Jon Stewart had some fun mocking the news coverage of his “secret” meetings with President Obama — though in fact, the two meetings were both on the White House visitor logs: “Something is not a ‘secret’ just because you don’t know about it.”

The Daily Show correspondent Jordan Klepper also interviewed an Arkansas pastor, who insisted that the local LGBT rights ordinance is actively discriminating against him. (Spoiler: It isn’t.)

Jimmy Kimmel highlighted the story that Donald Trump gold a breastfeeding lawyer she was “disgusting.”
