Aasif asks if they can name ''any'' aspects of Sharia law, but ''nobody'' is able to do so. So, Aasif lists some aspects before mentioning those are actually from the Bible. When it's pointed that the amendment is technically phrased to prohibit any foreign laws, Aasif notes that [[ExactWords by definition, that would also include the Bible]]. Cue OhCrap reactions.

* March 3rd: Jon's takedown of Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress, chewing out both John Boehner, who blatantly disrespected President Obama by inviting Netanyahu without informing him, and Netanyahu [[CryingWolf for using the same fearmongering about a nuclear Iran for the past 19 years]], one instance which helped sell the War in Iraq.

*** Lampshaded by Jon near the end of the interview, when she yet again looks at the audience. "WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO?!"

-->'''Jon:''' I’m really worried about the Republicans. [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Their inability to wean themselves off of military intervention. They have a culture of defendency, if you will]]. And I believe it’s turned them all into [[UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan warfare queens]]. [[IronicEcho And I think we need to cut them off for their own good]].

* May 28th: [[http://thedailyshow.cc.com/videos/l7uzqg/democalypse-2016---bernie-sanders-kicks-off-his-presidential-campaign Jon defending Bernie Saunders announcing his candidacy for the U.S. President election]] in spite of the dismissive publicity afforded to him by much of the mainstream media. He compares Bernie's honesty to the vapid publicity that the media affords to extreme right-wing nominees running for office and Hilary Clinton having media consultants inform her on how to appeal to voter demographics through superficial posturing instead of presenting thoughts on how to resolve major national issues.

-->'''Jon:''' I think you might be confusing ''tyranny'' with ''losing''. And I feel for you because ah... I've been there. A few times. In fact, one of them was a bit of a nailbiter. But see, when the guy that you disagree with gets elected, he's probably going to do things you disagree with. [[UsefulNotes/GeorgeWBush He could cut taxes on the wealthy, remove government's oversight capability, invade a country that you thought should not be invaded]], but that's not tyranny. That's ''democracy''. See, now you're in the ''minority''. It's supposed to taste like a shit taco. And by the way, if I remember correctly when disagreement was expressed about that president's actions when y'all were in power I believe the response was "why do you hate America?", "watch what you say", "love it or leave it", "suck on my truck nuts".

* February 3rd: Jon takes the news about a measles outbreak in the United States, after some boneheaded parents refused to vaccinate their children on the most idiotic grounds possible. Using an analogy that compares zombies to a measles outbreak a la ''Film/NightOfTheLivingDead'', he points out just how stupid you'd have to be to subscribe to this logic and utterly shreds it in less than a minute.

-->'''Jon''': Guess what, Republicans? Here's the deal--your "We're-the-only-party-that-understands-9/11-and-its-repercussions" monopoly ends. ''Now.''
