damn watching this while a felon is running for president is wild
Means Ttump can't vote for himself, so he's _really mad_ about that.
@@iyeetsecurity922 No. He voted already.
can't believe they've only uploaded the "partying" space geckos segments on the main channel, not also the space mice whodunnit ?!?!?!
Really wish we'd gotten Johnny Abracadabra: The Pale Wizard Boy Who Likes to Stay Inside and Read instead of the one we actually got
This reminded me to register to vote! If you can you should too!
Starbucks brought out pumpkin spice latte in August in 2024.
As a Starbucks Barista: We don’t like it either and we’re sorry
@@mrmistyeyes4338 lies. You feast on our suffering.
My mom haaaaaates the fall, so seeing that they already had pumpkin spice out, she literally, out loud, said “No!!! That’s not okay!!” 😂
@@Kingbimmy We feel it too man 😭😭 the collective groan from everyone in my store when we found out it was being launched this early was LOUD
You have to work, pay taxes and can't vote for your president? Welcome to Puerto Rico. 😕
“without bats, there’d be so many things we wouldn’t have”
that hits different post covid
Oh my god 😭💀
i was watching this one german show hosted by this guy named Oliver Welke, and he reminds me of John Oliver so much
It's clear Scott only wanted to humiliate people with his 'clemency board'.
For those wondering if Trump can still vote as a Florida resident-yes, he is still legally allowed to vote. Florida law states that if the felonies were committed out-of-state, they defer to said state's voting laws. Trump was convicted in New York, where the convicted are allowed to vote as long as they aren't physically incarcerated, ergo Trump is still legally allowed to vote
I'm done with Republican party telling us we shouldn't vote
so much john oliver
He thinks and acts like Putin, but looks like a guy who only eats Poutine!
Sounds like one of the astronauts is an imposter.
I read the title and thought this was from this weeks episode.
Quite sad how nothing has really changed in a 6 years.
😂 you are amazing and your children should be very proud of their dad 💯💌
So this means Trump won't be allowed to vote?
No. He voted already. Early voting, of which he was and is against.
This is the entirety nobody in the supreme Court deserves lifetime appointment letting Thomas aledo and many others to hold office lifetime office deserves critical internment prison if you are held you are a prisoner
Of your constituents
You lied because of what you thought, people wanted to hear
Why are they re-releasing these old videos? I’m so confused.
It's full episodes instead of just the main story they usually upload.
In part so people can watch them (they're not available on HBO) and in part because they don't have anything else to upload that day.
To quote the announcement episode, "There’s no new episode this week! But we still have current events. From 10 years ago. This Sunday we’ll be dropping all of season 1 for free on our TH-cam channel! Seasons 2-8 to come, whenever we don’t have a new episode. Trust us, some of this is still completely relevant. Some."

It serves as an open archive
hbo max took them off their platform so theyre uploading them for free instead of making you pirate them lol
Anyone knows did Florida chandged their laws? And is it still illegal to feed algators to meth dealers in Florida?
The Little turtle is dead in water feeding frenzy
It was Dave the mice
It was dave.think about, is his name is only...dave
Anyone know song/instrumental at the end?
Nope, that why trump can't vote!! Let that sink in.....
Dave. It was Dave people.
God. Fucking dam it Dave
Anomynous?!
S5 E22
It says that in the title.
sure is
why are you commenting this on every video
They need to educate their people to not commit a felony if they want to vote 😂😂
And what’s crazier is that 1 in 10 people in FL has a felony conviction. Stop being criminals!
Oh and you’ve never made a mistake? A non violent conviction shouldn’t bar an individual from ever voting again. It’s obviously a political move to stop Florida turning blue
If making one bad decision should prevent people from ever voting again then we should probably ban all the people that voted for Trump in 2020.
Voting for him in 2016 sure, that's just low-info voters who fell for his faux populist rhetoric (and who liked his racist exclamations).
But doing it in 2020 after we had >200 weeks of 'biggest scandal ever' after 'biggest scandal ever'? Nah man, those people have shown they can't handle the responsibility of voting.
If you knew the parasitic nature of some communities...
First, people who have served their sentence should not be punished twice.
Second, anyone who is affected by politics should be able to vote on it. Here in France, losing your rights (including voting rights) is not automatic, and many people in prison are allowed to vote. And they should be, if only to ensure that prison living conditions are humane.
In Sweden, as long as you're a citizen, you get to vote in parliamentary elections even if you're a convicted felin currently serving a sentence, and you get to vote in municipal/regional elections even if you're not a citizen. This includes violent and sex offenders.
27:26 i don't see Pinkie and the Brain on that list. seems sus
