Twitter War with Senator Cancun: On Twitter, the team replied to a tweet from Texas Senator Ted Cruz who was trying to debunk a recent segment where Trevor explained how the new US Census numbers affect states’ representation in the Federal government. The Twitter back and forth went throughout the day and into the evening, when Biden’s first 100 Days address to the nation was happening.

Klepper vs. Trump Supporters is the most-engaging Facebook video from a late night talk show with over 153M views across channels.

In the Awards space, The Daily Show is a 2021 Television Academy Honoree, a first ever win for the late night series.
