(cheers and applause).
1:40 am
>> trevor: oh wow, wow! thank you so much. thank you so much, everybody. welcome to the daily show, welcome to the daily show, i'm trevor noah, take a seat, take a seat, teak a seat, tack a seat, welcome to it welcome to it. tonight, tonight we are joined by the master mind behind the hit show drunk history. derek waters is here, everybody. we have a really exciting season coming up. we're also going to be catching up on the big news in the russia investigation and we'll find out which democrats are getting too the ring with trump in 2020. but first let's catch up on today's headlines. teaching, its he's not an easy job unless you are a gym teacher. because then you can hit the
1:41 am
kids, yeah they call it dodge ball but we all know the truth. anyway, educators in america are not compensated fairly which is why this happened. >> tens of thousands of teachers in los angeles are expected to strike this morning in the nation's second largest school district. educators are demanding more counselors and librarians, plus a full-time nurse nev ree school in addition to salary negotiations. talks broke down friday and were not renewed over the weekend. >> trevor: that's right, teachers in the nation's second largest school district are striking. so if you are in l.a. expect to hear some grammatically correct chants. what do we want, more pay. from whom do we want said pay? one at a time, please, raise your hand. (laughter) now i'm not going to lie, i'm not going to lie strks hard not to be on the teacher's side in this dispute, firstly because i don't think teachers ever get paid enough. and secondly they're also asking for more school counselors and one nurse per school.
1:42 am
that is like the most reasonable list of demands i have ever heard. like i wish bank robbers were this reasonable. it will be like i'm not going to release the hoss tajes until you open up another teller window and also i want the chain on the pen to be long enough to reach the thing i'm trying to write on. just a long enough chain. >> not a chance shall not a chance. kill some hostages, then we'll talk. moving on, some news on instagram. st where anyone can be a model, you know, all you need is an ass and a dream. and now there is a new insta-star. >> for nearly a year kylie jenner has held the record for the most liked photo on instagram. it was this one here, the first photo of her daughter stormy it has been liked a whopping 18 million times. many thought that could never be topped but that was before world r0rd egg. an account with that very name posted this single photo, a picture of an egg. the caption reads let's set a world record together and get the most likes posted on instagram, social media users accepted that challenge.
1:43 am
egg not only beat jenner's record of 18 million, it you were crushed it. the egg currently has 26 million likes and counting,. >> trevor: the egg has 26 million likes and counting, bow down to your new queen. this is egg-sighting. this egg is so popular they actually just announced that it is going to be hosting the oscars. yeah, which i'm really happy about because they have never had an egg before-- and if you-- sorry, hold on, sorry. oh, sorry, i'm being told the egg has been forked from hosting the oscars. apparently they just found the egg's old tweets. really, really sad. (laughter) so congratulations, egg. you are the new champion of social media. i hope you enjoy your time at the top bus soon you will find out that instagram fame is over easy. (laughter)
1:44 am
moving on to some news from china. they have not been having a good time recently, right. their economy is in trouble. their infrastructure is crumbling and their generals haven't invented a new chicken recipe in like 50 years. but over the weekend they got some good news that sent them over the moon. >> china has landed a space craft on the dark side of the moon and now we're all getting a chance to see what it looks like, here is part of a 12 minute video that the chinese national space administration released. there study the moon's terrain while it is there and bring back a sample here to earth. >> trevor: that's right, china just became the first nation to land on the dark side of the moon. and this is a big deal because this is the side of the moon that we never get to see. unless you give it a few drinks and bring out the hex within ex-wife and the moon gets dark legal quick it may be a difficult concept to grasp but because of the way the moon are taits as it circles the planet, there is a whole siefd the moon that we have never seen from earth it is like the left side
1:45 am
of mariah carey's face, yeah, it is never facing us. we don't know what is on the other side. the question, the question now is-- what will china find? everyone wants to know what is. there my guess is the far side of the moon is where they hide the move wree set where they faked the original moon landing. think about it. all right, and finally, big news from the world of sports. the saints, the rams, the chiefs and the patriots are all moving on to the conference championships. and while these teams are moving on, chicago is stuck in the past. >> chicago, still reeling, the game from codee parky missed field goal in the playoff game knocking chicago out of the playoffs. so much in fact a chicago brewery sponsder the parky challenge where 101 people lined up and attempted a 43 yard field goal. >> fan after fan continued to try to kick their way for a successful field goal.
1:46 am
many of them faulting down or kicking the stands in the process. >> trevor: whoever came up with this idea is a genius. you know why, you know why, because sports fans always act like they could have won the game, right, when they are barely winning in life. people sitting a at home, you idiot you should have passioned the ball earlier, goddam it it, mom, my hand is stuck in the pringles can again. (laughter) i think we should do this for everything. everyone that has too much of this when they don't do the job, be like oh, that pilot's landing was horrible. all right, why don't you take the controls. >> if i was soar i would have gotten it in the head. it is funny you say that because he is thanos is there right now, why don't you take that axe and prove it. >> i would but my hand is stuck in this pringles hand. but easily my favorite attempt at a field goal was this one.
1:47 am
(laughter) oh man. the bright yellow vest was not the protection that man needed. and now his balls have a concussion. all right, let's move on to our main story. today marks the 24th day of the government shutdown. and every day the situation is getting worse. this is the longest shutdown in american history. airports are shutting terminals, court cases are being delayed, and to make ends meet mount rushmore has been forced to sell ad space to guy co. now-- geico. now polls have shown that 55% of the country blames president trump for the shutdown. and the other 45 percent have clearly never seen this video. >> i am proud to shut down the government. >> trevor: right. but it if losing the shutdown battle isn't bad enough for trump, the news that came out this weekend has probably made
1:48 am
him feel even worse. >> another shocking report in "the new york times," the paper claimed the fbi opened a counterintelligence investigation into whether the president was acting on behalf of the russians when he fired fbi director james comey. last night on fox news the president asked point blank whether he worked on behalf of russia. >> are you now or have you ever worked for russia, mr. president. >> i think it is the most insulting thing i've ever been asked. >> trevor: how is that the most insults question he has ever been asked. i mean people have been asking him if he wants to bang his daughter, but that is more insulting? yeah, the other question was way more reasonable. i mean we've all seen her, right, we've all seen her. but yes, "the new york times" reported that the fbi investigated donald trump because they thought he might be a secret russian spy. which i'm sorry, is just crazy. not because he woon do it, but because donald trump would be the world's worse spy, no one would hire him, right?
1:49 am
he can't be a spy, he doesn't even have an inside voice. he would be out there like thank you for meeting me, under this bridge to exchange the top secret documents. and also, spies are known for blending in. if there is one thing trump doesn't do it's blend in red tie, orange skin, blond hair. the only thing that blends in is in the jar of star burst, he's not blending in. so i don't think trump is a russian spy. all right. but i won't lie, it doesn't help his case when he's doing stuff like this. >> a bombshell report in the "washington post" claiming president trump went to quote extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with russian president a putin. the post reporting that at that private meeting in hamburg back if 2017 the president confiscated his own interpreter's notes, shutting out members of the administration. >> trevor: now you got to admit, that is real shady,
1:50 am
right. because now everyone wants to know, what did he say to putin that was so bad he couldn't let anyone else see it. could have been collusion. could have been something worse. like maybe trump said i love you. (laughter) and then put inreplied, thank you. in which case i'm with trump, you can never let that get out. but enough about trump, enough about trump. let's talk about the people who are going to try and replace him. because i don't know if you guys know this but it's only 659 days until the 2020 election. i know. i know-- (applause). >> trevor: that's like tomorrow. that's like tomorrow, guys. so the big question is, which democrat will take on trump? well, we're going to be keeping you up to date on every twist and turn of the crowded democratic race in our new segment world war d. so as of right now there is
1:51 am
about a thousand democrats who are expected to run for president. and i will be honest with you, you know what i love about american politics is that st all a game, right, most of the people the politicians who stn a real chance of wing, they don't enter the race early, st always the fringe no names who announce their candidacy first. it always reminded me of a dance circle at a party. you ever go tie company party or anything way dance circle, the first people who go in, are the people who have no business dancing if public. they have all the confidence in the world, they get in, they have all those moves and the good dancers stand on the side and they will be popping and locking and doing their thing, and you will be like hey, are you going to dance, i don't know, no, i don't really dance any momplet i just-- yeah, i don't-- i don't really-- i don't really dance. i'm-- we'll see what happens, you know, well a he see how it goes. that's what always happens. and because the election is around the corner, the fringe dancers are jumping straight in.
1:52 am
>> hawaii congresswoman tulsi gabbard go seek the democratic nomination for president in 2020. >> gabbard towted her work for her father's antigay organization in the early 2,000 promoting controversial conversion thrpee. her views on lgbt right have shifted dramically in recent years n a statement to cnn she says she regrets her positions from the past. >> she may also have real problems with her ties, a secret meeting with president assad and denying that assad was behind a chemical weapons attack, a murderer, so that i think may be even a bigger issue. >> trevor: wow. so she's got an antigay past and she definded bashar all assad strks like she is one more controversy away from getting no votes in the democratic primary, like her coming out like well, the last four years have i been dating an ar-150. free harvey weinstein, free harvey weinstein. but the truth is, this year is special. because we're not just hearing
1:53 am
from candidates who make you say who the hell is that. we're also hearing from candidates who make you say, remind me who that is again. >> former housing secretary julian castro picking kicked off his campaign for president in his hometown of san antonio texas. castro was mayor of san antonio before he joined the o obama administration. >> this community is a community like so many others across the nation. the american dream is not a sprint, or even a marathon. but a relay. together we will show that hopes can be figurer than fear, that life canning bigger-- light can be bigger than darkness and truth can be bigger than lies. and as long as we work for t tomorrow will always be better than today, so let's go work, vomanos. (laughter). >> trevor: is it just me or does castro sound like he went to the obama school of speech. (laughter) like same cadence, same
1:54 am
delivery, maybe it is obama. (laughter) like maybe he just got fed up and he was like screw t i will run again. just give me my hispanic mask and i will do it. and they're like sir, no one will fall for, that and he said that is what you said about my birth certificate, let's do it. come on. (applause) now although, although he is a long shot, castro could be a real contender. he is a real contender. is he young but he also has washington experience. he is a progressive person who is running on universal pre-k and affordable college. his dad probably wasn't fidel castro, i mean, these are all the things you want in a candidatement but aside from gabbard and castro, we've also gotten an announcement from one of the biggest names in politics, elizabeth warren. and she celebrated her announcement with a live intra gram chat from inside her
1:55 am
kitchen. >> senator elizabeth warren becoming the biggest name in the democratic field to signal she's running for president. >> now looking to reintroduce herself to democrats. connecting with supporters on instagram. >> hold on a section,-- secretary, i'm going to get me a beer. my husband bruce is now in here. you want a beer? >> no i'll pass on the beer for now. >> you sure. >> yeah. >> so this is my sweetie. >> hello. >> he's the best, thank you for being here. >> pleasure. >> i'm glad you are here. (laughter). >> trevor: i don't always drink beer but when i am trying to look relateddable, do i it on instagram. that was an interesting choice, though, right. it really san interesting choice for warren, just drinking alone in her kitchen. i guess she wanted to start her campaign the same way hillary ended hers, you know? oh!
1:56 am
oh! oh! oh! oh! oh! oh! oh! who made that joke? (laughter) all rightk he got my steps in. so as it stands, in the past month three democratic candidates have thrown their hats in the ring. thanked means the 2020 race has officially begun. it's only january, right. you realize if there are this many candidates now, that means by the summer this field will be more crowded than chuck and nancy at a podium, you understand that, right. and ultimately the truth is the candidate who manages to get through a primary campaign this packed is going to be the one with the strongest and most passionate base of supporters. so what i am saying is don't be surprised if the democrats 2020 nominee is the instagram egg. we'll be right back. #r

isn't it unbelievable? it's unbelievable. (applause) >> and he went in and he knocked the hell out of everyone. and you know the story, they said to lincoln you can't use him any more. he's an alcoholic. and lincoln said i don't care if he is an alcoholic, frankly, give me six or seven more just like him. grant really did he had a serious problem, a serious drinking problem. but man, was he a good general. and he's finally being recognized as a great general. >> sure s yeah. granted figured it out. and grant is a great general.
