'Daily Show' Has The Most Wicked Way GOP Can Get Back At Elon Musk's 'S**t' Talk
'Daily Show' correspondent Michael Kosta on Wednesday called out House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) over his reluctant response to Elon Musk's escalating attacks against President Donald Trump's 'big, beautiful bill.'
Kosta — while teeing up a clip of Johnson's monotonous response to Musk — said Republicans turning on the bill after just one post by Musk 'must really piss off' the House speaker who 'busted his balls for months' working on it.
'Don't take that shit, Mike!' said Kosta before serving a brutal diss of the former White House adviser.
'Tell that pasty, South African, belly-flashing, sperm-fountain, absent-baby-daddy, friendless, Ziploc-bag-full-of-jizz, ketamine —.'
Kosta, after pausing for applause, piled on more insults, ' — ketamine-Rasputin, dead-eye-deadbeat, DOGE-donkey, Hitler-waving, semen-distributor where he can shove his tweets! Come on!'
The comedian then turned to video of Johnson's humdrum words for Musk.
'With all due respect, my friend Elon is terribly wrong about the one big, beautiful bill.'
Kosta made a mockery of the response.
'Ohhhh, my God none of them are good at this,' he said.
Moments earlier, he clowned Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) for her post-vote backlash against the bill Tuesday when she revealed she was 'adamantly OPPOSED' to a provision on artificial intelligence.
He played a clip of Greene who, in remarks on the House floor, advised lawmakers to 'carefully' keep an eye on the bills they pass.
Kosta chimed in, 'Yup, no shit!'
'I mean, congrats on coming out against a crazy thing in this bill but you weren't aware of what was in it? That's your job. This isn't book club. You can't just read the first seven pages and then be like, 'I love it, Linda, more rosé.''
