Colbert and co. couldn’t help themselves. They heard former Trump White House staffer Cassidy Hutchinson describe a surreal scene tied to Jan. 6, 2021 and they couldn’t wait to spread it on their respective platforms.

Thursday’s installment of The Daily Show on Comedy Central hit the trifecta of current liberal talking points: Donald Trump is like Hitler, Kamala Harris is wonderful, and Tim Walz putting tampons in boys’ bathrooms is no big deal.

Comedy Central's The Daily Show’s temp host of the week, Michael Kosta, welcomed Vice President Kamala Harris’s selection of Tim Walz to be her running mate on Tuesday by praising Walz’s liberal record as governor of Minnesota. Even jokes nominally about Walz were more about Midwestern stereotypes than Walz.

Comedy Central’s weekly temp host of The Daily Show, Michael Kosta, reacted to the outrage that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif is  allowed to compete in the women’s Olympic boxing tournament on Monday by spreading fake news about pro-life laws in America in an attempt to argue conservatives are being hypocritical. He also conveniently never said the words “failed gender test.”

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show doesn’t know what the definition of an echo chamber is. On Thursday’s show, weekly temp host Ronny Chieng hailed former GOP congressman turned CNN talking head Adam Kinzinger for helping the show break out of its bubble as Kinzinger told him what he wanted to hear, mainly that “there is nothing more conservative” than voting for VP Kamala Harris in…

It was a tale of two networks on CNN and MSNBC in their 6 am hours today. CNN This Morning devoted a long opening segment to the strike that reportedly killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran. Meanwhile, over on Morning Joe, Joe and Mika might be on vacation, but under the baton of Jonathan Lemire, that same crucial opening segment was all about "cat ladies," "weird,"…

After a week off, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned on Monday with Jon Stewart in the anchor seat to recap President Joe Biden’s decision to step aside and Vice President Kamala Harris taking his spot as the Democratic presidential nominee. During a segment with correspondent Josh Johnson, the duo claimed that race-based attacks are all Republicans have and even implied that…

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show took the air early Friday morning for a live reaction show to day four of the Republican National Convention. Host Jordan Klepper was not happy that Republicans are simultaneously claiming that God spared Donald Trump’s life on Saturday while continuing to reject gun control.

It was a week of ridiculing Republicans for the men of late night comedy. From Monday to Thursday, the comedians attacked Republicans as racist, cult-like drones and told more jokes about VP-nominee JD Vance in one week than they have about current VP Kamala Harris all year.

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned to New York on Tuesday after the security reassessment at their Milwaukee theater changed in the aftermath of the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump. However, host Jon Stewart did not take well to NBC’s Lester Holt challenging President Joe Biden if he had done any “soul searching” since Saturday because Biden, according to him, has…

New York Times national religion correspondent Elizabeth Dias and national politics correspondent Lisa Lerer joined The Daily Show temp hosts Desi Lydic and Jordan Klepper on Comedy Central on Wednesday to promote their new book, The Fall of Roe: The Rise of a New America. It was a mournful time for all as they mused about “radicalized” Republicans and how “horrified…

After a couple of weeks of vacation, the full slate of late night comedy shows returned on Monday to reveal their reactions to President Joe Biden’s poor debate performance and subsequent interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. While nobody called for Biden to step aside, there were definitely calls for him to step up his game because democracy is allegedly at stake.

In the nine months since the end of the writers’ strike, the late night comedy shows have remained remarkably consistent, as a NewsBusters study determined 94 percent of their political guests have been liberal.

Jon Stewart was greatly distressed following the Thursday debate between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden. On a special edition of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Stewart lamented that the nation’s two choices for president are an “asshole” and someone who has “resting 25th Amendment face.”
