Last Week Tonight with John Oliver @lastweektonight.com · 05/10/2026
This week’s main story is about the Secret Service, why they’ve had so many close calls in recent years, and why some are privately calling 2028 “Armageddon.” Which we’re sure is just an arbitrary code name and nothing to worry about. Link to full segment in bio!

It decimated the federal workforce - not overhauled it. The elimination of expertise. The destruction of capacity. It also did NOT slash government spending. Spending is UP. It has been reallocated to the secret police and military. Stop publishing falsehoods.

If your boss asked you what you’d been up to all year, and you sent them a graphic about how you’ve made more than 100 phone calls, you’d get fired, right?
Kash Patel tweet: “This is what happens when you pick up the phone.”

And then there’s a graphic under it bragging that Kash Patel has made 101 phone calls as FBI director

I actually disagree. I think the real threat to journalism is twofold: billionaires suing an entire class into nonexistence and ad revenue completely drying up, even for indie journalists. The really scary concept for the future of journalism isn’t bias, it’s that it simply disappears.

Tweet from Zachary Cohen CNN


NEW: The US military was prepared to board a Chinese vessel in the Middle East earlier this spring -- during war with Iran -- after an intel report concluded it was transporting components of a nuclear weapons program. 

But just before the planned operation, officials discovered the report had been generated w/ help of AI & chatbot used by the analyst inaccurately identified what the ship was carrying, sources tell @KatieBoLillis & me.

Tierra Walker died after she couldn’t get an abortion. Her family is suing Ken Paxton
The case, filed Tuesday, argues that Texas’ near-total abortion ban violates the state and U.S. Constitutions, which “prohibit state actors from killing their citizens.”

ah yes once again the racists are the real victims
In an internal Slack message obtained by The Verge, 1Password's Karimov downplayed the overtly racist comments from DHH, telling staff the following:

As I said, people have different personal opinions. You believe in your heart that DHH is evil, that you have the moral high ground, and that nothing will change your mind.
However, not everyone believes that. It is not fair to claim a monopoly and ostracize team members who might disagree with you.

There are people who are afraid to speak up simply because they will be personally attacked.
