In the 2024 election, we saw how problematic voting by mail can be. Nearly 15 million votes disappeared, and almost all of them were from Democrats for "some reason." In this video, we examine how manipulative John Oliver is.
Oh void John…long time no see
I wonder why they reposted this after it has aged so poorly. I am from Minneapolis and those riots turned so many people red in the city. Those riots have permanently destroyed neighborhoods still to this day
any day with a JO upload is a good day
lets hope the cv-19 propaganda is minimal, i jumped half dozen episodes. fyi, i do enjoy watching your silly documentaries
Just an FYI, I voted with a mail in ballot in Arizona in 2020. When they send you a ballot, it comes with an "I Voted " sticker. Yea, Arizona!
My .9mm mechanical pencils and big eraser are right on my desk next to my keyboard and some scratch paper. They don't leave this space under any condition. It is preferable for software development and necessary for system administration (sometimes everything goes down, and you've gotta go analog… bootloader code is on page 103 of the notebook with the lambda on the cover for very exigent circumstances).
purple hbo doesn’t seem so bad in hindsight…

Johns sports take here didnt age well. Dame Lillard has killed the Bucks. Hes a walking bucket but hes not a winning basketball player really.
As a resident of Louisiana I have to say: Not inly would I vote for that bird, but I would actively volunteer for that bird's campaign
HA! I know EXACTLY where my pencil sharpener is. I just don't know where my pencils are.
Always good to see our bird-man watching out for us bird watchers!
Is it weird I want to get back in 2020? At least I've had hope then…
Stop posting reruns from several years ago.
Trump only bitched about mail in ballots cuz he was getting less than Biden, only when he loses he claims the election is rigged while he himself tries to rig the election by spreading misinformation about his opponents
26:33 flashbacks to MST3K's "Space Mutiny" name calling
Oh right I completely forgot that the pandemic added logistical nightmares to the vote counting and why the results took so long to come out. I was surprised by how fast 2024's was lol
Tucker Carlson and Fox News reminds me of the Roman Catholic Church during Francos reign in Spain. (Getting filthy rich while they systematically supported ethnic cleansing of the population Franco supporters consider less than human through fear mongering and xenophobia).
