John Oliver Takes Shots at Own Company’s DC Superhero Movies on ‘Last Week Tonight’

On Sunday's Last Week Tonight, John Oliver criticized Donald Trump's Department of Justice, describing its approach to civil rights as a bizarro-world version. Oliver specifically targeted the appointments of Todd Blanche, Trump's personal lawyer, and Jeanine Pirro. He argued that while the DOJ typically performs essential work, the current administration has seen a rise in political prosecutions, shifting the agency's focus away from genuinely important tasks and toward the interests of the President.
