Jon Stewart Calls Out RFK Jr. for Not Protecting His Wife Cheryl Hines During WHCD Shooting, Says Stephen Miller Outshone Him
Stewart contrasted Kennedy’s rushed evacuation with Stephen Miller shielding his wife, after a gunman’s attempted breach triggered the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner evacuation.
- On Monday's episode of The Daily Show, host Jon Stewart criticized Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for failing to protect his wife, actor Cheryl Hines, during the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner evacuation on Saturday.
- A gunman's attempted breach of the Washington Hilton on Saturday triggered rapid evacuation, prompting Stewart to deride the event as a 'nerd prom' held in an inherently difficult-to-defend location.
- Footage displayed by Stewart showed Kennedy being whisked away by Secret Service personnel while Hines appeared momentarily stranded, contrasting sharply with White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller shielding his pregnant wife during the scramble.
- Hines later stated in an Instagram video that members of her husband's security team helped her exit the hotel, while Stewart joked Kennedy would spend his life explaining why he could not be more like Miller.
- Stewart expanded his critique beyond Kennedy to mock other attendees for weaponizing the incident for content, depicting the dinner as a window into how elite Washington figures prioritize self-interest during crises.
