The Daily Show: June 17, 2026 - John Early

Overview

Jordan Klepper dives into how JD Vance's book tour exposes his lack of rizz, Scottish World Cup fans drink Boston bone dry, and Trump blames his pitiful Iran deal on… Obama? Plus, Ronny Chieng encourages people to keep their complaints about the Iran agreement to themselves to avoid Trump restarting the war. As Trump hits 80 and America counts down to the big 250, the president organized a patriotic event worthy of any 10-year-old: a badass UFC fight at the White House, complete with dirt bikes! Jordan went to Washington D.C. to take in the "hillbilly elegyness" of it all, and to chat with attendees who were stoked to witness the American Dream of two sweaty guys fighting on the White House lawn. Writer, director and actor John Early talks to Jordan about 80s TV movies, food influencers, and his new film, "Maddie's Secret".
