NBC’s Seth Meyers claimed on Wednesday’s episode of Late Night that President Trump’s Tuesday address to Congress bored him, but despite that, he claimed that it was “deeply offensive” for Trump to refer to Massachusetts Senator and fake Native American Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.” Speaking of Massachusetts, Meyers would later welcome Gov.

Al Green for getting kicked out of the House chamber and attacking Trump on everything from transgender issues to shipbuilding. Later, he would welcome former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to wonder, “…

After the vote to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas failed, host of CBS’s The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, and NBC’s Late Night host, Seth Meyers, took the time on Wednesday to celebrate and hail the “heroic return” and “dramatic” return of Democratic Rep. Al Green from the hospital that doomed the vote.
