COMEDY CENTRAL ANNOUNCES "THE DAILY SHOW PRESENTS: JORDAN KLEPPER FINGERS THE PULSE: RED FLAGS"

Special Premieres Monday, October 26 at 11:30pm ET/PT following The Daily Show on Comedy Central

Thursday, October 15, 2026 (New York, NY) - Comedy Central today announced The Daily Show Presents: Jordan Klepper Fingers the Pulse: Red Flags, the latest from the Emmy(R)-winning Jordan Klepper Fingers the Pulse series. The special premieres immediately following The Daily Show on Monday, October 26 at 11:30pm ET/PT and will be available on Paramount+, The Daily Show's YouTube Channel, and VOD on Tuesday, October 27.

As the 2026 midterms approach, the MAGA coalition is seeing red flags everywhere: plummeting poll numbers, an unpopular war with Iran, rising gas prices and a pile of rubble where the East Wing once stood. Jordan Klepper hits the campaign trail, traveling across the country and discovers McCarthy-era red scare tactics, right wing Texans obsessed with god's genitals, and a group of Trump die-hards who have turned tail on the MAGA movement. Can President Trump hold his fraying coalition together, or will these red flags lead to a blue wave? Klepper tries to find out in his newest half-hour special.

This latest installment builds on the success of Jordan Klepper's critically acclaimed specials and viral segments, following back-to-back Emmy wins for "Outstanding Writing for a Nonfiction Program" for The Daily Show Presents: Jordan Klepper Fingers The Pulse: Give The Man A Prize (2026) and The Daily Show Presents: Jordan Klepper Fingers The Pulse: MAGA: The Next Generation (2025).
