00:00Tonight, Kerry Washington, Congressman Eric Swalwell, and music, The Lord Huron, with The Klee Tones.
00:09And now, Jimmy Kimmel.
00:13Hi!
00:25I appreciate that. Hi, Jimmy.
00:28Hey, guys. What's happening? I'm Jimmy.
00:31Thank you for watching. Thanks for being here.
00:36Thanks for joining us.
00:38And I would like to welcome our viewers watching from around the country,
00:42all around the world. A special hello to those of you who are watching from the White House,
00:47and you know who you are.
00:51I woke up this morning. I'm in bed. My wife comes out of the bathroom.
00:54She's got her phone. She goes, um, Trump tweeted you should be fired again.
01:00I was like, oh. And then I went downstairs and made bagels for the kids.
01:05Late last night, the Angry Orange posted,
01:08why does ABC Fake News keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with no talent, and very poor television ratings, on the air?
01:14Why do the TV syndicates put up with it?
01:17Also, totally biased coverage.
01:20Get the bum off the air.
01:23I'm the bum. I'm the bum.
01:26And he posted this. I think this is interesting.
01:29At 1249 AM, 11 minutes after the show ended on the East Coast, which is nice.
01:34He watches us live.
01:35Hi, Mr. President.
01:37How are you?
01:39Thanks for watching us on TV instead of on YouTube.
01:44We appreciate that.
01:45And I'll tell you, it's viewers like you who keep us on the air, ironically.
01:49It's also sweet that even in the middle of the biggest sex scandal in the history of the American presidency,
01:55he takes precious time on the toilet to post about our show.
01:59Keep saying we have bad ratings, and you should listen to him, because if anyone knows about bad ratings, it's that guy.
02:06President Trump's approval rating is tanking.
02:09Plunging to a new low.
02:11A new low even among Republicans.
02:13That's the lowest level of his second term.
02:15That is the lowest. It's been in his second term.
02:17It is at a low of the second term.
02:19The lowest of his second term.
02:20La aprobación del Presidente Donald Trump se destroma a los niveles más bajos.
02:24Más bajos? What does that mean, Guillermo?
02:26His rating is very low.
02:28Oh, so that's bad?
02:29Yeah. Bajo, bajo, no. Yes.
02:31I have honestly lost count now of how many times the president has demanded I be pulled off the air.
02:36I mean, talk about a snowflake.
02:38This guy, every five weeks, he flips out and wants me fired.
02:41If you got this many threats from a neighbor, you'd have no problem getting a restraining order.
02:45The judge would be like, yeah, sounds like the guy's nuts.
02:48Boom.
02:49It's disturbing.
02:50You know, and you've done this before.
02:52You tried to get me fired in September.
02:54It didn't work.
02:55Mr. President, I admire your tenacity.
03:01If you're watching tonight, which I presume you are, how about this?
03:05I'll go when you go, okay?
03:07It would be a team.
03:11Let's ride off into the sunset together like Butch Cassidy and the suntan kid.
03:17And until then, if I may borrow a phrase from you, quiet, piggy.
03:22You never stop.
03:23He has his minions at the FCC now launching what they call a review of the relationship
03:32between TV affiliates and the TV networks, no doubt because of what happened last time
03:37they tried to strangle me.
03:39He's threatening ABC News.
03:41He's been trying to get Seth Meyers fired.
03:43And we learned today from The Guardian that Trump's billionaire buddy Larry Ellison
03:47and his son David Ellison, who are the biggest stockholders in Paramount
03:51and are now competing to buy CNN.
03:53The Guardian reported that Larry Ellison had a call with the White House,
03:56during which they engaged in dialogue about firing some of the CNN hosts
04:01Trump doesn't like, including Breonna Keillor and Aaron Burnett.
04:05I think this is some kind of choose-your-own-news-anchor situation.
04:08I mean, goodbye, Wolf Blitzer.
04:10Hello, Dog the Bounty Hunter.
04:12That's what the president wants.
04:13He wants every channel to be Newsmax.
04:15And this Newsmax, they are funny, man.
04:18Even the news in North Korea is like, eh, it's too much.
04:21This morning, they rallied around Dear Miss Leader,
04:24defending him against this preposterous idea that I would in any way
04:29connect him to the Epstein files.
04:31I want to listen to Kimmel's words on this.
04:34Because what he said was in jest, but it wasn't.
04:37We finally get to find out if the president is linked to this.
04:41There are 50,000 documents.
04:44If there was something with the president, wouldn't we have seen it by now?
04:49Absolutely.
04:50I mean, we had a very contentious election last year.
04:54And most certainly, they would have diverged this information to the American public.
05:01I think we just diverged from the English language.
05:05The word is divulge, FYI.
05:09I think this lady went to the same law school as Kim Kardashian.
05:12Amanda Maki is her name.
05:15She might not be much of a lawyer, but I will say this.
05:17She has quite an eye for interior design.
05:22If you excuse me, I have to run.
05:24They're shooting a porn here in 20 minutes.
05:27I'm not sure what exactly it was that set Trump off last night.
05:31I make fun of him every night.
05:33Maybe he was upset because he was feeling left out.
05:36You know, he wasn't invited to Dick Cheney's memorial this morning.
05:39All the other dignitaries were.
05:42Listen, all you need to know about what an explosively unstable disaster this man is for this country
05:48is that Dick Cheney, Dick Cheney voted for not just a liberal Democrat,
05:53a black female liberal Democrat over him, his fellow conservative Republican.
06:00That's it.
06:01You don't need to know anything else to know what a garden hose full of diarrhea this presidency has been.
06:08Trump did finally sign that bill to release the Epstein files.
06:11He signed the bill and posted this giant run-on sentence,
06:15taking credit for the fact that the bill got passed.
06:19It wouldn't have passed without him.
06:20Another legislative triumph.
06:22They even had a little signing ceremony to celebrate the full release.
06:26Okay, let's go.
06:27Could I ask you to say exactly what this is?
06:30Of course.
06:31So as you've consistently identified, sir, the Epstein files must be released.
06:35The American people have the right to know about all the filthy, dirty things your friends were up to.
06:39To what area is it coming?
06:41To potentially anywhere below the belt.
06:44This means the penis, the balls, the taint.
06:47McDonough Sarasa had something he wanted to give you.
06:52So on behalf of all the federal law enforcement agencies that we're working with,
06:57and those that have yet to join the team,
06:59we thought it was only appropriate to present you with this commemorative little condom.
07:08You're going to lie.
07:09That's a very great honor.
07:11I'll save that and put it someplace up, which is important.
07:14Thank you very much.
07:15This is a Republican Democrat.
07:19And by the way, most Democrats agree with us.
07:22But this is just, we've got to bring our country back.
07:29There you go.
07:30So now the Justice Department has 30 days to release the files,
07:36which will make for a very Merry Christmas indeed.
07:38I have a prediction for the next 30 days.
07:40I think we're going to see Trump do some of the craziest shit yet.
07:44I think he's taking it up to 11 in the next 30 days.
07:47He's already started.
07:48A group of six Democratic lawmakers,
07:50all of whom served in the military and or the intelligence community,
07:54are so concerned about the way he's been using our troops,
07:57they made a video reminding members of the armed forces
08:00that they are not legally required to follow illegal orders.
08:05Our laws are clear.
08:06You can refuse illegal orders.
08:08You can refuse illegal orders.
08:11You must refuse illegal orders.
08:13No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution.
08:17Don't give up.
08:18Don't give up.
08:19Don't give up.
08:20Don't give up.
08:21Don't give up the ship.
08:22And of course, that did not go over well with Genghis Khan man.
08:26He wrote, this is really bad and dangerous to our country.
08:30Their words cannot be allowed to stand.
08:32Seditious behavior from traitors.
08:35Lock them up.
08:36He was so upset, he all capsed his pants on this one.
08:39Seditious behavior.
08:41Punishable by death.
08:43Which, you know, is one of the worst punishments there is.
08:46It's even worse than losing your TV show, for instance.
08:49No big deal, though.
08:50Just the President of the United States musing about Congress people being executed.
08:55Kim Dong Un went so far off the deep end, his spokes niece, Caroline Leavitt, had to answer
09:01one of the weirdest questions a White House press secretary has ever been asked.
09:05This morning, President Trump accused six Democratic lawmakers of seditious behavior punishable
09:12by death.
09:13Just to be clear, does the President want to execute members of Congress?
09:17No.
09:18Okay.
09:19That's early.
09:22You know what?
09:23He spent all day yesterday with that Saudi prince.
09:25He just got a little murdery.
09:26It happens.
09:27You hang around with the wrong crowd.
09:29And then sweet little Caroline had defender boss calling a reporter piggy on his plane.
09:34What did the President mean when he called reporter piggy?
09:38Look, the President is very frank and honest with everyone in this room.
09:43You've all seen it yourself.
09:44You've all experienced it yourselves.
09:46And I think it's one of the many reasons that the American people reelected this President,
09:51because of his frankness.
09:52So I think the President being frank and open and honest to your faces, rather than hiding
09:58behind your backs, is frankly a lot more respectful than what you saw in the last administration.
10:02That's right.
10:03Frankly, his frankness is what makes him so great.
10:06If anything, we should be franking him for calling them pigs.
10:11Sinatra's wife didn't use the word frank that much.
10:14Meanwhile, with the President busy wishing death on his enemies and comparing the media
10:18to pork, the First Lady was in North Carolina rallying the Marines.
10:22Good afternoon, Camp Lejeune.
10:26It has been a memorable day and an honor to meet the men and women of the United States Marine Corps.
10:35Guys, she speaks 25 languages. Give her a break already. What?
10:39And in the future, it's a silent pee. Like when your husband wets the bed.
10:43I wonder if Melania is going to be at the White House Peace Summit tomorrow, because that is going to be something.
10:50Trump is opening the doors of the Oval Office to the incoming mayor of New York, and he's being very gracious about it.
10:57He wrote, Communist mayor of New York City, Zoran Kwame Mamdani, has asked for a meeting.
11:03Now that is going to be fun. The ultra liberal Muslim mayor of New York sitting down with the MAGA gorilla.
11:09I mean, if that isn't a metaphor for everyone's Thanksgiving dinner this year, I don't know what is.
11:15This guy Mamdani is a young, charismatic, very attractive American who was born in a country whose name the president can't pronounce.
11:27If he isn't careful, Trump might make him his next wife.
11:30And one more thing before we forge ahead. It is Thursday night, and that means it's time for a shout out to our friends at the FCC, who we know are watching so closely.
11:38It is time to bleep and blur the big TV moments of the week, whether they need it or not.
11:42It is this week in Unnecessary Censorship.
11:49It's from Jeffrey Epstein in 2011, and he says the that hasn't is Trump.
11:55I was called a traitor by a man that I f***ed for five, no, actually six years for.
12:03And I gave him my f***y for free.
12:06You really did. You f***ed us very well, and I even got Bobby Kennedy to eat a big f***y.
12:12And he told me he loved it.
12:14President Trump continues to f*** Jimmy Cannelly. He did so again last night on Truth Social.
12:18More people can f***ing. It's bringing the community together for the very first affordable f***ing expo at the home of Saudi Arabia.
12:25Let's go back to the White House. We're standing by to see the president and first lady f***ing Saudi crown prince.
12:30Presumably, he's washed the blood off his f***ing.
12:32There's a lot of things I'd like to do that in BlackRock. There's a lot of things I'd like to say to BlackRock, and even on cable, I won't do that.
12:38President Trump has said that he'll f*** the b***, so how quickly will he do so?
12:42He hasn't indicated how soon he may f*** that b***, David.
12:46I'll be honest, I'd love to f*** his ass.
12:49The category is what's it the f***?
12:53Think about that, Aaron. As you spin, good luck.
12:58All right, we've got a very good show for tonight. Congressman Eric Swalwell is with us.
13:03We have music from Lord Huron, and we will be right back with Kerry Washington.
13:17Hey, welcome back.
13:18Tonight, representing the 14th Contextual District of California, Congressman Eric Swalwell is with us.
13:25And then later, here in Los Angeles, their album is called The Cosmic Selector Volume 1, music from Lord Huron.
13:33Next week, we're working next week, Guillermo. We've got new shows with Jim Gaffigan, Kate Beckinsale, Kristen Bell, and Dak Shepard will be with us.
13:42And we'll have music from The Neighborhood and De La Soul.
13:45Our first guest tonight has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a costume in the Smithsonian, and a whole state north of Oregon named after her.
13:54Her new movie, Wake Up Dead Man, a Knives Out Mystery, opens in theaters Wednesday and premieres on Netflix December 12th.
14:01Please welcome Kerry Washington.
14:03How are you? Welcome. I'm well.
14:22You know what? You're very upbeat, even though I heard you experienced a medical drama.
14:26I had a little bit of a medical drama this week.
14:29Do you mind saying what happened?
14:30I had a root canal yesterday.
14:32Oh.
14:33I've never had one.
14:34Who in here has had one?
14:35It's traumatizing.
14:36Yeah, people are not, they don't even, like, usually people get excited about anything.
14:40They're like, yay!
14:41But a root canal is like, people describe terrible things as, is getting a root canal like getting a root canal?
14:48Well, my situation was so bad that they had to put me under.
14:53Is that not typical?
14:54I've not had a root canal.
14:55No.
14:56Like, that means the infection is, which is sad to say, but it's really bad.
14:59So they had to knock you out.
15:00Completely.
15:01What did they use to knock you out?
15:02I don't know, but it was good.
15:04I was out.
15:05Well, you do have great teeth.
15:06You have some of the greatest teeth in the world.
15:09Yeah, you do.
15:11They betrayed me.
15:12They betrayed me.
15:13But, you know, I had had this pain.
15:15So here's the, you know, I'm like a Bronx girl, right?
15:17So I, like, grit.
15:18I'm tough.
15:19I have grit.
15:20I grin and bear it.
15:21So I'd had this, like, mild pain for a couple of weeks.
15:23Oh, really?
15:24Oh, for that world?
15:25And I was like, I can make, because I had all this press for Knives Out.
15:27And I was like, I just got to get through it.
15:29I'll go eventually.
15:30And then two nights ago, it took a turn.
15:33And I, like, I couldn't move.
15:35I started crying.
15:36My kids were like, what is wrong?
15:37And so I went to the doctor.
15:38And first, they, like, froze my face.
15:40And they were like, okay, we're going to do the root canal.
15:42And they touched that tooth.
15:43And I could still feel it.
15:44So they were like, we got to put you under.
15:46Oh, yeah.
15:47And it's all good now.
15:48You're all right?
15:49I'm great.
15:50Okay, good.
15:51That's good.
15:52I want to ask you about something you did last month, which I think is interesting.
15:55Tell me.
15:56You went and you were principal for a day at a school here in Los Angeles.
16:00A high school?
16:01Yes, the Roybal School.
16:02So it's the Roybal School for Film and Television Production.
16:04I'm a founding board member of this school, so it's very close to my heart.
16:07It is a school where we prepare students to enter the film and television industry by teaching
16:13editing and production design and hair and makeup and costume design.
16:17So we prepare kids to go to college or go right into the industry.
16:20It's a really...
16:21That's great.
16:22It's a phenomenal place.
16:23It's really exciting.
16:25And so I got to go and be principal for a day.
16:28And what does that mean, being principal for the day?
16:30Well, you're in charge.
16:31You are.
16:32Yes.
16:33I got to have a walkie-talkie.
16:34Oh.
16:35I had these little pouches, because you're not supposed to be on your cell phone.
16:38There's no cell phone policy.
16:39So if you see a kid on your cell phone, you take it away and you put it in the pouch.
16:42My plan was to take a selfie first and then put it in the pouch.
16:44Oh.
16:45But nobody was on their phone, so I didn't get to confiscate any phone.
16:48You didn't want to get pouched.
16:49No.
16:50Were the kids confused by the fact that Kerry Washington was their principal?
16:53Some kids knew.
16:54When I got there, there was a banner that said, like, welcome, Principal Washington.
16:57But some kids were like, because their real principal, Principal Cruz, Blanca Cruz,
17:01who's amazing, she's a phenomenal human being, she plays music with a DJ every morning
17:06for when the kids come in.
17:07So some kids were like, why is Kerry Washington dancing around in front of the school?
17:11Like, what is happening?
17:12But it was really fun.
17:13Is it weird for you that the high school kids still know you?
17:16Because, in fact, one of my buddies, Jason, he and his daughter, Ruby, drove here, like,
17:2090 minutes in the rain because you're on the show.
17:22Because of TikTok.
17:23Because of TikTok.
17:24Like, scandal has had a resurgence on TikTok.
17:28She watches the whole thing on Hulu, I think, and Netflix, right?
17:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:34And so that's kind of a strange thing that it's had a resurgence in that way.
17:38It's pretty wild.
17:39It's pretty awesome.
17:40It's exciting.
17:41Yeah.
17:42And you have a lot of food allergies, right?
17:44I do.
17:45What are you allergic to?
17:46Oh, God.
17:47How much time do you have?
17:48I'm, it's really sad.
17:50All seafood, not just shellfish, all seafood, right?
17:53That's terrible.
17:54Does that include fish?
17:55Yes.
17:56Like, even freshwater fish.
17:58Well, hold on a second.
17:59Now, see.
18:00Yes, right?
18:01Now, am I wrong?
18:02All fish.
18:03So shellfish and fish.
18:05And fish.
18:06Yes.
18:07Yes, okay.
18:08And sesame.
18:09Sesame seeds, sesame oil, so hummus out.
18:11Okay.
18:12All nuts, except for peanuts and almonds.
18:14What?
18:15I know.
18:16The one you're not allowed to have at school?
18:17Yes.
18:18I can have.
18:19I guess you're not allowed to have any of them.
18:20Mango.
18:21Mango.
18:22MSG.
18:23It's ridiculous.
18:24I'm asking.
18:25Guillermo, bring out the plates.
18:27You want to see me explode?
18:30I just heard about this, and I think that, I mean, you must, it must be almost impossible
18:36to eat, huh?
18:37Yeah, I don't.
18:38I usually, like, at all these fancy galas, when they give you, like, plates of food.
18:41Like, at the Met Ball, I'm eating jerky, like, in a bathroom somewhere.
18:45How do you handle it if you go to another country, like, and they...
18:48Oh, I get cards made in the language.
18:50Like, I had these...
18:51I went to Hong Kong this summer, and I had cards made that had, like, pictures of all
18:55the things I'm allergic to and in the language.
18:57Wow.
18:58Yeah.
18:59When I travel places, I have...
19:00That's smart.
19:01I...
19:02I can tell you how to say, like, like, my nampla means, like, no fish sauce in Thai.
19:05Like, I can tell you that.
19:06You can't eat no fish...
19:07Even fish sauce is no good.
19:08Well, it has fish.
19:09Yeah.
19:10Right.
19:11And you're saying fish is the seafood item.
19:13Yes.
19:14So on Thanksgiving, you can eat, like, you can have turkey, right?
19:18I mean, I eat the turkey, but I...
19:20But here's the thing.
19:21I'm able to cook everything.
19:23Even if it has the stuff that...
19:24Yes.
19:25Even if it...
19:26So I, you know, I might have to open a window and, like, turn on a fan.
19:28But I cook seafood.
19:29I cook all the things I'm allergic to.
19:31I cook with tons of sesame oil for the family.
19:33So, yeah.
19:34You do?
19:35I sacrifice.
19:36Oh, so you risk your life on a nightly basis.
19:37I do.
19:38Every day, I risk my life...
19:39You are a hero, not just on the screen.
19:40Yes, that's right.
19:41But in the kitchen, too.
19:42I am.
19:43I know.
19:44All right, we're gonna take a break and we're gonna see a clip from your new film.
19:47Yeah.
19:48Kerry Washington is here.
19:49Her movie is Wake Up, Dead Man, and Live Down Mystery.
19:56Yo, yo.
19:57Hey, Vera.
19:58Hi.
19:59Did you fill this up?
20:00No, thank you.
20:01Hi.
20:02Hey.
20:03Okay.
20:04It's nice having him back.
20:06I've given up a lot to be loyal to my dad and to Cy and to Wix.
20:15So, I think that when my dad is looking down on me from heaven, I think he is very pleased
20:24with me.
20:27So, I guess that's nice.
20:28That is Kerry Washington in Wake Up, Dead Man, A Knives Out Mystery, which is getting
20:36great reviews.
20:37Oh, good.
20:38Now, normally, like a third movie in the series is almost always terrible.
20:43So, congratulations.
20:44Like, Jaws 3.
20:45No, this is...
20:46I love being part of the Knives Out franchise.
20:48It's more like a family than a franchise.
20:49Is it?
20:50Is it though?
20:51It is.
20:52It is.
20:53I mean it.
20:54For reals.
20:55I mean, but a family, usually the family, one of them doesn't get killed.
20:59What family are you from?
21:01My family.
21:02The knives are out.
21:03Yeah.
21:04I mean, I think it's very, like, only a certain kind of actor wants to do an ensemble movie
21:09because nobody gets to be, like, the star.
21:11Everybody has their moments, but it's a very shared creative process.
21:15So, everybody comes with a lot of, like, generosity and joy and a sense of play.
21:20Who else is in the film with you?
21:21Oh, just a bunch of no names, like Josh O'Connor and Glenn Close, Jeremy Renner, Josh Brolin.
21:27I mean, it's insane.
21:29Heavy on Joshes, for sure.
21:30A lot of Joshes.
21:31Daniel Craig is in it.
21:32Daniel Craig is in all of them.
21:33Yes, that's right.
21:34It would be amazing.
21:35He's the through line on those.
21:36Yes, Mila Kunis.
21:37Oh, Mila Kunis.
21:38Yeah.
21:39I'm glad you mentioned that about it being a family because I know that when you were
21:43on Scandal, that was really, like, a family family.
21:46Yeah.
21:47I would say this film experience is, like, the closest thing I've had to that.
21:50Like, we have a wild WhatsApp thread just like Scandal.
21:52You guys would watch the show together on Thursday nights at rotating houses.
21:57Yeah.
21:58It was, like, really like a whole thing to the point where I would then question other actors
22:02on other shows about whether they were as close and they never ever were.
22:07No.
22:08They seem to resent your cast for it.
22:10Where is this going?
22:11Well, I'll tell you where it's going.
22:12We're going to put you to the test tonight.
22:13What do you mean?
22:14OK.
22:15What we're going to do is we're going to blindfold you.
22:17Do you mind being blindfolded?
22:19Just say yes.
22:20How bad could it be?
22:22We're on TV.
22:23OK.
22:24Yeah.
22:25And then what we're going to do is we're going to bring out three men.
22:27OK.
22:28One of those men is a co-star.
22:31Oh, God.
22:32From the show Scandal.
22:33Oh, God.
22:34OK.
22:35Which narrows it down to about 15 men in the world, right?
22:38Yes.
22:39Uh-huh.
22:40Now, blindfolded, I will ask you to feel they're using only your sense of touch and smell,
22:45I guess.
22:46For real?
22:47Smell.
22:48OK, smell.
22:49You can use whatever.
22:50And will they talk?
22:51They will not talk.
22:52Oh, .
22:53So let's, well, first of all, here's your blindfold, if you don't mind.
22:56Put that on.
22:57And I will.
22:58What?
22:59Not the creepy music.
23:00OK.
23:01Send in number one.
23:02Ah!
23:03Carrie, you just, yes.
23:04Stay right there.
23:05OK.
23:06Stay right here.
23:07OK.
23:08I feel very vulnerable.
23:09Oh.
23:10OK, hold on a second.
23:11What's happening?
23:12Let me lead you around to the face that you will be feeling.
23:15And this person doesn't mind if I feel their face?
23:18Not only that, there was a fight over who got to do this.
23:23I'm so, OK.
23:24Oh.
23:25OK.
23:26Here we go.
23:27Uh-huh.
23:28Oh.
23:29Interesting.
23:30What's happening there?
23:32What's happening?
23:33Oh.
23:35He said I could smell.
23:36Yep.
23:37Take him in.
23:38I don't know if that helps.
23:39All right.
23:40Can I revisit people, too?
23:41What's that?
23:42Like, can I come back and touch again?
23:44Where are you?
23:45No, no, you cannot come back and touch again.
23:46OK.
23:47You get one try.
23:48Let's bring in number two, face number two.
23:50And Carrie, I'm over here.
23:52You hear my voice here?
23:53Yes.
23:54You must be really good at pin the tail on the donkey.
23:56Here we go.
23:57Stand right here.
23:58OK.
23:59And here is your person, right here.
24:00OK.
24:01And there you go.
24:02This is number two.
24:03First one was number one.
24:05Oh.
24:06Mm-hmm.
24:07You should talk.
24:08Whoever this is, laugh.
24:09What if I tickle you?
24:10Will you laugh?
24:11Can I tickle?
24:12Don't be afraid to really get in those nostrils, too,
24:14if you need to.
24:16I almost got to laugh.
24:18Oh, I think I might know.
24:22Also, one of these people has ringworm.
24:25What?
24:27OK, let's bring in number three.
24:29Such a long distance away.
24:31All right.
24:32And Carrie, here is number three.
24:34There you go.
24:35And they're all co-stars?
24:36This person's very small.
24:37Well, one of them is.
24:38Hi.
24:39Hi.
24:40One of them is your co-star.
24:42My co-star.
24:43Now.
24:44Is it a romantic co-star?
24:46No, you can't say anything number three.
24:48Oh.
24:51All right.
24:52OK, you felt everyone's heads.
24:53OK, can I feel the second person one more time?
24:55You may feel this.
24:56Yes, you may feel the second person one more time.
24:59Go right ahead.
25:00The second person is right here.
25:02OK.
25:03I have a feeling.
25:04I don't know.
25:05But this feels familiar.
25:06You think that's the second person is the person?
25:09Is the person is the co-star?
25:10Yes.
25:11I think so.
25:12And who do you think the co-star is?
25:13But what if I'm wrong?
25:14Well, if you're wrong, you're wrong.
25:19Is it possible that two out of the three people that I touched are named Guillermo?
25:24It is possible.
25:25Yes.
25:26Yes.
25:27Oh.
25:30Woo!
25:31Woo!
25:32Oh.
25:33Woo!
25:34Woo!
25:35Woo!
25:36Woo!
25:37Woo!
25:38Woo!
25:39Woo!
25:40Woo!
25:41Woo!
25:42Woo!
25:43Woo!
25:44Woo!
25:45I guess I better remember love.
25:46It's true.
25:47Now that I'm thinking about it, technically Guillermo was your co-star as well so you had a two out
25:52We've had a two out of three chance on this one.
25:54124 episodes together.
25:56Oh, my god.
25:57Let me have a look on that, too.
25:59Guillermo Diaz, everybody.
26:00Yes!
26:01With the jump down, and that's what
26:03mystery opens next Wednesday in theaters,
26:05and on Netflix, December 12th.
26:07The great Kerry Washington, everyone.
26:09We'll give it all for Eric Swalwell.
26:18Welcome back, Congressman Eric Swalwell.
26:19And Lord Huron are coming up.
26:21But first, our friend Guillermo hates to lose.
26:24But fortunately, when it comes to Christmas lights,
26:26he's got a secret weapon.
26:28We'll definitely get you another meatball sandwich, OK?
26:30Hey, Guillermo, hope the shine from all my trophies
26:32isn't getting in your eyes.
26:36Lou make me so mad.
26:37He wins at everything.
26:39The chili cook-off, the beekeeping contest,
26:44even the exotic pet competition.
26:48But this year will be different.
26:49Lou, I challenge you to an office Christmas light contest.
26:52Great.
26:53I mean, Christmas lights is the only trophy I don't have.
26:56Now, if you'll excuse me, my award-winning stew is ready.
27:01How are you going to beat him?
27:02He's just so awesome.
27:04With my secret weapon, go be the sparkle Christmas lights.
27:07I've got to prepare.
27:08See you.
27:12Come on!
27:22Why do you like this?
27:23And the winner is Guillermo!
27:36Come on, Guillermo!
27:37To get your own baby Christmas lights and make your holiday season chump,
27:40visit the experts in holiday lighting at Goofy.com.
27:43Hi, there.
27:47Welcome back.
27:48This is from Lord Huron is on the way.
27:51Our next guest is a popular member of the House.
27:54He's from the 14th District of California.
27:57He does battle daily with the forces of MAGA,
28:00and the president does not like him at all.
28:03Please welcome Congressman Eric Swalwell.
28:21Welcome.
28:22Thank you for being here.
28:23Oh, man, I've got a lot of questions for you, so...
28:25The president's not going to like this show.
28:26No, no, he doesn't like it any night,
28:28so he's especially not going to like it tonight.
28:31You, on Tuesday, were part of a vote.
28:33Yes.
28:34It was almost unanimous.
28:35One guy held out, for whatever reason,
28:39the vote was to release the entirety of the Epstein files.
28:43Do you think they will release the entirety of the Epstein files?
28:46No.
28:47You do not?
28:47No.
28:48I don't trust this guy for one moment.
28:51In fact, he has acted this entire time
28:54like somebody who really has something to hide,
28:57but sometimes, not most of the time,
28:59but sometimes, enough public sentiment can be built,
29:03and some measure of justice can be brought.
29:06And the public sentiment is what drove
29:08my Republican colleagues to do the right thing,
29:10not because of anything inside them,
29:11and certainly not because of anything from the president.
29:13See, I see.
29:14Except for a couple of Republican colleagues
29:16who seemed like they were voting with you all along.
29:19And the most unlikely of colleagues, right?
29:21The most unlikely.
29:21The most puzzling woman of the year, Marjorie Taylor Greene.
29:24Yes.
29:25And you know what?
29:26I will take her in our coalition if it helps people.
29:29Like, the next discharge petition, by the way,
29:31that's what forced this vote, is to lower health insurance costs.
29:34Yeah.
29:35Which is crazy that they would want to let that lapse.
29:37And if she wants to join our coalition,
29:39you know, I can put the crazy aside and bring her under the tent.
29:43And we need to be more open to people who are willing to do that.
29:45But it just shows, like, there is strength in numbers
29:48against this guy, right?
29:49Like, he wants to pick you off one by one.
29:52And the four of those who stood up against him,
29:55they can go get more friends and show that we are stronger together.
29:58But if they just shrink and they hide and they allow themselves
30:01to be picked off, that's when he's stronger.
30:03And with the Epstein vote, we showed that we and Justice
30:06and those victims were stronger.
30:08And yet, you don't feel like, necessarily, you're not convinced
30:14that we are going to get to see everything.
30:16Is it possible that Trump didn't do anything?
30:19Now, he is not guilty of anything in these files
30:24that we're going to see.
30:25So I was a prosecutor up in Oakland.
30:26And we would tell every jury, whenever you had, like,
30:30a defendant who went out of their way to, like,
30:32destroy evidence or conceal evidence or hide evidence,
30:36that that's a consciousness of guilt.
30:37And you can use that behavior to imply or infer
30:42they did something wrong.
30:43I'll just say this.
30:44He's not acting like somebody who has nothing to hide.
30:47And we shouldn't take him at his word.
30:48But this, to me, is just a motivating factor
30:51for why we have to be in the majority.
30:54The majority matters.
30:56It means subpoena power, accountability, power of the purse.
30:59And these guys, they think they're invincible.
31:03They think either they're never going to lose an election
31:05because they'll try and rig them and make it harder to vote.
31:07Or two, that when we get into the majority,
31:10we won't have the balls to hold them accountable.
31:12We have to show them they're going to be in the witness chair.
31:15I hope everything they've done, every deal they've struck,
31:18every university president that they've picked off,
31:20every entertainment company that they've tried to, you know, work with,
31:23I hope all those deals are clean because it's all coming out.
31:26How many people, and maybe you don't know the answer to this.
31:30Maybe you do.
31:31How many people do you think have seen the contents of those files?
31:36I would say probably fewer than 20.
31:38The way these investigations...
31:39That many?
31:40That many?
31:41But it's also, I mean, that's pretty small, right?
31:43And most of these prosecutors will keep an oath, you know, to the investigation and not release it,
31:48even as they see, you know, the president just lying openly about his own involvement.
31:54But when you, like, zoom out, I think it's important to, like, recognize that, you know,
31:58there's an even bigger issue at stake here, right?
32:01That he's trying to bury the Epstein files when people just wanted him to lower costs.
32:05And we're in a place now where if you, you know, go after him, he weaponizes his DOJ to go after you.
32:12If you make a joke about him, he tries to take you off the air.
32:15And if you're a governor of a blue state and he doesn't like you, he goes after your cancer research funding.
32:21And, Jimmy, I have to tell you, he's going after our cancer research funding in California.
32:26We've got some of the best research universities in the world.
32:29It's a little personal to me.
32:31You lost your best friend last week.
32:33I lost my best friend two months ago.
32:35My mom passed.
32:36And she passed from cancer.
32:38And people in California expect that, like, you're going to invest in cancer research, not cut it.
32:44I think a budget is a moral document, but also an IQ test.
32:48And it has to be the dumbest thing in the world, you know, to kill cancer research when we should be focusing on killing cancer.
32:55And it doesn't just hurt people in California.
32:57Obviously, it hurts people that researchers shared and all over.
33:01And they're counting on California to get it right, right?
33:03Because the research done here helps people across the country.
33:06You grilled the director of the FBI, Kash Patel, at length about these files.
33:12And forgive me for sticking to these files, but it's what's going on right now.
33:16And I'm very curious about it because I think after all of this, we want to know if we're going to learn anything from them.
33:22We have a clip of that, I believe.
33:24You said you don't know the number of times Trump's name appears in the files, so it could at least be a thousand times.
33:30Is that right?
33:31You can characterize the numbers however you want it.
33:33You can claim in my time, director.
33:34It sounds like if you don't know the number, it could at least be a thousand times.
33:38It's not.
33:39It's not.
33:40Is it at least 500 times?
33:41No.
33:42Is it at least 100 times?
33:43No.
33:44Then what's the number?
33:45I don't know the number, but it's not that.
33:46Turned out it was at least 1,600 times.
33:49I should have gone higher.
33:50I was going in the wrong direction.
33:52So he's seen these files.
33:54He knows what the answer is, or at least he has a general idea.
33:57I'm sure he didn't count it up with an abacus or something like that.
34:01And he's got the shovels out, you know, with everyone else there to try and bury them because, again, this is to the MAGA movement.
34:08If you're, like, making a cake, this is a main ingredient.
34:11This is the flour.
34:12And they're demanding it.
34:14And they ran on this that every villain in their universe was going to be in the files.
34:18And it turns out, like, the guy who's mentioned the most, you know, is the guy they work for.
34:22So I wouldn't count on them one bit.
34:24So that's why, to me, it's support, you know, the survivors.
34:27And even Thomas Massey has said that if they do not come out, he's going to go to the floor and read the names of the clients.
34:34But put us in the majority, and we can cut our time by hell in half and expose every person who should be held accountable.
34:40You are being now personally investigated by the Justice Department, as are a number of Democrats that Trump doesn't like.
34:51Yes.
34:52Suddenly, they're looking into mortgage fraud.
34:54What's the story with that?
34:55It's, of course, nonsense.
34:57Just, like, going after Adam Schiff for mortgage fraud is nonsense.
35:01Going after Tish James is nonsense.
35:03Going after Ms. Cook, the Fed governor, is nonsense.
35:06And, you know, shocking.
35:08I'll break it to you now, Jimmy.
35:09He's probably going to go after someone next week, and it will also be nonsense.
35:12But if he thinks for one second that me, Schiff, Cook, Tish James are going to hide under the bed or shrink or just go quiet, we're not.
35:22We're not.
35:23And what the American people are saying right now is they want Donald Trump out of our homes, out of our streets, out of our lives, and out of this studio.
35:30Period.
35:31I think he wants out of the studio, too.
35:32Yes, he does.
35:33What are we going to do?
35:34How do you stop this?
35:35Well, I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
35:36Mm-hmm.
35:37I love California.
35:38It's the greatest country in the world.
35:39Country?
35:40Greatest country in the world.
35:41But that's why it pisses me off to see Californians running through the fields where they work from ICE agents or troops in our streets.
35:56It's horrifying.
35:57It's horrifying.
35:58It's absolutely horrifying.
35:59Absolutely horrifying.
36:00Or cancer research being canceled.
36:02It's awful to look at.
36:04And our state, this great state, needs a fighter and a protector, someone who will bring prices down, lift wages up.
36:11And we can say that we're the fourth largest economy in the world, and we are, and I love to brag about that.
36:17But what does that mean if you can't afford to live here?
36:20So I've been in these fights as a city council member up in Dublin, my hometown, as a prosecutor in Oakland, and taking on the most corrupt president ever in the U.S. Congress.
36:30But I'm ready to bring this fight home.
36:32So I came here tonight, Jimmy, to tell you and your audience that I'm running to be the next governor of California.
36:38I'm excited to do it.
36:46Yeah.
36:47You know what?
36:50I'm glad there's a lot.
36:52Now, if you want, if I may, you're going to have to figure out the beard if you want to be governor.
36:58You mean like going to the witness protection program?
37:00Well, no, you're either going to have to go more beard or less beard because you're in a beard nether region right now that we can't have.
37:06Well, thank God the best hair is term limited.
37:09And so...
37:10Yes, right.
37:11Yes, yes.
37:12So just think about maybe either a shave or go full Dave Letterman.
37:15You know, one of those two things.
37:17I think that's the way to go.
37:18Yeah.
37:19Full Dave.
37:20I'm like a prospector type.
37:21You are from Northern California.
37:22Right.
37:23Why not shine a light on that, the origins of our state?
37:26Just lean into it.
37:27Well, thank you for being here and announcing this exciting news.
37:30Wouldn't do it anywhere else.
37:31Here on the show.
37:32And thanks for your support throughout our ordeal.
37:35Eric Swalwell, everybody, your congressman from California, perhaps our future governor of California.
37:41We'll be back with Lord Huron.
37:42Thanks to Kerry Washington and congressman Eric Swalwell.
37:54Apologies to Matt Damon.
37:55Nightline is next, but first is their album, The Cosmic Selector Volume 1.
38:00Here with the song, Bag of Bones, Lord Huron.
38:05This is how my tale begins, I was outside looking in again.
38:24Nothing like rain washing, so I slept in the cold and left in the sand.
38:31I've never seen the sky lit pale at night.
38:34I should've known I wasn't right.
38:37Wandered out there on my heart, just to rattle and bite at home.
38:44I can see you're doing just fine without me.
38:50What did you say?
38:52Yeah.
38:57I believe you'd never get far without me.
39:02How long I've been with you.
39:09This my tale of the world continues.
39:12We need a God, but it should've been you.
39:15You're the only one I trusted.
39:18But you left town and I got this time.
39:21Let me see you one last time.
39:24You can kiss my worthless ass goodbye.
39:27I doubt that it's been nice to know.
39:30A long way out you've been with you.
39:34Where you grew?
39:36There's something not right about me.
39:40I thought you'd got this recovery.
39:45Where did you move?
39:49You'd never get far without me.
39:52But it's a joke if you were.
40:01This is how my story ends.
40:04I'm stoned and broke and done again.
40:08No life's another space.
40:11I'm just floating onto my eigenstange.
40:14Been along the road without me on.
40:18Living on the tree side
40:20I'll be out there on my own
40:23Just a rattle night
40:25I'll be out there on my own
40:29Just a rattle night
40:32I'll be out there on my own
40:35Just a rattle night
40:38People die and planets turn
40:42And empires rise and fall over
40:45Nothing lasts and no one stays
40:48We just twirl on the new outer space
40:52Never see the sky so full of stars
40:55Makes me wonder where you are
40:58I'll be out there on my own
41:01Just a rattle night
41:03I'll be out there on my own
41:07Just a rattle night
41:09I'll be out there on my own
41:13Just a rattle night
41:16I'll be out there on my own
41:16Just a rattle night
41:30And I'll be out there on my own
41:32Thank you
