Jon Stewart dives into America and Israel's impromptu attack on Iran, Trump's laid-back war announcement from the Mar-a-Lago basement, and MAGA's refusal to sell the American people on the plan, purpose, and duration of the war. Plus, Jordan Klepper reveals America's calculated war strategy: winging it. Award-winning filmmaker Jafar Panahi sits down with Jon Stewart and his interpreter Sheida Dayani to discuss his latest film, "It Was Just An Accident," which is currently nominated for two Academy Awards. They talk about suffering a 20-year ban from filmmaking under the Iranian regime, the difference between a socially engaged filmmaker and one who caters to audiences, displaying the difference between humanity and authoritarianism through characters' doubt, and why, despite censorship and mass killings, he continues to return to Iran.
