“America leaves WHO” sounds like a news broadcast form Plague Inc.
I think it is one.
Plague Inc. showed where the Pandemic would start in their release trailer.
it's almost sad that so many different tv shows (streaming now on everything) have predicted this a long time ago, like if was just all a joke then..
Honestly, this whole year has felt like we're NPCs on a winning game of Plague Inc, and I've noticed the eerie similarities since Italy shut down the first time
PLAGUE INC LIED TO ME, IT SAID INFECTION WOULD SPREAD SLOWLY IN USA I want my money back
Can we appreciate getting these segments in full, uninterrupted by ads?
Damn straight.
@@Viperzka HBO has to be ok with it being available here, as it is, right? As far as I know this is an official channel, so my praise is for HBO not being greedy like for example, MSNBC and NFL, which have been putting mid-roll ads in their uploads recently.
@@staomruel Yea, Sorry, I misread you. I hadn't noticed the lack of ads. NVM, you're right. I delete my comment in shame.
@@Viperzka no worries dude, I didn't take your comment as an attack.
@E Z noone said they weren't, just expressing appreciation for not grabbing every possible penny.
"this whole mess is almost entirely america's fault. back in the 1980's the reagan administration-" yeah that sounds about right
Exactly what they’ll say about the trump administration down the road 😬 love it
@@rachelbelanger4726 optimistic to think Trump will leave a world after
@@venom_colada1512 I don’t know whether to laugh or cringe lol because it’s true
I heard that and actually groaned out loud. I said "thanks for fucking it up for the rest of us America".
I heard that and actually groaned out loud. I said "thanks for fucking it up for the rest of us America".
This show is 10x more serious without an audience
I agree. The lack of a laughing audience makes it super unnerving.
makes me sad
kinda frustrating seeing people say they miss the american audience that clap and laugh over everything constantly, dividing the actual amount of content by 2. It's much more watchable like this.
the void has that power
Honestly it just felt more personal to me. It felt like you and Johnny were the only 2 people on Earth cuz no one else was there to provide a laugh track
Glad that John is highlighting that Melania is not ‘innocent’ and actually is complicit.

kzhead.info/sun/fr2OeM2ge3OPda8/bejne.html
Of course that clay faced woman is complicit.
Remember that famous picture of Eleanor Roosevelt naked spreading her legs? Or that infamous time Jackie Kennedy took her pants off on live TV to show everyone her whoha? All the good will and dignity of being first lady gone in an instant.
It's a long-established tenant of chauvinism to blame wives for their husband's Behavior.
Poor John Oliver, for a while now, at the end of each episode he looks and sounds quite exhausted, thank you Lastweektonight team.
Seems like it's directly proportional to the number of times he drops the F bomb
And straight up angry (as he should be). Dude's got a lot of passion. His team knows how to nail a story every time. I guess I'm sort of comforted that there are some ppl in America (even if they're not from America haha) who still believe this place can be something truly special. Not willing to give up and let it go to shit. Good on em. Clarity seems to be getting harder to find for some ppl these days
Right now, this life we are in is exhausting. It's similar to being married to a raging drunk who bellows his anger for hours and hours when sober, only to be violent when drunk on a continuous basis. But you can't get out of the marriage for some reason because the community eliminated social services and other organizations except for the police who does not "serve and protect." You can't blame Fake News for all this bad stuff because it's real. You can't blame Trump alone because his supporters are all-in on the bad stuff like blood-thirsty sharks. Right now, it seems like evil is winning. It takes a special amount of strength to defeat this tidal wave of evil, and many of us are spent.
@@conorobrien1025 well said. I look forward to John's shows every week. I, sometimes, go back and listen again.
“And I mean that... fucking literally.”
If this year doesn’t end soon, John will just punch the camera.
Lmao
We’re almost there guys the clocks ticking
What makes you think 2021 won't be worse? Let's not forget, we thought 2016 was bad.
It might be in fact my bets on the apocalypse sometime next year if 2020 was this bad that’s basically the only way next year can trump it (pun most definitely intended)zombies another pandemic global nuclear war or economic crash you name it but I won’t be caught with my trousers down this time I’m going preper
He didn't punched the camera, he blew up 2020
Love watching “it might sound tedious, but it is really important “ with John Oliver
“Underfunding a public school and expecting a bake sale to make up the difference” Yikes that one got me in the rural America.
Yeah that’s not a metaphor, that’s just what happens 😂 😅
@@fortunatecookie very sadly true...not just rural areas too :( we live just outside of Nashville and our public schools are underfunded, and it takes the surrounding community to step up and help as much as possible. Or staff members write grants or apply for grants, etc. And how does that make sense with how much $$$ is flowing all around? Ridiculous!
The US is actually fucking terrible when it comes to international cooperation aimed at making things better for people. The list of treaties and conventions the US is either not party to, hasn’t signed, or hasn’t ratified is hilariously shameful.
what's worse is that schools aren't even doing bake sales anymore in conservative states, they straight up make children work at fast food joints like Mc Donald's for a day, and somehow this doesn't ring any alarm bells for child endangerment.
Did you say the name of my rural high school in the Midwest? I remember my father complaining about my school AND complaining about a referendum to increase its funding by slightly raising taxes.
Today on, “More things you didn’t know were Reagan’s fault...”
Wait until you find out what he did to the mental health system in California while governor.
It’s crazy, but this is what happens when you vote republican: even the best republican will create permanent damage!
You know those Transformers movies, that was literally Reagan's fault. They removed restrictions preventing corporations from advertising directly to children. The result of this was Hasbro creating the Transformers toys by taking cars and robots, two things that kids like, and mashing them up into a toy that they could sell to kids in the form of a half-hour long commercial.
@@Deathonater so now everything a kid sees on screen come out with a toy?
@@Deathonater Holy shit, that would mean Reagan made bronies to exist!
The US Military uses up $2 Billion a day- its total budget, $740 Billion.
wow... most of that money goes to bomb and destabilise d muslim world
That's one of the good ways of spending money as promotes general peace Although, US literally subsidises European defense. Europe should do more.
@@dipjyotimitra186 Literally? To be fair giving European countries money so they may buy weapons in the United States and then saying Europe should use their own money to buy weapons in the USA is a racket. Straight up and down.
Most of that is just a front to funnel funds out of the treasury to the hands of the military industrial complex.
@@azamkhan1526 Trump’s not Obama! Obama ran out of bombs while bombing 7 Arab nations. Trump raised the budget due to an international power race with China and the tension being at an all time high in the South China Sea. Trump is the president that has bombed less Arabs nations in 20 years trying to bring all troops back home if it weren’t for congress he’d already done it. Trump’s only US president in more than 20 yrs that has not started a new war.
I'm continually surprised by how often I can get reliable information from an owl in a suit.

This sounds like "Why should my taxes go to paying the firefighters to put how fires in my neighbors' houses? I'll just pay my own personal firefighters to only put out fires in my house."
The terrible thing is that I could see that argument being used.
Completely wrong analogy. Its more like paying for yours and your neighbors' while your neighbor doesnt pay anything. Would rather hire my personal one than pay for the whole damn neighborhood.
@@imperatormaximus8952 it already is. By libertarians
@@siddharthkumar3704 no it’s like donating to the fire department and complaining that your neighbor doesn’t when you were the one who decided that the fire department should be funded primarily by donations. Even all that aside, 400 million a year is fucking orange peels for the US government.
Better talk to a professional firefighter before hiring "a personal fire fighter (team)". He/She might have a different view about protecting your house only - surely depending on the surroudings.
Oh thank heavens. I'm so glad I didn't watch this until after Biden won
Agreeeed

Seriously... especially since it took so long to get and confirm the election results 😭
Yes if I was watching it beforehand I would be screaming and I don’t even live in America (but some friends do)
Yep. Thanks for doing the right thing America, and sending that giant orange cancer cell packing. You've saved billions of lives.
I'm genuinely impressed with John's knowledge of Orgy Management, brings a nice nuance to "open house" days.
Gotta give John Oliver props for holding this show together without an audience.
And he does so better than anyone else. John doesn't need an audience.
👍
Holding it together. Bro he's literally the goat.
Forgot there was ever an audience
Honestly, It's better without the "wooooo" and "hahhahah" in the background
I miss the days when John was happy and made jokes and broadcast his thirst for Adam Driver.
He started being thirsty for Adam Driver when the pandemic started so as far as I'm concerned it's all Adam Driver's fault

Trump is merely the face of the most evil aspects of America and they won’t go away with Biden in office. The only way to stop this country from further descent into madness is to kill it at the source (The GOP).

By the way, how on earth can one man, whatever his position may be, decide that the entire nation leaves an international program? I think the US needs to thoroughly evaluate the power of its executive branch. I mean, doesn't the congress have to agree to a decision of this magnitude?
We really should have an amendment that decrees that violating international agreements is _immediate_ grounds for dismissal, AT LEAST impeachment.
I thought congress is in charge of funding. If they say "give 400m to WHO", what basis does the president have to say "nope"!?

That last minute is LITERALLY my view on Brexit... Why shut yourself off from such an important organisation that can be massively helpful, especially during a global pandemic...
The EU’s handling of the pandemic hasn’t been brilliant. I seem to remember that there was a huge kerfuffle over the stimulus package and Poland have just recently vetoed it. Also, we are still technically involved if we get a trade deal. We’re not shutting ourselves off, we’re dealing with them from the outside instead of the inside.
@@jamiengo2343 you realise the irony in what you just said don't you? Dealing with something from the outside instead of the inside is not a good thing...
@@ljaproductions07 but we’re not shut off. That’s what I’m responding to
@@jamiengo2343 During this whole pandemic our government has been trying to negotiate a no deal brexit...
@@ljaproductions07 umm... No they haven’t they’ve been trying to negotiate a Brexit Trade deal.
Be smart America. Do the right thing today. Don’t vote based on “owning” the other side. Vote based on who you judge to have your best interests in mind. At the end of the day your particular ideology/party/tribe/whatever doesn’t matter. It comes down to health, happiness and well being for yourself and your neighbour. Who do you honestly think cares more about that for you and less about themselves?
As a census worker, I cannot tell you how much work it takes to visit every house. Especially if some people don’t want you to visit...
I thought about being a census worker this year, but the thought of dealing with rude people at their houses gave me anxiety :/ Hopefully people weren't too bad to you.
Emily B. I would actually enjoy being a census work, I enjoy pissing people off
I hope that people were be less rude when someone at the door was like "Does someone in there have Small Pox? Because we would like to help them out.", because news like that should spread like wild fire. If someone comes to your door to give you something rather than wanting to have something from you, the situation is quite different.
But if you are well paid by the people who actually wants you to then you do it right?

When you understand that Trump is actively trying to isolate the US while personally profiting from his own policies, his actions make more sense.
As long as it's not embryonic research that may aid treatment towards COVID, to ONLY HIS benefit, from an outside country.

History book in the 22nd century: "there was a president in the 21st century, during respiratory disease pandemic, discouraged Americans to wear mask, muzzled CDC, sidelined top epidemiologists, pulled America out of WHO, mocked voices that speak the truth, told Americans this disease is god given, kept organizing super spreader gatherings, promoted unproven medicines, pulled federal fundings out of epicenter blue states....."

“This was the beginning of the end for the United States”
History books will likely remember Trump as "That one president who accelerated climate change during the last few years in which we could reverse it, dooming us all to catastrophe". All the other horrible stuff he did will be trivia, for history buffs to whip out whenever somebody mentions how they hate past generations for failing to save our planet.

While it's true that withdrawing from the WHO is a bad move, It's also true that the WHO is China's lapdog. They have been for years. The top dog of the WHO, the Director-General, was Margaret Chan, who was also the Chinese delegate from 2006 - 2017. During this period, the WHO became increasingly vocal in their endorsements of traditional chinese medicines. That's right, the traditional chinese medicines that are driving illegal wildlife trade and putting so many species in danger. The TCM that is rooted in superstition, and not scientific observation. The TCM that has repeated shown to be no more effective then placebo. Curiously, the WHO doesn't support other forms of alternative medicine, like homeotheraphy. Only TCM gets a free pass. Because China. Someone needs to wrest control of the WHO from China. Preferably someone other than the US.

@Erik Wesley Doesn't help with a worldwide pandemic unfortunately.
Ah, so China?
@Erik Wesley Great, so the few people that survived will still have energy and food. The points you mentioned don't help with lowering the alarmingly high infection and death rates the US is confronted with. A properly working WHO would tho. So the priorities are very off imo.
@@masterjim666 200,000 deaths. That was the best case scenario Faucci predicted at the start. But y'all forget facts as soon as they don't support your alarmingly increasing insanity.
@Erik Wesley You are not the only food & energy independent nation on Earth. You also still rely on imported food (directly or indirectly), so i'm not sure what your point is. The pandemic has already had an impact on global economy, and like every problem that effects (global) economy, it will probably be longterm. Supercarriers are useless in a pandemic. At the moment, they're only usefull for fighting in wars in countries that the USA helped fuck over. Largest navigable waterway network in the world. Okay? Two unobstructed coasts. Okay? Largest area of arable land. Again, not much use in a pandemic
I love when Trump is talking about how much the government spends on WHO when his golf outings have cost American taxpayers 140-300 million dollars. Trump playing golf has cost at least 140 million dollars in travel expenses alone in the 3.5 years he has been in office.
Think about it this way: Every penny that isn't spent on (useful) stuff, can be taken by Trump to fund his own (selfish) projects. If I was in his position I'd like to have all the money at my disposal aswell. #defundhospitalsfundgolf
Bingo!
@Tien Hoang 🤣 he does it so he can take it out on taxes
@Tien Hoang Right. He is $400 million in debt! And he holds meetings at his resorts and even has military personnel staying at his hotels so he can milk money from the government.

You are not wrong. As an American, life here feels like a really bad fever dream and I'm still hoping I'll wake up soon.
@J LA Don't rely on a "leader", on a single figure to keep you all safe and sound. It is YOU who has the abilities to make a good life possible. It is YOU who can promote solidarity. It is YOU who can provide housing, food, education and healthcare for everyone. It is YOU - the working class people. The people that actually do the hard work. The overtime. The extra days, weeks months of work. The people that create the world you live in. The people that get robbed of the value of their work. That get treated like mere tools. That get forced into giving away most of their lifetime in exchange for never enough resources to become independent. The people that are forced to except existential threat as normal. Topple this old, rotten system and build something new - from the people for the people. You don't need any elite to tell you how little you deserve to have. You don't need to MAKE a living - you deserve to PROVIDE a living. For everyone.
@Murican Ignorance I find it absolutely hilarious and horrible at the same time. Holarious? Anyway yeah, Americas position as leader of the free world is not a gods given right (even though some people seem to think so) but a result of tireless diplomatics and it's hilarous to see all that go to waste. What is not hilarous is seeing other players like China fill that diplomacy void.
As someone who spent years working in Africa, I can tell you that we have simply replicated a standard African government here, and yet the crazy thing is, in all the shit i have seen African leaders do, not a single one can be held directly responsible for spreading disease among their own people let alone being responsible for such a large number of deaths. I am ...confused!
I love how things went from the early days "The WHO is telling us about this outbreak, but it's nothing, it'll be gone, no one here will get it" to the current "The WHO didn't tell us anything, it's their fault"
They literally said it wasn’t able to transmit between humans lol
@@dustyrhoads9892 Yes, in the very early beginning the WHO said there was no evidence of human to human spread, but that they wouldn't rule out the possibility either. But people heard it, dumbed it down to your post and claimed it was fact. Here's the article from January www.voanews.com/science-health/who-does-not-rule-out-human-human-spread-new-coronavirus

@andrew miller And then of course there are also the people who don't understand the difference between a theory and a *scientific* theory, and attempt to use that to discredit ongoing scientific research, such as in regards to anthropogenic global warming.
@@dustyrhoads9892 its like saying 'well scientists back in the day said the world is flat so who u are to tell me its round'. Science always evolves dude, its basic understanding.
We love you John
Every new episode John Oliver gets more and more frustrated, can't even hide it behind jokes anymore, and I relate to that so freaking hard that it hurts.
I swear, if Trump stays president, we’re going to be pulled out of the UN at this rate.
Not a bad thing.
Wait they haven't kicked us out yet?! Well 2020 still has 2 months yet it can still happen.
Well, USA *is* the naughtiest member of the UN, anyway.
Pulled out? No, we'll be KICKED out.
I mean, withdrawal from the UN means no more US veto in the Security Council, which could be good news for Palestine...

Wrong thing to focus on, but I'm pretty proud of how much of this information I knew prior to clicking on this video. Glad to see the health class I took didn't go to waste. This is important information to know.
Thank you John! I loved your closing remarks
Trump: "I've gotten very much involved...." At this point, it's just insulting to everyone's intelligence.
The Dumpster fire in chief is mainly appealing to his cult. Everyone else doesn't believe anything he says.

Dear John Oliver, I love you.
I am a new last week tonight viewer. In past month watched every episode
John Oliver is literally a pipe organ for common sense. Play on, my man.
How about this for common sense? kzhead.info/sun/kt6LctKlfKOllp8/bejne.html
@@TheGolfdaily Did you even watch the video?
People like you@@TheGolfdaily I only have one thing to say from the great words of phillip de franco "Don't be stupid, Stupid"
@@PremiumCheeses I want to play the curb your enthusiasm theme right now
Yes I did. Did you watch my video?
Tucker Carlson having a segment called "Propaganda Machine" is one of the most ironic things I've seen all year. Are you trying to tell us something, Tucker?
Classic projection.
Tucker carlson is nothing but a angry little puppet. He looks like he'd be driving around in a van with Trump, Steven miller with Eric driving hunched over the wheel and looking for kids to give candy to. All of them with creepy smiles on their worn out faces.... Whitehouse full of idiots that don't care about the majority of the country.
Blink twice if you need to be rescued, Tucker!
You think tucker Carlson and fox news has the same power as big tech and about 5 other main stream media stations. Getting banned off twitter for wrong think is the easiest thing ever. Twitter and Facebook are both lefty lovers. And some of fox news is even starting to lean a little left.
@@deathstarwontsaveyou9892 You kidding? Facebook facilitates far-right groups and allows them to organize meetups that have led to people being killed.

00:31 FINALLY! Thank you for bringing this up! I'm so f*cking tired of people misusing this word all the time!!!!
Wouldn't it be nice if we had a POTUS that treats pandemics as a global threat instead of a PR crisis?
I'd settle for one who knows how to use the word 'literally' properly.
Yeah vote joe bidden, so he locks us al up. Just like his favorite crime bill
If trump didn't cut Obama health department we wouldn't be this mess also this not me saying vote biden, Obama/biden bomb libya so badly they now have slave Markets their both a danger to society kzhead.info/sun/f9aoYNSOo5OolKs/bejne.html
I'd said it be nicer if for the past 40 years we had president who weren't war monger corrupt racist psychopaths
Ugh
Ahhh they didn't show the end which was about the Danbury sewer plant.. For those interested... He won!! The plant is now named "John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant" 😂
Which episode is it?
I assume the metaphor matches the theme of Last Week Tonight. We need sewage plant to process all those shit. Salute to John and team for going through all the shit for us.
@@chengkuoklee5734 I see what you did there. ;)

"We're only as strong as our worst prepared country is" - Jonh Oliver 2020... Imma steal that for an essay ^^
That in many ways seems to be Europe's approach. Even though Europe is going through a second wave now, it's worth thinking about Europe's plans for a post-coronavirus world. Found a pretty good analysis that looks into the future prospects of the EU after the pandemic: kzhead.info/sun/lrulqLF6kIeXqIE/bejne.html Well worth a watch.
It's a good quote yeah. Also; who would've thought that (one of) the least prepared countries would be the US ?! But with the Orange Troll at the helm, it's no surprise.
'We,' being humanity. And 'worst prepared country,' being the United States of America. Might have been worth noting that we have more confirmed cases AND deaths than nations with 4x our population size. Literally.

"Like a miracle, it will disappear" - Donald Trump, 2020
start getting used to saying "the 2020s" instead of "2020", because no one is gonna yell "prank'd" one january 1st. this isnt a bad year. this is a bad time.
It's not a bad year, it's the worst possible timeline.
Sans was right. We were gonna have a bad time...
Ironically poetic.
It’s the Darkest Timeline
Supposedly a vaccine won't be available until summer 2021. IF that's successful, death rates go down, and businesses can open... then we're going to be dealing with the economic fallout of long-term unemployment, small business failure, evictions, etc. It's going to take a few years to economically recover from the pandemic. 2020 is just the start.
John Oliver's always the most upbeat person. 😆👍 By the way with long-time fan show.

As a gay man that literally survived the eighties I can confidently say, Regan was a GD monster.
I was born right at the cusp of his term. I'm glad you're still with us, dude. He was a psycho, from everything that I have known about him.
@Cammdc 1 that's a rough one. Reagan disregarded certain groups, while the rancid orange stain disregards everyone, including his own family. I suppose he's just broken the scale.
@Cammdc 1 Hmmm. Not having lived through Regan myself, I would have to say that it's hard to do a direct comparison that way. Regan was hard into the religious conservatism, he truly believed that the people being hurt were being hurt due to God's will. He was evil and a monster, but not maliciously so. At least not by intent. So, on pure vile, evilness, I think he probably beats Trump (but, again, not outright malevolent evilness). He also wasn't an total moron, at least not in the way Trump is. On to Trump, though, he's is outright maliciously and malevolently evil. He also wishes for an authoritarianism that we haven't seen in a very long time (openly anyway, it's hard to say what the end goal for some of them was). The biggest saving grace of things so far has been his and his administration's general incompetency. They'd be further along if not for their own stupidity. So they win massive points on that front. In a head to head? It's just hard to say, for all their similarities, they're very different.

_"The whole world is laughing at us, they are laughing at the stupidity of our president." - Donald Trump_
Personally I am laughing with you
Aged like fine wine
Trump showed remarkable prescience there. It's true now.
Actually the world is laughing at the fact that you had to choose between Trump and Hillary.
Trump may not speak as well as Obama but he has the toughness of a businessman. Instead of just words, he takes action. Nobody did anything about the intellectual thefts that have been going on for years. It’s about time our leaders do something about it. I am glad about all the sanctions we place on chip and chip making equipments.
Good job sir. You own part of the win.
Wow! That last part made me cry
If you are interested in the WHO's eradication of smallpox, "Demon in the Freezer" is a great book to read. Really puts into perspective both the devastating effects the disease had on communities as well as the monumental effort that was needed to stamp it out of existence.
Remember the debates over destroying remaining samples at the hot labs at CDC Atlanta and Vestra Moscow.
Richard Preston's whole oeuvre is well worth the time. Great books all.
great book!
We hope it IS eradicated! The current concern is the thawing of the permafrost... and the old graves that have remained frozen in it for centuries. When indigenous people in the Arctic died of smallpox their bodies immediately froze rather than begin decomposing. As the permafrost thaws and heaves, the bodies in the old graves also thaw. Those with smallpox (Variola major) may still contain live bacteria that is will be released into the environment. WHO and the CDC don't like to talk about it, but the problem remains: Will the smallpox virus survive freezing and thawing?
@@krisaaron5771 Finally someone mentioned that. Given the global warming, it's a bigger deal by the year.
When he was talking about the orgy, he forgot about the person who has to watch people's clothes and bags. Seriously important, you don't want someone seeking off and stealing everything.
Also people who will call cabs in places where alcohol is present or valet the cars. Even smaller swing houses have about 6 to 10 staff members, between servers, patrons and security, let alone on big orgy events.

@@tyndaleverwer4509 If you're referring to the refusal to show the story about the hard drive, you'll also have to ask yourself: 1. Why did so many refuse to take the story? 2. Why didn't Hunter come back for the laptops that supposedly had such incriminating evidence on it? 3. Why did they wait a year to say anything, and only reveal it right before the election? 4. Why not just pull some fingerprints or DNA to prove it belonged to Hunter? 5. why are all the tech nerds, even the Trump supporting ones, saying this is bullshit? and 6. Is Hunter Biden Joe Biden?
