Jon Stewart unravels the absurd "weave" that was Trump's Inauguration Day, from Joe Biden's buzzer-beater pardons to the tech billionaire VIPs in attendance to the new president's passive-aggressive transfer of power. Plus, the Best F**kin News Team has full coverage on day one of the second Trump era. Brooke Harrington, economic sociologist at Dartmouth College and author of "Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism," sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss modern American oligarchies and the behavior of the ultra-rich. They talk about Donald Trump's "broligarchy" of America's tech billionaires, how they differ from the oligarchs of Russia and the Gilded Age, the lack of oblige and social norms imposed on these tech tycoons, and how a coalition of laborers is the only way to dismantle the system.
