TL;DR
Former Senator Al Franken is returning to late-night comedy as a guest host for a week on "The Daily Show" following Trevor Noah's departure. Franken, who was a writer and cast member for "Saturday Night Live," acknowledged that this is a potentially news-filled week, particularly in light of former President Trump's call for protests over his possible indictment and arrest. Franken refused to speculate about a return to politics and said he has no plans to run for office again.
