Colbert, Meyers, and Kimmel take closer looks at yesterday's January 6th hearing

I promised to cover the next and maybe last January 6th Committee hearing today, so I begin with Shocking Twist: Jan 6 Committee Votes To Subpoena The Former President from "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert."

Stephen Colbert just finished watching the tenth live hearing of the January 6 Committee and he recaps all the chilling moments including the surprise ending where the committee issued a subpoena for the former president to testify.
"Trick or Treason! A Boo-d'etat!" That's both scary and funny.

Stephen returned after break with Speaker Pelosi Displayed Superhuman Composure During Jan 6 Attack On The U.S. Capitol.

Stephen's monologue continues with a look at footage of Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Schumer and other leaders as they fought to defend the U.S. Capitol and reassemble Congress to certify President Biden's victory in the 2020 election.
Sure, Stephen, threaten "Hell Toupee" with a good time to get him to comply. It might even work.

"Late Night with Seth Meyers" uploaded their own comedic synopsis, Dramatic Jan. 6 Hearing Issues Trump Subpoena, Hints at Criminal Referrals: A Closer Look.

Seth takes a closer look at the January 6 committee voting to subpoena Trump while also hinting at possible criminal referrals for key figures involved in the coup and revealing new evidence from the Secret Service corroborating key details about the insurrection.
I think "Chicago Southern Lawyer" is a great character for a sketch, but an entire series built around him? Dream on!

Jimmy Kimmel open his show last night with Crazy Series Finale of Jan 6th Hearings, Trump’s Little Subpoena & Biden Wants Your Sperm.

It was another historic day in our nation’s capitol as the January 6th hearings started up again, we learned that Trump knew the election wasn’t stolen and even told Mark Meadows that he didn’t want anyone to know he lost, new video footage showed leaders hiding from rioters during the attack, the bipartisan committee voted unanimously to subpoena Donald Trump, Donny is still at war with the National Archives, it’s getting to the point where Trump will never ever leave us alone, Herschel Walker claimed that his grandmother is Native American but she’s not, President Biden took a break during his trip to LA today to encourage Democrats to get to work making babies, and a new edition of Mean Tweets!
As I've observed before, Kimmel has the most complete video descriptions of all the late-night talk show hosts.

Watching Kimmel's cold open reminded me that Colbert has great cold opens, so I watched Meet The Flynnstones! It lived up to my expectations.



YABBA-DABBA-COUUUUP!

Roger Stone does look like one of Batman's Rogues Gallery, although I think he looks more like Louie the Lilac than Oswald "Penguin" Cobblepot.


Stay tuned for Happy Sweetest Day followed by Wester.
