SCOTUS Deals Blow to Voting Rights Act & Trump Deals Blow to NASA Chief’s Ears | RZA

The Daily Show: Ears Edition

Josh Johnson dives into the Iran peace talks that Trump is holding “telephonically,” the president bullies NASA chief Jared Isaacman for his ears, and Republicans claim racism is over after the Supreme Court effectively guts the Voting Rights Act. Plus, Ronny Chieng dishes on how Republicans in Congress are celebrating while minorities are panicking.

Jordan Klepper Anal-a-Zones California's pivotal governor race: Eric Swalwell's scandal-plagued resignation threw a wrench in the state's free-for-all "jungle primary," and Democrats are scrambling with a roster of rizzless candidates, from "Love Actually"-parodying Tom Steyer to hologram-flexing Matt Mahan. Meanwhile, Republican voters face a choice between long-talking British expat Steve Hilton and firebrand Sheriff Chad Bianco, whose vibe is kind of "all the Village People at once."

Legendary rapper and founder of The Wu-Tang Clan RZA joins Josh to discuss his new film, “One Spoon of Chocolate,” which he wrote, produced, and directed. RZA describes the project’s evolution since he started working on it in 2012, how his filmmaking process is not unlike his songwriting process of sampling from different sources of inspiration, and why directing his actors in uncomfortable depictions of racism was necessary to deliver the film’s overall message of equality.
