McConnell should resign today and sincerely apologize to the USA for acquitting Trump for his failed coup.
And blocking Obama's choice for SCOTUS AND helping conservatives take over the majority of the judgeships in this country. He is scum and there will be a special place prepared for him in Hell.
He should go to jail, like all of their mob.
Thank you!!
In any other situation I'd agree, but LAST thing we need right now is another Kevin McCarthy to Johnson situation in the senate.... just saying 😔
@@helios7212good point there
Moscow Mitch McTurtle should retire tonight and apologize to the American public for stealing the Supreme Court.
are you kidding?
They see that as his crowning achievement. The revel, they rejoice, they will engrave it on his tombstone.
This is the man with - the help of a delinquent response by conservative Merrick Garland - who failed to impeach Insurrectionist traitor POTUS donald j trump.
Viewed as negligent miscarriage of justice by Patriots of both/three Parties but exalted by the Radical Right.
Glitch should retire tonight, apologize, then WALK barefoot back to Kentucky as penance.
He didn't steal the supreme court it's the Democrats that wanted to steal it
To be fair, he only stole one seat and the majority is 6 to 3 so it would still be GOP loaded even if he had acted with honour and decency
@@Boghopper1979But that gave us Garland as AG. He failed to prosecute Trump.
Please vote for the guy with 81 years behind him and not for the guy with 91 felony charges in front of him. Cheers....
Love it.
Yep vote a DEAD man puppet
This needs to be a Biden campaign ad. Own the age, cast it as wisdom and remind reasonable people of the alternative.
91 felonies that were all dropped or still going on? The guy with 81 years behind him who can't make his way off a stage or complete a sentence? Where is the U.S. going???
@@sts-steventalkssports8077 the 91 felonies are still ongoing. don’t forget Trump will be 81 years old 2 years into the presidency. And he can’t string a coherent sentence together NOW.
Both men are old . Neither of them should be president again. But I have to choose between an old man and a FELON, I choose the unindicted old man. Every day of the week. At least he didn’t tell Americans to drink bleach and take drugs instead of getting vaccinated. at least he didn’t try to tear up our constitution just to stay in power like Donald Trump did.
Donald Trump means the end of democracy . Our media has totally failed the American people. And so has our government under Donald J Trump who seeks to ROB millions of Americans of their healthcare
McConnel refused to allow Obama to fill the vacant seat on the Supreme Court, opening the way for the first of Trump's three Supreme Clowns, effectively making the Court a pathetic joke.
one of the many evils he's committed.
For them it's a completely acceptable Supreme Court as it enables their destructive world views and allows their billionaire friends to do whatever they want and allows their candidate for president to defraud the people and the nation. They are happy with their choices. It's sad but true.
Yet their are no consequences because that’s how politics works.
He’s responsible for the power that Trump has now. So he doesn’t deserve to be treated with kid gloves. He has always put party before country and his deep state. Mitch McConnell is a disgrace because he rendered the checks and balances that are supposed to prevent America from dictators, impotent.
Good riddance to the old fart!
He open said he would work against Obama therefore AGAINST THE MAJORITY FK HIM
McConnell is a great example of why we need term limits, in the Senate and the house! Also the Supreme Court!
No, that's what voting is all about. SCOTUS needs term limits as they are appointed and we don't get to vote them out.
@pj45670 👍
And age caps.
@@lyraserpentine894 that's a good point!
Supreme court is for LIFE! That has to change
Mitch’s lasting evil legacy will last for generations.
Yes, your daughters, and granddaughters, and great granddaughters will be dealing with the loss of rights that McConnell enabled.
What evil legacy?
@@poopyanalbumhole she doesn't hit him and she's not evil
@@stevechance150No they will not because that little game of targeting women will never happen again. Women will make sure of that because soon we will have control of everything.
@@joshuabergman9494have you been in a Coma the last several years?
Mitch, it’s more than time to go away. It’s your fault that Trump was not impeached when it was high time. Thanks to you we now have to deal with this sad specimen of a human.
Yeah mate ,you sound really intelligent to me lolol i supose you think Putin invaded Ukraine without provication ,,do a bit of research and you will find the C.I.A has been in Ukrain for decades specifically to spy on Russia but then you probably think thats ok while at the same time condeming Putin for protecting his Nation and reacting to the U.S direct provication ,you can't have it both ways or guess what ,it makes you a hypocrite ,,Trump will win and when he does ,don't complain about the paybacks cos you idiots made the rules of this political warfare.
TWICE he refused to impeach the DIRT-BAG!!!
And the fascist mob he leads.
And the fascist mob he leads
He was impeached by the house, he just wasn't convicted by the senate. 100% Mitch could - no SHOULD have voted to convict, then we wouldn't be dealing with this disaster now. Leaving the senate after supporting this nut job all the way, then endorses him AGAIN because trump is now the presumptive nominee. They just can't bend the knee enough.
Anyone who’s been to jury duty has done more service than Mitch in 40 years
Anyone who hasn’t kissed Putin or tp’s ass has done more service then McConnell anyone he hasn’t said they would openly work against Obama has done more for the country shall i include the unethical appt of scotus!? Fk him
Stephen says McConnell "served in our Senate for almost four decades." I'd say "infested" is a better verb in that sentence.
Chuck Schumer is the one that infested it
I guess it depends, is a disservice a type of service? Linguistically it might be correct, but it is still misleading.
lol!
Yeah served but did what exactly.
Boom tisssss. True. He's been 'The thing that wouldn't Leave' for many years. Glad to see the back of him.
It horrifies me that Mitch McConnell is the lesser of multiple evils.
I‘m not so sure. Sometimes, the enablers are the most dangerous one.
Liz Cheney, Karl Rove, Ken Buck, Paul Ryan.....all are now voices of reason in the republican party. Talk about FUBAR.....
I dunno, seems pretty evil to me.
He almost killed ACA, if it weren't for that DARN McCain.
Agreed 💯😔
IKR
That "star witness" really should be a bigger scandal than it is.
I'm old enough to remember when "Better Dead Than Red" was a thing (referring to Communist Russia/USSR). It's amazing how quickly the Republicans went from that to "Better Russian Than Democrat."
I wonder what a MAGA's smart-alecky reply to this one would look like? "Well, they're not communist anymore"? They never were. Russia went from totalitarian socialism to totalitarian kleptocracy near the end of the 20th Century & is at least as dysfunctional now as it has been in my lifetime of 69 years. The GOP obviously prefers kleptocracy over socialism. -Angelika's Husband
I, too, am old enough to remember the accusations of pinko aim at JFK. How times have changed.
That's insane
I guess we are not the actual " communists 😂"
Well, Trump was a Democrat, but then Russian government told him to become a Republican. And the rest is history....
Mitch should be held accountable for his actions
Maybe why he's getting out of the hot tub......
Accountability is an unknown word in that country.
No one pays for anything, no one has morals, memory, understanding, faith... Is all smoke and mirrors.
School shootings?
Not real
Jan 06?
Not real
Don Jr. emails connect his family to Russians?
Never happened
Trumps foot?
Which one?
Border Wall?
No one seems to remember him pleading with Mexico to pay for it, now Mexicans are his enemies, but were Muslims once...
Putin?
Was bragging about it for years to say "I never met him" to "He is the best".
Problems?
Obama did it, he founded ISIS.
Clinton?
Lock her up
Vaccines?
Lead to autism
He already has been held accountable. His mind is mostly gone.
what did he do?
@@prnotechis0 How’s the weather in Moscow, comrade?
Senate Leader Mitch McConnell once said his objective was to keep President Obama from accomplishing anything. I’m glad he’s leaving.
And he was allowed to do just that
@@NopeUghUghAbsolutelyNotthat's the unreal part! GOP is just a party of evil, power hungry asshats. Turtle boy was their poster boy.
He's leaving because the party is growing more repugnant and he's in the way. He, like "moderate" republicans, are being pushed out. You think he was bad? Get ready. Call it exaggeration, sure, but it's 1930s germany all over again.
Especially when it came to Obama wanting to appoint Garland to the USSC. Mitch said he wouldn’t allow it during an election year, and then turned around & allowed Trump to appoint Kavanaugh… during an election year.
I believe his stated goal was to "make Obama a one-term president".
“Intro to Poli Sci, Don’t Vote For Hitler” is pure comedy gold.
More than that, it sounds like a course that should be offered in more schools.
Unless doing so would be part of a mission from God!
Hitler was not elected to power. He was appointed. Then his supporters (unkowing to the legislature) set fire to the Riechstag, and he was voted special powers by their legislators to go after the phony culprits. Communists and Jews were blamed for the fire.
It would be funny if directed at Biden, who overrode Congress to send munitions to Israel, and is complicit in genocide.
A republican colluding with a Russian informant to attack the president is treason....mabe. its really awful abd unheard of. In any normal republican party. Thsre would be shame and a call to step down. Yet there is no republican that have shame? Whats wrong with picture?
The fact that the guy is called Smirnov - I mean, really, wasn't that a clue?
Smearnov😅
Comer and Jordan should be charged with treason.
If they are just "useful idiots", that is terrible and a threat to the national security of the USA. If they were willing participants, then it is indeed treasonous. Either way, it's horrendous.
when US senators visited USSR in august 1979, where biden was the head of the delegation, the USSR communist party internal report said "we were shocked when biden clearly expressed to us that he doesn't really care about the oppressed soviet dissidents, he only cares about how he looks in papers - as a fighter for freedom and democracy"

Thank you. Yes, the old man is old and likes ice cream. He's also the most qualified president, the most prepared, EVER in our history as a country. !!!! Thank you.
I ❤ Joe 💙💙💙
"This man is old, eats ice cream and has a dog? He's the ruin of this country!"
"This other man is nearly as old, orchestrated a coup, owes millions to the state of New York and has a criminal record as a rapist and a fraudster. Our savior!"
I dunno, I think Hillary might have been more prepared. He's the most prepared of anyone standing right now though
If the worst the right can do is "Biden is 81 and eats ice cream," then you know they've got nothing
I see the right's 81 and ice cream and raise them a 77 years old, 91 indictments, tried to launch an insurrection, and has said he'll be a dictator if elected. You know how big of an ice cream cone you'd need to beat that?
If people really want to save America, they need to begin speaking of Joe Biden's Historical Accomplishments, or they just going to remain in history, not make a difference today. Come on people! Get real!
“Alexander Smirnov” sounds like it would be another one of George Santos’ aliases.
Weird… I thought Santos founded the FBI then singlehandedly put an end to the Red Menace.
He sounds like the sort of person who would say "is potato" as both a good and bad thing.
McConnell created this mess, then slithers away like a snake.
Except snake are useful and good the biosphere.
Just think how much damaged he has caused as the U.S. Senate majority leader, the worst was not convicting Trump.
In all fairness, Trumps second impeachment was the only time in history that members of the presidents own party have voted to convict.....And then they got kicked out of the party.
This was exactly what I was thinking
He's getting off easy. He should have to stay behind and endure what his legacy has wrought.
He did NOTHING wrong and you know it.
@@doloreskloper9993 You rightwingers really need to stop downvoting comments just because you disagree with reality.
Trump is, and remains, the only president to be impeached twice, and the only president to have members of his own party vote to convict.
Whole lotta GD Russians around, for a party who CONSTANTLY claims that Russian interference is a "HOAX."
It was proven to be a hoax. Didn't cnn tell you lot? Keep clapping seal. Inject more cnn.
Idk Stephen seems to love to make pee tape jokes from russians we've never seen. Acts as if we can't go online and see hunter weighing his coke, snorting coke, having prostitutes over, smoking crack, driving over 100mph. That he had an illegal gun and dumped it in a public trash bin. (Convicted of that).
Now replace the word hunter with any of trumps kids and how nuts shows like this would go.
It's also why under trump we had the largest sanctions (at the time) on Russia ever. Killed a couple hundred Russians in Syria, and changed our Ukrainian policy of just humanitarian aid to allow for lethal aid. Followed by send lethal aid, weapons like stinger missiles and such. All this words nonsense, i care about what gets done.
They love those fat oligarch wallets and the Citizens United ruling.
and for a party that constantly calls Democrats Communists.
Mitch steps away, but soon there shall be another young sith in his place. Always two, there are. No more. No less.
Especially from a shit state like Kentucky
lol not young. youngER maybe 😂
And God help us with who takes McConnell's place, especially with Mike Johnson in place.
Stephen Colbert, you're comic relief is what keeps people sane! Thank you.
AMEN
I am so proud of you, Stephen, for not saying some cheesy nonsense congratulations to McConnell, who is a stubborn ideologue at best and a ruinous traitor at worst. Hell isn't good enough for Mitch.
He isn't a traitor and he's not going to hell
You can't be proud of someone you have no connection to. You can be impressed, grateful, etc., but not proud.Proud means you could boast about them.
Granted, Hell may be too good for Mitch McCONMAN, but I'd be glad to send his lame ass there, anyway!!
@@joshuabergman9494 You're right. He is actually several times WORSE than a traitor!!
@@joshuabergman9494Why bless your heart. You'll be so surprised when he's there to greet you. And, yeah, he is bought like so many of his treacherous little comrades.
Absolute immunity for trump, would equal an absolute loss of all rights for all US citizens.
Sorry, but I just had to say it again.
They won't give him immunity.
They are purposely delaying Trump's DC trial.
But Biden would also be immune and he can then disband SCOTUS, remain as president for as long as he wants, and appoint his successor! It’s a win-win situation 😃
I love you my Norwegian friend, but that is just hyperbole.
So 'Murica?
mcconnell, what a universally hated guy. cant wait for him to go, and that is the first good thing he did for america.
Anyone who votes for the GOP should be embarrassed by this useless, Putin-influenced impeachment case. Also, credit to Colbert for calling out the media for "ice cream hysteria".
you should go see Seth's "A Closer Lick" ! he did such a fun job
Yes, credit to Stephen for this but who helped fuel it? *cough*
You think people who get embarrassed because they have a conscience vote GOP?
51 former intelligence agents said you are Russian disinformation! Of course it's not true, but little minds like yours will believe it!
And yet he's a part of the media engaging in the 'ice cream hysteria.'
He held the senate and this country hostage for many of those years. He deserves whatever natural and comedic discomforts that come his way.
Goddamnit fund the Ukrainians!
Slava Ukraini!
YES !
Why when we selected a leader there in 2014 and this proxy war has been a mission for a long time....
😂
Fun fact for you sheep. There is weapons of mass distruction in Ukraine still. Remember when the media said there isn't to you 😂.
Who labs are weapons of mass distruction
"The friend of my enemy is my enemy." So the enemy of my friend is my enemy. Putin has been our enemy for longer than we are allowed to know, but he has never been anyone's friend...except Trump thought they were besties, but that was only while Trump was useful to Putin, in the White House.@@jimdoe3288
Kinda stunning that I'm learning about the impeachment case meltdown from a comedian
Expand your horizon beyond Conservative "Bubble world" Media might help.
They don't tell you about it on Fox.
Trump and his henchmen would never tell you anything near the truth!
Lol!
McConnell should be held accountable for all the crap he SUPPORTED over the years.
In that case the same should apply to Dems
what does Dems have to do with GOP party leadership??
Mitch is basically a dem / neo-con. He's one of yours Stephen.
@@theshadowman1398Sure, accountability should be held for our government.
He should, yet sadly no one is going to. And that sucks.
I wasn't sure Mitch was still capable of making his own announcements.
Also, f*** that morbid old nightmare.
Same thing could be said about Biden
@@joshuabergman9494Add Trump to that list.
Hmm, might have been a hologram with AI voice.
Biden has done more positive for this country than Mitch and Donald combined.
He's old, but he's got a good team around him, and he's not all out evil.
Cheers! 🍨
Watch Mitch grow a spine & integrity now that he is stepping down, as so many other GOP jellyfish do when leaving.
"MITCH please....you should have been gone decades ago."
Say…about four.
He should’ve been impeached/indicted/arrested for that little stunt he pulled in denying Obama a SCOTUS nominee and joyously allowing T***p to do it in 2020.
I suspect this is at least partly to head off anyone pointing out the hypocrisy of the Repubs crying about how old President Biden is, while having a leader of their own who's even older.
Should of retired when Joe was in a pool having his legs rubbed ?
Please only let left wing dinosaurs around who supported Robert Byrd and crow 😂
Proof of the fact, we need term limits there and in Congress!!!!!😮😮
Trump is called the ‘orange elephant’ in Europe. Even in the news.
Elephants are dignified. Call him an ape instead.
When Mitch strolled down memory lane did he recall what he said to Barack Obama when he was first elected president he would work to ensure he's a one-term president.
Can Moscow Mitch leave quicker?

Good for Stephen for calling out the corporate media!
I thought that was excellent. Instead of focusing on Smirnov they do some ice cream pizzagate level scandalism. That's the exact same thing they did with Obama, remember the umbrella scandal? Yes. Meanwhile Trump's rebuilding his party into a whole "don't vote hitler" test of its own...
This election will be a choice between Sanity vs Insanity, democracy vs fascism, good vs evil, freedom vs autocracy.
Humanity vs. inhumanity

As a non American it seems to me to be a choice between a senile old man and a narcissistic criminal. I’m not sure which is really worse
that's the only way Americans can decide apparently. They just don't see... it's just money vs money.
Wow. That’s just pathetic. From them claiming him to be the star witness of sorts, the one to drop the major bombshell, all the way down to just an itty-bitty-teeny-tiny-small piece of the puzzle.
Their only defense is trusting their fanbase has a 10-second memory span. Which, sadly, most have.
It's a 1000 piece puzzle, and they have 15 or so. The other 985 don't go in the same puzzle.
They've known all along. It's the same with all their claims. Seem like the type of crime that should put a person in prison.
@@artbargra Not to mention the complete refusal of clear facts when presented and a concentrated effort to avoid facts, if they don't like them.
@@artbargra It's not that they have a short attention span, it's that they don't care. Trump is banned from operating a charity, which should stop anyone from voting for him.

Hold off on the balloons and the cake just yet. He's not out of politics, he's just stepping down as the Senate Minority Leader by the end of 2024. Meantime, he's still in the Senate (his current term ends in January 2026), which means that he's still able to continue to inflict damage to the Republic.
you can laud the announcement but the evil old coot plans to serve out his term. i saw 2026 reported though my brother was telling me 2027. ugh. maybe just have 2 celebrations lol. for the announcement, and one for him either leaving or kicking it.

It’s usually about half. Depending on voter enthusiasm can be higher. 2020 had 66.8% turnout, which is the highest it’s been in a while.

Per-spective: re-look…Mr. Biden is the same age as Harrison Ford, Paul McCartney and Martin Scorsese. He's also a bit younger than Jane Fonda (86) and a lot younger than Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett (93). All these individuals are considered to be at the top of their professions, and yet I would not be surprised if they are more forgetful and absent-minded than when they were younger. In other words, an individual's age does not say anything definitive about their cognitive status or where it will head in the near future.
No pity for Mitch as he said he was the Grim Reaper.
Karma? Mitch.
Bye-bye Mitch wishing you a happy retirement in the Galápagos Islands 🐢

Yes, just another reason to show we need term limits, an required retirement age, no life time appointments for ALL offices including the not-so-Supreme court. Plus health benefits and any sort of pay STOPS once one is out of office. You know, just like us regular folks.

A November departure sounds to me like he's running from whatever we're about to get dealt.
Creepy fits Trump perfectly.
To be clear, McConnell said he was only giving up his title, NOT his Senate seat. Wait and see if he chooses to retain the seat and vegetate in place. Hey KY, do yourselves a service and retire him at your earliest opportunity.
Every Federal Elected Politician in Kentucky is a Trump MAGA Bobble Head.
They will just appoint the same ir worse to replace McConnell.
Thanks for "turd dog"! Priceless!
In Poland we have strong accent in English, but Stephen probably didn’t hear how well Mr. Sikorski, who studied at Oxford, speaks
Steven Cold beer!!! This is what i call having fun by education.😂😂😂
That was an amazing and heartfelt diatribe.
He sure is! President Joe Biden doesn't have to look like Brad Pitt, or be photogenic,... He can deliver, and he has
I’ll translate his silent pause.
Thank you mitch for finally doing what you should’ve done a hundred years ago, disappear from American politics
Hilarious from beginning to end
Thank you Stephen Colbert & your fabulous writers! By the way, I hear Mr. M Johnson has been holding up money for Ukraine because "our priority is protecting our own border." I guess he thinks the U.S. can't walk and chew gum at the same time! Yes - we can handle both domestic and International priorities at the same time.
Read the news - Johnson refused to even consider the bi-partisan border bill that people worked hard on for months - because Trump wants the border to stay a problem so he can campaign on it. Literal facts from the past week
Why is no one saying Mitch is 82yrs and can't do his job, if these same people think Biden is too old to do his job...
What? Millions of us have been saying that for years
Watched this last night. Worth watching again. 😅
I like ice cream too🍦President Biden is doing a great job and facing many challenges. Maybe they should serve ice cream at the peace talks.
2015. Top campaign official Papadopoulos (good luck spelling that from memory) got drunk and bragged to the Australian ambassador Russia was interfering in the election. GOP "he was just a coffee boy" (is that even a job? If so what was he doing drinking with Australian diplomat)
Still never heard it explained. Now they're basing an impeachment off a Russian asset. "he was just a micro piece"
Of course there's been a thousand details and things to note in between, just reminded me is all.
I used to believe in this country. I really did. Until these republicans can manage to stop being such sleazy, hypocritical, lying, sociopaths or we manage to somehow stop electing them I don't know anymore.
In Louisville. It'll suck seeing him here more often once he is out of the Senate entirely but that is one we are happy to take for the team.
Does that not give you the opportunity to voice your lack of appreciation loudly & publicly in person? That's how we do it here in Chicago. In a perfect world that alone should induce better behavior in office among civil servants.
It’s 2 more years before McConnell’s Senate term is over. By then he might be freezing up so frequently that he can’t leave his house.
Flip him the double bird for me.
Stephen and his writers with this monologue made me rock on my chair like I was on the notes of Jerry Lee Lewis' "Great Balls Of Fire"!❤🔥
What scandal!?! Old man with ice cream is old....😂
If what I've been overhearing from the old trump voters in my area is correct they aren't going to vote either way because they think the entire thing is rigged and at this point I'm not going to correct them anymore.
Just like the first rat off a sinking ship. It's a sign of the state of play in the GOP.
These comments makes me realize I am not the only one dissatisfied with the supreme court 😡 they are all sold out
The GQP and the KGB... BFF'S... 😅😅
