Sarah Palin was duped by Sacha Baron Cohen for his new series

Sacha Baron Cohen Gets Politicians to Cite Cardi B, Blink-182 as Reasons to Arm Kids

The first episode of his new show “Who Is America?” promotes the fake “Kinderguardians” training program


Sacha Baron Cohen’s new Showtime series “Who Is America?” begins airing tonight. Across seven episodes, Cohen plays an array of characters who interview “the diverse individuals who populate our unique nation.” Ahead of its premiere, the show shared a new clip featuring politicians and other prominent figures endorsing a gun training program for children as young as four years old.

During one interview, Larry Pratt, Executive Director Emeritus of Gun Owners of America, reads a script detailing why such a program would succeed, and he unwittingly uses the names of several musicians as scientific evidence. “Children under five also have elevated levels of the pheromone Blink-182, produced by the part of the liver known as the Rita Ora,” Pratt says. “This allows nerve reflexes to travel along the Cardi B neural pathway to the Wiz Khalifa 40% faster, saving time and saving lives.” Watch the clip below beginning at the 9:40 mark.

“Who Is America?” marks Cohen’s first television project in over a decade. It airs tonight on Showtime at 10 p.m. EST.

Former Maricopa County SheriffJoe Arpaio says he was “pissed” after being duped by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, who he claims posed as a Trump-loving Finnish comedian and invited him to an interview.

Arpaio aired his frustrations in a Breitbart report published Thursday, alleging he traveled to Los Angeles to meet with Baron Cohen in October 2017, sensing something was off when arrived at the interview location, which was a warehouse.

Arpaio also said he thought it was strange that no one offered to powder his face.

His suspicions we apparently confirmed when the line of questioning began, the comedian making a series of sexual references using the terms “hand job,” “blowjob” and “golden shower,” according to Arpaio, who called the words “hard for me to hear.”

The ex-sheriff, who is now campaigning for Arizona’s U.S. Senate seat, said he thought the interview was being broadcast live for an audience of millions, telling Breitbart that even then, he didn’t leave.

“I felt uncomfortable with some of the words they were using but I had to live through it,” he said. “I am not the type of guy who gets up and walks out. I never walked out in thousands of interviews. I just take it.”

But Arpaio’s not the only one.

Conservative radio host Austin Rhodes told The Hollywood Reporterhe was also tricked, having accepted an interview with a man calling himself Dr. Nira Cain, a gender and women’s studies professor from Portland, Oregon. Rhodes then says he realized it was Baron Cohen.

Last Tuesday, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin took to Facebook to vent her anger that she, too, was fooled by the comedian, who she claims interviewed her under the guise of a disabled army veteran.

The antics are part of Baron Cohen’s Showtime series, “Who Is America?,” which begins Sunday.
