The lies about voting, immigrants, trans rights, election interference, ad infinitum, are a lot easier to tell. If people did their own research, this couldn't happen. But inflation? That's something people "research" by the simple act of filling their tank or buying groceries (or anything, tbh).

Maybe it's just me, but when I see a typo, I look to see how close the letter is on the keyboard. "R" and "L" aren't close. Somebody's autocorrect knows they use the word "erection" a lot.

He's right about one thing... the world IS watching, but that's not what they see. You will live with this stain for the rest of your lives. Your descendants will be ashamed. You will be remembered as Nazis.

Just release the Epstein files already, ffs.

Today's fill-up prices.

This is a truly preposterous assertion. SpaceX is perhaps one of the worst examples of ‘free market’ enterprise in modern times, as are all of Musk’s ventures. It only exists because of gargantuan subsidies from the US government, even despite continually missed deadlines and rampant fraud.

He has never understood the office he holds. Thinking of all the vets out there, and special thought to my great uncle who fought in the Pacific Theater WWII. He suffered "shell shock," then alcoholism as he tried to cope. Wish I had been old enough to understand. We owe vets more. #NoMoreWar

Happy Memorial Day aaregistry.org/story/the-fi...

Just a travesty. We are no longer protected from disease, and our food supply has suffered without regulatory oversight. It's now normal to buy chicken, then wait a week to eat it just to be sure it doesn't present illness & hasn't been recalled. We are not safe on many levels.

An excerpt from an NPR interview with Stephen Colbert, in which Colbert describes why he loves Elvis Costello's "Jump Up," performed tonight on the last Late Show.

Dear Stephen Colbert, You may be no fan of dictionaries or reference books, but we're fans of yours. ❤️ -The Wordinistas at Merriam-Webster

I've seen this movie before. This is where you offer the official a glass of the "drinking water" and they decline. Say NO to data centers.

Thank you @colbertlateshow.bsky.social . Goodbye, CBS. I will not be viewing anything on the network after tonight's show.

I asked Xavier Becerra about the Chevron donation and I got honest answers. But before you watch, everyone needs to understand one thing… For every $1 Democrats raise, Republicans are pulling in $5. That’s what our candidates are up against in these races. 1/2

I am so grateful for the Late Show crew. The band has shown up every night smiling, everyone giving their best performances, incredible attitudes and quality. This show had a huge impact in my life for the past decade. Thank you for keeping me sane through laughter. You're my community.

An extra benefit to canceling CBS after Colbert's last show... I get my cable through Comcast. I get to cancel CBS, Paramount/Showtime (comes in package so can't cancel individually), the NFL, and Comcast in one easy action.

A better reality show would have him negotiate life on a mid-range salary. Do your own shopping and child care. Make the numbers make sense. Government is not reality TV.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

The U.S. has spent billions to lose a war that enriches its oligarchs, impoverishes the citizenry, sabotages its alliances, and strengthens its enemies. Empires have risen and failed before, but to my knowledge no state has ever chosen to kill its own power. snyder.substack.com/p/on-superpo...

Can someone please tell him "mutilization" is not a word?

What a fucking waste of resources.

Priorities. Had enough yet?

When Trump pulled out of the international nuclear agreement with Tehran in 2018, Iran lacked even a single bomb's worth of uranium. Since then, it accumulated 22,000 pounds of enriched uranium. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I've seen the way Kash Patel chugs a beer. 100% certain he knows what it means to "86" someone.

I don't know whether it was staged or not. I DO know he & his regime are a disgrace to this country & will live in infamy long after they all face charges, are convicted & imprisoned. History is written by dispassionate scholars baed on facts, not MAGA cult-members completely divorced from reality.

Naval Post Graduate School is in Monterey. The Sec of the Navy should know this. Lover's Point is in Pacific Grove, a place founded as a Methodist summer church retreat, complete with Blue Laws. This land was taken from the Ohlone people who had lived in the area since the 6th century. #AskALocal

"Sentient truck nutz," indeed. The only explanation for believing this BS. Thank you @muellershewrote.com and @tenth-muse.com for adding this to my vocabulary.

Voter ID? How about Donor ID? Nobody can spend a dime influencing our politics, be it elections or governing unless they are human beings & American citizens.

This needs to happen. Truth.

Defies logic to make such a stupid statement. Wild.

Congratulations, Hungary!!!!

If Hungary needs money, go ask Russia. Orban has plundered Hungarian money for his own gain, just like Trump.

You know Iran is a huge fuck-up when they wheel out Melania to talk about the Epstein Files. Almost like they forgot they could simply release them.

Translation: "Open your wallets, kids!"

I thought he didn't like drunks. Yet here we are with Pirro and Hegseth.

So how many copies y'all think Elon is going to buy to make sure Miss Maye gets on every bestseller list?

he signed an Elvis guitar? Narcissist in Chief.

There’s one thing stupider than spending 1.5 trillion to lose a war to a middle power in the Middle East, and that is spending 1.7 trillion to do so.

In Trump's bible, when the leper asks Jesus for healing, Jesus tells the man to get a job, before returning to his food wagon to sell his Christ-branded fish and bread to the multitudes.

Imagine that everything he promised his base turning out to be a lie. Shocking. Just shocking.

Damn. Here I was thinking it would help buy my 351st house.

Yes, take out Maduro, risking lives, killing people, & spending our tax $, then replacing his regime WITH THE VERY SAME ONE!!! The only thing you did is kidnap someone, kill, & endanger troops. You left the same regime in place (see: Taliban). And you're doing this in OUR names. We do not consent.

Send Rubio out. He just needs to stay off the topic of drapes and we're golden!
