Even Jon Stewart Is Shocked That Zohran Mamdani Can't Answer This Easy Question

The energy is around the belief that their economic populace, the hottest, don't like guys named Stewart Leibowitz, the people of color out of the country. You cannot have hair encroaching into the eye. Olive Garden has a more secure system around their fettuccine Alfredo than we have around our election.
23rd, 2026, we have a tremendous program for you today. A little bit of everything. And as I said yesterday, with only a week to go, before I disappear for all of August, we are going to just bring the heat relentlessly with no apologies, completely off the hook. I think that's a term the kids are using these days. And I do wanna mention one thing. It hit me yesterday. What I've tried to do this past six months or so, this year, is I've tried to control the cursing on the show. And every now and again, the F-bomb does fly out there. Now and again, I have to have Conor preemptively mute me, et cetera, et cetera. But I think in light of going off the grid, the whole point of going off the grid is that I can reset my mind, I can get rid of some of the nonsense, I can get off the hamster wheel of the news and then come back with fresh eyes and a new perspective on things. I think I'm waving my no cursing thing for the rest of the time on the grid. So for the next week, I'm not going to go out of my way to curse. I will still keep it, it will be top of mind that I'm not here to just drop f-bombs now and again. But I think I just got to let it fly for this last little bit because we are so deep in the mire and the muck with these commie jihadis and I have a limited vocabulary. There's only so many adjectives I know and a lot of them are around the f and the c words. So I'm just going to, it's just, it is what it is. So if you've got children that are with you, maybe this won't be starting from today until I go off the grid after next week. Maybe it won't be the best time to watch the show. Let's just put that there and dive in because we do have a little bit of everything today. Mostly, of course, centered around this communist takeover of the Democrat Party. And that is exactly what it is with, as I've said for quite some time now, a dash of jihad. So Zohran Mamdani, he went on Jon Stewart's podcast. And again, I hit Jon Stewart pretty hard yesterday. He should have been what Bill Maher is, which is a standard bearer for liberalism.
You know, they always used to say for 20 years in America, everybody always used to say more young people get their news from The Daily Show than anywhere else. I never bought that. I never thought that was actually true. But he was somewhere that was out there, let's say on the left, not completely insane. And you can say he was funny or not funny or whatever. As you know, I interned for him at The Daily Show in 1999 It was a long, man, that's 27 years ago. You guys weren't even born. You weirdos. Anyway, it was a long time ago.
So this is not personal in some sense, but unfortunately he has decided to dive all in on all of the leftist lunacy. And he's, he seems to want to become a dimmy, D-H-I-M-M-I, a dimmy. And that is someone who lives in a Muslim majority society, who has separate laws, separate ways of life, probably has to pay the jizya, that is the tax to their overlords. And it is worth noting that his real name is Jonathan Leibowitz. So he's a big Jew, big Jew, but he loves that they are ushering in the Muslim communist socialist over there. Here they are.

**Zohran Mamdani** (4:02)
Being a Muslim democratic socialist, I thought it would be pretty straightforward.

**Jon Stewart** (4:08)
What if I label myself something that scares people the most? I'm a Muslim democratic socialist.

**Zohran Mamdani** (4:14)
If you scare him, you scare him twice.

**Dave Rubin** (4:19)
He's just a Muslim democratic socialist. And the funny thing for you, Jon Stewart, is that you're a really rich Jew. You're worth 120 million bucks. And your last name's Leibowitz. So when they come and they start beheading people with machetes, you're gonna be one of the people that they get, but it'll take a little extra time because yeah, they'll go for the other Jews first and the other Dimmies first because you're a useful idiot ushering in their nonsense. What Jon Stewart has become here is a kapo. He is a kapo. And you know what that is? I will even give you, I think we pulled up the actual definition of what a kapo is. A kapo, which is the shortened from the German word for corporal or foreman, was a prisoner forced by the SS, the Nazis, to supervise forced labor and administrative tasks. While some use their situational authority to protect fellow inmates, many abused their power and acted brutally. They were hated by other prisoners and often targeted during camp liberations. And you can read more at the Holocaust Museum website. But that's what he is, right? Like he is a Jew, remember, Leibowitz, not Stewart. That's your real name. And you are very excited that a Muslim socialist is on the way. And the more power the Muslims get in America, the less freedoms there will be. And I suppose maybe you do want to submit to Islam. But you right now are running cover as all of the bad ideas are ushered in. And again, Jon Stewart, even if you weren't a Jew, which I don't know that you're a Jew, other than you probably have a bagel every now and again, you might want to be a little more concerned about the socialist thing on the way because you're worth $120 million. So right now, yeah, they're going for the trillionaire, the one trillionaire who you used to love. And they're going for the billionaires. And I guess you're not a billionaire yet, but eventually it'll be for the hundred millionaires. And then your head will be on a stick. And you might say, Dave, but...
