Russia Defaults On Debt, Soldiers Steal Chernobyl Souvenirs | Don Jr.'s Texts Reveal Coup Plan

Russia's default on its foreign debt is evidence that global sanctions are squeezing the country's economy, and texts between the former president's son and his Chief of Staff Mark Meadows reveal details of a pre-election plot to subvert the will of American voters. #Colbert #Comedy #Monologue

So how's that voting democrat working out for you. I worked 40 years and retired and was barely making it now I'm broke. My credit cards are maxed out and I fear for a roof over my head. I would like to thank you and every other democratic voter for putting me in this situation. I could have worked at McDonald's my entire life. And be better off than I am right now. And it's all thanks to the feeble. Weak minded democrat voter that cannot see through the Lies that the Democrats are ruining the country with. So why don't you tell me and everyone else Reading on the site why you voted democrat? And then explain how it's working out. I'll tell you how it's working out. Donald trump was right about everything and the democrats have been one hundred percent wrong about everything as usual. A certain feeble minded weak people can't see through it and are easily guided. These are the same people that sign up for all the extra c*** at the car dealership. Because they can't tell that they're being taken to the cleaners. So we are all on the edge of our seats. Waiting for your reply again, explain to us the fantastic job the democrats are doing and exactly why you're going to vote for them In 2024

Stephen Colbert is by far the best Late Night Talk Show Host. The way he seamlessly blends humour and social commentary is educational and funny at the same time. He does not belittle intelligence, he embraces it. Nor does he "dumb down" his material for his audience.

[@Living_Life242]

I recall a story of some researchers who went to Chernobyl for studies. They had their Geiger counters, tools samples and left as it was nearing the end of the “safe” amount of time to be there. But, to their consternation, even as they left the area, their counters continued to tick away. The problem was that they had stayed so long that their vehicles had absorbed some of the radiation (though it would wear off). Not only have those soldiers likely inhaled or absorbed radioactive particles through their skin as they dug those trenches and slept on the disturbed soil, their large metal tanks have absorbed some of that radiation, radioactive dust has coated their equipment and is in need of a thorough decontamination that I’m not sure their leaders will care about. And honestly, I wouldn’t put it past Russian leaders to take those soldiers and put them with other groups who will watch as the radiation poisoning takes its toll on them. Imagine going to war and watching as the new guy begins wasting away, vomiting and his hair falling out. Even if there’s no real danger to the other soldiers, morale is gonna take yet another hit as the very land places a devil’s curse upon them.

[@mgebi1]

Isn't it nice to laugh and have so much despair turned to laughter. I love that he doesn't mention the crazy mans name. He gives us such a break from all the BS. Thanks to Stephen for giving us relief at the end of some long tough day's. I am greatful for his entertaining words. 👍☮️✌️😁🕊️

[@sassysarina9718]

Me too...🙂

[@anneheimburger3186]

Yes

[@sunnydaze2359]

He is a treasure. He actually kept me sane during the pandemic when he was doing his monologues from home . I was almost sorry when he had to go back to having an audience.

[@mgebi1]

@@sunnydaze2359 I agree!!! 😷🥴😁. How much of a healer, helper, laughter is. And he's damn good at it. I've grown to like Jimmy Kimmel more over the pandemic as well. They somehow bring laughter through the tragedy that surrounds us. Being able to laugh in today's world is a gift. 🤣🤣😜
