The passport being taken, the being in a house and not feeling like they can leave.

All right, everybody. Thank you so much for listening to Infamous this week. I want to just say a couple of things about Diddy before we go. So if you're not that familiar with his bio, you know, he grew up in New York. He was the son of a hustler. His dad was actually killed when he was an infant. He went to Howard University, the incredible African-American university in Washington, D.C.

And from there, he became an A&R guy at Uptown Records and a party promoter, basically. And he worked his way up from there. But he actually told Rolling Stone many years ago, 2006, he said that he believed that his internal self, his real self was like really quiet, really childlike, that he never lost his child spirit. And that if you look in his eyes, you will see a fucking child in there.

He said that he actually was a bed wetter as a child until he was six years old. And he had a hard time even going on a sleepover. He was just like, no, what? I do not want to be at these other people's house. It's just his whole thing, he said, is he doesn't like to be embarrassed. That's the number one thing that he doesn't like.

But this has been incredibly embarrassing and obviously much more than that for him. He, I think, could potentially go to prison for life. He wasn't let out on bail. If you remember, when he was arrested, he went straight to jail. He has not been out since then. And I am not sure that he's going to see the light of day. He wouldn't have gone to trial if they had made a good decision.

proffer to him. So maybe they told him, you know, 40 years and he figured, you know what, I'll be an old man then. I'm just going to take my chances. And what we also know about him, in addition to the fact that, you know, Biggie died under mysterious circumstances. His ex-wife, Kim Porter, died of pneumonia at 49 years old.

There's probably a lot of things that are uncharged that could have been looked into. by the federal government. He used to like to call himself a man of war. And wow, he's in a fight for his life because the things that are charged are repulsive. And he sounds like he abused these people. You can certainly ask the questions that the defense is asking, which is like,

You know, does it cross to the level of sex trafficking? But what we do know is that the shiny, clean image of, you know, the boy who made good, who was rap's number one empresario, that that was all a lie. And that everything that was happening behind the scenes was, as the Fed said, it was potentially racketeering. It was potentially stuff like a mobster would do.

Anyway, it's going to be, you know, a few more weeks before the trial is over at least. And we'll be watching and seeing where this all goes. In some ways, it's amazing to see somebody brought to justice for what they did. I don't think anybody who watched that video with Cassie where he beats her up in the hallway cannot feel happy that this man is on trial. So...

Even if you don't go for, you know, yeah, let's lock up all the criminals. I think this is a person that people do feel some satisfaction that he has to answer for this stuff after so many years of keeping it behind the curtain. So thanks so much to Natalie and to Sean Sitaro for being on Infamous this week to talk about the trial. And I wanted to just tell you guys where you can find Sean.

So he's been covering the trial for Complex, which is complex.com. That has everything. Instagram also has some wrap-up videos for him. And you can find him on Twitter. So his name is Sean, S-H-A-W-N, which we all know is Sean. Not always the spelling. Sometimes it's the spelling. Other times it's not the spelling. Sertaro.

We will have a link where you can find Sean and his coverage in the show notes. So thanks so much. And we will see you next week with a whole new episode. Thanks again.

No kidding.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

I like my chicken fried. Yes.

I have lost all control.

100%.

Hell no!

100%.

What? What is that? Oh, no.

You have a million chickens.

Yeah, sure thing. Hey, you sold that car yet?

Yeah, sold it to Carvana.

Oh, I thought you were selling to that guy.

The guy who wanted to pay me in foreign currency, no interest over 36 months? Yeah, no. Carvana gave me an offer in minutes, picked it up, and paid me on the spot. It was so convenient.

Just like that?

Yeah.

No hassle?

None.

That is super convenient. Sell your car to Carvana and swap hassle for convenience. Pick up fees may apply.

100%.

50?

Welcome back to The Daily Show.

Thank you so much.

I brought you a really fantastic golf book. Weighs 14 kilograms. And it showcases the golf courses in our country.

I don't know what you mean. Yeah, it calls back the first one, so it really ties in everything.

Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.

You're my inspiration. Everybody, Mission Impossible, the final record, it will be in theaters and IMAX on May 23rd. It's time to thank everybody. We're going to take a quick break. We'll be right back after this. Thanks for speaking to me. That's our show for tonight. Now here it is, your moment of zen.

We need an Air Force One until our sets of Air Force One, it's being built. Two of them being built. But Boeing's a little bit late, unfortunately. I'm sorry, I don't have a plane to give you. I wish you did. I would take it. If your country offered the United States Air Force a plane, I would take it. Okay.

You're listening to an iHeart Podcast.

Trump time. A mistake on a Donald Trump keepsake might be funny to some.

But it wasn't a laughing matter for the couple who paid more than $600 for the Trump-branded watch.

Get your Trump watch right now. Go to GetTrumpWatches.com. It's Trump time.

Melanie Pettit likes the style, but it's what this watch does not have that makes it stand out.

I noticed it right away. The T is missing. It just says R-U-N-P.

So it should say Trump.

Should say Trump.

Instead.

It says rump.

new eye-popping details about Donald Trump's watches. And there's a link to Viagra honey. This is a product that is born out of a licensing agreement with a company called the Best Watches on Earth LLC. There is another company at this business registered at the same address called the Best Honey on Earth. They sell male enhancement honey, which is exactly what it sounds like. Stop it, Steve.

A product that helps men perform in the bedroom.

This morning, President Trump revealing his plans for a Golden Dome, a defense system designed to shield the U.S. from missile attacks.

The Golden Dome will be capable of intercepting missiles, even if they are launched from other sides of the world, and even if they are launched from space.

the Congressional Budget Office says it could cost up to $542 billion.

The president has long praised Israel's Iron Dome, which can intercept and destroy short-range rockets, missiles, and drones.

Welcome to The Daily Show.

We're gonna call it the Golden Dome. We had the Iron Dome. but somehow Golden Dome sounds better to me.

A missile shield in the US will not be capable of defending all of America.

I'm a missile defense guy, but it's never going to be possible to defend against everything. And so we are going to have to be selective.

I'm sure she's fine. Thank you, Grace. When we come back, Jalame will give us his opinions. Don't go away.

Yes, yes. One of the big mysteries of the Trump era is how so many Republicans can see everything Trump is doing and not say anything. The blatant corruption, disregarding the Constitution, that MAGA masturbation dance. Mr. President, I don't know who you've been jerking off this whole time, but if they haven't come by now, they never will, okay?

Look, the whole point of a democracy is that the president is not an all-powerful figure who's always right and can never be questioned. That sounds more like a little kid's idea of their father. And I think that's the answer. Republicans aren't looking for a president. They're looking for a daddy. Yeah, and that's not me just saying it, it's them.

Death. Horrible death. Death. I don't know.

When dad gets home, you know what he says? You've been a bad girl. You've been a bad little girl and you're getting a vigorous spanking right now. Check the stats, stop throwing stones. Straighten up, sucker, cause daddy's home.

What the hell? What the hellie? You're 54 years old. You can't be talking about needing a daddy if you have an AARP card, okay? My God, if you got daddy issues, don't go into politics. Become a stripper like a normal person, okay? Creepy points to decide. When most MAGA folks say they want a daddy, what they mean is they want somebody to protect them, and that's what Trump promises all the time.

You will once again have a protector in the White House. I'm going to be a protector. I will protect women at a level never seen before. I will protect our workers. I will protect our jobs. I will protect our borders. I will protect our families.

Yeah, Trump is protection the same way a condom is. Like, you see him coming and you know you're going to get f***ed. But here's the thing that I don't get about making Trump your father figure. If you listen to his own family members, he sounds like he's a terrible father.

He would not really be a dad which would take them for the stroll in the center park, in the stroll, or go and play the soccer with them, or do something like that. He was always on the telephone making the business.

I'll supply the funds and take care of the kids. It's not like I'm going to be walking the kids down Central Park.

Donald Trump was never keen on bequeathing his name to anybody. It was Ivana who wanted to call their newborn son Donald Jr. You can't do that, Trump is quoted as saying in Ivana's memoir. What if he's a loser?

What if Don Jr. is a loser? I guess those hats are true. Trump really is right about everything, okay? And Daddy Trump does something even worse than insult his children. He plays favorites among them. For instance, here's a fun Christmas story from Donald Trump Jr. himself.

I got re-gifted all of the things that were monogrammed for him at times. So, you know, there was one Christmas where he may or may not have given me the gift that I had given him the year before because I monogrammed it, and it was like, oh, yeah, here.

Now see if you can spot the subtle difference between giving the child he hates a re-gifted tie and what he gives the child he actually likes.

A great gift that my dad gave me recently is an apartment because I'm graduating.

See? See? You see that? You thought he only denied housing to black people. Turns out he also denied it to his son. And maybe you're thinking, come on, Trump is proud of all his kids equally. He's not.

I'm very proud because Don and Eric and Ivanka and, you know, to a lesser extent because she just got out of school, out of college, but Tiffany.

That's kind of how he's treating the country, isn't it? Like the red states are Ivanka and the blue states, yeah, we're Tiffany. Yeah. You see, Trump isn't just any dad. He's a particular type of dad. The bully. Sometimes that's great for, you know, if you're having problems with another kid at school or immigrants or the president of Ukraine. He'll bully them for you.

But the thing is, a bully dad will bully his own kids, too.

President Trump has slammed Bolton as a wacko and incompetent, calling Rex Tillerson dumb as a rock and Jim Mattis overrated. Called Attorney General Jeff Sessions mentally retarded and a dumb southerner.

Called Omarosa a lowlife and a dog.

John Kelly, he's one of the dumbest people I've ever met. Stupid generals like Milley, he was a stupid person. A person known as Nicky Birdbrain Haley. Birdbrain.

Look, man, if you hate your kids that much, at least have the decency to go out for cigarettes and never come back. OK, it's OK. We won't miss you. And when you have an emotionally unavailable dad, you're constantly having to beg for his love. And then you get stuff like this.

He is the most important, the smartest, the most capable leader in the world.

The greatest negotiator, the greatest dealmaker, the greatest diplomat, and the greatest peacemaker.

Yes, you're damn right. We've never seen dick riding like this. OK, right. This is unprecedented glazing. All right. Or at least it's weird to talk about a president this way. But an emotionally abusive father, then it's very normal. Some of you know the drill. You stay on daddy's good side because, you know, when he has a bad day, he's putting belt to ass. All right.

But Republicans, to paraphrase the immortal Maury Povich, he is not your father. If you see him stepping out of line, accepting bribes from foreign countries and violating the Constitution, call it out. Because the truth is, America doesn't need a daddy. It needs to grow up and not be a damn child itself. But that's just my opinion.

Well, say that she actually did. She says that she caught Craig texting two women.

True.

Let's say she was hiding this because she knows about the optics. She knows about Bravo Nation. And so she was protecting Craig all this time. And now she's like, well, fuck that. If he's not going to have my back, I'm not going to have his.

I just think that the way that a breakup happens is important, too, because the way that Wes broke it off with Sierra mattered. You know, he didn't just not like her. He also was, you know, he let her on. And then, yeah, yeah, yeah.

And so I think that the way that Paige and Craig broke up matters. And none of us were there.

We already got into that part. And then Wes puts a New York Times article out, though. So who's milking it?

I disagree. I think the house are being bullies. Okay. I know this goes against everything I said last week.

that is what they call me because i'm always just like so wait explain like back back your girl carolina yeah okay i just think that they're coming a little hard on her i disagreed with juliana i just think that like mind your own business a little bit like if she's she's clearly anxious like she's like i don't know if he's the guy for me we've had one date i need more time she's just saying everything that's going on in her head out loud you don't think that i agree with you on that i

I have reasons.

I know what's happening. Lindsay is going to go to Roni. Roni? Didn't they say they were canceling Roni?

She said Paige didn't.

What did you not like about them?

Thank you. What was wrong with the pants?

He wants easier access.

So what Ciara said was, she said, Paige didn't cheat on Craig and he knows that. And regardless of whether or not he wants to say, we all know what he's doing. You know the Bravo fans love to run with things. And by him not saying anything, he knows exactly what he's doing. To me, that was clear on his Watch What Happens Live appearance. He was asked point blank... Did she cheat?

And he basically said, I don't want to talk about like I don't want to speak to that. I'm not the one who said it. I was broken up with, et cetera. Yeah, he could have just said, no, she didn't cheat.

I don't know. I mean, I think that you also have Austin going on Watch What Happens Live. And, you know, he wasn't spreading the rumor, but he wasn't shutting it down either. And I think that, you know, then Paige, they pick up cameras and she says that he was texting two bitches.

I think that that might have been too far, but I also, like, I think that she's defending herself at this point. Like, she's on the defense now.

Well, he's not going out of his way, again, to defend. I'm not saying that he should be scouring Reddit and defending her. I'm just saying when prompted, asked point blank by Andy Cohen, did she cheat? He could have just been like, I don't think so. Not to my knowledge. His answer was, in my opinion, very calculated. And I agree with Sierra that he knows exactly what he's doing.

And he knows that Bravo Nation is going to deal with him.
