Here is the entire Colbert Questionnaire. Unedited: youtu.be/iRvWlAGx7EM

Ken Harbaugh: This isn't restitution for Jan 6 — it's funding a private militia for the next election. Trump's ready. @krisgoldsmith85.bsky.social substack.com/profile/2774... Follow The Ken Harbaugh Show here: linktr.ee/thekenharbau...

"On the present trajectory, Iran will emerge from the conflict many times stronger and more influential than it was before the war. It will exercise leverage with dozens of the richest nations in the world." From Robert Kagan, @theatlantic.com www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

You know, if I were taking lots of bribes, laundering money, and cheating on my taxes, I probably wouldn’t want the IRS to be able to audit me either.

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

I begin every day by reading Lawfare in these troubled times when the Constitution and Rule of Law are under vicious attack by our own Government. So, I am honored to continue supporting Lawfare, as anyone concerned for the Rule of Law would be.

When the world stops financially supporting Israel's criminality it will stop, and/or their country will disappear. It's past time. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/5/...

And it’s telling that all of them, without exception, have invested millions in fortresses, bunkers and private armies to protect themselves from the public. We’ve all seen and read about conventional coups. In a society driven by reckless capitalism, this is what it looks like.

Musk’s net worth has almost tripled. Trump’s has more than doubled. Bezos, Zuck, Thiel & others are all exponentially growing their billions via federal contracts, tax breaks and rampant deregulation, while laying off thousands. This is the real crime all their other crimes are meant to hide.

What some fail to grasp is that billionaires went from lobbying for their industries to bribing Trump directly for their wish lists. Every billionaire alongside Trump is telling you that rules, regulations & laws don’t apply to them anymore. If you happen to get crushed by their greed, so be it.

HAHAHAHA. Fools rush in. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

MeidasTouch: Trump made 3,700 stock trades in the first quarter of this year. What do you make of this? Tuberville: I do the same thing. That’s how this country runs. I get sick and tired of hearing Republicans and Democrats say we need to stop all this trading.

Not gonna happen wit @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social or @schumer.senate.gov in leadership. They're both traditional, polite cowards with no balls. Bring back Pelosi. Bring back courage. Find us leaders, b/c those two suck.

Voting to approve lifetime judicial appointments for election deniers doesn't help. bsky.app/profile/patr...

I will simplify it for you. Your shit is too expensive. Period. At some point, when young women go to work, have to pay rent, and Mom is no longer buying their clothes, they realize what a ripoff these name brands are. www.ksl.com/article/5149...

Republicans were against forgiving student loans for nurses and teachers but they are fine with Trump giving your money to child molesters.

Oooh, bitch-slapped again, eh Musk? Couldn't happen to a more deserving jerk. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

JD Vance remains busy with name-calling, but the Trump Administration's economic failures are there for all to see.

Next month, we’ll see utility bills jump here in NC. Duke Energy is threatening to jack up their rates and Michael Whatley — who spent years lobbying for Duke Energy — hasn’t said a word. Ratepayers should NOT have to shoulder the cost of volatile fuel markets and industrial demands.

“Trump initially said that his handpicked contractor would charge $1.8 million[…] But federal records showed that the actual cost was ‘more than seven times that’.” https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/price-tag-on-reflecting-pool-repairs-jumps-way-above-trumps-promised-budget/

"Democratic governors and state legislators need to realize that this is no longer about fairness; it’s about fighting back so that they are not engineered out of the House forever. And I get that Dems don’t have the stomach for this kind of warfare--- find it."

It’s no secret that truckers and drivers are paying more due to the war in Iran. This administration is making it hard for people to keep it all afloat. https://ncnewsline.com/2026/05/07/north-carolina-truckers-drivers-feel-pain-of-iran-war-gas-hikes/

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

MacFarlane: People in Virginia voted by the millions. Their voices were heard and now have been silenced. And you want to talk about what starts a political wave in a year like this: a mass of people who think their voices have been silenced. That doesn't stop a wave that fuels one.
