewts]

So not “I didn’t do it, ” but “Neener neener, I was President, you can’t catch me!” Brilliant legal strategy, and not at ALL incriminating.

[bobknull]

That joke about crashing over a city hits home considering that the missing plane part was found in a Portland back yard.

[kathcasey]

Loved your rendition of Atticus Finch from, "To Kill A Mockingbird", Stephen. It was spot on!

[TheKrispyfort]

Every step Lou takes.
Every move Lou makes.
Every breath Lou takes
Trump'll be watching Lou

[Jjanne]

Total immunity? Sooo, basically a monarchy.

[garfield]

Yes Stephen encourage voting. We need all voices shouting this. PLEASE!!!

[MolliGelf]

Absolutely beautiful Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch impression!

[sararaven]

I love that Trump's fundraising email actually said he "will reportedly be forced off the campaign trail" as though he's unaware of this but read about it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[RG-nwkr]

Yoooo, he wildAF for the Mitch McConnell joke🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭
