Samantha Bee took late night by storm with her bare-knuckled coverage of the 2016 Presidential election, and she still has her watchful eye on Washington! At her editor’s request this reporter tuned in to FULL FRONTAL on the evening of Wednesday, July 26th to see what this Nasty Woman had to say.
“Every day at the White House is Take Your Daughter To Work Day!” Bee exclaimed in her opening comments. No kidding, we noticed! Nepotism is still a no-no–and everyone in the Trump family is lawyering up.
The rule of law is facing its own set of challenges. According to Ms. Bee, “We don’t make bullshit discriminatory laws on Twitter. That’s what Congress is for!” TOTALLY.
Tax cuts at the top will pay for themselves with growth! This old Republican myth is alive and well.
