John Oliver checked in on the midterm elections Sunday night, focusing on the Arizona senate race and having a ball tearing through some of the odd Republican campaign ads and strategies.Arizona is represented by two Democrats: Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly. According to Oliver, Republicans think they can unseat Kelly, but it’s a competitive GOP primary.
First, there’s Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich, whose “whole vibe” is on display as he shows off his nunchuck skills in a pair of videos celebrating the end of the state’s ban on the exotic weapons. The first video was apparently so popular that people demanded more, so in the sequel, Brnovich simply says, “You want more chucks? You got more chucks.”“Now, I know that that is ridiculous, but I personally am enjoying Danny McBride’s newest character, and I’m excited to see where he goes with it,” Oliver mocked in response.But, as the late-night host points out, Brnovich isn’t necessarily supported by Trump fans, because they feel he didn’t do enough to support Trump’s repeated baseless claims that the 2020 election was stolen.
So along comes Jim Lamon, the next GOP candidate.Oliver took particular delight in tearing apart Lamon for a TV ad in which he stars as the hero in a Wild West shootout against “Old Joe,” “Shifty Kelly” and “Crazyface Pelosi.” He informs the trio that “The good people of Arizona have had enough for you,” before shooting a weapon out of each of their hands. Naturally, it closes with Lamon identifying himself, saying he approved the message.“Well, you shouldn’t have approved it Jim, because your ad is terrible,” Oliver joked.

Last Week Tonight yesterday (June 26), Oliver called the decision “absolutely horrifying”, adding: “It is hard to stomach some of the gleeful responses right now. You don’t get a holiday to celebrate the loss of rights for millions of people when you already have one, and it’s called Columbus Day.”The presenter noted: “Even when planned, pregnancy is, best cast scenario, a major medical event that rips open your butt, rips out your organs and then puts them in wrong.”He added: “The idea that you can simply seek another abortion in another state is insulting on its face even before you consider that some lawmakers are already openly looking for ways to punish out-of-state abortions.”Oliver also suggested that the US was now in “uncharted territory” rather than the days before Roe v.
