Nothing gets the lefty media’s juices flowing like a liberal comedian explaining the news. The latest object of their affection? Comedian and former “Daily Show” correspondent John Oliver, who now breaks down current events on his own HBO show, “Last Week Tonight.”

Amazing for John Oliver, who came to America and became very successful, to mock the idea that people can achieve success in America.

People are living the American Dream every day. And the media fête a guy who tells us it’s a crock.
