If this isn't the end of Trump, it sure will be the end of the illusion that America is a nation of laws.
Kim Jong Fun thank you chairman Kim, your a hell of a guy
Agreed. It's very concerning.
Thanks for catching up...
Kolgax “you guys” are a bit behind in the history, no?
Kim Jong Fun look into American history it’s ben corrupt and lawless for the elites for a long while now
The couple are time travellers. They came back to bear witness to this important day.
Caught on camera so they had to listen to this historic nonsense or the future would've been horrific.
So they're observing?
No they were there because of their son he was in a walker.

I agree. That was brilliant. I can see the lightbulbs going off in the heads of Steve's writers when they discovered that one.
absolutely underrated, the writer who wrote that deserves a raise
Stephen is so full of it and anyone who watches comedy tv then comments like he is getting News reports bwuhahahahahahahhahahah Here' Sondland admitting it wasn't a quid pro quo!!! He just presumed it was. th-cam.com/video/b-DbvapybVs/w-d-xo.html
#IWantNothing is 45's "I am not a crook" moment
I want nothing? He sounds like a brat whose not gotten his toy while at the supermarket with mommy!
Gordon Sondland testifies and smirks throughout the impeachment hearing is like him saying "If I'm going down, I'm dragging Trump and his Administration with me."
He was considerably less smug after this exchange with Maloney 🙄:
mobile.twitter.com/RepSeanMaloney/status/1197305400846147584
For a bit of context Sondland had spent most of the day talking bullshirt about 'oh, I don't recall' 'well if that's what someone else said, then...' 'that could be right' etc etc. until he finally had to give a real answer.
It's extremely satisfying to see. Wish I was there in the room to see it, I'd be eating popcorn and thoroughly enjoying myself.
Maybe the guy just had...like....resting smirk face !!!! Who knows...
*We all know Trump, what is Disgusting is that Republicans who live off our taxpayer money are defending Trump's corruption, it makes their party More corrupt than Trump*
...and a few loyal Republicans, and maybe some Ukrainians :)
“We were just following orders”
SS officers: We can say from experience that, that line does not go far for a defense.
You cant handle the truth!
@@phillipdaugherty1486 Dumb bot.
So that's Trump defence, why did they follow his orders, does that exonerate Trump, you mug
It actually went very far for them. There were very few convictions following WW2.
Nor did it go well for general Yamashita. He was sentenced to death and hung for crimes his men committed.
After Sondland‘s testimony, whether Trump is impeached and removed from office depends on you constituents calling your representatives and making your opinion heard. Make the call!
Yes!
The animators are having way too much fun with those peach intros. 😆
Agreed! Funniest things ever!
I feel really happy because now I have the image of the animators at their desks giggling like children and drawing and it's making me so happy!
The Republicans kept begging for someone with first hand knowledge and now they want to change the subject
Trump got caught orange handed

Excellent word play!
I prefer Red-Square-handed. 🙂
Small handed

Gotta love Sondland taking as many people down with him as possible as the ship sinks. Incredibly cathartic to see.
can't wait until it is Rudy Giuliani's turn, he is the one person involved in this as selfish and with as big of a ego as Trump himself. If he goes down, he will take everyone else with him.
Seriously!! I’m actually totally astonished that it took this many Trump peons to finally get to one who gleefully renounces that dipshit, wannabe autocrat.
Related or unrelated to the impeachment, there have been so many former trump servants who could have buried this guy.
I’m surprised Michael Cohen couldn’t be more incriminating. Even though he was no less than incriminating...
Jhon Shephard He’s lucky that he’s at that age. Was he a couple of decades younger and still had to practice law for a living, no firm, no matter how seedy would have that kind of attorney with that kind of resume on their payroll. How has Giuliani not been disbarred is beyond me.

There IS a reason that people often mistrust the legal profession....
you must have been watching another channel because I saw just the opposite/ trump was exonerated and you are an operative
The fact that Pence calls his wife "Mother" is beyond disturbing.
Not if you're Dr. Sigmund Freud
It's very old fashioned, not disturbing. My grandfather called my grandmother, 'Mother.' Historically, in American culture, it was common.
It is one thing to do this at home, quite another to do it when you are not speaking to your children.
I'm from Germany and my grandfather called my grandmother "mother", too. I never thought it was weird. I grew up with it, it's just a cultural thing. Personally I probably wouldn't do that, though.
To be honest, I find it way more disturbing when people call their partner "daddy" in a sexual way...
Man that's weird as hell can you imagine having sex with your wife and hear oh mother that's good why is your mind on mother that's creeeeeeepy😂
Can’t blame Sondland for not wanting to take the fall for trump like EVERYONE else before him
He paid 1 million dollars for the "privilege" of being Trumps fall guy.
Nope, not even for a million dollars!🤣🤣
David miorgan wow! You play this card again? Could be done by any race , any religion,.
I am not even a Jew and i loathe this kind of shite from your lot!
“Jews are like that”??? Really ?? Ffs.
To be honest he comes across as quite likable and he actually did make his own fortune unlike ol' pumpkin head. He gave a very assured performance while dishing all of the dirt
CrimsonBlasphemy that’s pocket change for Sondland.Not enough to go to prison.
“We did not want to work with Mr. Guliani.”
No one ever does!
No one outside of the Kremlin...
Even then its out of necessity
People who want marriage between cousins to be legal certainly would.
ryder mccall Because he spits when he talks and smells like the inside of a bellybutton....
The risk is either that he will drain you of blood or you'll go to prison.
Even his own clothes, hair, eye glasses and teeth are trying desperately to get away from him!!! 😂😂😂😂
He incriminated everyone except Dr Ben Carson. Is he still left?
Carson is long gone. You don't have to be a brain surgeon to realize where this administration is going to end up....
Too busy picking out office furniture.
John Jackson Carson is asleep in his office
Yep , he is the only one left from the original crew. Still clueless, collecting a check
Sadly he is. Carson was just recently at the table the other day next to Trump.
Impeach.

John Lame Elk, Where did u get that? And why’re u asking me? I’m not the only person who uses the term.
That was some double decker bus Sondland threw everyone under.
Claiming ignorance of the law does not excuse the crime.
Mueller even let Erik off completely for exactly this. Yes, manslaughter is different from murder 1 but ya still killed somebody.
@David miorgan I can cheer you up, David. Just imagine how much fun you would have had if the Electoral college had not been in place. You could be cackling about H's impeachment and how delicious it tastes instead of supporting a lying, misogynistic, egomaniac who wants hurricanes stopped with nukes.
people also forget that conspiracy to commit a crime is also a crime.
rosset4music: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignorantia_juris_non_excusat
Another great Latin phrase for these godawful times is Et suppositio nil ponit in esse. Loosely translated, means saying something doesn't make it so.
although this parallel is not a crime....it is sort of like telling the officer after running a red light that i did not know it was illegal...LOL
Crossing off the days until trump gets the boot!
Don't hold your breath till 2020. Mar-A-Lardass has shown himself to be incompetent, useless and unable to tell truth for 3 years. Didn't deter Republicans. VOTE BLUE 2020!

...and soiled diapers should not be elected(-ish) president in the first place.

Trump seems so unhinged...screaming his notes
As if those notes were taken during his actual conversation and if America believes his lies, then you are all doomed.
Also, if that's Trump when he's prepared... Yikes!
Have you ever seen that photo of his open desk drawer full of non-prescription Sudafed?
Trump screams all the time, Trump," EXCUSE ME! EXCUSE ME, EXCUSE ME"
...and that note would literally just be "I want nothing!".
I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, that last line was hilarious
DEAR AMERICA:
No one, absolutely no one understands how you went from OBAMA to this.
Sincerely,
-The rest of the world.
@Joe Haden ha! It's funny to see Americans take Trump's side when he clearly does not gaf about America.....smh. When will y'all learn?
It's quite simple really. Obama was the first black man to be president. Then the a$$holes of America didn't like that. So, they decided to elect someone who thinks like they do. And wellua, we now got trump the first a$$hole president. Nuff said
America was going to crap before Trump went into office. Good thing he's in and the demorats are out.
Every single person that talks shit about Trump hasn't been affected by any of his policies. It's so fucking funny its just a trendy thing to do so students talk shit like they're cool. I'm sure the majority of the haters have never voted or arent even old enough to vote. Trump has positively affected more people I know than any President of my generation in less than one term. BTW Obama fucked over everyone but you're not old enough to feel that heat. Once you have a family and real responsibilities you will understand but maybe you won't because Trump is slowly tearing down all of Obama's mess he created
@@847JS change your drugs, those youre currently taking do harm to your brain
Idk how anyone supports trump. Every time I hear him talk it feels like I’m losing brain cells
John Keable People that support him don't have brain cells. Hard to lose brain cells when you never had them to begin with.
As they say on WGN radio in Chicago, you get a little more stupid every time you hear him blather.
I think these symptoms are brought on by trying to understand his broken English while hoping he isn't announcing his new border plan to nuke northern Mexico hurricanes, and seeding the left over clouds with crocodile eggs.
And you'd still have billions more than him.
They don't support him they support racism, misogyny and homophobia and he spews the most of it.
You shouldn’t need anyone to tell you that withholding military aid in exchange for personal favours is wrong
You might not need to be told that. A reasonable person might not need to be told that. Trump wouldn't believe anyone who did tell him that, because he seems to believe that he has been elected King of the United States, and an absolute King by divine right, at that. Given that the US is still broadly a cultural descendant of Europe, you might want to look into how we dealt with absolutist monarchs we had had enough of over here
Sondland: "Am I in trouble?"
(nervous laugh)
Yes, you really are.
Trump will get Daddy to send over his clean up men...
*"We just followed orders!"*

Herman, thanks for the laugh. Nice to meet you.
For once, Sondland did the RIGHT THING....ratting that Orange Peachy Don.
Sadly some news commentators already pointed out that Sondland tricky acting around some questions. Knowing too well that every word matters later when justice knocks on his door.
Ratting? Since when is giving sworn testimony "ratting"?

Neither him/her are qualified to be advisors. The guy bought a seat at Harvard for a couple of millions...That is a fact, not fiction.

@@francoisrd That's just a direct quote from Sondland's testimony. You can dispute why it was said.
But the whole point of these testimonies is that there is no explicit quid pro quo in the transcript so additional evidence from first-hand communications with the president was needed. The whistle blower report can't condemn Trump further than the transcript given that it relies solely on the transcript. So even if the above quote doesn't exonerate Trump, it does not condemn him either.

@@arthurmontana8791 a conservative shared an article that talks about the theory of Ukrainians supporting Hillary Clinton.
It's largely nonsense, but one official did call out Manafort's dealings.
That's the reason Trump didn't like Ukraine, and the previous president of Ukraine snubbed Trump in favor of Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton.
Zelensky had to overcome Trump's dislike of Ukraine, so it makes sense that he wouldn't contradict Trump because Ukraine is stilk at war with Russia.
Zelensky has no real choice, he's quite the victim.
And France gave us the equivalent when we were throwing off the yoke of King George. Those folks are bleeding, and I for one, would rather they got that than us paying billions for a border wall.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Except the ambassador is a real bad ass that testimony was hilarious
And he doesn't have sex with children (that we know of)
Meanwhile: Fox News is declaring victory.
Just let them have their fantasy of "Trump never being wrong". It's not like they have much longer to enjoy it anyways.
Yea because these idiots used snippets from the testimony to mislead the public. Everything he testified put Trump way in the clear. I watched the whole thing
Many more outlets, other than Fox, are calling it a win for Trump. I’m sorry.
@Keith Jackson do you even know what this impeachment hearing is about? You'll feel stupid in a couple weeks like the rest of the mis led public. There was no crime committed it's just another bullshit tactic from the left to smear the right before Re election. This shit needs to end it makes our politics look so fucking stupid.
@@847JS do you own all the troll sock puppet accounts commenting here or do you have a fellow idiot working with you?
"I would have sat up and taken notice." --> Bud, that's still not you taking action. Even in your hypothetical you can't get it right.
Wanna bet the second phase of Trump’s annual check-up suddenly has to happen tomorrow?
He's been having dizzy spells - from all the spin.
I yield my time to congressman jack Daniels 🍷😂
Laban Kandie
Can we also consult Senator Aqua Fina?
Laban Kandie There needs to be a new emoji for Jack Daniels! 😆
I also yield to Senators Jamison, Sake, and Cuervo. Just bring the whole bar please. We’ll wrap things up with Stenographer Disaronno.
@Laban Kandie Jim Beam is feeling very left out. That's alright Jimmy, I'll keep you company! 😁
I'd vote for him
”Na na naa na, na na naa na, hey hey heyy gooood byeeee” man, I can't wait to sing that to Trump as he leaves the WH.
😅👏🌼👏🌼😅
SW627 I said nothing about being kicked out. Read my comment again. I said leaves the WH. You know how to read English........right?
That would be a nice rally song!
SW627 Want a cookie? Doesn't really matter either way. My bills still get paid whether a Democrat or Republican is president🤷🏾♂️
@SW627 You do realize he has hardly any support left? If he's not gone by the election no one will vote for him. Just look at the blue wave.
This Stephen Colbert's monologue is a nearly perfect performance. Thanks, The Late Show, for posting these clips on TH-cam!
Quid - pro - quo. They didn’t use the words ... they performed them.
I loved that academy awards out of time ending.
When there is no need to lie and no caution of being caught lying, Sondland looked so relaxed and joking around.
Wow. Nothing relieves more than not tell lies.
"That sounds like me"..."we used a lot of 4 letter words."
Lol, this is the same way he gaslighted his wives on as they found out he cheated on them 🤣
3 letter and 4 letter words - “Quid pro quo” 🤣 🤣 🤣
wow -- those last couple seconds is a must watch -- put a huge grin on my face!
Dang the hole he just blew in this administration makes the hole in the titanic look as tiny as trumps hands.
Tiny
raalte sorelated sorry I wanted to make them look bigger.... fixed it for you...
And the good news is they're just getting started :-)
President Pelosi won’t be pardoning these fools.
The GOP didn't want a woman elected in 2016. She wasn't. But now they have to face the possibility that a different woman might be president and the Electoral College can't block it this time. Poetic justice.
@LongRange Hunter , Highly unlikely, although possible!
Here's the kicker: Hillary is picked to be VP, then Pelosi resigns, and....well, you know...
It could happen if the Dems controlled both houses. Just the reps won't cut it.
Rob Bird because Pelosi isn't going to be president... even if the Repubs remove Trump, they will never vote to remove Pence. The election is in 11 months anyway.
@Will Ritter nonsense. If I've learned anything under the trump administration over the last three years it's to never write him off completely on anything. If anyone on earth could get the GOP to eat it's own tail and let Pelosi take over its trump, we got the very best the earth has to offer trying to make this happen.
The big question Jim Jordan is DYING to ask the Whistleblower, "Tell me, how did it feel to actually report the crimes people have committed?". 😬
@Kristie C ...And why they should be enforced and respected...
@@jackboot3946 Quite. The Republican members of the committee seem to be very upset that they can't get the name of the whistleblower because it means that they can't smear him/her directly, and leaves them having to deal with facts, which is something they have had problems with in the last 3 years or so
Nixon's men said,
"We were just following orders."
Do you know the answer to the bonus question? How many of Nixon's men (FBI) went to prison?
There was what was called the "Watergate 7"
Thank God for your monologues. Otherwise, I am caught between anger or crying.
Sad to know none of this will matter to Republicans and we need to understand that we are now in a fascist state
Frank F, Agree, somewhat. We’ve BEEN in a Fascist State, since 2015 Campaign Season. And the Fascists may not care, now. But,...what is it exactly that you think Will happen, here? This video is like the 1st hopeful thing (to me) to happen since Russia helped Trump steal the Presidency in 2016.
I, myself have been all kinds of stressed, depressed, fatalistic, nihilistic (know word, not exact def, sorry). All kinds of istics and isms. As I was saying, and you know this, its been hella hard on the ones who have their sanity intact.
Too many people like Vindman for it to really work. Yes, he tried, and now he's failed. He has a long list of failures, and this is just one more.
We've been infected, but the cure is available. I predict the largest ever election turnout in 2020 , even if his enablers trash their oath of office and keep him in office for now.
Mr. Gordan really really does not want to go to prison for Mr. Orange it seems.
Funny how the threat of prison time restored his memory!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@alisaoliver1969 hehehehe
Giuliani could be in a room all by himself, and people would still complain about having to be near him.
@Alex M He may at least take solace in the fact no one will want to pop his cherry.
TheReal008Zulu but only if that room is in our galaxy.
I so believe that trump is guilty but fear the GOP won’t impeach him.
Thank you Stephen!
Considering how many times Donnie willingly slammed that door shut on his own ding-dong over the last 3 years, I'm just surprised to see he finally learned to pull it out first.
If only Fred had learned the same lesson...
The guy in the background while Sonland was naming off people lol
He looks like he's afraid he'll be named 😂
Midway watching this I thought, goddamn FINALLY! It’s been the 3 longest years ever. Winter’s over, baby!
michaelbeholder not with Moscow Mitch at the helm. 😞
Thank you, Stephen Colbert, and your writers, for preserving my sanity during this very disturbing time in the U.S.
This monologue is Stephens best. Everything landed effortlessly.
Well, there was "...European Eumon" but that was probably due to the JD from rehearsal.
