Jon Stewart appears on ‘Daily Show’

The original panel featured four 9/11 first responders making the case for why members of Congress – who so frequently call these responders heroes and say things like “never forget” – should fund their health care for illness related to that day. However, Congress has failed to renew the James Zadroga 9/11 Health & Compensation Act, which provides health benefits for 9/11 responders. Stewart then went on to use his temporary Daily Show platform in order to take direct aim at Senator Mitch McConnell and present a stunning visual on the health of 9/11 first responders. That’s a sad state of affairs for Noah: After just a few months of trying to convince an audience to trust him, now “The Daily Show”‘s audience can be hooked with the hope that Stewart might show up on an episode.

“It expired in September; it’s soon going to be out of money”. During the commercial break immediately after the second Zadroga segment, Stewart hugged each an every one of them, as Bruce Springsteen’s “We Take Care of Our Own” played in the studio. McConnell has backed a similar bill in the past, his reluctance to support the Zadroga Reauthorization Act has been apparent for quite some time, and instead of meeting with Stewart and the first responders, he’s been an obstacle for the group. Enter Jon Stewart once again.

Trevor Noah basically handed the whole show over to Jon Stewart yesterday, and the tone of the show was much more serious than normal thanks to the subject they were discussing.

Most of the act expired October 1, and, much to Stewart’s dismay, it has not yet been renewed despite the repeated efforts of many first responders.

The appearance ended with Noah and Stewart urging viewers to tweet at recalcitrant senators with the hashtag #WorstResponders.

In February, Jon Stewart shocked America – especially liberal America – when he announced he would no longer be hosting “The Daily Show”.

But now that Noah is comfortable in his role, Stewart decided it was time to return as a guest this week to talk about something important to him. He seemingly baffled Noah when he told thehost that McConnell had publicly spoken in support of aiding the stricken first responders, only to stymy it in Congress after “he didn’t get concessions about loosening oil-export regulations”. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, leaving some lawmakers concerned about how to pay for it.

“Yes, Trevor”, said Stewart. He was not capable of meet with anyone except Sen.
