CNN’s dwindling audience rang in the New Year with a rare bit of truth on the ratings-challenged cable television network when comedienne Whitney Cummings ridiculed Kamala Harris and the Democrats live and on-air from Times Square.
The network stuck to tradition with its regular programming featuring middle-aged homosexuals Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen who yukked it up while throwing down tequila shots from the celebration in the heart of New York City, and they were having a jolly time until Cummings went rogue.
With just under two hours until the ball dropped, Cummings slayed the two men with a wicked jab about how Democrats tried to cram Harris down the throats of Americans and worked in a shot at vaccine manufacturer Pfizer that had to have CNN producers screaming at their monitors.
She’s surprised CNN didn’t cut her mic after taking a swing at Dems and the COVID vax:
“[Dems] couldn’t hold a primary because they were too busy holding a body upright. Are we still rolling? Am I off? … Kamala was forced on us so hard you’d think she was patented by Pfizer” pic.twitter.com/YHdOzIgtw5— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) January 1, 2025
“The 2024 election fried our brains, the Democrats couldn’t hold a primary because they were too busy holding a body upright,” she joked. “Are we still rolling? Are we off?” Cummings then asked.
“Go for it,” Cohen encouraged her.
“It was amazing that the pro-choice party didn’t give their voters one when it came to the presidential candidate,” Cummings continued. “Kamala was forced on us so hard you’d think she was patented by Pfizer, or Moderna, whichever one’s – oh God, Andy just gave me a very scary look…”
The look on Cooper’s face was priceless.
Cummings also slipped in a joke about presidential son Hunter Biden, a recently pardoned ex-crackhead with a taste for documenting his sexual exploits with hookers on video.
She even brought up the Hunter Biden laptop at one point
“The Dallas Cowboys cheerleader doc showed the girls being treated horribly underpaid and crying. I thought I’d open a video on Hunter Biden’s laptop.”

And she didn’t stop there, telling viewers that the media is lying about the country being divided and the government isn’t being truthful about the mysterious drones over New Jersey.

“I’m now playing like 3,000 seat theaters, which is about the viewership of CNN these days,” Cummings also joked, getting in a dig at the self-proclaimed “most trusted name in news” and its shrinking viewership.
LMAO! Comedian Whitney Cummings is absolutely ROASTING Kamala Harris and CNN… while on CNN
“Kamala was forced on us so hard you’d think she was patented by Pfizer!”
“I’m now playing like 3,000 seat theaters, which is about the viewership of CNN these days.”

X users reacted to the New Year’s Eve treat unexpectedly served up by Cummings.
No doubt CNN execs just got a nasty call from the DNC and Pfizer immediately after that.

Good for Whitney! We’ll probably never see her again but it’s refreshing to hear someone say that on CNN!

Only thing better than her jokes was the look on Andersons face! Happy new year MAGA!! ❤️
