a study found smoking marijuana can make men infertile, if you're going to have unprotected sex. get high first. captioning sponsored by comedy central >> stephen: welcome to the report. thathank you so much for joining us, ladies and gentlemen. >> stephen! stephen! >> stephen: thank you, ladies and gentlemen. i'm not surprised-- folks. i join you in your celebration.

i know where that good feeling is rooted. because, nation, once again, if you read the papers,un that once again, it is a great day for our country in that it is a terrible day for barack obama. he is facing a firestorm of criticism after trading five high-level taliban fighters for captured bowe bergdahl. it's a scandal some are calling berg-d-ghazi. so far, it's just me, but it's going to catch on. on tuesday, at the g7 summit in poland, the president defended his actions. >> let me just make a very simple point here, and that is regardless of the circumstances, whatever those circumstances may turn out to be, we still get an measure soldier back from captivity. period. >> stephen: you can't argue

with that. comma. or can you. question mark. of course, we want to get every american soldier back. because the tv has some questions. >> is he an american hero or a deserter? >> a member of his platoon says bergdahl left his own post ohis own volition, back in 2009. >> shortly before he walked off the base he wrote to his parents about his disillusionment with the military and his mission in afghanistan. >> hear that? this guy had grown disillusioned with the war in afghanistan. and there's only one wordinar-- 82% of americans. plus, should we be bringing this guy back when several of those who served with bergdahl charged that soldiers died searching for him? and i agree with anyone who says best way to honor their sacrifice is to never complete their mission. and now, we're also learning that bergdahl has a history of un-american behavior dating back

to his childhood in sun valley, idaho. >> well, he apparently was into ballet. >> at the age of 16, he started taking ballet lessons at a local studio. >> i didn't know until today that he took ballet. how long did he do that? >> he started taking ballet when he was about 17 and continued taking it until he was 22, 23. >> stephen: yes, long before bergdahl's time with the taliban militia, he spent years in the hand of another radical group, the sugarplum fairies. and fox news' dr. keith ablow knows what it means when a man does ballet. >> the fact that he was a dancer and a lifter-- not a weightlifter, but he would i guess lift up-- >> the ball rina. >> what does that mean? >> i think front and center on any stage is this guy's m.o., unless it doesn't feed him narcissistically. you can't give him a job unless you're going to tell him you're the star and we're going to keep you at a throttle of 12 out of

10. >> stephen: that's why he was disillusioned the mission in afghanistan-- it lacked the full-throttle intensity of the sun valley,ideo ballet school. just to recap-- deserter. endangered soldiers' lives. skipped around inatitis. aaaaand... i'm forgetting something. >> the father with the beard. >> stephen: dad, beard. dad beard. bad dad. baghdad. coincidence it's a different country, we mee doth think he beards too much. we'll have more on this story as information becomes available which i hope is never because right now i'm in the sweet spot between complete ignorance and righteous indignation. pretty great. information, the "new york times" is now reporting there were fixed so, matches leading up to the 2010 world cup, but i don't believe that sock ser fixed because nothing can fix

that game. this is the "spor-report." ( cheers and applause ) first, when it comes to international sport no one takes it more seriously than our enemies in north korea. to them, every game is "the hunger games." and now, their athletes could become kim jong un-beatable. >> a new sports drink is claiming to enhance physical ability and speed recovery and it's all due to the miracle ingredient-- mushroom fungus. >> north korean scientists say the drink is very effective. >> stephen: yeah, north korea has developed a mushroom-based sports drink, which brings me to the first-ever installment of "spor-report." where athletes--

( applause ) where athletes and fungus come together and for once, not in their jocks. according to the korean central news agency, d.p.r.k. scientists have "succeeded in finding the way to cultivate mushroom fungus and made a functional drink. this natural drink is very effective in enhancing the physical abilities of sports persons and recovering from their fatigue." enhancing sports persons and recovering from fatigue. that is a one-two punching we can't be in competition for. more proof north korea is shii-taking this program seriously? look at this photo of kim jong-un. it's hard to say where the mushrooms begin and his hair cut ends. one company has a mushroom-based sports drink-- it's campbell's. their cream of mushroom super-delegate really helps replenish your body's natural

soup. campbell's, if you're smart, you'll rename the thirst quencher, campbell's new sport-o-bellow. that smells like victory, and a little like a freshly dug grave. second, folks, i love football. i d.v.r. every game, and so do the players because it's the only way they can remember what happened. that's why i'm so disgusted by the betrayal can you remember playing out in the nfl where over 500 former players have joined a lawsuit against the league that made them famous and drug adictd invalids gee, a new lawsuit alleges nfl teams and their doctors knowingly gave players an array of prescription drugs and pain killers for years and years without any regard for the long-term damage. >> former football plaishz by the hundreds claim the league illegally drugged them to make sure they could stay in the game. in many cases did not even tell them what was wrong with them.

>> our players were shot up like cattle. they were brought to market, and then discarded like pieces of meat. >> stephen: what an exaggeration. america's cattle are given far fewer drugs. and oh, what wonderful pain killing drugs they were. it was like willy wonka and the ever-lasting throb stuffers. not only did you have percodan, percocet, vied din, but also ambien. so if you ever thought the jets looked like they were asleep out there, you're right. what really saddens me-- ( cheers and applause ) you fans of the jets or narcotics out here tonight? what really saddens me, folks, is three of the plaintiffs are members of my beloved 1985 super bowl champion chicago bears who we should have known were jookd something when they made this.

>> stephen: how could you suit nfl? you gave your word pup weren't here to start no trouble. next, finally, the olympics. folks, the summer games are just two years away in rio de janeiro, the perfect city to carry on the spirit of the first olympics because everyone there is already oiled up and naked. ( laughter ) and, folks, excitement is building in rio. in fact, that might be the only thing that's building. >> host city rio de janeiro is so far behind in its preparations. >> the project is facing unprecedented delays. >> roads going nowhere, unfinished stands. and an awful lot of construction work still to do. >> the top olympics official is slamming preparations for the 2016 games in rio, calling them the worst he's experienced in nearly 40 years.

>> stephen: the worst ever experienced. and that is saying something because there are still some olympic athletes trapped in their sochi hotel bathrooms. but, folks, there is one event that will be more affected by the delays than any other-- sailing. because rio's gaanabarra bay is so filled with raw sewage and garbage, that one sailor's dinghy crashed into what he believed was a partly submerged sofa. and another one encountered human corpses on four occasions while sailing in the bay. four corpses, folks. that's bad. the sofa only holds three.

whether democratic front-runner hillary clinton is too old and infirm to be president. >> karl rove suggested hillary clinton may have brain damage. >> look, she'll be 69 by the time of the 2016 election. she will be 77 if she serves two terms. >> stephen: let me check the math there. okay, yeah, okay, i have 69 straws in one hand, and let me get-- let me get eight more straws. yeah, yeah, that really feels like a grasping at a lot of straws. ( laughter ) ( applause ) well, yesterday, yesterday, one eagle-eyed journalist cast further doubts about hillary clinton's advanced dereppitude. >> hillary clinton's recent cover shoot for "people" is raising a lot of eyebrows. >> drudge reported tweeted, "is clinton holding a walker?" >> stephen: that's a fair and reasonable question. i do not doubt for a second that if hillary clinton used a

walker, she'd insist on appearing with it on the cover of "people" magazine. no surprise, information, hillary huggers people flew into damage control releasing this statement. "secretary clinton is standing next to a patio chair. of or as doctors call it a stationery pool-side jazzy. and drudge didn't mention ride of right beside clinton right there is an announcement that alice from the "brady bunch" die. coincidence, or did hillary clinton beat her to death with her walker? ( applause ).

reagan, not justin bieber. what? that's him? oh, i see. fresh gipp-dog. the point is, folks, this "people" issue is incredibly damaging for clinton. i just cannot wait to see how conservatives react to her latest press conference. oh, my god. she's still going to win. we'll be right back. when francois thibault said he was going to make vodka in cognac, with spring water and the best french wheat. everyone here said... non, non!
