And I would say, who tucked you in at night? Was it Dick Cheney?” She added, “I guess you could say I have big Dick Cheney energy.”The cold open addressed the documentary footage that surfaced earlier this week of Nancy Pelosi trying to get a hold of then-Vice President Mike Pence on the phone.

The January 6 Committee has officially thrown down the gauntlet, announcing that it has “issued a subpoena to former President Donald Trump for testimony and records relevant to the Select Committee’s investigation into the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol and its causes.”
Norman Lear is 100 years old, yet the five-time Emmy winner still remembers the chilling moment more than 90 years ago when he says he heard “the vicious, Antisemitic voice of Father Coughlin railing against American Jews.”
you a man who will commit securities fraud for you! Are you kidding?”Joking somewhat aside — it is Trevor Noah after all — the late night host noted that giving your wife shares in your company is “a weird gift,” noting that it sounds more like Trump forgot Melania’s birthday and was scrambling to find something to give her at the last minute.“The funny thing is, Truth Social is such a failure of a company, that she probably didn’t even want the shares, you know?” Noah said. “It’s almost like when your kids give you that gift, but it’s just like a piece of macaroni art for your birthday.
Donald Trump used to make Kanye West feel like a superhero. Now even the controversial former president is looking at the artist like he’s gone off the deep end.

“January 6th was one of the most dramatic and consequential moments in our nation’s history,” proclaimed Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) as portrayed tonight on Saturday Night Live once again by Kenan Thompson. “So, to fight back, we assembled a team of monotone nerds to do a Power Point,” the long time cast member added as fellow SNLers played Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and soon-to-be departing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), with the latter in the form of Heidi Gardner.

wants to testify — comparing him to Jack Nicholson’s character in “A Few Good Men” — so that he can formally take credit for inciting such masses, Navarro was skeptical that it’d even be possible for Trump to appear in court this late in the investigation.“Listen, the subpoena yesterday, that’s mostly symbolic. Trump is not going to show up,” Navarro said bluntly. “He’s not going to show up, and there’s no time before the elections, and there’s not time before this committee disbands for him to show up.”Navarro added that she’s so angry at this point, but all that can really be done is for people to vote, and vote Trump allies out of office.
Republicans are questioning the timing of the January 6 Committee's subpoena of former President Trump – more than a year after it started its investigation and just weeks before Republicans are expected to disband the committee if they win back the House. "The Select Committee’s unenforceable subpoena is just another made-for-TV prop," Rep.
New footage from January 6, 2021, shows a candid moment where House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened to physically strike then-President Trump, should he have joined those protesting at the Capitol. In the video, which was publicly shared Thursday, Pelosi admits the actions could have resulted in her going to prison — a consequence she said she would "be happy" to accept.

Former President Trump "loves the idea of testifying" before the House select committee investigating January 6th, a source close to Trump told Fox News Digital just after the panel unanimously voted to subpoena him. The source said that if Trump complied with the subpoena and testified, he would "talk about how corrupt the election was, how corrupt the committee was, and how Nancy Pelosi did not call up the National Guard that Trump strongly recommended for her to do three days earlier on January 3, 2021." The source told Fox News Digital that it is unclear at this point if Trump actually will testify before the committee, but stressed that Trump "loves the idea."

Stephen Colbert thinks Ohio senate candidate JD Vance might have some serious competition — but not so much in his bid to become senator. No, Colbert joked on Tuesday night’s “Late Show” that Vance will have to edge out Lindsey Graham if he truly wants to suck up to Donald Trump.With midterm elections just four weeks away, Colbert opted to use part of his monologue to check in on some of the races (including a race between bears, one of which is apparently named for him).
