Samantha Bee Blasts Former NY AG Schneiderman Following Abuse Allegations: ‘F*ck You!’

When Eric Schneiderman gave an interview to Samantha Bee several months ago, he was lauded as a “hero” and a champion for the #MeToo movement. Now, in light of the allegations of physical abuse made against ex-New York attorney general, the Full Frontal host is tearing him apart.

Bee began her show last night with a blistering monologue, slamming Schneiderman over his alleged abuse of multiple women.

“Now, Schneiderman was a guest on my show, so this is a little complicated for me to talk about. Just kidding, it’s not complicated: Fuck you, Eric Schneiderman,” Bee said. “The good legal work that you did does not absolve you. It will not give me not one second’s pause to tear you a new asshole on live television. I give zero fucks.”

Bee continued to blast Schneiderman as “trash,” and she eventually launched into a takedown of Harvey Weinstein, Charlie Rose, Matt Lauer and several of the other high-profile individuals who fell from grace for their sexual misbehavior.

Also, one final note: if you have trouble finding Bee’s glowing Schneiderman interview on YouTube, that’s because it’s been relabeled “Former AG Tricks Sam Into Thinking He Was Decent.”
