But now that Biden is in, I don\u2019t know, do you find yourself sometimes saying, \u2018Oh boy, there\u2019s a nasty comedy bit I can unload on Biden,\u2019 but saying to yourself, \u2018I approve of him so much I\u2019m going to pull this punch?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t deny that that has happened, I think that\u2019s probably true across the board,\u201d Bee responded, as reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/samantha-bee-biden-pulls-punches\">Fox News<\/a>. \u201cYou\u2019re like, \u2018OK, well, we could be making jokes about the infrastructure plan,\u2019 but in general, I\u2019m like, \u2018Wow, this is great.\u2019 Why would I purposefully undermine something that seems to be a great idea, pretty much across the board?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bee said she prefers to \u201cmake jokes\u201d toward \u201cmore worthy targets\u201d while saying she will hit the Biden administration when she feels its necessary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like to make really targeted jokes,\u201d she said. \u201cThere are more worthy targets right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Samantha Bee on Covering President Biden vs. President Trump\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4nuBD6qMe64?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>In 2018,&nbsp;Samantha Bee found herself at the center of controversy when&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/samantha-bee-tears-into-feckless-cunt-ivanka-trump\">she called Ivanka Trump<\/a>&nbsp;a \u201cfeckless c**t\u201d for allegedly not confronting her father on his immigration policy, prompting a massive backlash from conservatives and even some members of the mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIvanka Trump, who works at the White House, chose to post the second most oblivious tweet we\u2019ve seen this week,\u201d Bee said. \u201cYou know, Ivanka, that\u2019s a beautiful photo of you and your child, but let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad\u2019s immigration practices you feckless c**t! He listens to you. Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it. Tell him it was an Obama thing and see how it goes, OK?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After significant backlash,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/qz.com\/1299620\/samantha-bees-apology-for-calling-ivanka-trump-a-feckless-c-word-is-perfect\/\">Bee eventually apologized<\/a>&nbsp;for using the word \u201cc**t\u201d as an insult rather than a word she hoped to reclaim.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of people were offended and angry that I used an epithet to describe the president\u2019s daughter and adviser last week. It is a word I have used on the show many times, hoping to reclaim it. But this time I used it as an insult. I crossed the line. I regret it and I do apologize for it,\u201d Bee said. \u201cThe problem is that many women have heard that word at the worst moments of their lives, and a lot of them don\u2019t want that word reclaimed \u2014 they want it gone. And I don\u2019t blame them. I don\u2019t want to inflict more pain on them. I want this show to be challenging and I want it to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
