Stephen Colbert reacts live to the Jan. 6 hearing: Ivanka “finally screwed” Trump
by pushing back on the Republican predictions that the night would be “nothingburger.”
“Do you understand what that means?” he asked. “Fox News is willing to lose money to keep their viewers from flipping over and accidentally learning information.” But the host said he wasn’t “surprised” because “that’s the first rule of any cult: never leave the compound.” The second rule? “Present your testicles to the tanning station.”
From there, Colbert moved on to express how “shocked” he is that Rep. Liz Cheney has become the “hero” of this story and shared one of the most damning clips from the hearing of Ivanka Trump admitting that her father lost the 2020 election. The jokes somehow only got more brutal from there, with Colbert explaining “how we got here” by saying, “It’s kind of complicated, but it all started at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2011, when a Black president made fun of a man with a very big ego and a very small penis.”
