Paris Protests Erupt Over High Fuel Costs & Trump Cuts Diesel Deal with Russia | David Corn
Summary
Jon Stewart satirizes J.D. Vance’s dehumanizing rhetoric toward immigrants and his blame of "Western liberals" for French riots, contrasting this with the reality of domestic unrest. The episode shifts to a detailed analysis of Trump’s contradictory energy policies, including waiving sanctions on Russian diesel while simultaneously restricting Ukraine’s Starlink access. Stewart interviews David Corn, author of *How Russia Won*, who argues that Trump’s personal obsession with Putin and desire for authoritarian power are driving a collapse of the post-WWII liberal world order.
