DOGE Protestors Turn on Tesla & Astronauts Make It Home | Anthony Carrigan

We were getting where we couldn't pay the bill.

PG&E asked customers about their biggest concerns so we could address them one by one.

That's terrifying.

That's fair.

Joe, Regional Vice President, PG&E.

We have to run the business in a way that keeps people safe, but it starts driving costs down.

I would love to see that.

We're on our way.

I hope so.

PG&E electricity rates are now lower than they were last year.

Hear what other customers have to say and what PG&E is doing about it at pge.com slash open dash lines. Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield in Bone Valley Season 1.
Every time I hear about my dad is, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil.
I was becoming the bridge between Jeremy Scott and the son he'd never known. At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

We got so much to talk about tonight. Elon Musk wants you to stop bullying his cars.
Michael Kosta finds out the meaning of St. Patrick's Day.
And those astronauts finally return to Earth. And boy, did they have a lot of unread emails.
So, let's get into headlines. First, first, some big breaking news.

Donald Trump has released 64,000 pages of long, secret JFK files.

So, we can finally learn who really killed JFK.

And guess what? Turns out it was heart disease.

Yeah, the man loved his French fries.

But speaking of a once-in-a-generation

charming sex machine, Elon Musk.

Now, oh, baby.

I love it. I love it.

Now, he's the world's richest man,

the leader of Doge,

and guy who thinks Sauron is the

hero of the story. And say what you want about Elon, but he certainly has his fans.
I love Tesla. I'm not saying Donald Trump is racist, but that man does love a hard R.
But if you step outside of the White House,

you'll find a backlash brewing against the founder of Tesla. Lawmakers across the country facing anger and outrage from their constituents at town hall meetings.
And the primary source of the blowback is Elon Musk. What are you doing to stop the activities of unelected and unconfirmed Elon Musk?

Elon Musk does have a security plan.

We need to find out what Elon Musk is doing and how we can stop it.

Elon Musk, Elon Musk has conflicts of interest out the wazoo.

I support Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency. Oh, tough crowd.
You know you're in trouble when you even pissed off the kid with the cherry eight ball sweater. It's like the chillest sweater there is.
These crowds have been so angry towards these congressmen, some of them have decided to stop holding town halls altogether, which feels a little thin-skinned, considering this is basically the same kind of vitriol that Applebee's bartender gets when the white wine's not filled to the brim. Again, Kyle, I'm sorry I flew off the handle.
Papa needs his Pinot Grigio. And some people are not content to just scream about Elon in a high school gym.
They're taking to the streets or the parking lots. Tonight, the FBI and ATF now investigating multiple cases of possible arson targeting Teslas and cyber trucks.
This dramatic video shows multiple cars in flames. Police say the attacker used Molotov cocktails.
It's the latest in more than a dozen instances of arson and vandalism targeting Tesla. The same suspect shot more Teslas with a gun.
Tesla Cybertrucks were set on fire in Kansas City, and earlier this month, shots fired at a Tesla dealership in Oregon. Cybertrucks on fire in Seattle.
Wow, you guys like petty acts of domestic terrorism, huh? Cool. Wow.
Okay, let me just say, nobody should be breaking the law and blowing up Teslas. Especially because if you just wait a few minutes, they'll probably do it by themselves.
And in case you're wondering why people might do this, some have been leaving helpful messages.

This is what Tesla employees in Encinitas saw when they arrived to work today.

The vandalism is too graphic to show in its entirety.

We blurred out the swastika on this white Tesla, as well as the F word on two different windows in front of the dealership.

Nazi and scum were written as well.

Uh, I think you, you might've wanted to blur out a little more there because I, now it just looks like they just wrote. Obviously, Elon has a lot of kids, so he's got a lot of, you know, you don't have to be so overt.
The point is there's a ton of rage directed at Elon right now, which is why last night he went on Sean Hannity and made the case for his victimhood. Bullets are being fired.
Charging stations are put ablaze. Tesla's are being put ablaze.
What have you done that warrants this? Because I see nothing that you have done except help our country. Yeah, I mean, it's really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of really hatred and violence and violence from the left tesla is a peaceful company we've never done anything harmful um i've never done anything awful i've only done productive things i shouldn't have to explain this to elon but it's not about the teslas teslas are actually pretty cool as a car it's got that all glass thing going on kind of like a a popemobile that it's got door handles that are hard to find which is what everybody wants in a door handle uh everything in the car is electronic so if it malfunctions you just drown in it you know it's like a free coffin it's cool it's them credit.
I don't think people, though, are mad at you because of the Teslas, Elon. If I were to hazard a guess about why, they'd be mad.
It might be because in the last several weeks, you fired tens of thousands of federal workers. You made cuts to veterans care, life-saving foreign aid, and food banks.
You canceled important medical research, sometimes so abruptly that this happened. Clinical trials funded by USAID, medical experiments have been stopped midstream.
Some people have medical devices still in their bodies because the trials were abruptly stopped. Yeah, people might get a little upset if you stop their medical trial halfway through them.
Imagine you had to stop getting your malaria medication or going home with half a butt lift. Imagine it! Imagine it! You'll never buy pants off the rack again.
Or here, here's another guess. Maybe people are mad at you because you don't seem to know what the f*** you're doing.
I'm guessing. I'm guessing.
I'm guessing. I'm guessing.
You fired aviation safety staff, then you had to hire them back. You fired nuclear safety inspectors, then you had to hire them back.
You cut funding for Ebola prevention and then said, oopsie. One of the things we absolutely canceled very briefly was Ebola.
It was Ebola prevention. I think we all want Ebola prevention.
Yeah, I think we do. And if someone just accidentally cut it, I think we'd all be pretty mad.
I might even Banksy some third Reich ejaculates. Look, I could come up with more reasons, but let's be honest.
Elon knows why people are mad at him. We know he's not as smart as he pretends to be, but he's also not as dumb as he's pretending to be right now.
And when he goes on Sean Hannity to complain about why people hate him, he's just proving that the troll king of the Internet can't handle the consequences of the real world. But you know what? You know what, Elon? You know what? No.
Here, Elon, Elon, if you genuinely want people to not hate you, you could focus on the things you are good at. I mean, you did get those astronauts back.
It was a beautiful moment. The astronaut pair who faced a prolonged stay in space, nine months versus a planned one week, are back on Earth tonight.
It was a team effort between the Trump administration, Elon Musk in space. Nine months versus a planned one week are back on Earth tonight.

It was a team effort between the Trump administration, Elon Musk and SpaceX.

And how about this welcoming committee? Like we just mentioned, a pod of dolphins seen

swimming around as the astronauts waited to be escorted out of the SpaceX dragon capsule.

You know what? I think that's great. I have to I have to not be a hater for a second.
OK,

Elon brought them back safely from space after being stranded there for months, and dolphins even showed up to say hi. That is incredible.
I mean, I wish the dolphins hadn't welcomed them back with a Sieg Heil, but still, still. It's a beautiful moment for humanity.
Now, it was a joyous moment, but those astronauts were gone a long, long time. Thankfully, the good folks at NASA prepared a video to help them acclimate to the world they're coming back to.
Hello, astronauts, and welcome back to Earth. You got to see dolphins before they went extinct.
How cool is that? As you are flown back to the U.S., this video will reacclimate your mind on what you missed while you were in space. First, the Gulf of Mexico you landed in is now the Gulf of America.
But don't worry. The name change is symbolic.
We're not going to war with Mexico. We're going to war with Canada and Greenland, maybe Panama, also Mexico.
Oh, speaking of wars, when you left, it was Russia that invaded Ukraine. Now it's the other way around.
Don't worry about it. For now, just focus on resting.
And after you enter U.S. territory, your space capsule will face crippling steel tariffs, and you will be deported to an El Salvadoran prison, just until we're sure that you're not Venezuelan gang members.
And after your release in 2026, you will be honored at the White House, which is now run by Fox News anchors. Also, the anti-vaccine guy is now in charge of vaccines.
The anti-FBI guy is now in charge of the FBI. And the lady in charge of the WWE runs the education department, which is gone.
These great leaders will welcome you all back, except for astronaut Sonny Williams. See, when you left, you were a female astronaut, and now you're a DEI astronaut.
And also, you're fired. But don't worry, you'll find another job.
Although, just a heads up, the stock market is down and eggs are $400. But those are both good things, and also Joe Biden's fault.
At this point, you're probably wondering, when can NASA send me back up to space? Well, it probably can't. NASA just got doged,

which is a real sentence now. So from all of us here in America,

welcome to hell. Earth, welcome back to Earth.

When we come back, we honor the luck of the Irish.

Don't go away.

We were getting where we couldn't pay the bill.

Something unexpected happened after Jeremy Scott confessed to killing Michelle Schofield

in Bone Valley Season 1.

I just knew him as a kid.

Long, silent voices from his past came forward.

And he was just staring at me.

And they had secrets of their own to share.

Gilbert King, I'm the longer just telling the story. I was part of it.
Every time I hear about my dad, it's, oh, he's a killer. He's just straight evil.
I was becoming the bridge between a killer and the son he'd never known. If the cops and everything would have done their job properly,

my dad would have been in jail.

I would have never existed.

I never expected to find myself in this place.

Now, I need to tell you how I got here.

At the end of the day, I'm literally a son of a killer.

Bone Valley, Season 2.

Jeremy.

Jeremy, I want to tell you something.

Monday was St. Patrick's Day,

when Irish Americans honor their heritage with careful readings of the writings of James Joyce,

I'm going to go to The Daily Show. Monday was St.
Patrick's Day,

when Irish-Americans honor their heritage with careful readings of the writings of James Joyce,

group performances of traditional Irish music,

and a somber reflection of the beauty of the Celtic language.

But how do you celebrate being Irish in the Donald Trump era?

Michael Costa hit the streets to find out.

One of Trump's top priorities is getting rid of DEI. DEI would have ruined our country, and now it's dead.
Identity Months are dead. Some of the months that they're targeting, Black History Month, Pride Month, National Hispanic Heritage Month, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
But even though he hates celebrating these minority groups, for some reason there's one group he loves to celebrate, the Irish. Oh, I think the Irish love Trump.
We want the Irish with a tremendous amount of vote. They're great people.
And they voted for me in heavy numbers, so I like them even now. So I stopped by New York's St.
Paddy's Day Parade to see how Irish Trump supporters were celebrating their new status as Trump's BFFs. All right you here today? Come here to be with my friends and to show Trump that I support him.
Yeah, I guess I'm confused. Is this a Trump rally or is this an Irish parade? It's an Irish Trump rally.
Men in skirts? Trump is not gonna like that. Do you stand for DEI? No.
But we're here celebrating the minorities that are the Irish. Well, look.
I'm very confused. You know, back in the 1800s, the Irish were minorities.
They were coming overseas, you know, when they came across the ocean. I mean, they were discriminated against.
They signed up and fought for the Union in the Civil War. You can connect with how difficult it must have been for people to come over to the United States, be discriminated against, not be favored nations.
You can connect with that. Well, what about other people that are doing that now? They need to wait in line.
I had, in a former life, I had a foreign-born spouse. Bye! Kiss me, I'm Irish.
That shirt's DEI. Kisses should be merit-based.
Hey, look, I think celebrating Black History Month is good. I think celebrating MLK, you know, who fought for our civil rights is incredible.
I went up against the Band-Aids in New York City. I fought for our civil rights, is incredible.

I went up against the mandates in New York City.

I fought for my civil rights because I was being discriminated against for not getting vaccinated.

This guy was just like MLK, except he didn't take a shot from the government.

These Trump supporters also had a lot of other important observations.

When I went to school, we had welcome, we had shop. The kids don't have nothing anymore.
They don't have that. My father taught me how to put wires in, all that stuff.
These kids don't have it. You don't think dads are teaching kids how to put wires in anymore? No, not really.
But is that on the government or is that on the dad? I'd say it's the government. You think Trump knows how to put wires in? You think Trump put wires in here? I think he does.
You bet he does? He does. All right.
There you have it. As long as Trump teaches kids how to put wires back in, he and the Irish are building a friendship that will last a lifetime.
The EU was set up in order to take advantage of the United States. Including Ireland? Is Ireland taking advantage of the U.S.? Of course they are.

Well, that was quick.

Thank you, Michael.

We'll come back. Anthony Kerrigan will be joining me on the show.
Don't go away.

Welcome back to The Daily Show.

My guest tonight is an Emmy-nominated actor whose new film is called Death of a Unicorn.

Please welcome Anthony Kerrigan. Welcome, Anthony, welcome.
Thank you so much. Great to be here.
This Death of a Unicorn, they tell you what happens right there in the title. It's a bit of a spoiler in the title, it's true, but in a lot of ways it's your classic, you know, unicorn horror comedy.
Yeah, right? Just your run-of-the-mill, yeah, unicorn horror comedy. I was going to say, unicorns are real in this horror comedy.
Oh, they sure are. Did you find out, they didn't go into it in the movie, is the unicorn blood what keeps Paul Rudd's face so young and smooth? Oh my god.
That's been this entire, like, press campaign. It's like unicorn blood for Paul.
But, uh... No, I mean, no, truly, these things, I mean, because there were a lot of practical effects, which is, I think, what are people gonna, you know...
So they didn't use... They did use real unicorns.
Well, you know, they built them, you know. They built the unicorns.
They looked cool. They looked cool.
They looked like they were real, but they were huge in these massive set pieces that were just so cool to look at, and it's kind of a throwback to, like, Jim Henson in, like, 80s and 90s movies. Yeah.
Yeah, so it's so much fun. I feel like they move through the space almost like velociraptors.
They sure do. Yeah.
There's definitely some Jurassic Park moments to this. There was, although I wanted it to be a little bit more real.
Like, not that unicorns aren't real, but that if they were, RFK Jr. would be eating them, you know? Listen, it's still early in the year, so, like, who knows really what's going to happen.
You're silent for the majority of this. It's true, yes.
How do you prep to be a, to find the, are you looking in the mirror? Are you practicing responses? How do you find your silence? You know, funnily enough, it's pretty much just listening. What? It's just listening.
Say that again. I know, truly, it's just listening.
It's just a lot of showing. I mean, you know, you need to know all the beats.
You actually have to kind of know what's going on more because you don't have any lines to kind of fill things with,

fill the moments with.

So instead, you kind of have to be really paying attention,

listening, and knowing what's up.

So you can't just bullshit with words.

Well, I wouldn't go that far.

Trust me, it's a great tactic.

I use it often.

Totally.

You find so much in all the characters that you do.

I loved you on Barry as NoHoHank.

And, yeah, amazing.

Thank you.

Is it true that

you were only supposed to be in the first

episode and you were going to die at the end?

Yeah. Is that right? My character was supposed

to be killed off in the first episode.

And, yeah, like, my

character gets shot. Sorry, spoiler, from like eight years ago.
Yeah, come on, stream it, you guys. Catch up.
But, yeah, then Bill just decided, you know, after I was shot, you know, because it was in a car, he was just like, just open the car door and fall out. Really? So he opened a literal door for me to survive.
But what do you think, what was it? You guys just had a connection and it was like, oh, there's more here than just killing somebody in a car? I guess so. I don't know.
He just liked my goofy accent and what I was doing. You hide behind goofy accents.
I sure do. We're really kind of coming to the crux of it.
Yeah, you're not a Chechnyan gangster. No, no, which is a big surprise to a lot of people.
You even throw a Scottish accent in Death of a Unicorn? I sure did, yes, I sure did. I mean, I auditioned with it, and then it was, like, months until I got, you know, I got the call to come do it.
Only at which point I realized, oh, no, like, I have to now do a Scottish accent. Like, what am I going to do? What are you hiding from? Yeah, truly.
Yeah, just, I don't know. I'm from Massachusetts.
And maybe at some point, you know, yeah, I'll do the mass accent. I was going to say, that's a fun one to play around with.
Yeah, it sure is. Ben Affleck isn't creating some wild drama right now that you could sneak into? Probably.
Yeah, probably. You know, yeah.
You've also been working on the new Superman movie. That's right.
Right? Yes. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
You are Metamorpho, is that correct? Yeah. I play a character named Metamorpho, and I feel like I've already talked too much about the movie because it's so top secret.
Yeah. But honestly, it was such a blast to work on.
James Gunn is just a phenomenal director. And even though it was just this massive movie, it really did feel like really small and intimate and like we were doing something really special.
Had a lot of heart. Can you tell us what drew you to the character? What was it about Metamorpho that you wanted to play outside of the obvious paycheck? Yeah.
Yeah, there's that. That was pretty much it.
I think the, I try to find just kind of some level of pathos in whatever character I'm playing. Yeah.
Pathos. Pathos.
Pathos draws you to it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just trying to find the humanity in whatever person I'm playing.
That and an accent, you know? Yeah, you get to do it. Can you tell us right now, do you hide who you are in this movie with an accent?

No, but, like, there's still time to do ADR.

You know, there's still time to do looping.

Okay, so if hopefully the Superman universe

can get just a little bit more money,

I bet they can scratch it up,

and you could really add some new layers to it.

100%.

Awesome.

Well, Death of a Unicorn will be in theaters everywhere

March 28th, Anthony Kerrigan.

We're gonna take this one.
