Stephen Colbert, The Late Show

The actor is the latest celebrity to weigh in on CBS’ surprise cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
Stephen Colbert offered his corporate bosses a simple math lesson after President Donald Trump claimed the company would pay up millions more than had been initially reported as part of a widely criticized settlement.
The Late Show' host Stephen Colbert said President Donald Trump's attacks on Barack Obama were distracting from his handling of the Epstein files.
Trump has responded to the backlash by repeatedly calling the Epstein files a "hoax," claiming nonsensically that they were "made up" by Barack Obama and other Democratic figures. He bashed his supporters who still care about the "bullshit" case. The president has also attempted to distract citizens, as Colbert pointed out in his monologue.
“Elon knew it! He knew it! I always said. I always said that he’s a good guy who’s right about everything,” Colbert said with obvious sarcasm. “I mean, everything. It is a great idea to name a baby 420 Kleep-Klorp 69.” “And this is obviously the most beautiful shape for a car,” Colbert added as a photo of a Tesla Cybertruck appeared on screen.

Colbert called it an “insane thing” to put on social media. “If you or I put up an AI video depicting the violent arrest of a former president, we would get a free ride in a windowless van to FBI headquarters, where they would put us to work redacting Trump’s name from the Epstein file,” Colbert said. And that may not even be the worst of it.
