>> Stephen: HEY EVERYBODY, WELCOME BACK.
I GOT A QUESTION FOR YOU.
WE WERE TALKING EARLIER IN THE SHOW TONIGHT ABOUT SCARAMUCCI.
HE TALKED ABOUT I'M NOT A BACK STABBER, I'M MORE OF A
FRONT-STABBER.
>> THAT'S VERY CORDIAL.
>> Stephen: DO YOU LIKE FRONT STABBERS OR BACK STABBERS?
>> I GUESS I WOULD PREFER FRONT STABBERS?
I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT COMING, I GUESS I WOULD LIKE IN THE BACK.
IT HAS TO BE A FATAL BLOW.
HE'S QUICK.
>> Stephen: I STILL HEAR HIM CACKLING.
>> AND THAT WHOLE MOMENT WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME?
THEN YOU -- >> Stephen: I DON'T THINK
YOUR KIDS SHOULD WATCH THIS SHOW EITHER.
>> I'M A REALLY GOOD MOM!
I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT CLEAR.
>> Stephen: SOMETHING READY READY -- REALLY EXCITING.
YOU TOOK YOURSELF AND YOU WENT TO IRAQ.
>> YES I DID.
>> Stephen: I WEREN'T MANY, MANY YEARS AGO BUT JUST BAGHDAD,
WHERE DID YOU GO?
>> WE ACTUALLY WENT TO IRAQI KURDISTAN.
NORTHERN IRAQ AND A COUPLE OF CITIES THERE.
IT WAS FASCINATING THERE.
I JUST LOVED GOING.
>> Stephen: WAS THE WAR THERE NOW?
>> WHEN WE WERE THERE THE FIGHTING WAS VERY INTENSE IN
MOSUL AND WHERE WE WERE WAS 40 TO 50 MILES AWAY FROM MOSUL.
DIDN'T SEEM LIKE THAT FAR, AND OTHERS SAID, IS THAT MOSUL OVER
THERE?
:00 THE>> Stephen: THERE WAS A FABULOUS PHOTO OF JARED KUSHNER,
A LITTLE BIT OF HIS STYLISH -- ARE THESE ALL KURDISH SOLDIERS?
>> IT'S A KUSHNER HOMAGE.
WHO SPENT TIME WITH THE FEMALE PESHMERGA SOLDIERS, WE DID A LOT
OF INTERESTING STUFF.
WHAT WE ENDED UP DOING, WE WILL HAVE A BUNCH OF PIECES, THE NEXT
TWO WEEKS WE'LL HAVE PIECES FROM IRAQ.
BUT WE ENDED UP DOING OUR FIRST TRUMP POSITIVE PIECE IN
KURDISTAN.
THEY DO, THEY LOVE HIM.
THERE ARE SO MANY BABIES BEING BORN AND THEY ARE BEING NAMED
TRUMP.
MALE OR FEMALE.
>> Stephen: I BELIEVE WE HAVE A CLIP OF THAT JIM.
>> INTRODUCE US TO YOUR BABY.
HE'S SO CUTE!
WHAT HAPPENS IF I TUSSLE HIS HAIR?
IS THAT NORMALIZING YOU?
TK HOW LONG WERE YOU THERE?
>> FOUR OR -- >> Stephen: HOW LONG WERE YOU
THERE?
>> FOUR OR FIVE DAYS.
I LOVED I.T.
>> Stephen: DID YOU GO STRAIGHT STRAIT THERE OR --
>> WE WENT THROUGH TURKEY ON THE WAY THERE AND QATAR ON THE WAY
BACK.
>> Stephen: WERE YOU AFRAID FOR YOUR SAFETY AT ANY TIME WHEN
YOU WERE OVER THERE?
>> I THINK IT WAS BEFOREHAND.
I WAS VERY WORRIED BEFOREHAND.
I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.
BUT ONCE WE WERE ON THE GROUND I NEVER FELT UNSAFE AT ALL.
WE HAD A REALLY GOOD TIME.
MET SUCH INTERESTING PEOPLE AND SAW AS MUCH INTERESTING THINGS.
I MET SOME AMAZING PEOPLE!
TUC>> Stephen: YOU WERE ABLE TO GET OFF THE INTERNET OR OFF
TWITTER WHEN YOU WERE OVER THERE?
>> NO, YOU COULDN'T ESCAPE.
I TRIED TO ESCAPE, THAT'S WHY I WENT TO IRAQ.
>> Stephen: MILITARY FLIGHTS?
>> NO COMMERCIAL FLIGHTS, COMMERCIAL FLIGHTS STILL GO INTO
KURDISTAN.
WE CAN ALL GO, ANY ONE OF US CAN GO.
>> Stephen: MAYBE SPRING BREAK.
>> THAT'S HOW I RELAX IN THIS NEW WORLD WE LIVE IN.
>> >> Stephen: I HAVEN'T HAD A
CHANCE, HAVEN'T SEEN YOU SINCE YOU WERE NOMINATED FOR EMMYS.
(APPLAUSE) >> Stephen: THE DAILY SHOW,
FIRST FEMALE HOST IN LATE NIGHT TALK, TO BE NOMINATED.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I'LL BEING, I'LL -- I'LL BE HOSTING, PUT IN A GOOD WORD FOR
YOU.
"FULL FRONTAL" HOSTS WEDNESDAYS ON TBS,
SAMANTHA BEE, EVERYBODY!
