“The Daily Show” called out the Republican party for making Donald Trump “sound like an indoor cat” while touting the need for a White House ballroom.

Host Josh Johnson weighed in on the situation during Tuesday’s monologue, where he suggested that the GOP had a “somehow dumber takeaway” following Saturday’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Specifically, after Trump said the attempted assassination proved that a White House ballroom was necessary, Republican leaders, including Lindsey Graham, co-signed this stance and promised to push a bill that would authorize $400 million for the president’s project.

“$400 million? That’s our money. Why do we have to pay for this? We didn’t try to shoot the president,” Johnson quipped. “Make this guy [suspect Cole Tomas Allen] pay for the ballroom.”

He continued: “This is the administration that is obsessed with government waste. I can’t believe they dissolved DOGE right before Trump demanded a $400-million ballroom. It’s like how the Michael Jackson movie ended right before he starts molesting.”

As Johnson went on, he noted that we’re in “such a crazy time now that events don’t even need to be connected to each other.” He also called out the hefty price tag proposed by Republicans, adding, “Is the roof going to be made of Coachella tickets? What could possibly make this thing cost so much?”

Yet, Johnson was left even more baffled by Republicans defending that the ballroom would avoid the dilemma of the president having to leave the White House grounds.

“Wait, wait. The president needs to walk out of his bedroom into the ballroom?” Johnson said. “This feels like it’s Lindsey’s dream. I can see Lindsey like, ‘I must rise from my silk sheets and directly into the cotillion. Oh, it’s a masked cotillion, where I can be my truest self.’”

“But still, as good as the White House is, Trump is going to have to leave sometimes,” Johnson noted before “The Daily Show” played Fox News clips suggesting that Trump shouldn’t have to leave the presidential residence. “Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. The president shouldn’t have to leave his house? You don’t want the leader of the free world to visit anything?”

At this moment, Johnson pondered if Trump was “depressed,” quipping, “Didn’t he just get McDonald’s DoorDashed to the house? That sounds like a man who’s given up on life, you know? Wait ’til he finds out about Snuggies. There have to be arguments for this ballroom that don’t just make the president sound like an indoor cat.”

“The Daily Show” airs weeknights at 11 p.m. ET on Comedy Central.

Forty years ago, Ross McElwee won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance for his breakthrough feature “Sherman’s March.” Last year, his latest film, “Remake,” premiered at the Venice Film Festival and took home the Golden Globes Impact Prize for Documentary. Now, as IndieWire shares, both films have been acquired by distributor Music Box Films, which will release “Remake” and a new 4K restoration of “Sherman’s March” later this year.

When it was released in 1986, “Sherman’s March” announced McElwee as a practitioner of a then relatively new form of first-person filmmaking, a style that would influence Michael Moore and Morgan Spurlock, among many others, on its way to becoming a dominant documentary subgenre. Ostensibly an attempt to retrace William Tecumseh Sherman’s Civil War march to the sea, the movie becomes a meditation on the “New South” via McElwee’s interactions with women he meets while filming.

Shot on 16mm with McElwee essentially acting as a one-person crew, “Sherman’s March” was added to the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry in 2000 and endures as one of the landmark independent films of the 1980s. For decades, the film has been available only in standard-definition video, making the 40th-anniversary 4K restoration a major event for cinephiles.

In typical McElwee fashion, “Remake” begins with one subject but veers into other, more productive areas. The film’s title comes from McElwee’s account of “Paul Blart: Mall Cop” director Steve Carr’s ill-fated attempt to create a Hollywood remake of “Sherman’s March” as a “peak TV” comedy series, but “Remake” is really about McElwee’s relationship with his son Adrian, who died in 2016 of an accidental drug overdose. Adrian has been a recurring figure in McElwee’s films since “Time Indefinite” in 1993, and in “Remake,” McElwee explores his son’s life and their father/son relationship via decades of footage.

The result is what IndieWire called “an affecting tribute to his son’s life that doubles as a reflective, career-spanning culmination of his life’s work” when the film premiered at Venice in September. Through his relationship with his son, McElwee explores the passage of time and the thorny issues raised by documenting one’s own life and the lives of those close to the documentarian; the poignancy of the film comes from the fact that McElwee’s filmmaking both celebrates Adrian’s life and is considered a factor in his struggles while alive.

The newly restored “Sherman’s March” will open at the Film Forum on July 3, with “Remake” beginning its theatrical rollout at the same theater on July 10 before expanding nationwide. Both are essential viewing.

Just in time for the 2026 World Cup, football, er… soccer, is back on Apple TV with the return of “Ted Lasso” for Season 4 after a hiatus of three years and questions of if the main cast of stars would return.

Apple announced on Tuesday that Season 4 will premiere on streaming on Wednesday, August 5, 2026 with one episode, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through October 7.

“Ted Lasso” won 13 Emmys in its initial run, including Outstanding Comedy Series in its first two seasons. Even during its hiatus, the show remains one of the more popular Apple TV series consistently.

Season 4 is executive produced by a newcomer to the series Jack Burditt (“Nobody Wants This,” “Modern Family,” “30 Rock”) as part of an overall deal with Apple TV. Sudeikis stars and executive produces alongside Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly, Jane Becker, Jamie Lee, and Bill Wrubel. Brett Goldstein serves as writer and executive producer alongside Leanne Bowen. Sarah Walker and Phoebe Walsh will serve as writers and producers, and Sasha Garron co-produces. Julia Lindon will write for Season 4, and Dylan Marron will serve as story editor.

Bill Lawrence executive produces via his Doozer Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television and Universal Television, a division of NBCUniversal Content. Doozer’s Jeff Ingold and Liza Katzer also serve as executive producers. The series was developed by Sudeikis, Lawrence, Kelly, and Hunt as based on a character from an NBC Sports sketch.
