I listened to / watched as much of the hearing as possible today. I had an appointment an hour away from home, so I listened in the car on NPR. The republicans, and especially Janky Jim Jordan made utter fools of themselves ! The democrats, on the other hand had serious questions, on point with the matter at hand.. and the witnesses handled themselves professionally and above reproach. This is history .. no matter your political party affiliation .. the proceedings will be rebroadcast so all who were working or otherwise engaged can witness the entire hearing .. I urge EVERY American to listen .. closely.. and with open minds ... We as citizens have as much responsibility for this outcome as those in congress. It is the duty of EVERY citizen to protect and defend the constitution... the benefits of which we do enjoy every day.

I was waiting for Stephen and co.'s reactions.
Let’s be honest, many of us are standing by, very much ready to fight and die if we must, to protect our nation. We have a divided government and a divided people. If this particular impeachment goes wrong, and Trump stirs the shit, we will rise and put down whoever stands in the way of a free America. We will drag him from the Whitehouse ourselves if we must.
Agreed! Too bad not every member of Congress holds this sentiment.
@Deborah Hennessey We should all obey the law as long as there is law. But if there is no law there is no law for anyone.
Republicans: "This is hearsay!"
Everyone: "So let those directly involved testify!"
Republicans and the White House: "Nah..."
Oh you know that if it was hearsay in their favour they would support it 100%.
This isn't about America anymore. This is about one party vs. another and it's really sad that Republicans made it so.
@libra8a but the Russian investigation did discover that trump and his campaign knew that Russia was attempting to interfere in the election and did nothing to stop them as they believed it would work to their advantage. Also whilst there may have been no full blown collusion (Due to people around trump stopping him from colluding) the investigation also showed that trump did everything he could to obstruct the investigation. Clearly you need to do some research as well. And just incase you decide to have a go at me calling me a democrat or whatever the favourite buzz word is right now. I have no political affiliation within my own country never mind the shit show that America seems to be these days
@libra8a A lot of people are in prison or indicted for this "nothing" you speak of.
@libra8a The Republicans did the party seperation soon after Obama was elected, and then spent the rest of his time in office interfering, undermining, and fighting every step of the way on everything he tried to accomplish. Do some research and get your facts straight. You're probably one of those "1950's party-switch, southern strategy" deniers, as well.
@libra8a I applaud you for watching a piece of information that doesn't agree with you, now of you could only look at it objectively instead of deciding all the information is wrong before you even know it.

Wise words... but what are we to do with an orange man-baby who is afraid of the truth?
My big fear is he'll get away with it.To me its just astounding what's gone on the last 3 year's.

Friday's gonna be another good one, I'm looking forward to hearing from Ambassador Yovanovitch. She got fucked by Trump but didn't even get a $130,000 hush payment!
I'll see ya Friday night, right here in the Colbert comment section! ✌️
Watching Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan's disgraceful performance at the hearing made me want to vomit.
And was it just me, or did anyone else feel sick when Jim Jordan talked? I wondered how many students would not have been “exposed” to sexual assault if he would have spoken up to the authorities when he was first told about the doctor’s misconduct, rather than totally dismissing the earlier report. How is this man still in Congress?
I loved watching Peter Welch own his ass!
Laughable

@@Kneecap007 And that asshole was laughing the whole time, so infuriating.
We don’t need to call it quid pro quo we can just call it political extortion
That's true, but the sad fact is
Joe Biden did the same thing.
Big John not same.
@@bigjohn6846 No, he absolutely did not. Biden had congressional approval, trumputin acted unilaterally, defying the constitution's separation of powers.
...or soliciting a bribe
How has Trump lived this long without accidentally strangling himself while trying to tie his shoes? This is fascinatingly idiotic. All of it.
Velcro shoes
Only thing that can kill trump is bone spurs.
His daddy set him up with minders to keep him out of total ruin. He was never equipped with the skills necessary to succeed as an honest man, and was kept away from catastrophic failure his entire life. He's just a volatile mixture of flaws.
@@OzvenomDnD To go with his mismatched outfits.
He's always had enough money to outwait or outspend anyone at the table. That's why he's never had to deal with consequences. Michael Cohen wasn't lying.
Where's Mayor Mccheese? I haven't seen or heard from him since his two friends were arrested by the FBI.
Hahahaha, maybe will hear another butt dial. Hahahaha 😂😂😂
Scoping out property in Moscow
I was just thinking about that slimy loser. I have a feeling he was told to shut up and lay low (because he kept going on every talk segment and dropping bombs).
He got lawyers who told him to clam up
In his bunker furiously deleting phone texts and emails
This senate would have acquitted Nixon even if he had blown up the democrats HQ in the Watergate building with everybody in it.
I kind of gave up on these people having a moral line that would make them think twice when Trump's lawyers argued, in court, that Trump could ACTUALLY shoot somebody on 5th Avenue and not be arrested... and not a single Republican voiced concern.
I get the humor! There have been 3 impeachment inquiries and one unsuccessful impeachment hearing since I was in my 20’s. I hate to say it but I’m getting used to it.
Excellent monologue, writing and graphics . I’m a huge fan , Stephen makes life bare able in a world gone Crazy !!

"Would you, could you find dirt on Joe? Would you, could you quid pro quo?"
I wonder if you hadn’t written it there, would Trump have even recognized this as Dr. Seuss.
The only sad apart about this ordeal ending is that there will no longer be “Don and the Giant Impeach” to entertain me. I love Stephen’s humor and impersonations
Colbert impersonations of Trump, or Trump in prison. So hard to choose...
I wonder if he will ever bring back the original Cartoon Donald Trump, but probably not since it's still airing on Showtime.
Royce Sato sadly there may be more the geriatric Ken doll (Pence) jokes.
Hopefully there will also no longer be a Don.

kimberly s right

I'd give anything to see Trump testify!
allmotorhash Are you referring to the idiot in the whitehouse?
The Founders understanding of bribery was derived from English law, under which bribery was understood as an officeholder’s abuse of the power of an office to obtain a private benefit rather than for the public interest. This definition not only encompasses Traitor Trump’s conduct-it practically defines it.
The Ukraine scandal began in the spring of 2019, with a series of contacts between Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy, and Ukrainian officials. In mid-July, Trump decided to withhold nearly $400 million in aid to Ukraine that had already been appropriated by Congress. The White House offered no explanation, except to blame “interagency delay.” A week later, Trump spoke by phone to the recently elected Ukrainian president, Zelensky. The memorandum released by the White House describing that call-which is consistent with the accounts of the whistleblower complaint that first brought this scandal to light-reads like a classic shakedown.
According to the memo, after exchanges of flattery, Trump states that “we do a lot for Ukraine” and that “we spend a lot of effort and a lot of time,” before he complains that the relationship is not always “reciprocal.” Zelensky then raises the question of military aid to Ukraine, to which Trump immediately responds, “I would like you to do us a favor though,” and proceeds to ask Zelensky to investigate two unfounded conspiracy theories: one involving the server containing emails stolen from the DNC during the 2016 election, and the other involving the thoroughly debunked claim about then-VP Biden, his potential reelection opponent. Trump asks Zelensky to work with Giuliani and AG Barr to investigate his potential opponent and so aid his own reelection campaign. There can be no misunderstanding that Traitor Trump was abusing his official power in the conduct of foreign policy to get a foreign government to investigate his political rival.
Article II, Section 4, says the president “shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
@Deborah Hennessey They hold their party over the law.
@Deborah Hennessey they won't be able to read anything over 2 sentences long
He should have the cartoon trump running from the peach saying that it was a “perfect” phone call!

Funny, it's all fake. It will all fail and you fakes will get Trump 2020!+

@John Days Я смеюсь над тобой. Путин владеет вами.
Love this! Thanks!
John Days Republicans can only handle simple problems that is why they propose simple solutions. Their reasoning: I don t like this, it makes me scared and I don t understand it so do away with it. They think that they can justify it with the Bible overlooking that it is not up to humans to judge. The All mighty judges in the end and for the time being love, compassion and forgiveness is what He asks us to practice. I suggest you pray for wisdom and understanding to guide you.

Comment of the evening!
Trump's like those people who speak really loud on their phones and then accuse you of eavesdropping when you heard every word they said.
That's like my step-mom. She talks really loud that I can't help but hear most of what she's saying no matter who she's talking to
th-cam.com/video/fdcCayS9i2c/w-d-xo.html
john smith i came here to say that 😄
@Jan Jansen Oooooh! I wanna hear . . . . .
like that girl freakin out on the train
Keep in mind 'quid pro quo' literally means 'this for that'. Favour for favour. Which is what happened.
SunScourge It is the only way Trump Supporters can defend Trump’s actions. If Trump didn’t specifically say the words, “Quid Pro Quo,” then they believe it didn’t happen. It is just like sovereign citizens when they are pulled over by police. When the officer asks to see their driver’s license, they say that they were not driving a vehicle, but were “traveling” in a vehicle and thus don’t need a driver’s license. They also don’t recognize any law enforcement officers except for the actual Sheriff.
Except the President has the authority, actually the duty, to ask if the leading candidate in the current race could be owned by Ukraine because of his (and his son's) prior dealings with that country. We all want to to know that, don't we?
We should use the old fashioned word "Bribery" :D
@@hectorheck1353 Certainly. That's what we have a "Federal Bureau of Investigations" and "Central Intelligence Agency" and various other intelligence organizations for. We have among the best in the world. There is no reason at all to seek foreign help against a political opponent. Ukraine's resources are, far and away, nowhere near ours.
There's a proper way to do things. This wasn't it. That much, at least, should be so painfully obvious that we shouldn't even have to discuss it. The fact that we are shows just how willing people are to put aside the law and any semblance of wisdom or critical thought or morality in order to support someone who is giving them what they want (which is ironic, given that the things they "want" end up biting them in the anus every single time).
@@samuelrosander1048 I think I disagree. Trump has a reason not to trust the FBI and CIA, correct? Additionally, wouldn't it be the President's number one job to ensure the integrity of our election? And wouldn't we expect our President to do whatever it takes to get those answers? We're talking about a leading candidate in the polls that could become the next President. Can you rely on lower level people in that regard? Sometimes at your work, don't the bosses have to get together and agree before the peons can get to work?
Clearly Ukraine could have easily said yes or no and then we'd have an answer and move on.
So it can appear to be asking for dirt, and it can also appear to be asking for legitimate information. If the House votes to impeach, the Senate will favor the President in that you have to tilt your hat to allowing the President to do their job effectively.
The blue wave is getting stronger. BLUE 2020
The blue wave is more of a laughing stock every single day..

@@westernnewyork6253 What colour is the sky, there, in your world?
I wonder if everyone here is a Democrat?
I’m a republican, and I agree with getting Trump out of office asap
I applaud your reasoning that our democracy is more important than party lines loyalty.
i’m non partisan because i’m not a brainwashed political sheep
I signed up as a Republican to screw with tRumpsters. I can vote against tRump and Cory Gardner TWICE.
When I was young I was a Repub. Moral, fiscally responsible, law abiding, and commendable people were leading the party then...
I, too, am a registered Republican, but this current administration is NOT what I support at all. I consider the GOP that decided to back Trump as a candidate for the Republican Party, to be the dumbest SOBs ever. They - at that point - must have seen what a completely unfit candidate he was. They failed in their job to have the best possible candidate run and now the whole country is paying the price. Anyone who read Trump’s book The Art Of The Deal could see he was a con man and thief and reveled in “winning” no matter who got hurt. It’s all about him and always has been.
Honestly trump getting elected has disturbed the balance, it has massively lowered people's expectations of a president. Back then you can proudly say you're a democrat or republican because of your believes, nowadays claiming to be a republican equals endorsing a mental health patient as the president. If the next president is even half as competent as bush jr people would still be relieved.
I miss the good old days when the least intelligent person in the administration was Dan Quayle.
truepeacenik
Me too. Ah. Good times.
🥔
Dan Quayle was a literal Rhoades Scholar compared to Trump!
@@kibblesnbits9146 Hahahaha! I was thinking the exact same thing!!
You CANNOT be a moral human being AND still continue to support Trump. Period.
I've met unfortunately misguided and sheltered seniors that support him because they simply don't keep up with politics. I wouldn't call them immoral, or even amoral, but more or less sadly misinformed.
I am, and I do.
@@dacksonflux But it *is* immoral to vote for someone without being informed. They are failing their due diligence as voters.
Shawn Michel de Montaigne I agree
@@TheMarie2000 Lots more people would agree, if the Democrats did not apply just as much zeal towards things that many voters find equally repugnant (as what Trump does), such as abortion. I have actually met people who believe it it wrong to support any candidate who expands or even allows "abortion rights".
Single issue voters have long been a problem whether their single issue leads them to the Right or to the Left.

Im surprised they didn't include a Jim Jordan snippet.😂
This is only the first half of the monologue! Maybe in the second half!
Why? The guy is a joke!
@@ronjohnson21 i mean to say that proves your bias, seeing both sides is crucial in seeing whats right. honestly both sides brought up good arguments, but to say Jim Jordan is a joke is ignorant.
@@yeahitsyadam8766 Jim Jordan didn't do anything but spout Fox news talking points and sound like a garbled idiot.
That cartoon donald always cracks me up :p
A Roald Dahl reference and a Dr. Seuss reference in the same segment? You are awesome.
That right there gives right to pause.
Remember when Trump had a top secret intelligence meeting at Mar-A-Lago where waiters were using their cell phones to light the plans out in plain view? I guess if you got $200,000 to spend on something/someone really stupid, you might get a show with your dinner.
Anyone else try and imagine school teachers trying to explain all this in say, 25 years? "Just call it the bath salt years and skip ahead."
"Many conspiracy theorists at the time thought there was something in the water. Turns out, it was a hallucinogenic."
You know we were all sucking back lead til 1993 or so, right? This was inevitable.
Listen, all that has to be done is ask the man who heard the Ambassador Sondland phone call what he heard. And repeat what he heard of the phone call. Also repeat what the Ambassador said 🍄 said after the phone call was over. The beauty of this is yes and no. Hearsay, but the kind that convicts.
Once that staffer testifies it is pretty much over for king🍄.
Just ask Sondland next week.
@@donmoore7785 yup. He is on the hot seat. What Taylor said about his staffer might be hearsay but what the staffer Friday is going to reveal in closed session will come out in open session and what Sondland will be forced to talk about is the meat in this stew.
My question is why can't someone with access to the secret server pull the call and play it at the hearing? Or maybe the Dems have and that's the ace up their sleeve? Help me out here! Lol
I just hope he actually faces justice this time.
@@kimberlyfoust2815 read the "perfect" transcript.😆😆 What is on that server doesn't matter at this point.
Who else heard Mission Impossible theme music 🎶 when they showed Nixon hanging from wires 🎼🎵
Lol 😂😂
You've helped us....(me), so grateful for your humor and perspective
My favorite moment from the inquiry today was when the Republican counsel asked:
"This irregular channel... it's not as outlandish as it COULD be, is that correct?"
I legit lost it there. Was that seriously what he was going with? The whole thing was truly surreal.
Taylor lost it too, in a reserved ambassadorish way.
I wonder if the Ambassador's phone was on speaker. Some people do that if they are hard of hearing.
or shoving exorbitantly priced food in their faces.
"Hi, Luigi...get me a plate of that spaghetti a la Squid Pro Quo"
Did he say "whipper-snackers"? Cause that's even better than snappers😆
Yes he did!! 😂😂😂
I'm glad someone else heard that. 😄
Yup he did 😂
Oh, please please! Make it go away. I don't want to see that stupid pumpkin anymore!
Good writing tonight.
