Wednesday’s Full Frontal on TBS was off the rails straight from the get-go as host Samantha Bee railed against the Trump administration for enforced tough immigration policies. After smearing the President, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and First Lady Melania Trump, Bee turned her twisted sights on Ivanka Trump and begged her to seduce her father to get him to change his policies. On top of that, she described the President’s daughter as a “feckless c**t.” How pathetic.
Bee spent her entire A-block angrily ranting about how tough the Trump administration was on people illegally crossing the border and how they were tearing apart families. She then showed a picture of Ivanka holding one of her children and bitterly claimed it was “the second most oblivious tweet we've seen this week.”
“You know, Ivanka, that's a beautiful photo of you and your child,” Bee spat as her rage was about to explode. “[B]ut let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad's immigration practices, you feckless c**t. He listens to you!”
A childhood picture of Ivanka sitting on her father’s lap flashed on the screen as Bee coached her on how to seduce her own father. “Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it! Tell him it was an Obama thing and see how it goes. Ok?” And that wasn’t all Bee had to say about the Trump administration.
After playing a clip of an MSNBC report talking about how Sessions and the DOJ wanted to prosecute 100 percent of illegal border crossers, Bee sharpened her talons. “Wow, 100 percent of people. That’s a big goal for someone who's only 25 percent of a person. Tearing children away from their parents is so evil, it's the inciting incident in almost every movie we've ever cared about,” she chided.
“If only Trump had as much empathy for Central American kids as I assume he does for a fictional fish who wants to touch a boat, but he doesn't. According to a haunted marionette, Jeff Sessions, these babies are actually baby criminals,” she continued.
Bee seemed reluctant to admit the problems with the immigration system predated the Trump administration and there were plenty of inhumane things going on under President Obama. “So, no, Donald Trump didn't invent this issue. He's just making it so much worse. Now everyone who even approaches the border is treated like a criminal,” she whined.
She also mocked Melania for valuing her privacy and depicted her as a monster living under a bed at the White House. “It's true, Melania lives in the White House and nobody can find her. It's ok, she's being best under there,” he jabbed at the First Lady’s initiative by the same name.
It was the latest chapter in Bee’s vile smears and perverted rambling directed at President Trump and his family. Given what has happened this week with Roseanne Barr being fired for despicable, racist comments, it’s interesting to see if TBS will act. The show is apparently being honored with an Emmy for "advancing social change." What kind of change would that be given this lunacy?

TBS's Full Frontal with Samantha Bee
May 30, 2018
10:30:45 PM EasternSAMANTHA BEE: We are going to talk about racism and I just popped an Ambien, so buckle up everyone! You know what? Believe it or not, something even more important was on Twitter this week.
STEPHANIE RULE: The trump administration is separating undocumented children from their parents at the border. It is part of Attorney General Jeff Sessions' plan to prosecute 100 percent of the people crossing the border illegally. And this includes potential asylum seekers and undocumented workers.
BEE: Wow, 100 percent of people. That’s a big goal for someone who's only 25 percent of a person. Tearing children away from their parents is so evil, it's the inciting incident in almost every movie we've ever cared about.

BEE: If only Trump had as much empathy for Central American kids as I assume he does for a fictional fish who wants to touch a boat, but he doesn't. According to a haunted marionette, Jeff sessions, these babies are actually baby criminals.
(…)
BEE: So, no, Donald Trump didn't invent this issue. He's just making it so much worse. Now everyone who even approaches the border is treated like a criminal.
(…)
BEE: It's true, Melania lives in the White House and nobody can find her. It's ok, she's being best under there. Because the ORR doesn't keep track of all the kids it's placed, there's no reliable way to make sure they weren't released into the custody of human traffickers as was the case with eight teenagers in 2014 forced to work on a chicken farm in atrocious conditions. How the f**k did that happen?
(…)
BEE: Two people following the process to the letter were forcibly separated and spent their first four months in this country detained in different time zones. So now, after decades of ignoring the issue, Americans are finally paying attention. Well, most of us.
Ivanka Trump, who works at the White House, chose to post the second most oblivious tweet we've seen this week. You know, Ivanka, that's a beautiful photo of you and your child, but let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad's immigration practices, you feckless c**t. He listens to you! Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it! Tell him it was an Obama thing and see how it goes. Ok?
