So, let's do this? People welcome to the daily social distancing, show from Trevor's couch in New York City to York, couch somewhere in the world. This is the daily social distancing, show
let's kick things off, but the ongoing crisis in Texas, where half a million residents were still without power. Today and more than two hundred zero were without clean water, because treatment plants are failing and pipes are bursting, Texans have been lining up for clean water from public spigots boiling their own or even trying to melt snow yeah melting snow for clean water. I mean you know that the infrastructure is screwed when your best option for water is to mug a snowman, but the saddest part is that these people are the lucky ones, because it turns out one poor Texan had to travel eight hundred miles just to get hates water and electricity centre TED crews. He is now facing a whole lot of questions after he was spy on a plane travelling to Cancan Mexico. In the midst of this unfold,
crisis in his home state of Texas, fiscal and social media? You will see social media uses posting multiple pictures of the senator. Family in the use and airport waiting to board their flight No marry you. Me shitting me dude, your people are literally eating snow right now and you getting off to can cool a money than mad that you, a selfish man, that you were so still How can you be in politics for ten years and still have no idea how bad this would make you look when were you thinking? I know my people are freezing and hungry right now, so what they need is a photo of my beach bard, because if they see me in a speedo, their eyes will burst into flames and the whole family can warm their hands over those flames. I mean Look I get that ten cruisers tired and all the members of the break off trying so hard to overthrow the government, but this is not the time TED when your constituents said they need
clean water, they didn't mean go, find a wet tissue contest. In can coom I mean seeing Tom Cruise skipped. Town for the beach has been very frustrating for the people in Texas but on the other hand has been really exciting for all the people in Cancun who got to meet him on the street wow bro. I didn't know that senior frog was a real guy. That was awesome and, what's even worse, is that when he got caught instead of owning up to it and apologizing, he acted did like a total Cruz breaking right. Now, an update on the reports to Texas, Senator TED Cruz took a trip to Cancun, as the state was dealing with massive power outages, something that had many of you upset online. The statement from Cruz, saying in part, with school, cancel for week, our girls ass, to take a trip with friends wanting to be a good dad. I flew down with them last night and I'm flying back this afternoon. Oh, I see we ve got this
wrong. Ten crews wasn't going on vacation people, he was just Chaperonage, his girls on the flight took an cool so and so in some way, this was like a reverse: take I want you to know that I'm a man with absolutely no skills whatsoever and I'm gonna safely accompany my daughter's on this trip seriously. Ted cruised blaming his daughter for this is just gross being a good father means putting them on a bus, not throwing them under one. Lord should be fair, maybe TED Cruz, just doesn't What a good dad is! I mean his dead, killed. J F K hoof, but let's move on now to the place people wish they consented. Crews, maws, it's the next frontier in space and home to a legendary puff. Starling Bruno will now scientists
about to find out. If anyone else has lived there this morning, one giant leap towards finding out is there was life on Mars. The Mars rover perseverance successfully touched down on the red planet. The successful landing will kick off, NASA's most ambitious mission, yet the rover after travelling three hundred million miles in seven months will touch down on an ancient lay called gives Europe a site ancient life may have been best preserved. The most dangerous part of the mission begins when the Rover enters Mars's atmosphere appear, had known as the seven minutes of terror. Yes, the seven minutes of terror, and I'm terrified too, spend three billion dollars on room, but please work. Please work, please work best buy, won't. Take this back please, but luckily, it landed safely and now we're all getting and look at laws which we need, because things are going so great here on earth
I mean you notions bad in your neighborhood when you start looking at the zoo listings for other planets, although if you are me, you don't need to be digging in the dirt and analyzing soil samples to some. Eyes of life on laws. If you want to if anyone lives there just go up there and shout cancel culture, isn't real? Someone will pop out from behind the rock like tell that to Chris Harrison, even if they don't find life, though this is still a huge deal to learn. A new rover on the Red planets and the next step for human life is to stand Stacy Abrams up there to turn a blue. You can do it stacy. You can turn acting blue girl, but let's move on now to our top story. Covered may not be gone yet, but our patients for it, Definitely is so as the vaccine roller continues. America is figuring out how to reopen it. Schools and that heated debates is the topic of our brand new segment. Getting there
to normal is one of the big tragedies of the coronavirus pandemic has been the school closings that are forcing all american students into online classes and impacts everyone, students, teachers, parents, next door, neighbours who can hear your zoom school through the wall, while they're trying to record a teenager. And, ultimately, a year of remote learning, President Biden has made real opening schools, one of his top priorities, sort of
President Biden promised to have schools reopened in his first one hundred days. I think it's time for school reopened safely, but the White House is struggling to explain what they mean by schools being opened. The cdc rolled out its guidelines for reopening schools, much to the frustration of some stressed out, parents and students who have been looking for a way back to in person learning the CDC guidelines, focus on five strategies for in person, learning, including universal mask, wearing physical distancing, handwashing cleaning and contact tracing, but the CDC also recommended full in person learning return only in places where levels of community transmission are low. The problem right now, Almost ninety percent of american children attend schools located in high community spread areas, so called red zones. Okay, it's good to finally have guidelines for how open schools during a pandemic, but it's coming discouraging the
guidelines or try not to have a pandemic. In your area can like yeah. That would be nice, but we want to keep going to Tgi Fridays such a plan b. But what we expect opening schools is, so to twine with a global pandemic that it's bound to be difficult. If anything, it's a lesson to not make campaign promises, because if schools can't open in his first one hundred as what's Biden, gonna do he's gonna have to wiggle his way. Out of this, I meant one hundred business days. Then schools will be open, although obviously no one should be inside the schools, but the doors will be unlocked. Just like I promised, but Joe Biden is rights safely. Reopening schools needs to be a priority, and you know the things are better.
When even kids are complaining that schools are still closed all across the country. Students are facing unprecedented challenges, we're all really struggling. Basically, it's I miss my friends and I feel like I'm missing out on a big part of high school. I really only got to be in person for my freshman year in the classroom. Things are comfortable and easy, but at home things are very difficult and intend it's hard to pay attention during class when you have to be like in front of a screen. Twenty, like almost the entire day, I need a break from my mom haggis need to go back to school. One second, greater wrote this foreign assignment on Martin Luther King Day. I have dream. I want schools to open, but I can't do anything about it. That is so cute.
Oh my god, but it's not the point of the assignment. I ring the instructions next time. I actually feel bad for these students. No child should have to spend six hours a day staring at a boring screen. That's what you're, twenty three or late sixties afore, but he's pretty weird to hear kids say that they want to go back to school again. This pandemic has done that to everybody every adult I know is like. Oh, my god, I can't wait to have an airplane sitting in that middle seat squash between two people's armpits, while the flight attendant tells me that they're all out of the good crackers? Oh, I can't wait- and this is about more than just kids feeling cooped up, there's some evidence that their education is suffering and that their mental health definitely is stressed out, they're depressed and not to mention having them on. The computer at home is incredibly disruptive for the parents who have to work. I mean. Imagine
renting a sales meeting right when you kids teacher, is getting to that end of Charlotte web. So, as you can see, third quarter projections are really week. She dies. So it's no surprise that many parents are saying schools should just open up. No man What and when that doesn't happen, they blaming the teachers. The country anger from parents is boiling over or do not have the polio much of their anger, directed at the teachers union, our school board,
for God, who the primary benefactors and the primary reason for their existence is that's two hundred and eighty seven thousand students in this county. We can talk what teachers being afraid to go to work are groceries, workers afraid to go to work. Are doctors and nurses, afraid you're gonna work? Yes, but they got because an essential service, some teachers who are benefiting from changing at home- and you may be reason I don't wanna go back ten years. The teachers posting I social media about going out to restaurants in other countries. It also posting a daunting. Schools are safe and don't wanna go back, go to work or quit it's time to pooper get off the pot. It's such a shame that parents have to fight with teachers over the safety of our schools. It would make you missed the days before the pandemic, when all they fought over was teaching evolution and toward the parents out there. I know that these are unprecedented scary times, but please don't forget, teaches on not the enemy.
Okay, your children are the enemy. If their dumb asses didn't need to be educated, nobody would be fighting at all. So if kids are antsy and parents are angry, why? On teachers going back to their classrooms? Well I mean maybe there are some teachers who, just like working from home, for one thing: it's a lot harder for school shoot it to get you a resume and indefinitely knows better than being in a class full of eighth graters, but most teachers were schools to reopen as much as anyone else and they ve seen the report saying that it should be done as safely as possible. The problem is that much like nude beaches. What sounds good in theory? doesn't necessarily match the reality. The recent CDC study says there's little evidence for transmission in schools where precautions are met, but some
Teachers Union say school systems do not have these Colbert. Nineteen precautions in place for a safe reopening, we have very old ventilation systems in our building and, as you can see, there is not one fin stole into our building right now. Just because there isn't much contribution to community transmission doesn't mean that there isn't individual risk to the teachers and staff who are working in the schools. I wanna go back, but I dont want. I want I'm not risking my like my family's, like the kids not does teasing dates should prioritized teacher vaccinations, but should open schools even if they can't dodge a problem for some teacher groups who have been urging schools to vaccinate educators before say, back into a classroom. Teachers are being left to run around to try to make their own appointments at pharmacies to get vaccinated. Like some sort of bizarre, Hunger, game situation, yeah teachers out on the street fighting for vaccines like it's the hunger games,
kudos to that guy by the way for working in a reading lesson into his interview, because he's like I, he'll totally disillusioned with the american dream, much like the titular character and the great Gatsby and I'm not going to lie. All of this has made me a little confused about what America actually believes in when it comes to supporting a teacher. Could right now. It feels like this mixed messages. Teachers need to carry guns so that they can keep themselves safe in schools. Could we get a vaccine so that we can be safe in the schools, now stuck up your cards? But, more importantly, if opening schools is a priority, then We should act like it and it should give teaches the resources and the protection that they need, not only because it will get schools open again, but because the least you can do for teachers in return for them expenditure, your kids, how sex works are right. When we come back we'll find out how Tucker Carson
got that way and Russell Westbrook is still joining me on the show, so don't go away, away from it all, but only for like four hours then come to Cancun.

Don't you know, don't you out? Let's talk about agriculture and Fox NEWS host and America's Dickie Step brother yesterday Fox announced that Coulson will be an even bigger presence at the network with upon cost and the series of specials. But is how to talk of costs and become the legend. Many is today well to find out. Here's the first instalment of our brain. You said the Daily show Ography what makes a legendary journalist gravitas, honesty. I so. Piercing making give you a nose, ring its adaptability and no one's better at that, then
Karlsson, man of a thousand faces, but also somehow only one face Tucker. Wants and MC near Karlsson. His father was journalists. And U S ambassador to the Seychelles. A popular vacation spot for people's money has stepmom was an arrests, wants and frozen foods, a heritage he's they'll pays tribute to with his trademark frozen facial expressions. He has a brother Buckley, once and pack Karlsson Euro really need to know anything about him. But how about those names, others might have tried. To downplay their wealth, but don't playing was never Tucker styled one workers extraordinarily loaded, just load it just like money I inherited, but I've never needed to work. He didn't need to work. We can be living in a way Edward Tucker, Bronson Mc Karlsson, isn't on tv every night, but luckily for America that didn't happen after com, which Tucker took his talents to journalism,
to prominence as the liberals, favorite conservative, everyone, tat, he seemed normal and on white, supremacist III, Tucker Swan Lake Mc Nord Stream Karlsson took that palatable conservatism to CNN and PBS, eventually becoming their perpetually BO tied coast of sin and cross fire there. He helped er cable moves away from meaningful discourse and for towards people shouting talking points at each other. Like a housewives reunion, it was going great until one day when a comedy central extremists infiltrated the sets and rec havoc your partisan. What do you call it hacks? now this is theater. I mean it's. No, how old are you thirty? Five wear a tie after surviving that ugly attack Tucker made the difficult decision to revive desperate times, call for desperate tuckers so
butterfly emerge from yet another cocoon and flew to MSNBC, where he was both respected and likable. Someone you you could definitely like, like Lauer Lauer. Who is pals with him back then, Rachel Maddow to see now like emperor palpitating going to brunch with baby Yoda Carlson's low Rated MSNBC gay didn't last long, but his purse a bland only grew stronger. He was not The rest until the world knew all thirty six of his names flunked out of tv twice tub her see. Miss Macduff Karlsson began rebuilding his journalism clear by working with one of radio most respected broadcasters Bubba the love sponge, where he was able to channel his inner shocked John. I love women. The barracks grimly primitive you're talking to a feminine given here. Well, you know that really to be more sensitive and no actually usually
Why don't you what you're told, depending under age, marriage at off? I just don't think it's the same thing exactly as pulling a child from a bizarre and sexually assaulted. The weakest in this case is maybe lifelong commitment. The women take care of the person is a little rock, is a crappy place filled with a bunch of semi literate or monkey candidates. I called them our retarded cousin. She just does seem a little. Can you said it? I'm just agreeing with one thing couldn't be denied, took our car. Also said all that out loud on purpose. Knowing other people would hear him Plenty of people would be proud to coastline, calling women the sea were, but not Tucker into them. Ten. He remained himself yet again as a public intellectual behind the new website, the daily collar soon was ready for his most important role, yet Fox NEWS, superhero Tucker Van
pump, make red Karlsson was home, and this time he became something completely new, a man of the people Democrats who become the party of the elite professional, classed eager to lecture you about open borders, global warming from their gated communities, the most privileged people, our society, shouting down at from voters damning working class Americans. You must not be quiet. Tucker. You went to the elite. Schools of this kind did idea. We should I know it is a. It was the performance of a life, an aristocrat who spend his entire adult life working in media, acting as if he had just crawled out of the coal mines and sat in front of a tv camera in Karlsson, wasn't afraid to use his new cloud to uplift, the most needy among us, people who hate emigrants
our leaders, worship, multiculturalism, because all cultures are equal except they're, not all equal, our civilization is superior and we need to defend it. Latin american countries are forcing demographic change on this country to rate that american voters consistently say they don't want. We have a moral obligation to admit the world's poor. They tell us, even if it makes our country poor and dirtier and more divided. Isn't it he's crowding your country the fastest way to despoil eggs? two polluted tougher swamp thing gross Carlson. Look like a beautiful reverse statue of liberty, telling everyone to get their tired huddle masses out of here, but any Fox news host could hate immigrants. In fact, most of them did so Tucker up to the anti. How precisely is diverse city or strength you get along better with your neighbors, your co workers, if you can't understand each other or share noakes
in values, white supremacy, that's the problem! This is a hoax. This may be a lot of things this moment we're living through, but it is definitely not about black lives and remember that when they come for you at this rate they will. We have every right to fight to preserve our nation and our heritage and our culture muskets of the African, the area associated with submissiveness is larger than any human or any other self human species on planet earth Tucker was on fire like a cross on a black families, but as twenty twenty one began was once again restless for a change so Karlsson, put on yet another hat this time made of ten points
Democrats rigged the election in front of all of us and nobody did anything about it and what about this vaccine? Why are Americans being discouraged from asking simple, straightforward questions about it? Questions like how effective are these drugs? Are they safe and by the way? How much are the drug companies making off this stuff? The Biden's affection is totally real. It's in no way part of a slick, pr campaign divided by cynical consultants, determined to hide the president's senility by misdirection, not at all their love is this real? Is climate change a little nut, well, maybe Unlike like the moon, landing or a forty four, your marriage, you can't fake ratings like this and well yes, at least one person did sue for defamation. A judge dismiss the case on the grounds that any reasonable viewer knows that even things Tucker Sesar facts are not actual facts, so whenever the future holds for him. One thing we No, is that Tucker Severus Mcfly Karlsson will do it with a smile

In with a simple welcome back to the daily social listens and show. Only of today I spoke with MBA superstar, an philanthropist Russell Westbrook. We talked about his foundation, his new doktor series on the Tulsa race Massacre, and so much more
Russia, Westbrook welcome to the danish social. This essential ligament they love me. I appreciate I appreciate, and now you are easily one of the most electric NBA players of all time. You are a new team. And you living in a new city. I would love to know two things one. What is it like? Moving to a new city during covered and chew, do you ever get used to living in new places? Well, you know the first thing is moving doing. Kobe has been crazy. Unfortunately, you know price. In my wife, I have to take more responsibility of getting the kids, and can everything acclimated find new place to stay. Biggest around the city travel safely and make sure we do the right things and right wing, Kabila, Kabila, crazy, because the kids don't make it easy. Sleep scheduling, get everything that is a bit of a bank authorities, take ashore the gains and found me here.
Are doing great and ass. The most difficult for I can kind of manage, figured out what right regretted the kids is the most important part, do you ever get used to just living in a new city. You know what it's crazy, because the last three two years for me has been very difficult in the past. I was in Oklahoma for eleven years ten years and then I went to Houston for the year and then covert hit and I went back to LA and then got traded to DC and it's been very different for me in the past. It didn't work of everybody around because it binding everybody knows I'm very routine tat. A person can kind of it to be
same place all its armed and has been very difficult for me at times by unhappy. I got my family years makes it easy for me to transition easing and team and organizations been amazing in people's being re, so this model has stopped pistol, follow what about that routine, the routine before you play a game if one interesting parts of of your life for me- and that is what Russell Westbrook is gonna, where before game, you want literally a walking fashion, it's like Paris Fashion Week, all the time who is dressing you and how do you stay ahead of the trends? The way you do because it's never like boring. It's never like man. Russell Westbrook is like no, no, no he's always ahead of the curve. Well, I'm dressing myself number one Trevor. I think to me: that's the most unique thing about it is that I wake up and I just go for what I feel
fashion is something that I personally love to do and embrace the ability to be able to express myself. To close, I think that's right. I wake up, I can be like. Oh, I want to be when wear yellow, I want to wear pink. I want to wear green. I want to wear baggy clothes are want to wear a suit, that's the best for to buy it, and I just go with it. I think that's nice parliament makes Russell Westbrook such an interesting characters like you know, for so many athletes. We only know them in sport so what I want I wasn't enjoyed about getting to know you, as a person is like some of the things that you do with its the love of fashion with is the love of your community, like you talked about Oklahoma, for instance, eleven years in Oklahoma, and what would I appreciate it was you loved, open homer, Oklahoma loved you. You know you learned about the city, you ingratiated yourself to the people, and now you ve taken that a step further and you can be creating a film about the story of what happened in Tulsa. The burning of Tulsa taught me
a little bit about that and then why you felt it was so important for you to get involved in telling that story. Yeah minutes it's crazy because in Okla like you mentioned for eleven years or so I was able to kind of connect with the people, have to connect with the history of the community and to meet as the most important part in being able to travel to Tulsa caught up in back to my user, and I don't know anything about the tells the mask of black watery I'm until I got there and in once I heard about it. I was in shocked because I was surprised that nobody especially are or african american you. These are people who have black on business. Don't understand and didn't understand, impacted the mask had on the world, and how can you know change our future? In ITALY? I was lucky enough to be reconnect with daily and be able to create.
History create this docu series to be able to not just to show everybody what happened but educate ourselves to be able to now in the future, find ways to be able to help impact on communities, especially our black this is the kind of left him. You definitely Dunlap with you all foundation, my favorite foundation, name the. Why not foundation! I love it because it's just about why not man? Let's do it, feels like Russell. His book is like why not Why can't we do it? Why can't we we'd better? Why not do these things, you, you, you ve, always believed and going into communities finding youth that have been left behind, finding youth that don't have opportunities, educating them and what you doing now. At the front is: is you working really hard to get kids in tech, tech and computer literacy, which is a slightly new direction for you? I think the biggest part especially with the foundation, we kind of started in two thousand and twelve, and I wanted to start an education and making sure our use was educated and having books and resources and as I've gotten older and been able to
see what's important away that I warn our society is gonna moving one. If I wasted bamberger, you know in has two the to find different, different avenues in more for now, we ve been, like you mentioned can interact and work in a workforce. Development, and on a mental health emits alone. Decide as well. Not foundation is to me is very important because a lot of people can you know you can read it yet. You can do anything. You ve got money. If your kid from the city, you don't actually feel that impact reason, I'm doesnt really changing life, and I know that personally because I lived it to me- commissioner, I can be the voice. I can be the person that those kids are used. Look to say no. He came back to her You mean he helped us he's. There was access. He gave us a bit be able to change our lives and change the where we live in one of the saddest stories of professional sports and sometimes even the entertainment industry. So many black people wouldn't people from just
You know. Poor communities get a lot of money and a little bit of time and then a few years, their career and it's all gone and they broke, and then the cycle continually like men. What have knows an opportunity that has lost now that happens on and on and on one a level as well just everyday in communities, as you know, managing money learning how to create money. Learning how to grow money is something that not everybody is taught you passionate about that and you You knew teaming up with Varro right now to work on that. Just woke me through what you gonna, be doing an end and why this was what you wanted to get an odyssey, I'm so grateful for warm, because we, as a team internally been trodden forgot. You know the right partners to be able to get in understand financial lunacy, understanding the finance gap in our society, understanding the systemic find it inequality that we face. You know today
and especially in the finance World World Man is, is unbelievable partner. The first all digital bank with a national national charter, which is important because it allows them to be to help. Everybody not just one particular area, and we are going to ask him to give help people marching, checking and give them better. It means understand about credit, carver educate them on exactly what has happened because, as we know, As you mentioned, are underserved communities in our committees of color have struggled over over many many years, and I have plagued us and to me, I want to make sure that I can be the person to step into that space and partner with unbelievable, Finally, has the same mission in my eyes to help our undeserving and help our own, and communities in to me, I think it's a opportunity in a very, very excited by so you know it's funny. I will. I was chatting to a friend of mine about all the things that you do.
Was like? Oh yeah use it books going to be on the few show and he's like? Oh, are you going on for us? It's like? No, he does all these things and my friend said the funniest thing ever he's like wow. He said I thought Russell Westbrook was an asshole he's, an old guy. Oh my goodness, and I do you ever? Do you ever have that? Where people see you on the court and Gotta gain face and they like me, you don't want to talk to Russia Westport, but you like a soft guy who loves helping people given get that sugar is crazy missing.
