The Daily Show host Jon Stewart mocked President Donald Trump’s aggressive handshaking during a segment on Monday, giving graduates advice on how to “nail that important job interview” the Trump way. “Class of 2026, everybody gather around,” said Stewart during his monologue. “We’re gonna walk you through what you really need to do to nail that important job interview, Donald Trump way.” He continued, “Let’s start at the very beginning, young grad, you walk into the room, and what have we always told you to do? Eye contact, firm handshake, settle in. But that’s what losers do. What you want to do is set the terms of the battle in the interview. ‘I will take your f*cking hand! Give me your f*cking hand! Give it to me!'” As Stewart played clips of Trump aggressively tugging the arms of world leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron, former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, and former Vice President Mike Pence, he shouted, “I want your hand! Give me your f*cking hand! Your prospective employer must know you are the captain now!” “And if you come out of that interview with a hand that looks any less grotesque than this one, you did it wrong,” he added, showing a photo of Trump’s bruised hand. “Don’t look away! Look at it! That is a hand that won the interview. ‘How did the interview go, son?’ ‘My beautiful hands…'” The White House partially blamed Trump’s frequent handshaking for the president’s oft-bruised hands. Stewart concluded, “All right, so now we’re in the room, now we’re gonna let the interview begin. We’ll role-play this out. Why do you think you’re a good fit for our firm?” The Daily Show host then played several clips of Trump bragging that he was “a smart person,” knew lots of words, and had “a very fertile brain.” Watch above via The Daily Show.The post ‘Give Me Your F*cking Hand!’ Jon Stewart Mocks Trump’s Aggressive Hand-Tugging During Meetings With World Leaders first appeared on Mediaite.

(AP Photo/Mark Schiefelbein) President Donald Trump reportedly suggested the United States, China, and Russia should unite against the International Criminal Court during closed-door talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing last week. The proposal emerged during wide-ranging conversations between the president and the Chinese leader that also touched on Russia’s war in Ukraine, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday. Trump argued the three powers shared common interests in opposing the ICC, which his administration has repeatedly accused of overreach and politicization, according to the report. The White House, as well as the Chinese embassy in D.C., declined to comment on the alleged remarks for the report when reached by the FT. The discussions came as Trump seeks to reset relations with Beijing while also maintaining contact with Russian President Vladimir Putin amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. Putin is expected to arrive in China this week for talks with Xi. According to people briefed on the summit, however, Trump suggested the three nations should join together to push back on the ICC and argued their interests were aligned against the Hague-based court. The ICC has long been a target of Trump allies and senior administration officials, who have accused it of politicization and judicial overreach. Since returning to office last year, Trump has intensified pressure on the ICC, imposing sanctions on 11 court officials, including the chief prosecutor, and eight judges. In an executive order signed in February 2025, Trump accused the court of taking “illegitimate and baseless actions targeting America and our close ally Israel” after the ICC pursued investigations involving U.S. and Israeli officials. Neither the United States nor Israel is a signatory to the Rome Statute, the treaty that established the court. Russia formally withdrew from the court in 2016 after it classified Moscow’s annexation of Crimea as an occupation. China has also consistently rejected the court’s jurisdiction.The post Trump Proposed US, Russia, and China Unite Against International Criminal Court in Closed-Door Talks With Xi: Report first appeared on Mediaite.

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said the initiative would be linked to a settlement tied to Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS over the leak of his tax returns during his first term. However, not all supporters of the president were fully on board. Hours after the announcement, Jennings expressed concern on CNN NewsNight about oversight and who could ultimately benefit from the money after concerns were raised that the fund could become a vehicle for rewarding Trump allies, including individuals connected to the January 6, 2021 Capitol riots. Jennings defended the broader principle behind the fund, arguing that Americans unfairly targeted by federal investigators should have a means of seeking compensation, but stopped short of endorsing the programme outright. “The question is, has anyone in the history of the United States ever been unfairly targeted by the Department of Justice? Of course they have,” said Jennings. “And there ought to be, just at a top line, a way for people to seek recourse if they have been unfairly targeted.” He continued: That having been said, this all started by the fact that Donald Trump had his tax returns unfairly and illegally leaked by the IRS. That’s where all this started, and he was initially seeking damages for that, which he has given up. He’ll receive no money, as I understand it, and now it has morphed into this idea that there have been people that have been unfairly targeted. … All of this makes me a little uncomfortable because it’s a lot of money, and it didn’t go through the U.S. Congress. That’s number one… Number two, I don’t want to see a president necessarily handpicking people to get payments, where he could be accused of just picking people out who are political allies. Jennings went on to say that he “absolutely” wants to see “a world” where people who were “unfairly targeted by the federal government” can seek “recourse” and “some sort of damages.” Challenged by a co-panelist on whether… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
