The Daily Show and Colbert's Late Show joke about Biden's Peloton and other 1st-day 'scandals'
When President Biden moved into the White House on Wednesday, he probably left his Peloton exercise bike in Wilmington. With its cameras, microphones, and internet connection, "the last thing the CIA wants is the Russians and the Chinese peering or listening into the White House gymnasium," The New York Times notes. The exercise bikes also cost "upward of $2,500 apiece," the Times added, so it "does not exactly comport with Mr. Biden's 'regular guy from Scranton' political persona."
Stephen Colbert made fun of the Peloton security fears on Thursday's Late Show.
