Jon Stewart Mocks The 2 Weirdest New Right-Wing Conspiracy Theories
HuffPost
"The Daily Show" host tore into Fox News and Marjorie Taylor Greene over some truly bonkers claims.
“Daily Show” host Jon Stewart found that right-wingers had some strange hot takes on two issues that would seem apolitical: Monday’s eclipse and Friday’s minor earthquake in the Northeast.
Fox News personalities warned that the nearly four minutes of darkness caused by the eclipse could lead to problems at the border. Host Bill Hemmer said the eclipse would be “a real opportunity for smugglers and cartels and migrants to come right in.”
Stewart fired back: “Or they could just wait ’til nighttime.”
“Is there nothing Fox can’t tie to immigration?” he wondered, then envisioned the network delivering an even more bizarre scenario: “This here cicada infestation provides perfect cover for Venezuelans.”
Stewart noted that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said the eclipse and Friday’s quake were “strong signs” from God “to repent.”
