Jon Stewart tackles the headlines as Paris erupts in protest while President Macron attends a Celine Dion concert, Trump strengthens ties with Vladimir Putin through a multibillion-dollar diesel deal, and a new conflict sends gas prices soaring. Stewart also investigates why Ukraine is struggling to access Elon Musk’s Starlink service, calling on key players for answers. Later, bestselling author and Mother Jones Washington bureau chief David Corn joins Stewart to discuss his book, How Russia Won: Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and the Fight for America. Corn examines Trump’s long-standing admiration for Putin, how that relationship shaped the diesel deal despite the war in Ukraine, Putin’s appeal as a symbol of wealth and unchecked power, and Trump’s embrace of a “big f**ks small” worldview.
