Stephen Colbert

It was an eventful evening for CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert. First, during his monologue, Colbert praised Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde’s plea to Trump that repeated several left-wing grievances and claimed Vice President JD Vance was upset during the sermon because he could not have sex with the pew. Second, Colbert later welcomed CBS News’s John Dickerson to give a…

CBS’s comedic duo of Stephen Colbert and Taylor Tomlinson repeated the dishonest talking point that Elon Musk did a Nazi salute at a Trump inaugural celebration on their respective Tuesday installments of The Late Show and After Midnight.

When the late night comedy shows took to the air on Monday to lament Donald Trump’s return to the presidency, three main themes emerged. The first was that Trump is going to be a national nightmare. The second was that they have gone all in on embracing former President Joe Biden’s “oligarchy” warnings. Finally, it was deemed ironic that Inauguration Day happened to fall on Martin Luther King…

As Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to the Wednesday edition of The Late Show, where he lobbed a softball her way when he asked, “Could you have been a better cheerleader for the economy?” Also on the subject of Trump’s return, Colbert hailed former First Lady Michelle Obama’s decision to skip the…

From the beginning of June through the end of December, the late night comedy shows welcomed 120 liberal guests and only one conservative, according to a new NewsBusters study.

After a strike-shortened 2023, 2024 was a busy year for the late night comedians. During the last year, the men of late night told a total of 13,676 political jokes, of which 11,226, or 82 percent, were directed at someone or something on the right side of the political aisle, an MRC study has found.

For people 35 and under, Monday was the first time in their lifetime that a Republican presidential election victory was certified by Congress with zero Democratic objections, but in their 2025 debuts, the late night comedians wanted to claim that Monday’s proceedings showed Republicans how the transfer of power is supposed to be done.

Now, it can be told. President Joe Biden wasn’t capable of discharging his duties as Commander in Chief for large swathes of his single-term presidency. New reporting from The Wall Street Journal shared some, but not all, of the shocking details.

Today we present the WORST OF 2024: The Celebrity Freak-Out Award.

Being an election year, 2024 gave the late night comedians an extra incentive to pile on the liberal advocacy. However, there was more to 2024 than just the presidential election, so from the Supreme Court to foreign affairs to the election and everything in-between, here is a David Letterman-style top ten list of the worst moments from the past year from the late night comedy shows.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert delivered his usual round of lackluster one-liners during his news summary on Wednesday night’s episode of The Late Show. After a couple digs at Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) and astronauts stranded in space, the host pivoted to the latest on President-elect Trump and the $15 million settlement in his defamation suit with ABC News; the first time a show on CBS…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert may fancy himself as a comedian, but basic journalistic standards such as accuracy still apply to him and his jokes. However, The Late Show host used his Tuesday show to spread fake news about Defense Secretary-designate Pete Hegseth as Hegseth attempted to defend himself against a media that continues to spread disinformation about his views on women in the…

In his past life, Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth did some things he is not proud of but insists that he is a different man today. Instead of celebrating Hegseth’s transformation, the late night comedians mocked his pledge not to drink on the job on their Wednesday shows and attacked his mom for defending him.

CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel were displeased on their Tuesday shows that some people are still criticizing President Joe Biden for pardoning his son, Hunter. For both men, the re-election of Donald Trump makes such criticisms moot.
