Colbert speaks truth to power here. Zohran’s reign of terror must end. When he says Israel must uphold international law, he is literally doing a pogrom at me. 🙄

I liked the Colbert Report… 😢

    IMO it was when he took the job at The Late Show. He fully became part of the establishment media at that point. Wasn’t allowed to be as “edgy” any more. I guess whatever morals or values he had were malleable at best.

      Let’s not kid ourselves, it was over the course of the success of the Colbert Report, especially under Obama, where he oriented more and more toward flattering the Democratic establishment and cultivating celebrity connections. The Late Show is just the completed metamorphosis.
