It’s not even tht hard to get to USC, not easy but not $500,000

@@victorserrano7939 ikr, that costs more than the actual tuition combined over 4 years.

Sorry, the kids have flights to catch, red carpet and after parties to attend. Rich people problems

That would involve studying like the peasants. Easier to buy it.

I agree! But they don't like "hard work" 😅

Not forgetting "I did it all on my own!" No help from anyone so stop expecting handouts and work hard 💁💆

Yes, while they are chesting and taking handouts.

the act isn't shocking, but personally...I'm shocked something is being done about it. That's kind of cool, right? That's interesting to me, at least. Maybe something will happen, maybe nothing will, but the whole situation of trying to stop them is pretty shocking.

That's true. What's shocking is that someone's taking action against it.

@@Nick30468 I know right? Hopefully the parents get more than just a slap on the wrist.

Isn't "my parent donated to the school, so now I'm in" a super usual statement at American colleges?

I guess it's usually assumed that that's just something people do to not make enemies of rich people, or, as Trevor mentioned, for the good ole' library donation and/or because the kid is "a legacy student". Not that there are actually people paying hundreds of thousands to have pictures taken of their kids playing a sport they've never played. That just seems like way too much work to put in to it. Like, imagine if you'd spent all that money on your kid's tuition instead so that they actually *gasp* LEARNED SOMETHING.

Trump is a billionaire.

Andrew Wilson false.

@@andrewwilson3034 No, he's not. If he were he would be shoving it (proof like tax returns) in our faces.

Tht is funny

@@ericplumhoff9208 Trump was ONCE a billionaire. Once. That is why he is hiding his tax returns. It takes one HELL of a failure to be born into such massive wealth and to fuck up your way to bankruptcy.

No but it only works when blow them all out at once!

@@annamelvina216 Who made that rule? It's time for some change.

@KaptainKarma Hahahaha 😅

😂😂😂😂

He didn't want to blow germs onto the cake. I get it now. I'm surprised I never thought of that before.

Nothing new about it. Corruption is everywhere.

@@sodvine3486 Exactly. It's not just the rich. Our culture is corrupt from top to bottom. The fact that cheating, corruption, and dishonesty is mainstream and endemic is the elephant in the room in American discourse.

With money they probably didn't really earn.

The sad thing is there kids out there that work hard and are smart enough to go to those schools Not me

@@Ansonidak you pivoted the argument. The issue is not about overall cheating and corruption, the issue is about wealthy people who don't play by the rules because of their wealth. When you can't focus on the issue, you are undermining your own efforts for justice.

👀

Meh.....

The Josh O Show did you just quote yourself? 🤦‍♀️

😂

@@5pctLowBattery brought to us by... Shamelessly promoting their own channel.

I so loved aunt Becky but this here😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Thank god I needed that😏

"You're in big trouble, mister!"

To be fair that whole "something so compelling and bipartisan" thing makes me wonder if she's sitting on something fitting that description and is just saying that to seem "reasonable" so the Republicans will join her when it comes out.

strikeslifer I don't remember that episode on Full House 🤔

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6sW4C2gWAws.html

With that money, he could afford Stanford AND Yale

That is how stupid it is out there. This is like 5 undergraduate + graduate school tuitions altogether. Somewhere 5 students who qualified with the grades are taking on $125,000 loans for school while these guys are paying this “change” money so their kid can get in, tuition non included.

To get into a top University it takes money and brain. Their problem was that they only had the money.

Cheaper to keep the kid at home or bribe someone at MCDS to get a job flipping burgers

I think they could have invested in proper education to teach the kids. If they are simply not capable of learning, spend the money preparing them for your eventual demise.

Hah, yes, that would be spectacular.

@@Gnolde That would be amazing. I was admittedly expecting the cake before Trevor Noah said his quip (I watch way too much Last Week Tonight).

I thought of John Oliver too, then Trevor said "we're not John Oliver" and I was shook

Honestly, when he talked about bringing out a cake, I immediately thought about John. That joke was on point!

@@Gnolde he won't just bring out a cake, he'll bring out trevor inside ab giant twinkie stripper 🍰

Star Cherry well look at the white house

Star Cherry yup!

Star Cherry....that's been a fact for at least as long as monetary wealth has existed.

people who create wealth = intelligent people who receive wealth = not so intelligent ( There are exceptions)

Some of the greatest achievers, inventors and scientists came from very humble backgrounds. This is why it makes sense to tax the wealthy and invest in education. A nation that invests in its people will always advance and prosper more. You don't have to be a genius to understand how effective meritocracy can be.

Pablo Sánchez nope it’s just influence and power. Rich people play by different rules. Tough shit.

New rich kids! Old money has legacy admissions. The real affirmative action program we have in this country.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6sW4C2gWAws.html

Unfortunately this is what America is based on since it's inception. Spoiled brats being in positions that they are not qualified to be in making decisions. At least it has come out. However it won't change anything. They willget a slap on the wrist because the judges do it too

Not what affirmative action is but I get your point

Yeah I thought the same thing. I'ma do that for my birthday

do you mean 72 virgins?

Paper Mario Corporations are people my friend. My dog is on the roof.

That’s all good and well if he wasn’t still blowing them over the damn twinkies🤦🏽‍♂️

Each candle means another blessing 😂 😂

Same lol

Mitt doesn't even know what spit is.

look at the top comment

Cus they don't get it.

Its just about hbo's budget that he burns through

See Samantha Bee's clip about it

Lydia Waweru-Morgan some of the kids didn’t know that their parents were doing that

preach!

That's a really stupid comment. "Let's unfairly punish these kids because those other kids are being unfairly punished". I sincerely hope that you don't have kids.

Nah, just expel them or revoke their degrees

I'm making a point.

😂😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

not enough dragons on comedy central.

After the last episode where John Oliver set up a robocall program to make automated calls to top leaders of the FCC, it's even more funny. Gotta love that "HBO dragon money".

atleast they would be of some use :)

Yeah, what's legal shouldn't be either! It's crazy.

They should’ve sent their kids to a library.

I think that's a reference to something, but I don't know what.

I mean who fakes joining the crew team.

trump/pence will HARM MORE PEOPLE THE LONGER THEY 'RE IN POWER!!!

Agreed. But what about also covering all the times non-entertainment business people cheat their kids into college? What about politicians, businessmen, etc?

Apparently rodney Dangerfield thought so.

There's a new book called Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Wants to Stop Cows from Farting.

Your*

You mean people should only be admitted if they EARN their place? *GASP!* SAY IT AIN'T SOOOOO?!?! #HOLYSHIT #OHMYGOD #ADDITIONALSUPERLATIVES 😱

Donald Trump let’s not kid ourselves, these idiots weren’t even close to the affirmative action students

@Megan .HNo shit sherlock, tell me more.

I was laughing so hard I cried until I remembered that my great uncle donated money to Harvard to build their library...

As a microbiologist I support your comment one hundred 💯 percent. Can you imagen lots of microscopic droplets of saliva full of germs going to those cakes 🧁 right before you are going to have them? No way! Mr. Romney is very considerate and clever blowing the candles the hygienic way.

Yeah, that's what I assumed he was doing. I highly doubt he was planning on eating that whole cake all be himself; at his age it'd probably be quite dangerous for his cholesterol.

That is why I never eat birthday cake

typeerk Mitt is apparently a rare person who knows that when you blow out the candles that you are blowing spit all over the birthday cake.🎂

Omg 🙏🏽😨😨

I don't actually have a problem with tutors, although I wish they were available to more students who need them and not just the rich ones. But obviously students should have to do their own homework and write their own papers.

Same bro ✊

It may sound like a good idea. But don't let these devils wear down your integrity. They committed a crime.

People with tons of money stole then from the periode actually doing the work (or others stole it from their sheep to buy you out). Believing an activision ceo that falls and fails, even if they did perfect statement it's still true, is worth several thousand times that of the designer or coder doing the actual work is laughable and only brainwashed morons are stupid enough to believe such absurd and obvious lies...

You mean “pay” for you to attend school. Your comment implies you took out a loan for bribery.

Same😞😔

Its evident with his spelling and grammar he didnt make it past elementary

joseph bradford love it!

joseph bradford 😳 so if that’s the case then he probably did say some f’d up stuff to warrant that kind of punishment.

Yeah cause he was being a jerk off and acting like a child!

Shay, at least that way everyone in the school benefits. And you can still look at the rich student and laugh your @$$ off when they stumble over remedial... everything. Really, if my folks bought my admission through endowment of a building... I'd change my identity. Who wants to walk around for 5+ years as a target of open derision? Though you'd absolutely deserve it in that situation. And at least it's a social issue that unites all groups in their mockery.

@@davidblair3958 The school benefits from the library student's parents, but what about the 30% of students who are legacies and also don't qualify? That's a whole lot of students who deserve a top school not getting in or having to settle for another school who also has legacy student issues. This is the real reason Asian students are suing Harvard, though "affirmative action" is what they are blaming. It isn't affirmative action, which also states how many white people have to be there, it's the legacy students. They are taking the spots of people who earned it by hard work and determination.

Dante Crailman Yep😳😂

😂

What were they initially investigating?

What's with the cliffhanger in your comment?! Tell us what else they were investigating LOL

That makes sense, because this has been common knowledge for generations and no one ever investigated or charged anyone.

German Bobadilla not Westbrook the segment, they didn’t dig into the fans social media to reveal that he post racist and xenophobic shit.

Literally my face like “what in Thee helll🤨”

He's like... " What the fuck are you doing?"

Alex O'mayaley haha

Yeah I don't get this. Is John Oliver richer than Trevor? Why? Both have been working cable news for years. Does HBO pay that much?

He probably meant the show's budget, which at first I thought was weird considering that "The Daily Show" is more established than "Last Week Tonight" but kind of makes sense when you remember that "Last Week Tonight" only does one show a week and so probably has a larger budget per episode.

@@onemoment6769 HBO's got the dragon money.

onemoment no but HBO has money to do the investigations and research

Not John Oliver's money. A&t's money.

Fofee ..true. Corruption is the oldest profession.

You mean Mitt Romney blowing out his candles? Yeah probably

Tack another zero onto that number, dudeski. Rich people have been at it for waaaay longer.

Exactly. I would spend that on Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, even Duke.

For 500k she cudve started a business 4 her kid...skip school.

@@CandieP ii

USC is the only school that would take the illegal money given her grades.

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's not even in a good area.

AZ agreed, "f*** who's the baddest, a person's status depends on salary

...not a slap on wrist, more like a thump ; ) lol

nicholas schoonbeck I know, pretty stupid comment on her behalf, these people care more about their jobs than the people who they supposed to be working for "US"

Jorge duarte you can’t work for the government if you don’t have your job. Not their fault that the people in their districts are too stupid to actually elect them unless they say a bunch of crazy shit

Well Trump did win the election and trying to impeach him won’t look good for the dems in 2020. You want 4 more years of Trump or a dem in office?

you cant work for the government if you dont have your job? sorry you lost me there

Space Racer26 first off they wont go and try to impeach him if they dont have enough proof which the republicans did try to do with clinton and thats why they were hated, here we got a president that has done more shady crap than any other president in office in less than 4 years and the dems are worry to look bad? how? makes no damn sense

Yeah, but he ended up touching every piece. Likely there was no hand washing before he was surprised with the cake.

@@tunajune2382 i think he just grab each candle not each twinkie

It's a twinkies cake. I doubt any germs on earth could containminate that cake. ROFL

Olivia (Lori's daughter) sure knew, she even took fake rowing pictures and she was too dumb to fill out her application so they even let that company handle that for her

Hahaha!! I saw the hat and got instantly suspicious 😂😂😂

Lmao I thought oh shit he's one of those "Good ol boys!"

He had the camo hat and the slight accent and somehow I had a feeling that he wasn’t an innocent bystander in this lol

Or you can be like Master Shi Fu and use palm of the wind against it

I was thinking the same, that's the most obvious reason!

Yeah I figured that might be the case but still it's weird as hell

I thought it was actually thoughtful but if you look at the other candles, he still blew right at the Twinkies. Lol. It was a good thought though.

Exactly!

How about as part of their punishment, all included (students too, as they aren't innocent in this fracas) have to pay the student loan debt of randomly drawn individuals? I figure most of the elites get a fine/community service, and the peons go to prison. This way the penalties go to those who need it the most. And we film the results for RU-vid, which funds more debt relief. Either that, or everyone gets "CHEAT" permanently plastered on their respective foreheads. A la Inglorious Basterds. At least that way it would make for great board meetings, Oscar ceremonies and photo opportunities. Wouldn't happen as much anymore, or perhaps they'd get smarter in their nefarious dealings. One question, however... who plays whom in the inevitable biopic or Lifetime drama?

@Megan .H You know he was caught lying in the first place for Trump's benefit, right? You're basically saying he must be lying about Trump's supposed guilt because he was lying about Trump's supposed innocence. Also, you should question why Trump seems to gravitate towards liars like Cohen and criminals like Manafort and other members of his campaign staff, who all coincidentally are found to have lied, or are indicted for lying, when it comes to their foreign contacts (such as with Russians). If everyone's a crook around Trump, what kind of person is he? A crook, or a wannabe boss of crooks, a mobster?

yeah, i was just thinking the same thing, that's very considerate

Yeah, agreed

Could have left them in their little sleeves, like Twinkie condoms!

He said he was getting over a cold and didn't want to make anyone sick.

Probably would have been more effective if he wasn't facing the cake as he blew them out. He still gets a A for effort .

mariam Sh try again❤️ Best of luck to you

Phyllisha Hart thank you 💗💗

The fact of the matter is it doesn't matter where you go to college. There are people who go to Harvard just to party and their parents take care of them their whole lives. Wheverever you go, as long as you are doing what you love and actually making the most of college, you'll already be a million times better off then those rich douchebags!

randommob2806 thank you, appreciate that you took the time to write this ❤️

h@aaaaaaa

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Fofee Mike "Pray the Gay Away" Pence

Exactly let's just ride this shit out and do better next time, 2019 is going by quickly

He's a Christian Dominionist, a group so wacky other Christians are afraid of it.

He's bad BUT this would mean Trump can't run for a second term AND Pence doesn't have the rabid fan base Trump does.

@Megan .H It will be extremely sad for you.

Especially trump.

Dimitrije Popovic look at the list again. it says administrators (like the Dean for example) are being investigated so yes the colleges themselves are being held responsible....unless you are referring to the fact that they are being left out of the general public ridicule then I'd agree with you.

truth

The master mind of this scheme is cooperating, which is why, they're now saying it's over 600 people involved.

The seven Candle brothers will be thrilled

🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Mingo 92545 Harvard isn’t on the list

Yup lol

Except he's still standing over the whole thing as he blows each one out. XD

Yeah, saying she wont impeach is sooo good...

maggie198333 she’s definitely got either something good up her sleeve to get him with, or she’s got something on him that’s going to shake him to the core! I’d LOVE to be a fly on the wall when the shyt hits the fan when she pulls that final card out on him tho!

Gotta keep the rich rich, and the poor poorer. Gotta be able to call the poor people 'lazy' due to 'not trying hard enough', while secretly paying everyone off so our own kids never even need to attempt to try.

Jim Corrigan High Schools are DEFINITELY involved, especially private high schools. Since parents pay for a 'top notch' education, they get a lot of these perks (Passing loser, lazy children) as well.

We all know Mitt Romney is an alien in a human skin suit but this is weird even for him

Yes, I actually would prefer this method-especially if it is a kid's cake. Lol.

What a revolting pig! "Playing around" my ass!!

Greedy and Stupid is predictable and loud, it's shameful but, endurable. Pence would drown cats if they thought they would go to heaven...no, that's a little hyperbolic, though he would support electrocuting gay kids until they were straight.

The dude thought Brazil was in Central America......

Andrew Hershberger Dude, that electrocuting gay kids thing you said made me spill my coffee. Thanks.

the BiGGEST Kick in the BaLLS YOU Can Give to Trump/Putin is to Elect A Woman President to the United States of America.

RIXRADvidz It's important we pick a leader of substance, not just bc they are or aren't a woman. I can't wait until we just get back to sanity.

Serai3 Look at all these superstar athletes. Half of them can’t even put together a sentence yet they make to these D1 schools and pass all their classes lol

They don't just bribe them to get in they bribe them to pass ahead as well

I’m kinda sad cause I love watching Olivia Jade but I just really confused..

Yep.

agrey832 my first thought too! Oh, of course it’s that guy 😒

Probably though he would blend into his surroundings so he could yell at Westbrook unseen.

Easier for Westbrook to pull the race card?

@@wvusmc Especially when racist rhetoric is spewed.

savagedragon79 Oh, sure, be all pragmatic about it... 😁😁😁

Yeah. He probably didn't want to accidentally spit on the cake.

No he's making wishes for each

We all know Mitt Romney is an alien in a human skin suit but this is weird even for him

I agree I don’t understand why people want to blow spit all over the whole cake.

That's not how affirmative action works. How do I know? Money is way more effective.

@Hekat the Evil B-tch 😅😅😅😅

Same here. Once someone spits on a cake I pass. Gross

I'll wait for the bait

I'd love to see kazuma talk with trump

Will probably be a few years after the investigation that we start to piece together everything from that rabbit hole.

How did trump get into college probably the same way he stayed out of Vietnam, by his father bribing someone.

@Megan .H did you mean to comment on my post, maybe you clicked the wrong comment to reply to.

Yeah, roping the wife into it was too far, but he didn't seem to be having a good time with some playful banter or harmless heckling. And the fan gave us no reason to believe he didn't say something racist, aside from just claiming he didn't. Which is hardly compelling coming from a guy who thought he and an obviously upset athlete were just having a good time yelling at one another.

@@WhatKindOfNameNow Considering the fan got banned from the arena....excuse me, a lifetime ban from the arena whatever he said couldn't have been too legit.

UTAH Jazz fans are the worst though . No one likes playing there

@Marcus Anderson He has 5 kids. What do you think?

And stupid, rich men like Trump keeping those planes in the American sky.

Carca Peru Doesn’t matter how smart someone is, but designing planes is really hard and needs a lot of people. If a lot of people work on 1 big project it is easy to have mistakes. Boeing is the most succesful company for producing aircrafts. There still needs to be some testing with Boeing 737 MAX. Nobody knows what the problem is. The smartest people on earth too. There is nothing to blame Boeing when their other planes are one of the best.
