Jon Stewart delivered his longest-ever monologue—24 minutes, to be precise—throughout Monday’s episode of “The Daily Show” to tackle DOGE bro Elon Musk’s hypocrisy and President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance’s histrionic meltdown, which might derail potential ceasefire negotiations between Ukraine and Russia.
He began by inviting Musk—whose DOGE has acquired a number of criticism on “The Daily Show”—to be a visitor on the present.
“I will do it if the show airs unedited,” Musk wrote on X.
“The interview can be 15 minutes. Can be an hour, two hours. Whatever. “I’ll be honest, I don’t think this network makes any other programming. So we do whatever the hell we want as long as we wrap before the new season of South Park,” Stewart stated.
Musk subsequently referred to as Stewart a “propagandist” who “cannot be trusted.”
“The guy who custom made his own dark MAGA hat that he wears to opine in the Oval Office with the president, who he spent $270 million to elect, thinks I’m just too partisan,” Stewart retorted.

Stewart in contrast Trump’s actions to skilled wrestler John Cena’s surprising heel flip from the WWE Elimination Chamber occasion in Toronto on Saturday, mentioning the shame and destruction of Trump’s response to Russia’s conflict in Ukraine.
“But here we are. The end result of a scripted arc that culminates in America betraying its old alliance for the lure of a strongman partnership that carves up the world’s rich bounties and places classic democratic values behind transactional convenience,” Stewart stated.
“So say it with me, conspiracy theorists,” he continued. “By design, it’s a new world order.”
