The Daily Show: June 2, 2026 - Dr. Thomas Mather
Overview
Michael Kosta covers Trump’s impressive losing streak: his name is being removed from the Kennedy Center, headliners are dropping out of his America 250 concert, Congress is blocking his slush fund, and he still hasn’t delivered on a peace deal with Iran. Plus, Ivanka and Jared buy a private Mediterranean island for about $1.5 billion. Desi Lydic examines two scandal-hit midterm contenders: Maine Democrat Graham Platner faces criticism for sexting other women while married, and Colorado MAGA candidate Victor Marx is under scrutiny for dubious claims about calling in an airstrike against ISIS as a civilian, performing exorcisms by phone, and possibly killing people. Dr. Thomas Mather, aka The TickGuy, joins Michael to share how to stay safe from ticks outdoors year-round.
