Ladies and gentlemen, the White House just interviewed
its next press secretary on Air
Force One between rallies while she was doing her makeup.
The candidate? Nicki Minaj, guys. Yes,
that Nicki Minaj with Drake.
Okay, Drake is not likely to be the new White House press secretary,
but Nicki Minaj, guys.
27 million followers, zero press briefings, nails long enough to
qualify as concealed weapons. Now, here's a twist, guys.
It wasn't a real hire. It was a troll,
a gorgeous perfectly aimed chef's kiss troll
and the White House press corps yeah the sharpest
minds in American journalism they took the bait like
a golden retriever chasing a tennis ball
drooling all over the place repeatedly into a lake now let's go ahead
and catch you up right
quick okay Caroline Leavitt left in August with a new baby
and a new Fox News contract good for her
straight up like she deserves it
then Katie Zacharias stepped up to the podium in October
and she lasted a solid week.
It was about five days.
Five days, guys.
Milk lasts longer than that.
My Greek yogurt lasts longer than that.
Your New Year's resolution lasts longer.
In fact, some people take longer to return a sweater.
She's back in California, sunny California right now,
smiling, still cheering for the team.
Truly the most peaceful exit in Washington history.
Look, nobody leaked anything.
Nobody wrote a book yet.
So the podium sits empty.
The cameras are starving and in walks Steven Chung.
Yes, President Trump's communications
director, part UFC guy, part wrestling announcer,
full-time hobby, ruining a reporter's afternoon.
So he drops a video, Nicki Minaj, Air Force One,
the job interview. And she was good,
like annoyingly good, like no teleprompter,
no notes, better answers than half the cable
news panels on TV in about 60 seconds with her eyeliner still drying.
Newsrooms absolutely
panicked. Oh, yeah, they panicked.
Anchors squinted. Somewhere, a reporter is still
refreshing their phone, whispering, is this real?
Is Nicki Minaj really going to be the
new White House press secretary for Donald J. Trump?
Oh, yeah, guys. Sweetheart, that was the
joke. You are the joke. Now, today, guys,
we're going to go ahead and break down this whole
circus, the five-day exit, the fake headline that fooled millions,
the Air Force One audition,
why Port Huron, Michigan matters a lot more than anybody's nails.
And who should really get the
job. Spencer Pratt, Carrie Lake, Scott Jennings,
Nicki Minaj, you decide, guys. And if you're new
here, go ahead and hit subscribe.
Unlike some press secretaries, we'll still be here next week.
And real quick, if you or someone you love
is on Medicare turning 65 years old, check out
Chapter, guys. I left their link,
their phone number in the description down below. Hit these
guys up. And when you call, tell them your friend Ron says hello, okay?
They know me over there. So
seriously, when you call, just tell them
your friend Ron says hello. Phone number's down below.
they're saving the average senior about $1,100 bucks
a year. I don't know about you,
but that sounds like a pretty good reason to give them a shout.
All right. So phone number is 909-563-8279.
And if we make you laugh even once,
just smash the like button on the way out. Hey,
you can just go ahead and smash it now before you forget.
Picture this, guys. The White House
briefing room. Blue curtain, gold seal on the wall.
Rows and rows of reporters packed in tight
like some sardines with press passes.
Oh, and the podium? Empty again. Karoline Leavitt,
She left in August. New baby, beautiful baby.
New Fox News gig. Then Katie Zachariah stepped up on
October 13th. Good morning.
Hardworking Americans are lining up and packing arenas to support
President Trump and Republicans.
It's not hard to see why.
He delivers on every promise. In addition
to that we will be we will
be doing yeah there's 54 billion dollars 120 billion dollars to build
eight to build eight and now we are have a booming economy
and a great relationship with Venezuela
American energy dominance because energy security
and with that i will take your questions um
Well, we will take Peter Doocy, the president,
as he is his own best spokesperson and will
absolutely be leading the way as with that.
So my president, excuse me, my husband,
that's a good one. Five days later, gone.
I said she's gone.
Back to sunny California. No tears,
no tell all book, still cheering for the team.
Now let's be fair. Do you think if I put on a
blonde wig that I might qualify
for being President Trump's next White House press
Secretary, y'all let me know. Anyway, the job is brutal, guys.
Briefings almost every single day,
questions about everything,
like from gas prices to wars to whatever President Trump posted at 6
a.m. while he was on the toilet, everything.
Every reporter shouts at the same time and they're all
attacking her. Every follow-up is a trap.
There's no notes, there's no do-overs, and they're just
waiting for the White House Press Secretary to mess up.
You have to be razor sharp and
bulletproof. Most people are one of those.
Almost nobody is both of them, and this is exactly why
the chair just keeps on spinning. Here's the thing.
First of all, the job is brutal, okay?
You got to be Caroline Leavitt to survive that thing, right?
So the seat is empty. The internet
does what the internet does.
First, Jimmy Falun, he cracks a joke on The Tonight Show, fake
interview, fake announcement.
Then Trump footage says one name, Nicki Minaj. The midterm elections
are just 15 days away. Yeah, that's not a lot of time.
That's only three White House press
secretaries from now. You know, yeah, everyone's talking about this.
President Trump fired his new
press secretary, Katie Zachariah, after just five days on the job.
It's not good when the edible
arrangement you got on your first day is still edible on your last day.
Finally, right. Meanwhile,
Kimberly Guilfoyle was like, hey, thanks for changing the subject.
She spent just five days
in the White House on the bright side.
Melania was like, that's five more than me. Five days.
Kash Patel was like, damn, I've had hangovers last longer than that.
Of course, now Trump needs a new
press secretary and we got to look at the questions
on the official White House job application oh
yeah check these out first up there's are you free
for the next five days up next there's do
you look a little like Ivanka
then there's is the word attorney on your LinkedIn profile in quotes
sure next up is there did you audition for the Baywatch reboot
then there's uh just curious
where do you stand on the whole Kelly Clarkson
bird thing up next there's are you comfortable
traveling in an airport catering truck, that's important to know
then there's, are you fluent
in Spanish? If so, you're already fired. Up next there's
on a scale from one to Mitch McConnell
how often do you freeze when asked basic questions
and finally there's, are you available to train
your replacement next week? These are good questions, thank you
for joining us, Mr. President
now you're a big Knicks fan, who's your favorite
Knick? Nicki Minaj. (The audience laughs) Jokes over
right? Wrong. No. So a parody account
on X posted like it's a real breaking news
Nicki Minaj is replacing Karoline Leavitt
as the White House press secretary. Millions of views,
millions of shares. Somebody's aunt forwards it
to the entire family group chat with like six
crying, laughing emojis. So now here's where it really gets good.
Normally the White House
shuts that down fast. Fake news. Next question.
Not this time, guys. Not this time. They didn't
deny it. They actually leaned into it.
Am I being punked? Is Ashton Kutcher hiding in the Rose
Garden? Nicki Minaj for press secretary was not on my 2026 bingo card
I'm just keeping it real
with you. I didn't see it coming
And reporters, they spent days asking, is this real? That was
the whole point. Quick favor, guys.
You already know that one friend that believes everything
breaking news headlines that they see.
go ahead and send them this video right now. Just consider
it a public service announcement.
They'll thank you eventually. So now, guys, some folks online
cooked up a theory, and honestly, kind of brilliant,
in a this-would-never-work kind of
way. Alright, so here's the pitch, right?
So, make Nicki Minaj press secretary because the media just
can't touch her. She's a world-famous superstar,
a recently naturalized citizen. Remember how
gently they handled Corinne Jean-Pierre,
kid gloves, bubble wrap, a participation trophy,
every Friday it seemed like, right?
So the theory goes, the press would just be too scared to lay
a finger on Nicki Minaj. Cute, clever, completely backwards.
This job doesn't need a shield. It
needs a sword. Plus a brain like a steel trap
a stomach like a cast iron skillet, and the patience
of a kindergarten teacher on the last day before summer.
Respect the swing. Great idea for a tweet,
terrible idea for the podium
All right, guys, let's go ahead and put on our detective hats
shall we? Okay, so grab the magnifying glass, shall we?
Okay, somebody posts,
make Nicki Minaj press secretary. Guess who hits like?
Nicki Minaj herself. She actually liked it.
Guess who else? May Musk. That's right.
Elon Musk's mom. Because of course she did. Nothing
in 2026 happens without a Musk somewhere in the background.
So then, of course, the clips start
rolling in. Nicki's been doing a 'bees in the trap' trend
with the White House. Bees in the trap.
Bees in the trap. There is even
a video featuring Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the man
runs into the U.S. Treasury
and whoever filmed him used a camera phone with a lens that was
so freaking smudgy it kind of looked like they shot it through
a bowl of soup. Somebody please
wipe that damn lens. Please. The economy is fine.
The camera isn't. Now, be honest, guys. Half of
you guys are saying, who? The other half are saying, why?
Stick around, guys. Oh, it gets so
much weirder. So picture a Sunday in Port Huron, Michigan.
Cold wind off the lake. American flags
just the snapping, a packed crowd in red hats holding their phones high
and walking out next
to President Donald Trump, Nicki Minaj, guys.
Now, somewhere a cable news producer just dropped
their coffee. You know, I don't like being overshadowed.
And this woman overshadows me
and I'm angry about it. They're going crazy over her.
The queen of rap, Nicki Minaj,
She's been with me from day one.
We love Trump.
We love Trump.
Michigan make some noise.
Michigan make some noise.
To be working with this president,
he represents resilience.
You know, so many people were maybe giving up a little bit,
a little bit hopeless.
And since he's come back, he's changed the energy of our country.
and um he's given us a a future to look forward
to a brighter future for us and our children so
let's make some noise for this great man i love
him so much and when i say you say rogers mike
you say james john michigan god
bless you we we really need all
of these great people to be
elected because this is a major turning point for our country.
And when you're in major states
like Michigan, we need this to be a leader
in the movement that's happening right now. We need this
place to lead in the movement, right?
And we're not going to give up because we want our children
to grow up in a place where we can be proud of.
We don't want our children to be bombarded with
sex changes right we don't want
that for our children we want people to leave the children
alone leave them out of it right
so president trump it is an honor to stand with you every
single time and i will continue to support you forever
and ever if you run again i will support
you again then the scene cuts to Air Force One
leather seats wood paneling and enough pledge in
Walmart to go ahead and cover all that wood paneling all
that wood grain a little cabin with
with mirrors makeup brushes are out lip gloss on standby ladies
and gentlemen this is not a fan
getting a selfie this is not a guest
who wandered onto the wrong plane this is a teammate riding on
the team bus meanwhile reporters
who've covered the White House for 20 years they still can't
get a seat that close right and what does he
do he wakes up at four o'clock in the morning he
outworks people that you know are half
his age you know what does that say about his character
He knows that he would be fine. He can kick his feet up and just,
you know, chill out for the rest of his presidency.
But no, he's paying it forward. He's thinking about
the other Republicans that have to win during these elections.
And so that tells me that he's...
You see Americans looking
at these fake news polls every single day.
What's your message to Americans about these fake news polls?
Ask Hillary Clinton how the fake poll,
obviously they are there to deter.
Now imagine spending your whole career chasing that particular plane
and a rapper manages to
beat you to the window seat.
Now let's go ahead and meet the man who threw the punch.
Stephen Chung. That's right, guys.
Official title, the White House Director of Communications.
Assistant to the President of the United States.
Very serious stuff, guys. Official title,
professional media irritant.
Yeah, this guy, he came from the UFC world. He is a walking NBA
encyclopedia, a pro wrestling historian,
which really does explain a lot because he treats the
White House press corps like a heel walking down
the ramp of WrestleMania. When Caroline Leavitt
stood at the podium, she played good cop, calm, polished, smiling.
Chang, he played bad cop on X
at all hours. Word around Washington
is that he's running the whole calm shop right now.
Now, some folks, they even want him at the podium.
Now, the other side, they love yelling, "no kings."
Fine, no kings.
But the White House is absolutely king of trolling.
So, Stephen Chung, he sits down across
from Nicki Minaj on Air Force One,
mic'd up, straight face, like it's a real job interview.
So, question number one, the economy.
Nicki says, Trump's a businessman.
He came back from being broke, so he knows money.
Then she drops the line.
Other countries should pay us to be friends with America,
not the other way around.
The economists at Harvard just fainted.
Question number two, work ethic.
Up at four o'clock in the morning, 4 a.m. guys,
outworking guys half his age,
campaigning for other Republicans when he could be out golfing.
Question number three, fake polls.
She says, go ask Hillary Clinton how those polls worked out.
Ooh, ouch. That one's going to leave a mark.
Might want to go ahead and put some cocoa butter
on that one. Then she says, President Trump's won three elections.
Okay. The math teachers
are typing furiously. Let's call that enthusiasm.
Guys, now picture the newsrooms. Reporters
Refreshing their phones, anchors leaning
into the screen squinting, producers yelling.
Is this real? Somebody call somebody?
his own finances surely he knows what
to do with the country, you know he's very tough, he's tough
internationally, he tells them what we need
not what they need, we're not going to be paying to
kiss their ass, okay? They are going to pay us
to be affiliated with the United States
the president is crisscrossing
the entire country doing rallies, political rallies today, is there
anyone who works harder than President Trump on the campaign trail.
Absolutely not. You have a man who's won three elections.
Here's what really stings. 60 seconds, guys.
Funny, relaxed, disarming. No teleprompter.
No notes. No, I'll circle back on that.
Yeah, Karine Jean-Pierre. Some cable news panels,
they can't pull that off in an hour with three experts
and a fancy graphic. But then Nicki
Minaj reposted herself. Oh, yay.
Is she actually going to be the next press secretary? Fans pile
on. The left absolutely cannot compete with this.
And President Trump, he's still talking about her
nails. He told a crowd that he asked her,
Nikki, are those real? She wouldn't say.
Now, imagine those claws typing a press release.
Every email would take three business days.
Breaking news, she just hit send on Thursday.
All right, guys, jokes aside, just for a second,
just one. Okay, I promise the sarcasm will come right back.
That rally wasn't in Port Huron,
Michigan by accident. Michigan is a must-win battleground,
and the midterms are just days
away. Not months, guys. Days.
Nicki Minaj is pushing the Save America Act, which is about
voter ID and proving citizenship to 27 million followers.
This is huge. That's more people than
watch most cable news shows combined on a good night with a hurricane.
And she took heat for it.
Plenty of celebrities folded
the second Hollywood frowned at them. She didn't.
So here's your homework, guys.
Check your registration. Vote early. Sign up to be a
poll watcher. Don't just complain about the game.
Show up and watch the scoreboard. Save America
first. So let's go and be honest about something.
Caroline Leavitt, she didn't just do the job.
She set the bar so flipping high,
you need a ladder and a weather balloon just to see it.
Young, sharp, blonde, calm under fire.
She'd smile at a reporter and then take their question
apart like it's some cheap Ikea furniture.
Before her, Kaylee McEnany, well, she pretty
much did the same thing. Binder full of receipts, zero fear.
So when Katie Zachariah stepped up,
she even said it herself, following Caroline is a high standard.
Five days later, we found
exactly how high that standard was no shame
in the game no shame in that seriously guys i'm not
knocking her some shoes are just a little too big
and this pair came with like six inch heels with
all sorts of red on the bottom the question
is not who can fill the seat it's who can survive
that seat all right guys fantasy draft time pickers grab
your snacks grab your snacks everybody
gather around so pick one right spencer pratt
this is the wild card that nobody saw coming
reality tv taught him how to survive people screaming
at this man on camera honestly perfect
training. So we're going to put Spencer Pratt as pick number one.
Pick number two, Carrie Lake.
She wouldn't answer reporters' questions.
She would interview them back. All right. So pick
number two is Carrie Lake. Pick number one is Spencer Pratt.
Pick number three is Scott Jennings,
guys. You can only pick one. All right.
This man, Scott Jennings, survived CNN panels for sport.
Five against one every night, and he's still smiling.
Pick number four. Who do you think
is pick number four, guys? Come on. Let me see.
Show of hands. Who do you think is pick number
four, Maria Bartiromo, the steady veteran pro.
Yes. So who are you going to pick? Pick number
one, you got Spencer Pratt. Pick number two, Carrie Lake.
Pick number three, you got Scott
Jennings. Pick number four, Maria Bartiromo.
I'm going to see what y'all saying. Meanwhile,
Washington insiders are floating Alina Hava,
Matthew Boyle, Anna Kelly, Taylor Budowich,
and of course, Stephen Chung himself.
Now here's my question, guys. Why does this job have to be
comfortable for the media? They don't need a friend.
They need a fighter. Now drop your pick
in the comments, guys. Let's go ahead and settle this once
and for all. Now, zoom all the way out.
The midterms are days away.
And with one silly 60-second video, the whole White House got millions
of people watching this thing, laughing, sharing,
hearing about President Trump's economy and work
ethic. Cost? Zero dollars.
Because Donald Trump and Elon Musk as a team? Man, those are some
badasses, ain't they? No ad buy, no consultants,
just a rapper, a microphone, an Air Force One.
Call it the Rush Limbaugh lesson.
When they come at you, don't whine. Hit them with a sapphire,
right in the face. The legacy media,
they spent days asking, is this real? Meanwhile, Stephen
Chung, he was probably eating popcorn.
The White House wrote the script. Nicki Minaj delivered the
lines. And the press corps, well,
the press corps played its part perfectly. They just didn't know
that they were in the show. Well, folks, that's the story.
The five-day exit, the prank, the Air
Force One audition, and the White House
that's having way more fun than the people that are
covering it. Now, if we made you laugh, even once,
guys, hit the like button on the way out. One
second costs you nothing. Unlike a press secretary,
it actually sticks around. And if you're not
subscribe yet, go ahead and handle that.
Go ahead and fix that right now. Subscribe. Next time. Bye.
