Even if The Sacklers didn’t get their true comeuppance, I’ll forever be thankful for Last Week Tonight for putting a spotlight on the Opioid Crisis and on that horrible family.

There is actually still hope now because the supreme court (I know, I am as surprised they actually did something good for once as everyone else) just recently ruled that it is illegal to wave all future possible litigation. Which means their deal is void and they can still be sued for more damages than what they paid in their first deal.
Good thing we solved all these problems since 2016, John. Thanks for the reminder, John.
Hearing Hilary makes me so sad for what could have been.

It's unbelievable how people think that Trump is not what he is....
To those complaining "my feeds, my precious feeds" stop whining. It's one batch of 30ish videos surrounded by hundreds of others. I pretty much only use the home page or go to channels I'm in the mood for, so I popped into 'subscriptions' to see what people were whining about.... it's nothing. The 'Shorts' section that you can't opt out of takes almost as much room since they're vertically framed. Maybe if you're only subbed to 2 or 3 channels or something it'd bury them... but not deeply, it's only 30 videos. LWT is being awesome by uploading these all at once giving us stuff to watch while they're off for the holiday, they even put them in a playlist. Thank you for doing that LWT, you're awesome. Now if only you could make it so these 8 year old videos weren't so relevant to today...

@@philipreid2542 you can still scroll past it. If on a phone, simply flick your finger really fast, and stop when you stop seeing JO's blurred face as the thumbnail. Done. Takes 5 seconds on a phone. If on a computer, then you can scroll past as well, but you may need to adjust how many lines each scroll tick is if you want to get past them all in 5 seconds. Either way, it's still a matter of seconds to scroll past the episodes, and once you've caught up to the point that they started these uploads, you don't have to scroll past them at all anymore, so it's really a pathetic thing to complain about.

My grandma has chronic pain and takes an opioid and right out the gate her doctor gave her that nasal spray. And she also she gave me her bottle so she wouldn’t take too many a day.
Trump's been talking about ninth-month and post-birth abortion since 2016. And nobody ever calls him on it.

He was referring to a real quote from the former governor of Virginia, I believe. He said sometimes a mother gets to decide if they resuscitate a born alive baby with congenital defects. The implication being if she choses ‘no’, they let the baby suffocate on the table.

Good morning, Mr. Oliver. You aren’t likely to see this comment, but I digress. I’m a struggling Uber driver, and my colleagues all are extremely dissatisfied with Uber as an employer. They take significantly more than the fare than they say they do, and are stealing OUR money. The pay and work is getting consistently worse over time, and all of us are quitting and looking for work elsewhere. I personally am becoming a Police officer for my local jurisdiction, and maybe in a few years, become a private investigator. I think the dark truths you’ll find behind the facades of rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft will give you tons of ammunition for content, and you’d be doing good work exposing those modern Enrons for who they really are.

Hmm I wonder if this opioid problem will get worse 🤔
While the Sacklers poured gasoline on the fire, the biggest predictor of addiction is, and always has been poverty and trauma. We need to decriminalize use, and invest the money being used pursuing, convicting and incarcerating people who are addicted into treatment and job subsidies.

6:37 John, you poor little brit. We NEVER found Don entertaining except as a joke. He was not entertaining back when you SHOULD HAVE FUCKING RELEASED THESE, and he is not entertaining now.
No one's going to see this comment, but I think whoever runs the LastWeekTonight youtube channel should put these LWT library videos on an alternate channel, maybe call it Last Week Tonight Library. Dumping these videos here makes it marginally harder to find videos from the current season. Not a big deal, but it would be easier for everyone to find what they're looking for.
That woman in the audience really destroys the jokes Oliver is telling...
Trump has the delivery of a wheel barrow with a flat tire. Maybe read through the jokes once or twice before you get on mic.
