Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT, the #1 show in late night, where he talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology and more. Featuring bandleader Louis Cato and “THE LATE SHOW band,” the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-nominated show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015.
Just to clarify for those who don't know this tad bit of info.
The AR in AR-15 stands for ArmaLite Rifle not Assault Rifle.
ArmaLite is a company that designed and manufactured those style of guns.
Just because it is flat black and looks menacing doesn't mean it is a military weapon or assault rifle. And there are other rifles, that have wood stocks, that fire the exact same caliber bullet as an AR-15...
Having people dictate gun law, despite the 2nd Amendment, who know nothing about guns is dangerous.
And the AR platform rifles are the most popular guns in the US, each year, making up 20% of all firearms sold, and over 50% of all rifles sold. It's a very good all-around design. Reliable, fairly accurate, easy to clean and repair, and not patented (so any manufacturer can make them). For the price of a very budget low quality bolt action rifle, I can build a pretty good AR and have money left over. They've been popular since 1964. They're used in less than 3% of gun crimes. Like my friends and neighbors (most of us are Democrats, btw), I use and rely on my guns regularly... and the ones I use by far the most are the ARs (10 and 15). Trump shooter had an EoTech red dot on a basic AR. It's a good thing he didn't have some other, much more capable rifle.
Yep you can't tell that to war pigs
@@carlh7795imagine if he had a hunting rifle or older ww2 carbine . Why are so many pdw type rifles used in these events , its really sad .
democrats dont know that
@carlh7795 AR's aren't particularly accurate or the overwhelming majority of owners are shit shots. Deer hunting season you will hear who is firing ARs (and they really shouldn't be allowed for deer as they are 22s aka a rabbit gun). Every time they fire there's at least half a dozen shots and you know damn well they're not going after 6 deer. The old saying goes "1 shot 1 deer, 2 shots maybe one deer, 3 shots no deer" to which I add "6 shots, what the fuck is wrong with you".
Bernie is also on Joe’s side
I lost a lot of respect for Nancy Pelosi when she couldn't manage to say "Biden won the primary, he's the candidate until he choses not to be and until then he has my unwavering support"
@@DaDunge She and Shumer are nothing less than "republican-lite". I'm 70 and I remember when ALL Democrats were like Warren and Sanders!
@@DaDunge Me too.
As I understood Elizabeth Warren there, she urged people to vote on the issues, proposed legislation and record of accomplishment rather than to vote for any specific person. Sound advice: cults of personality rarely end well for followers.
@@gregorseidel8203 what is the point of voting on the issues if the only people that can vote are congress. What she said was pointless. When trump is president/king freedom of to choose will be a memory.
Always admired Ms Warren, always lucid and concise.
Except totally ignorant on the subject she is talking about. If this is the subject that is important to her, I think it would be reasonable to expect even basic knowledge on the subject. Not just ride on the emotional wave.
This is going to sound crazy but I almost forgot about Elizabeth Warren 😱 they're constantly giving the most extreme political figures air time and I haven't seen her in a while.
Thank you for having her on!
We Appreciate you 💜🙏🏽🕊️
@@crptnite She make the media work for their ratings Easy with mindless trump
It often strikes me as weird living in Mass when I see these extreme politicians. We seem to somehow be able to avoid that for the most part.
@@Sieil Romney got MASS healthcare, too.
She’s busy working with the Biden admin. to get things done. 🥰
Our media gets too focused on what they think will be the most exciting stories that people doing important work such as Warren end up getting ignored too much. Same thing happened with Biden's many accomplishments as president.
So much misinformation in this video.
I was an early fan before she ever entered the Senate. I've never regretted being a Warren stan!
Notice how the guy who got shot at isn't calling for a ban on AR-15s? It's almost like he has the common sense to know that it wasn't the gun's fault for shooting him.
Stop blaming an object for human fallacy. Nothing intelligent with blaming an object otherwise there are far more dangerous objects. Grow up and take responsibility then make excuses for terrible people.
Even if a right objectively is scary or dangerous to some people doesnt mean it must be controlled. There are already many countries that practice very strict regulations , go there if you dont like certain freedoms. There is a country for everybody , not every nation has to be a britain
“This is the time to show what unity means”…also I love her stats, she knows how to use numbers and REAL facts to make her case. We need more politicians rooted in data and evidence like Elizabeth Warren!! Give this Democratic warrior more airtime!!
"This is a time to show what unity means". Is that weaponizing a tragedy and using it for political gain?
Just like her less than %1 Native American
Real facts? Like the massively and dishonestly skewed gunshot victim stats?
There’s enough comedy out there already
You mean like how she used “high cheekbones” to prove she was Native American? You mean those “FACTS”?? Up until she took a DNA test of course, which resulted in her being less NA than the average American of European descent. LOL You can’t make that shit up!!
Senator Elizabeth Warren is brilliant, called a “Nasty Woman” by Trump because she’s so much more intelligent. 👏🌹
Poor man is very limited in his words
@@cheesy-p1j Pocohantas was one term he recited regularly.
Warren is a fine human being. Trump is a vile creature. 2 very different beings.
Nah she’s vile
She doesn't buy his BS.

What does "Shall Not Be Infringed" mean to you?
Don't test it out.
Yup, the 2nd Amendment is a big warming label on not infringing our Rights.
Know your rights people! Otherwise, you are a boiled frog.
Wow, I admire the way she dodged that question so gracefully 😅

Ban assault weapons?!?!?!…………..didn’t we trade a notorious international arms dealer for a remedial wnba player?!😂😂😂😂😂 please explain to me what the logic is here.
I live in California so we already have these laws
@@katharinewright95620 yep, making it harder for law abiding citizens to protect themselves while making it easier for criminals to get out of jail.
Crime rate high in cali that people and businesses are leaving GJ
@@mahaffer71 maybe where you live not in Dixon CA we are doing fine. So maybe it's the people that were elected by the people of the city to run the city are doing a good job?? Thought about that?
@@katharinewright95620 I have never heard of dixon. It's either in the northeast of California or perfectly between two big cities. population less than 30K with probably 65 percent awhite, 20 percent hispanic, less than 5 percent black. remainder asian, islander, and whatever. Maybe an independent or republican mayor. Maybe a former firefighter or police officer. This is all guessing, but this could explain why it might be a safe place. But to use a small area with a small population thinking it disproves the fact that the California crime rate is high and people and businesses are leaving. Its funny
@@katharinewright95620 So I guess those little pesky gangs like Crips , Bloods & MS-13 are just after school groups right???

Little Freudian slip there Lizzie....Trump cannot win USA..vote Blue! Love from the UK!
Is it common to forever more call a past president as if he was always forevermore called that..?
They're calling him that because he looks like the actual POTUS, biden looks pathetically weak in contrast to President Trump
@@hiltonwatkins6750 it seems sometimes people will say president and some will say former president. I prefer to say former president when they are no longer in office.

I don't understand why the Roe talking point is always abortion. Roe was about privacy and government power. As in privacy to keep the government from watching when our wives, sisters, and daughters get pregnant and not giving the government the power limit our freedoms. There are so many ways this impacts people who will never want or need abortions. Like how they're trying to restrict travel, get government access to medical records, and make your uber driver try to figure out you're not pregnant so it's safe to drive you across state lines or to a hospital.
Why do they not talk about privacy & limited power? Why always talk like it's about getting that one medical procedure? I agree it's important, but the discourse seems very narrow and only playing to their base (on both sides).
Yes! Thank you for pointing this out. It irks me as well, and it makes it that much easier for GOP folks to equate it with things that don't make sense.
Then it shouldn’t have federalised abortion..
It should have never been decided(or even seen) by the SCOTUS. Them making a ruling on it was unconstitutional, and it being reversed was simply correcting the wrong they originally made. Either way it's a states right issue, not a federal issue. And the states that legalized it remain unchanged, and the states that vote against it finally get to have things the way they voted for as it should be.
That's actually a good question.
And the answer is: the constitution did not then and does not now empower the federal government to have *ANY* opinion on the topic. Congress might pass legislation regarding interstate commerce; i.e. ensuring availability of a product such as contraception pills; etc.. Maybe Congress could pass privacy laws on the topic so it is challenging for states to enforce bans.
But the states are where the decision of legal vs. not legal is supposed to happen.
The legal reasoning for Roe V. Wade was so thin as to be functionally nonexistent.
On that alone - regardless of its social significance - it had to go.
Get laws passed.
Do not get 9 unelected men in funny robes to bypass the legislative process.
@jer1014t2th my understanding was a lot of settled privacy law is based on the opinion in Roe. A lot of the laws trying to restrict reproductive care rely on the premise that the government has standing not only to insert itself into women's productive care but to have access to any information they feel is required to inform such intrusions. In short, without Roe there is no privacy.
As "privacy" is not specifically listed in the 14th amendment with life, liberty, or property this makes the dangerous assumption that our rights do not exist unless explicitly stated. The past supreme court understood privacy as a right, so the 14th amendment blocked gov interference in areas where an explicit public interest didn't exist. The gov could invade your privacy with probable cause you committed a crime, but not otherwise. The gov could not keep data on your fertility or who you have sex with.
The first amendment doesn't explicitly state the freedom of association, although it's widely interpreted as ensuring that. With privacy out of the 14th and this textual literalist interpretation of the constitution this should allow the government to track your associations & monitor your private communications. Dropping freedom of association is also useful to them monitoring reproduction...as well as consolidating political power.
Similarly, the constitution doesn't explicitly say states can't make rules about interstate commerce. It says Congress has that power, so justices assumed states did not. This seems uncertain now. Can states band together to blockade others? If we allow a state to block trade in contraceptives can others block guns?
Cancelling Roe required interpreting privacy out of our rights and the government abuses this allows are staggering. I feel the current court chose to ignore this out of political convenience or motivated reasoning. It seems to ignore the foundation of many freedoms.
My Girl!!! She should be president right now - she was absolutely the ONLY logical choice. 😭 🤟🏻
Love her!
Agreed!! she doesn’t just list problems and speak in vague hyperbole. she knows all the pertinent facts, has the solutions, and knows how to get it done. That’s the job of President! Love her!
logic and politics are absolute strangers.
Yes. We wanted her and Bernie as a dynamic duo!!
Remember when everyone else dropped out of the race on Super Tuesday so that Biden could consolidate his support, but Warren stayed in to split the progressive vote? I do.
@goldskygregoractually it’s not a question about if Biden is still fit. The question is if he is more fit than trump. And even if he were in a coma he would still be more fit to lead than trump.
More Elizabeth!! All the good things Biden did were her and Bernie's policies! If Biden continues to be the nominee they need Elizabeth out there all the time.
Not ALL of what Biden did was from Bernie & Elizabeth. BUT I love them both & those 2 are names to listen to!!!
Biden is washed up. He has no chance of winning
@@MsWarriordiva Lol. no.
Except Republicans aren't blaming the gun, so there's that...
Naturally, since only schizophrenic patients blame inanimate objects for anything
Dont be surprised if biden was behind the TRUMP assassination attempt
Fifty years and they never took the time to codify Roe…shameful.
It was secure according to SCOTUS hearings for confirmation. All 6 said it was the secured law of the land and safe.
The states never codified the EPA either. Equal rights for women. Who are 51% of the population, FYI.
@@tamaramccarthy8811 The same goes for the EPA, and Equal rights for women. The hope that they could reverse them in the future. Too bad they didn't have the internet in the seventies. We could have changed all that.
52% of the electorate are women & never a president
There was ample time to actually codify it. Counting on the opinions of justices to never change is foolish. A law (or better, an amendment) about bodily autonomy should have been top priority.
Correction Senator and I don't mean to quibble but . . . it is Disgraced Former President.
Disgraced and convicted felon former president...
Convicted felon works also.
Maybe to you, maybe not to other people. Guess what? WE VOTE
@@gregarioustumours2397 That will be easily overturned, so he wont be a convicted felon. TDS is real
Disgraced soon to be President, you mean.
I see you're finally admitting you were never serious about wanting gun safety legislation
Unfortunately, you also have the people who _don't_ understand, who are voting.
100% behind Joe Biden!

President Elizabeth Warren!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Yak😅😅😅
I wish she was the nominee. She wouldn't win but she is so brilliant and determined and really truly cares. She would be a great president (or SCOTUS justice!!!)
She dodged the question three times which is not reassuring to say the least
Elizabeth Warren would be a candidate who democrats could get excited about voting for.
I agree. She is one of the very best we have in this country.
Agreed, also with what Margaret said. And that's someone from the outside looking in.
Lived in the US for a few years, now (thankfully) back in the Netherlands. Still follow US
politics though and I think Elizabeth Warren is of a next level caliber (would also be on the
international stage) compared to most other politicians the US has on offer right now.
I once dreamt of a Warren/Stewart (Jon) ticket. Unrealistic, I know, but a person can dream.
She ran for president and lost in the primaries pretty handily. Unfortunately.
@@sevenprovinces I literally cried while listening to the Bernie Sanders' speeches that the DNC and corporate media did so well to suppress to sabotage his campaign and force their "anointed one" (Hillary) down our throats, all but guaranteeing Trump the presidency. I swallowed my bile when I voted for Hillary against Trump while dreaming of a Sanders/Warren ticket! I'm 70 and remember the old V-8 juice commercial, thinking "We Coulda' hada' Bernie!" ;-)
@@christinemella2688I really appreciate her, but she's too "boring" in the show business politics that exist in the USA... 😢
Something that defies explanation. Vance and Haley have completely flipped their own moral compass on show recently. Does anyone have an explanation for this?

Power hungry
They never had a moral compass.

You’re no longer allowed to buy a firearm in Massachusetts but at least you can use your EBT card to buy ammunition now.
Do Dems on the Hill really care? Now they are calling for Biden to step aside. How dumb is that. 😢😢
I want Elizabeth Warren! Please! Can we see the poll on Trump Warren?
I love her. She is so smart. I wish we had more politicians talk like real people though. And I also am tired of the lack of representation I. The House and specially the Senate. We need younger people representing us, the majority of the population is not over 65.
Shes 75 bro wtf are you talking about? 🤣
Senator Warren is easily one of, if not the most well spoken representative. Clear, informed, compelling. She'd make an amazing president if she was chosen as the nominee in the past.
I dont hear any republicans saying it was the kids God given 2nd amendment rights this time....strange
Funny how that works out...
Real talk
This is disingenuous.
@@Omni0404 I disagree she is a breath of fresh air
I see what you did there. Tamir Rice is a man, Thomas Matthew Crooks was a kid... even tho his name is Crooks 😂
Well, the Democratic party is making us nervous af!
Why? Is it because they want you disarmed whilst maintaining a massive monopoly on lethal force that they by their own account energetically misuse?
👀 but AR-10s will be cool, right?
Why give them ideas?
Never heard her spin and dodge a direct question before. Shame for not backing Biden and giving that BS answer
She'll stand behind Joe on the election. Don't mistake opinions for not being supportive. I listened and she praised him.
ok you heard that too?? nobody else really mentioned it from what i saw in the comments up to now, im not crazy, you heard it too?
She did back Joe Biden. She said Biden is our candidate. She was fending off Colbert's question, because it's goddamn time to stop asking it. And he should know that! It's HIM I'm disappointed in, not her.
Dodged the question entirely and deflected
"Whoever the candidate is" .... really Colbert? REALLY? Et tu Brute?
woman made it further glad to see her rise
It depends on the voters, not on a single person. Americans just should be able to present policies and also understand them.
Every American citizen has the right to propose bills to Congress.
This used to be a comedy show, if you want to see comedy kill Tony is the place, watching this TH-cam channel is the same thing as watching Congress talk.
One thing you definitely won’t have is safety if you even try. And rightly so.
You vote for the democratic candidate no matter who that is.
Always believe the exact opposite of what Liawatha has to say.
Imagine being Elizabeth Warren, having sulci and gyri with a topography so flat you could roll a marble across it without a single deviation of its path. It's honestly impressive in it's own way.
Amen!!!
SOooo glad I live in Canada!!!

We are PROUD to have Liz Warren representing us in the great state of Massachusetts! Go Liz!
So are you paid for every disingenuous post or is it a salaried position?
And we're proud to not live under that talking head who wants in infringe on rights. Keep her in Mass. She belongs there. Keep your BS in your state.
"We need to unify as a country... by agreeing to my position." The establishment doesn't even realize how disconnected they are.
yeah , no...
But... The democrats bickering about candidates at this stage is not a vote winner. Get behind Joe or get someone else fast. The media reporting about Joe past couple weeks was horrendous.
Last 3 plus years have been disgraceful pertaining to the mainstream media. Colbert's ageism jokes are also disgraceful.
The senile man pulled out.
Amazing orator

Come together? No, my dear lady. Come take it.
1:00 what a weird pitch for "coming together". Come together on something that doesn't infringe on our rights. Do something about the drug problem in the US, reducing the national debt, stopping our involvement in endless international wars or something like that?

“It’s Time To Get Serious About Gun Safety” seriously? in the US? How many thousand times have you guys said that already?

They've always been serious, the issue is that the 2nd Amendment makes it clear that the government doesn't have the authority to make the laws that the blue states have been making, and a whole lot of the statistics around gun deaths are lies.

Trump often quoted Hitler and has taken steps to become an authoritarian dictator. Hitler went to jail too. Before his fascist Nazi regime.
How's that working for you in the U.K? truly useless
It's common to call former presidents by their previous title -- for example, one often hears "President Lincoln" or "President Eisenhower" and rarely "Mr. Lincoln" or "Mr. Eisenhower" -- but it does leave a foul taste when applied to someone like Donald Trump who actively undermined US democracy. That said, I have to admire Senator Warren for being consistently polite even to her political adversaries.
@user-zh1dx5dl2b You really have to ask? By claiming, against all evidence, that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, by pressuring Mike Pence to stop the certification of the results, by encouraging people to march to the Capitol to prevent the peaceful transition of power on January 6th 2021, etc. One of the primary characteristics of a democracy is the peaceful transition of power, and Trump did everything he could to undermine that process. Another pillar of modern democracies is a balance of power between the legislative, executive, and judicial branch, which the Republican party undermined even before Trump by selecting partisan judges and officials, a process that was accelerated under Trump. Not to mention gerrymandering and other efforts at voter suppression, where blame can admittedly be more widely attributed.
@user-zh1dx5dl2b Bot account? To list a few ways in which he undermined democracy anyway: he encouraged people to storm the capitol on January 6th, claimed the election was stolen without evidence, he pressured Mike Pence not to certify electors, and so on. The peaceful transition of power is an essential hallmark of any democracy, and clearly Trump wasn't willing to allow that. Fortunately, even given gerrymandering and other voter suppression methods employed, at the time the US was still strong enough to withstand his authoritarian tendencies. Next time, it may not be so lucky.

Hands and feet cause more harms than AR15’s every yr. Check the FBI data. Whats more do you really want the government to have a monopoly on violence? Are you Dems the ones screaming about overly militarized and out of control police forces?
So America withdraws from Afghanistan, leaving $7 Billion in weapons behind for the taliban. Has sent over $100 Billion in aid for war efforts in Ukraine, where civilians were being trained to use automatics last second to fight russia. Has the border wide open allowing terrorist, cartel and drugs to come to America, where fatal overdoses are almost triple the amount of firearm deaths. Supports Israel bombing Gaza in response to UNARMED civilians getting departed by hamas. Supports Taiwan, were civilians are currently training with ARs for a Chinese invasion. And wants to ban the AR15 to its American citizens? Make it make sense…
How about if you want unity, you stop trying to take our Constitutional rights? Also, stop claiming you are Native American!
Like it was before Trump arrive
Amen!
