Courtside Conversations: Sports Meets Politics

Jon Stewart examines chaos in the MAGA-verse, as escalating ICE raids in Los Angeles erupt in protests, Stephen Miller hunts for nonviolent immigrants, Elon plays the Epstein card on Trump, and the Trump-Elon alpha male war reveals itself as a sensitive baby feud.

Stephen A. Smith, bestselling author & host of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” sits down with Jon to discuss why he would rather be a hellraiser than an elected official, how politicians have divided and contributed to the demise of this country, and why the messenger matters in politics. Smith, who recently signed a 5-year contract with ESPN and a multi-year deal with SiriusXM, also discussed a comment he made about Jalen Brunson that Stewart considers “an impeachable offense,” their ride-or-die love of the Knicks, and the reason the Buffalo Bills may be at fault for Trump’s presidency.
