Early-Access: Demonetized video
Hi patrons, this video 'Jon Stewart Shreds Tucker & JD Vance Over Ohio Train Derailment' was demonetized for who knows why, so while I appeal it and await a response here it is for your viewing pleasure.

Hey patrons, both new and old, just want to thank you all for supporting me.
Today's video was immediately demonetized so I decided to just turn off ads on the video and not even try to fight it. Your ongoing support gives me the freedom to cover stories like this where I take the hit on ad revenue, so thank you again.
