CITY, IT'S STEPHEN COLBERT!
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) ♪ ♪ ♪
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: GOOD TO SEE YOU
WHAT'S GOING ON?
HAPPY TUESDAY!
HELLO, CHRISTOPHER.
HELLO, PAUL.
HEY, EVERYBODY.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) ♪ ♪ ♪
>> Stephen: DANG, DANG, IT FEELS GOOD TO BE LIVE!
RIGHT THERE.
WELCOME, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> Audience: STEPHEN!
STEPHEN!
>> Stephen: COME ON.
THAT'S A LIVE CROWD RIGHT THERE.
>> JON: YEAH!p>> Stephen: THANK.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) PLEASE HAVE A SEAT EVERYBODY.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WELCOME, ONE AND ALL-- LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE.
WOOO!
WELCOME, ONE AND ALL TO "THE LATE SHOW."
I AM YOUR HOST, STEPHEN COLBERT.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) AS YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THERE, THAT
MEANS LEGALLY WE ARE LIVE AFTER JOE BIDEN'S FIRST OFFICIAL STATE
OF THE UNION ADDRESS.
AND LET ME TELL YOU LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT WAS
A ROLLER-COASTER RIDE OF RIP-ROARING REASONABLENESS.
KEEP IN MIND, A WEEK AGO, THIS WAS GOING TO BE A TOTALLY
DIFFERENT SPEECH.
BUT WHEN UKRAINE WAS INVADED, THE WHOLE WORLD CHANGED.
BECAUSE RIGHT NOW, THERE IS A DICTATOR WHO THINKS HE CAN
VIOLENTLY CONQUER A SOVEREIGN DEMOCRACY, BUT JOE BIDEN BEAT
HIM IN THE LAST ELECTION.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Jon: WHOA!
WHOA!
>> Stephen: OH!
>> Jon: WHOA!
>> Stephen: AND NOW THE WORLD IS FACING ANOTHER ONE WHO IS
ROLLING TANKS INTO UKRAINE.
MANY LAWMAKERS WORE THE COLORS OF THE UKRAINIAN FLAG, BLUE AND
YELLOW.
IT'S A SHOW OF SOLIDARITY NOT SEEN SINCE THE LAST "MINIONS"
MOVIE.
( LAUGHTER ) AND BIDEN GOT RIGHT TO THE TOPIC
ON EVERYONE'S MIND: VLADIMIR PUTIN'S INVASION OF UKRAINE.
>> HE THOUGHT HE COULD ROLL INTO UKRAINE AND THE WORLD WOULD ROLL
OVER.
INSTEAD, HE MET WITH A WALL OF STRENGTH HE NEVER ANTICIPATED OR
IMAGINED.
>> Stephen: YES, HE RAN INTO A WALL OF STRENGTH, WHICH IS WHY
WE MUST KEEP VLADIMIR PUTIN FROM ACQUIRING WEAPONS OF MASS
KOOL-AID.
( LAUGHTER ) OH, YEAH!
THEN, THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES CALLED FOR A
SYMBOLIC GESTURE FROM ALL THOSE PRESENT:
>> LET EACH OF US, IF YOU'RE ABLE TO STAND, STAND AND SEND AN
UNMISTAKABLE SIGNAL TO THE WORLD FOR UKRAINE.
( APPLAUSE ) ( APPLAUSE )
OVER THIS WEEKEND.
OVER THE WEEKEND, BIDEN AND OUR ALLIES IMPOSED CRIPPLING
FINANCIAL SANCTIONS ON RUSSIA.
AND TONIGHT, BIDEN ADDED A MEASURE AIMED DIRECTLY AT
PUTIN'S BUDDIES: >> THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT
OF JUSTICE IS ASSEMBLING A DEDICATED TASK FORCE TO GO AFTER
THE CRIMES OF THE RUSSIAN OLIGARCHS.
WE ARE JOINING WITH OUR EUROPEAN ALLIES TO FIND AND SEIZE THEIR
YACHTS, THEIR LUXURY APARTMENTS, THEIR PRIVATE JETS.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: WOO!
NOW SEIZE BEZOS' PENIS ROCKET AND THAT STUPID COWBOY HAT!
WOOO!
Oh!
>> Jon: OH!
>> Stephen: AND THE SMACKDOWN DIDN'T STOP THERE.
>> TONIGHT I AM ANNOUNCING THAT WE WILL JOIN OUR ALLIES IN
CLOSING OFF AMERICAN AIRSPACE TO ALL RUSSIAN FLIGHTS FURTHER
ISOLATING RUSSIA.
>> Stephen: BOOM.
NOW RUSSIANS WILL ALL BE STUCK IN THEIR AIRPORTS, EATING
CINNA-BORSCHT.
BUT IF HE REALLY WANTED TO PUNISH RUSSIA, HE'D JUST DIVERT
ALL THEIR FLIGHTS TO NEWARK.
( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )
TERMINAL "C."
TERMINAL "C," BABY.
AMERICA'S NOT ALONE IN THIS FLIGHT.
THE E.U. AND CANADA HAVE ALREADY BANNED RUSSIAN PLANES FROM THEIR
AIR SPACE.
AND ALL FLIGHTS TO RUSSIA HAVE EVEN BEEN CANCELLED BY THE
LOW-COST, HUNGARY-BASED AIRLINE WIZZ AIR.
( LAUGHTER ) THAT'S RIGHT, RUSSIA.
YOU CAN'T EVEN TAKE A WIZZ.
( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )
AND THEY'RE HUNGARY'S NUMBER-ONE AIRLINE.
pWHEN HIS SPEECH TURNED TO THE AMERICAN ECONOMY, HE STARTED
WITH THE CLASSICS: >> MY DAD HAD TO LEAVE HIS HOME
IN SCRANTON, PENNSYLVANIA, TO FIND WORK.
>> Stephen: WOO!
DO "NO MALARKY!" DO "DOG-FACE PONY SOLDIER!"
SNIFF SOMEONE'S HAIR!
THEN-- IT GETS VERY HOT, VERY FAST.
THEN BIDEN STARTED TALKING ABOUT HIS RELIEF PLAN, AND CHUCK
SCHUMER GOT OUT A LITTLE AHEAD OF HIS SKIS:
>> THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN-- THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN HELPED
WORKING PEOPLE-- ( LAUGHTER )
>> Stephen: ARE WE-- ARE WE-- ARE WE NOT CLAPPING?
OKAY, OKAY, I'LL SIT DOWN.
SORRY.
>> --AND LEFT NO ONE BEHIND.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: THERE YOU GO!
THERE YOU GO!
I DIDN'T-- THAT WAS-- I SAW I GOT A LITTLE...
IT'S KIND OF WEIRD.
I'M LIVE BUT EVIDENTLY CHUCK SCHUMER IS ON A SEVEN-SECOND
DELAY.
THEN BIDEN MADE A BIG PROMISE: >> WE'RE GONNA PROVIDE
AFFORDABLE HIGH-SPEED INTERNET FOR EVERY AMERICAN: RURAL,
SUBURBAN, URBAN, AND TRIBAL COMMUNITIES.
>> Stephen: YES!
BECAUSE IN AMERICA, REGARDLESS OF WHO YOU ARE OR WHERE THEY
LIVE, EVERYONE DESERVES THE FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHT TO
STREAM PORNOGRAPHY.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) THEN THE PRESIDENT HIGHLIGHTED
THE EFFORTS OF AMERICAN WORKERS.
>> POWERED BY PEOPLE I'VE MET, LIKE JOJO BURGESS, FROM
GENERATIONS OF UNION STEEL WORKERS IN PITTSBURGH.
WHO IS HERE WITH US TONIGHT.
WHERE ARE YOU, JOJO?
>> Stephen: "JOJO WAS A MAN WHO THOUGHT HE WAS A LONER, BUT HE
KNEW IT COULDN'T LAST.
JOJO, JOJO LEFT HIS HOME IN TUSCON, ARIZONA, FOR SOME
CALIFORNIA GRASS.
GET BACK!
GET BACK, JOJO!" ( APPLAUSE )
GET BACK TO WHERE YOU ONCE BELONG!
COME ON, NO, I'M SERIOUS, FOLKS.
GET BACK!
NOT EVERYONE WAS FOCUSED ON THE SPEECH.
KEVIN McCARTHY WAS THERE BUT BUSY LOOKING AT HIS PHONE.
TO BE FAIR, TODAY'S WORDLE WAS PRETTY TRICKY.
( LAUGHTER ) OF COURSE, THE MINORITY LEADER
IN THE HOUSE NOT PAYING ATTENTION LOOKED DISRESPECTFUL.
BUT KEEP IN MIND, HE MIGHT'VE BEEN ON AMAZON SHOPPING FOR A
SPINE.
( LAUGHTER ) MANY, MANY--
( APPLAUSE ) GOOD GUY.
YOU'LL LIKE HIM.
MANY OF BIDEN'S CABINET WERE THERE.
WE GOT TO SEE SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATION PETE BUTTIGIEG
IN THE BALCONY.
JUST KIDDING.
I'M JOKING!
WE MAKE JOKES!
JUST JOSHING.
THAT BOY IS JOSHUA DAVIS, A 13-YEAR-OLD WHO HAS BEEN
FIGHTING TO HELP KIDS WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES.
BUT A SEAT AT THE STATE OF THE UNION WASN'T THE ONLY REASON IT
WAS A SPECIAL DAY FOR JOSHUA.
>> HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BUDDY, BY THE WAY.
( APPLAUSE ) FOR JOSHUA, AND 200,000 OTHER
YOUNG PEOPLE WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES, LET'S CAP THE COST OF
INSULIN AT $35 A MONTH.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: OH, MY GOD, HE'S SO
ADORABLE.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) HE JUST-- I JUST WANT TO GRAB
THOSE CHEEKS!
AND-- THIS IS TRUE-- IT'S HIS 13th BIRTHDAY.
THE POOR KID GOT STUCK WITH THE WORST BAR MITZVAH THEME OF ALL
TIME: RAMPANT INFLATION.
( LAUGHTER ) ANYWAY, IT WAS REALLY A SWEET
MOMENT.
I MEAN, THERE'S NO ONE IN THAT ROOM CUTER THAN THAT KID.
( APPLAUSE ) ( LAUGHTER )
I STAND CORRECTED.
THE PRESIDENT ALSO ANNOUNCED THAT COMPANIES WHO TOOK
ADVANTAGE OF COVID RELIEF WERE FINALLY GOING TO BE HELD
ACCOUNTABLE: >> THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT WILL
NAME A CHIEF PROSECUTOR FOR PANDEMIC FRAUD.
>> Stephen: HOPEFULLY, HE MEANS FINANCIAL PANDEMIC FRAUD, AND
NOT LYING ABOUT "MAYBE BEING pEXPOSED" SO YOU CAN GET OUT OF
GOING TO YOUR COUSIN'S DESTINATION WEDDING.
( LAUGHTER ) BIDEN TOUTED HIS COVID RESPONSE:
>> I'VE ORDERED MORE PILLS THAN ANYONE IN THE WORLD HAS.
>> Stephen: WOW, I DIDN'T KNOW JOE WAS CAST IN THE NEXT SEASON
OF "EUPHORIA."
THERE YOU GO!
NOTHING LIKE A LIVE SHOW, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
BIDEN FINISHED HIS SPEECH WITH THE UNVEILING OF HIS BIG "UNITY
AGENDA," AND THE FIRST ITEM STUCK OUT TO ME.
>> LET'S TAKE ON MENTAL HEALTH.
>> Stephen: I CAN'T BELIEVE HE MADE A DIRECT ATTACK ON
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE.
( LAUGHTER ) ( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )
THEN-- >> Jon: OH!
>> Stephen: BIDEN ENDED WITH A ROUSING SALUTE TO AMERICA.
>> WE ARE THE ONLY NATION ON EARTH THAT HAS ALWAYS TURNED
EVERY CRISIS WE HAVE FACED INTO AN OPPORTUNITY.
THE ONLY NATION THAT CAN BE DEFINED BY A SINGLE WORD.
>> Stephen: STUFFED-CRUST!
WAIT, THAT'S TWO.
CRUNCHTASTIC?
BENNIFER?
( LAUGHTER ) I'M SORRY, MR. PRESIDENT.
I INTERRUPTED.
YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE STATE OF THE UNION?
>> MY REPORT IS THIS: THE STATE OF THE UNION IS STRONG BECAUSE
YOU, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, ARE STRONG.
( APPLAUSE ) WE ARE STRONGER TODAY-- WE ARE
STRONGER TODAY THAN WE WERE A YEAR AGO.
>> Stephen: THAT'S TRUE, BUT IT'S A PRETTY LOW BAR.
A YEAR AGO, WE WEREN'T WEARING PANTS AND OUR ASSES HAD MERGED
WITH OUR COUCHES.
( LAUGHTER ) BUT ALL IN ALL, IN THE END, IT
WAS A POWERFUL SPEECH AT A MOMENT OF GLOBAL CRISIS, AND
BIDEN BROUGHT IT HOME WITH A ROUSING CALL TO NATIONAL
GREATNESS: >> THIS IS OUR MOMENT.
TO MEET AND OVERCOME THE CHALLENGES OF OUR TIME, AND WE
WILL AS ONE PEOPLE, ONE AMERICA, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL, AND MAY GOD PROTECT OUR TROOPS.
THANK YOU.
GO GET HIM.
>> Stephen: YEAH, GO GET 'EM!
JUST DO IT!
SMOKE 'EM IF YOU GOT 'EM!
PLAY BALL!
GET JIGGY WITH IT!
GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!
THAT'LL DO, PIG.
THAT'LL DO.
FOR FRODO!
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).
♪ ♪ ♪ LET'S GO!
WE'VE GOT A GREAT SHOW FOR YOU TONIGHT.
MY GUEST IS SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS.
BUT WHEN WE RETURN, MEANWHILE!" ♪ ♪ ♪
>> Stephen: WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY!
GIVE IT UP FOR JON BATISTE AND STAY HUMAN.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Jon: YEAH!
OH!
>> Stephen: JON, MY FRIEND.
HAPPY LIVE SHOW.
>> Jon: HAPPY LIVE SHOW TO YOU, TOO.
>> Stephen: HAPPY LIVE SHOW.
WE HAVEN'T DONE A LIVE SHOW WITH A LIVE AUDIENCE IN OVER TWO
YEARS, RIGHT, IN HERE.
WE DID THEM UPSTAIRS WITH A LIVE AUDIENCE, WE HAVEN'T DONE IT.
THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE THIS EVENING.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) >> Jon: WOOO!
WOOO!
>> Stephen: JON, I GOT RIGHT HERE COMING UP IS SENATOR BERNIE
SANDERS TO GIVE HIS REACTION TO TONIGHT'S STATE OF THE UNION
SPEECH.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) ALWAYS A PLEASURE, ALWAYS A
PLEASURE, ALWAYS A PRIVILEGE.
YOU KNOW I SPEND MOST OF MY TIME RIGHT OVER THERE, COMBING
THROUGH THE DAY'S BIGGEST NEWS, AND SELECTING FOR YOU THE
FINEST, MOST TOPICAL INDIAN ROSEWOOD, SPRUCE, AND MAHOGANY
STORIES.
I THEN HAND-SHAPE AND COMBINE THEM WITH AN ABALONE
MULTI-STRIPE BACK INLAY, ADD FORWARD-SHIFTED SCALLOPED
BRACES, ANTIQUE WHITE BINDING, AND A HIGH-PERFORMANCE NECK WITH
A HEXAGON FINGERBOARD, AND FINALLY LAY IN A
TORTOISE-PATTERN PEARL PICK GUARD, AND A COMPENSATED
BONE SADDLE, TO CRAFT FOR YOU THE EXQUISITE MARTIN D-45
DREADNOUGHT ACOUSTIC GUITAR THAT IS MY NIGHTLY MONOLOGUE.
BUT SOMETIMES, SOMETIMES I SNAP AWAKE IN AN RUSTY COFFIN FREEZER
BEHIND AN ABANDONED DAIRY QUEEN OUTSIDE GALVESTON.
THEN I NAIL A 2X4 TO A CEDAR URN I STOLE FROM A FUNERAL, STRING
ON SOME BRAKE CABLES I RIPPED OUT OF A COP CAR, THEN I CUT EYE
THE LOCALS ON THE TEXAS CHAINSAW BANJO OF NEWS THAT IS MY
SEGMENT: "MEANWHILE!"
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) MEANWHILE, BABY!
IT KNOWS ALL, IT SEES ALL.
MEANWHILE, "PELOTON OWNERS CAN NOW PLAY A VIDEO GAME WHILE THEY
WORK OUT."
EVEN MORE EXCITING: THEY CAN ALSO NOT DO THAT.
( LAUGHTER ) THE NEW FEATURE IS CALLED
"LANEBREAK," AND IT TURNS YOUR PELOTON SCREEN INTO AN
INTERACTIVE VIDEO GAME, WHERE "RIDERS PEDAL ALONG A FLOATING
VIRTUAL TRACK, ENCOUNTERING PROMPTS AND CHALLENGES ALONG
THE WAY."
IN OTHER WORDS, THINK 'MARIO KART' MEETS PELOTON."
"ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY FINAL PUSH.
FINAL PUSH!
LOOK OUT FOR THE GREEN SHELLS!
LIFE IS GOING TO THROW A LOT OF BANANA PEELS YOUR WAY, SO WHAT
DO WE DO?
SAY IT WITH ME: TURN!
FUN!
THINGS!
INTO WORK!
YAY!" ( APPLAUSE )
MEANWHILE, A NEW PRISON IN ZURICH RECEIVED HUNDREDS OF
APPLICATIONS FOR VOLUNTEERS TO "LIVE LIKE A PRISONER" IN
ORDER "TO TEST THE NEW JAIL BEFORE THE FACILITY ACCEPTS ITS
FIRST INMATES."
THEY'RE TRYING TO MAKE THE EXPERIENCE AS REAL AS POSSIBLE.
BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT REAL PRISONERS, STRIP SEARCHES ON
ENTRY... OPTIONAL.
MIGHT WANT TO WATCH OUT FOR WHO OPTS INTO THAT.
I'LL HAVE THE STRIP SEARCH, OFFICER WITH EXTRA CAVITY.
MEANWHILE, "SCIENTISTS HAVE SOLVED THE 30,000-YEAR-OLD
'VENUS' STATUE MYSTERY."
HAVEING DISCOVERED OF WILLENDORF IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND FINEST
EXAMPLES OF HUMANS DISCOVERING A NEW ART OR
TECHNOLOGY AND IMMEDIATELY USING IT FOR PORN.
BY THE WAY-- AND THIS IS TRUE-- YOU'LL NOTICE DOWN THRE, MY NET
WORK MADE US BLUR WHAT ONE ASSUMES ARE GENITALS ON A
30,000-YEAR-OLD FERTILITY SCULPTURE.
THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT THAT CBS VIEWERS NOT BE UPSET BY
ABSTRACTED PALEOLITHIC NUDITY AFTER A RELAXING EVEN OF
MURDERED SEX WORKERS ON "CSI:VEGAS."
( APPLAUSE ) MEANWHILE, IN SAN DIEGO,
AUTHORITIES SEIZED NEARLY $3 MILLION WORTH OF METH IN AN
ONION SHIPMENT, IN WHICH THE METH WAS SHAPED INTO SMALL
GLOBES DESIGNED TO LOOK LIKE ONIONS.
NOT SURE IF YOUR ONIONS ARE METH?
IF IT MAKES YOU CRY BECAUSE OF ITS FRUMS, IT'S AN ONION.
IF IT MAKES YOU CRY BECAUSE YOU SOLD YOUR DAUGHTER'S BIKE TO A
NAME WITH NO TEETH NAMED SKEETER, COULD BE METH.
MEANWHILE, PEPSI IS INTRODUCING A BRAND NEW SODA FAVOR CALLED
NITRO PEPSI.
A FIRST-OF-ITS-KIND NITROGEN-INFUSED COLA THAT HAS A
CREAMIER AND SMOOTHER TASTE COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL
CARBONATED SOD AS.
OR AS I WILL CALL S, ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T HAVE COKE?
CAN YOU CHECK?
NITRO!
MEANWHILE THIS FOOTAGE WENT pVIRAL OVER THE WEEKEND AND KEEP
IN MIND EVERYONE IS OKAY.
A TRACTOR TRAILER FULL OF MAIL DROVE OFF A MASSACHUSETTS
TURNPIKE RAMP AND INTO THE CHARLES RIVER."
AGAIN, THE DRIVER IS FINE-- WHICH IS INCREDIBLE.
NOT BECAUSE HE SURVIVED THAT CRASH, BUT BECAUSE HE SURVIVED
BEING IN THE CHARLES RIVER.
( LAUGHTER ) AT THIS POINT, IT'S LIKE 90%
PARLIAMENT CIGARETTE FILTERS AND RED SOX FAN VOMIT.
A MAN WAS HOSPITALIZED AFTER SHOVING A AA BATTERY INTO HIS
PENIS.
WORSE, PEE PUT IT IN BACKWARDS SO HIS PENIS WOULDN'T STARTED.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS.
BERNIE!
>> Stephen: NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
THANKS FOR BEING BACK.
>> WELL, CONGRATULATIONS TO BE PERFORMING IN FRONT OF HUMAN
BEINGS!
>> Stephen: I KNOW.
IT'S MUCH BETTER.
>> I KNOW.
>> Stephen: IT'S MUCH BETTER THAN JUST SHOUTING DOWN A PIPE.
NOW, SENATOR, YOU WERE INVITED, OF COURSE, AS A SENATOR TO BE AT
THE SPEECH TONIGHT.
BUT YOU-- >> I MUCH PREFER TO BE HERE.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: THIS IS NICER
THAN-- WE'RE HONORED, OBVIOUSLY, BUT THIS IS NICER THAN HANGING
OUT WITH YOUR COLLEAGUES?
>> YES.
>> Stephen: YEAH, YEAH?
>> IT IS.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
THE STATE OF THE UNION IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT, OBVIOUSLY.
YOU KNOW, THE EYES WILL OF THE NATION ARE ALWAYS ON WHAT THE
PRESIDENT, WHOEVER IT IS AT THAT TIME, IS GOING TO SAY.
BUT IT FEELS PARTICULARLY POWERFUL TONIGHT TO SEE BIDEN
DESCRIBE IN STARK TERMS THE FIGHT BETWEEN FREEDOM AND
TYRANNY, THE ONGOING BATTLE THAT IS NOT THEORETICAL AT THIS
POINT, BETWEEN DEMOCRACY AND AWE TALKERACY.
WHAT IS THE SSKS OF TONIGHT'S STATE OF UNION-- JUST TALK ABOUT
FOREIGN POLICY-- IN THE WAKE OF WHO'S HAPPENING IN UKRAINE.
>> Stephen: BUT IT CANNOT BE MORE TRAUMATIC.
WHAT PUTIN HAS DONE IS SO OUTRAGEOUS, IT IS SO HORRIBLE,
IT IS SO CRUEL, THAT IT IS UNSPEAKABLE.
AND THERE WAS A DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION.
WE WERE WORKING ON A DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION, AND, APPARENTLY,
THAT'S NOT WHAT HE WANTED.
HE WANTED TO CONQUER UKRAINE, AND WE'RE SEEING THE SUFFERING
THAT IS GOING ON THERE.
BUT IT BRINGS, I THINK, TO THE FORE, WHAT POLITICS AND
EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS ABOUT.
AND YOU THINK BACK, STEPHEN, JUST IN THE LAST YEAR OF WHAT
THIS COUNTRY HAS GONE THROUGH.
I THINK THE PRESIDENT MADE THE POINT THAT HE MADE IT WELL.
LET'S BE CLEAR: THIS IS THE MOST DIFFICULT MOMENT IN OUR
LIFETIMES.
AND IF YOU FEEL DEPRESSED, AND IF YOU FEEL ANXIOUS, AND YOU
FEEL CONFUSED YOU KNOW WHAT?
WELCOME TO THE CLUB.
THAT'S HOW ALL OF AMERICA FEELS RIGHT NOW.
YOU JUST THINK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED.
BEFORE BIDEN EVEN TOOK OFFICE, WE HAD AN INSURRECTION LED BY A
PRESIDENT WHO IS LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, TRYING TO
UNDERMINE AMERICAN DEMOCRACY.
WE'RE NOW DEALING WITH THE PANDEMIC, WHICH SOON WILL CLAIM
A MILLION OF OUR FELLOW AMERICANS AND MAKE SO MANY OTHER
PEOPLE SICK.
WE'RE DEALING WITH CLIMATE CHANGE.
SCIENTISTS TELL US WE'RE LOSING THE STRUGGLE FOR A PLANET TO
LEAVE TO OUR KIDS THAT WILL BE HEALTHY.
WE'RE DEALING WITH AN ECONOMY WHERE HALF OF OUR PEOPLE ARE
LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK.
PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD THE DYSFUNCTIONAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM
THAT WE HAVE.
AND THEN, PUTIN INVADES UKRAINE.
SO THIS IS JUST AN EXTRAORDINARY MOMENT IN OUR HISTORY, AND WE
HAVE GOT TO BE TOUGH.
WE CAN DO IT.
THE PRESIDENT IS RIGHT.
BUT WE HAVE TO THINK THIS THING THROUGH, NOT FALL FOR, YOU KNOW,
SIMPLISTIC SOLUTIONS.
BUT IF WE STAND DISPTH HAVE THE COURAGE TO DO THE RIGHT THING IN
THIS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT MOMENT IN HISTORY, WE CAN PREVAIL.
( APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: NOW I UNDERSTAND...
I'M GOING TO TAKE-- I'M GOING TO TACK A WILD GUESS THAT YOU'RE
NOT EUGE FANS WITH-- OF RUSSIAN OLIGARCH BILLIONAIRES, OKAY.
AND THE PRESIDENT SAID THEY'RE GOING TO GO AFTER THEM, THE
D.O.J. IS GOING TO GO AFTER THESE PEOPLE TO TAKE AWAY THEIR
ILL-GOTTEN BOOTY THAT THEY GOT FOR BUDDYING UP WITH PUTIN.
I ASSUME YOU APPROVE OF THAT.
>> ABSOLUTELY, LOOK -- >> Stephen: WHO UPSETS YOU
MORE, AMERICAN OLIGARCHS OR RUSSIAN OLIGARCHS?
>> WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT ( LAUGHTER ).
>> Stephen: I HOPE WE DO.
>> WE CAN START WITH THE RUSSIAN OLIGARCHS.
WE JUST PUT SOMETHING UP ON OUR TWITTER PAGE TODAY.
PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT JUST THAT PUTIN IS AN
AUTOCRAT.
IT'S NOT JUST THAT HE IS A DICTATOR TRYING TO UNDERMINE
WHAT HAD BEEN A SEMBLANCE OF DEMOCRACY IN RUSSIA.
THIS GUY-- WE DON'T KNOW.
THE TRUTH IS NOBODY REALLY KNOWS.
BUT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT HE'S THE RICHEST GUY IN THE WORLD, MAYBE
WORTH OVER $200 BILLION.
HE AND HIS OLIGARCHIC FRIENDS HAVE STOLEN THE PROPERTY OF THE
RUSSIAN PEOPLE, THE DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH IN RUSSIA IS
UNBELIEVABLE.
THEY HAVE IT ALL WHILE ORDINARY RUSSIANS ARE SUFFERING.
>> Stephen: AND APPARENTLY PROBABLY STOLE SOME OF THE
MILITARY BUDGET BECAUSE THAT IS ONE OF THE EXPLANATIONS WHY THE
MILITARY EQUIPMENT IS SO TERRIBLE OVER THERE.
SERIOUSLY.
THAT HAS BEEN SPECULATED.
>> NAVALNY, WHO YOU KNOW IS THIS INCREDIBLY BRAVE PERSON-- AND I
GOTTA SAY SOMETHING, AND I DON'T THINK IS GETTING ENOUGH
ATTENTION.
I HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT FOR THESE INCREDIBLY BRAVE PEOPLE, OFTEN
YOUNG PEOPLE, IN RUSSIA, WHO ARE OUT ON THE STREETS PROTESTING
AGAINST WHAT THEIR PRESIDENT IS DOING.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: KNOWING THAT IT'S-- IT'S BEEN CALLED ILLEGAL.
>> OH, -- >> Stephen: AND THEY WILL BE
ARRESTED.
>> THEY WILL BE ARRESTED.
GOD KNOWS WHAL HAPPEN TO THEM.
YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, CELEBRITIES WHO ARE PUTTING THEIR NAMES IN
OPPOSITION, WHOSE YEARS WILL BE DESTROYED.
SO I THINK THE POINT TO BE MADE IS THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE ARE NOT
OUR ENEMIES.
IT IS THEIR AUTOCRACY, AND THE CROOKS AND THE EVIL PEOPLE WHO
RUN THAT COUNTRY.
>> Stephen: WE HAVE TO TAKE A QUICK BREAK.
BUT WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS,
>> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY!
WELCOME BACK.
WE'RE HERE WITH SENATOR BERNIE SANDERS ON OUR LIVE "LATE
SHOW"."
ALL RIGHT, SENATOR, LET'S GET TO ECONOMICS.
TONIGHT, PRESIDENT BIDEN LAID OUT HIS ECONOMIC PLAN.
IT INCLUDED CUTTING THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
CUTTING THE COST OF CHILD CARE.
MAKING CORPORATIONS PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE.
IS IT-- IS IT FAIR TO SAY THAT BIDEN WAS FEELING THE BERN
TONIGHT?
YOU'RE AN EXPERT.
( APPLAUSE ) YOU'RE AN EXPERT ON THE BERN?
>> WELL, THESE ARE, YOU KNOW, BEFORE HE TOOK OFFICE, WE HAD A
TASK FORCE OF PEOPLE FROM MY CAMPAIGN AND HIS CAMPAIGN
WORKING TOGETHER ON A SET OF PROPOSALS.
AND MUCH OF WHAT HE TALKED ABOUT TONIGHT WAS JUST THAT.
AND HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT.
YOU KNOW, WE TALK ABOUT BEING A DIVIDED NATION, AND IN MANY WAYS
THAT'S TRUE.
BUT IN SOME WAYS, STEPHEN, WE ARE ABSOLUTELY UNITED.
EVERYBODY HATES THE DRUG COMPANIES.
AND EVERYBODY-- EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT IT IS ABSURD THAT WE IN
SOME CASES PAY 10 TIMES MORE FOR THE SAME EXACT DRUG SOLD IN
CANADA OR EUROPE THAT ONE OUT OF FOUR AMERICANS CANNOT AFFORD THE
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS THAT THEIR DOCTORS PRESCRIBE.
MEANWHILE, THE COMPANIES MAKE TENS OF BILLIONS IN PROFITS AND
GIVE HUGE COMPENSATION PACKAGES TO THEIR C.E.O.s.
AND I WANT EVERYBODY TO KNOW THIS-- WE ARE STRUGGLING RIGHT
NOW TO LOWER THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
THE DRUG COMPANIES HAVE SPENT AT LEAST $300 MILLION ON LOBBYISTS
ALONE.
THEY'VE GOT 1,500 LOBBYISTS IN WASHINGTON, D.C., TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE CONTINUE PAYING THE HIGHEST PRICES IN THE WORLD FOR
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
SO WHEN BIDEN SAYS WE'VE GOT TO LOWER THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS, THAT MEDICARE'S GOT TO NEGOTIATE PRICES WITH THE
PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY, AS THE V.A. NOW DOES, THE OVERWHELMING
MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SUPPORT HIM.
THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT
IT IS ABSURD THAT FAMILIES ARE PAYING $10,000, $15,000 A YEAR
FOR CHILD CARE.
WE'VE GOT TO LOWER THE COST OF CHILD CARE SUBSTANTIALLY.
I BELIEVE WE OUGHT TO EXPAND MEDICARE TO COVER DENTAL,
HEARING, AND EYEGLASSES.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: NOW, YOU-- YOU AND JOE BIDEN, OBVIOUSLY, HAVE
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES.
IF YOU WERE UP THERE AT THAT PODIUM TONIGHT, WHAT WOULD YOU
SAY THE STATE OF OUR UNION IS?
>> I WOULD SAY...
THAT WE'RE AN ANXIOUS COUNTRY RIGHT NOW.
WE HAVE GONE THROUGH SO MUCH.
BUT I THINK, AS HE INDICATED, THE STRENGTH OF OUR COUNTRY IS
ALWAYS THE PEOPLE.
AND OUR HISTORY IS THAT WHEN THINGS GET TOUGH, WE STAND UP
AND WE FIGHT BACK.
AND I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE PREPARED TO DO THAT RIGHT
NOW.
( APPLAUSE ) >> Stephen: BIDEN KEPT LOOKING
TO THE REPUBLICANS WHILE PROMOTING HIS LEGISLATIVE
AGENDA.
HE COULD PASS MUCH OF THAT AGENDA WITH ONLY DEMOCRATIC
SUPPORT.
SHOULD HE HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT MAN INCH AND SINEMA.
>> NO, WE'VE LOOKED AT THEM FOR A LONG TIME AND IT'S THE SAD
TRUTH.
WHAT HE DIDN'T GET INTO ENOUGH TONIGHT IS THE POWER OF MONEY IN
POLITICS.
LET'S BE VERY CLEAR-- WE HAVE A CORRUPT POLITICAL SYSTEM.
CANDIDATES AND MEMBERS OF BOTH THE DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN
PARTIES TAKE HUGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY FROM THE PHARMACEUTICAL
INDUSTRY, FROM THE FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY.
AND, UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE AT LEAST TWO UNITED STATES SENATORS
WHO ARE MORE INTERESTED IN GETTING CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS
FROM THE WEALTHY AND THE POWERFUL THAN DOING THE WORK OF
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).
IT'S A SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS.
BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT JUST-- IT'S NOT JUST MANCHIN AND
SINEMA.
YOU'VE GOT 50 REPUBLICANS, AND NOT ONE OF THEM IS PREPARED TO
STAND UP TO THE DRUG COMPANIES, NOT ONE OF THEM IS PREPARED TO
STAND UP TO THE FOSSIL FUEL INDUSTRY.
NOT ONE OF THEM, APPARENTLY, IS PREPARED TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR
CHILDREN HAVE QUALITY CHILD CARE AND WOMEN CAN GO BACK TO WORK.
SO YOU'VE GOT 50 REPUBLICANS WHO HAVE GOT TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE
IN THIS COMING ELECTION.
( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: WE HAVE TO TAKE ONE MORE BREAK.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE BERNIE SANDERS.
STICK AROUND.
>> Stephen: HEY, EVERYBODY!
BERNIE SANDERS AGAIN.
NOW, BIDEN TONIGHT, IN THE STATE OF THE UNION, HE PRAISED KETANJI
BROWN JACKSON.
THERE ARE, YOU KNOW, 50 DEMOCRATIC SENATORS, KAMALA
HARRIS IS THE 51st VOTE.
DO YOU THINK SHE WILL GO THROUGH, OR WILL SOME OF THE
SENATORS GO, "I DON'T KNOW.
AM I REALLY A DEMOCRAT?" >> WELL, I HOPE SHE WILL GO
THROUGH, AND I WILL DO EVERYTHING I CAN TO MAKE THAT
HAPPEN.
I THINK WE NEED PEOPLE ON THE SUPREME COURT-- AND SHE IS, I
THINK, WILL BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE-- WHO UNDERSTANDS THAT WE
NEED THE LAW TO WORK FOR ORDINARY PEOPLE AND NOT JUST
POWERFUL CORPORATE INTERESTS.
( APPLAUSE ) I WILL DO-- I THINK BIDEN MADE
THE RIGHT PICK.
I KNOW THERE WAS A LOT OF PRESSURE ON HIM TO GO IN OTHER
DIRECTIONS, BUT I THINK HE MADE THE RIGHT PICK.
>> AND STRONGLY SUPPORT HER.
( APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: BIDEN ENDED THE SPEECH TONIGHT, HE CONCLUDED BY
SAYING AS HARD AS THESE TIMES HAVE BEEN, I AM MORE OPTIMISTIC
ABOUT AMERICA TODAY THAN I HAVE BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE.
DO YOU SHARE HIS OPTIMISM?
>> NO.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: GET THAT DOWN.
JUST N-O?
THERE YOU GO.
>> THAT'S HIS PERSONALITY.
HE'S GENERALLY MORE OPTIMISTIC THAN I AM.
( LAUGHTER ) AND IT'S A GOOD THING.
( APPLAUSE ) HE LIKES PEOPLE MORE THAN I LIKE
PEOPLE.
YOU KNOW, ONE OF THOSE THINGS.
BUT I THINK, LOOK, THIS WILL BE THE MOMENT THAT TESTS US IN A
WAY WE HAVE NEVER BEEN TESTED IN OUR LIFETIME.
THE CRISES ARE THERE.
THEY ARE SOLVABLE.
AND THEY ARE SOLVABLE IF WE'RE PREPARED TO FOCUS ON THEM, NOT
GET DIVERTED, NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO GET US TO HATE EACH OTHER
BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF OUR SKIN OR WHERE WE WERE BORN.
BUT TO SAY, YOU KNOW, WHAT, FOR THE SAKE OF OUR KIDS AND
GRANDCHILDREN, WE'VE GOT TO DEAL WITH CLIMATE.
WE HAVE TO PROTECT AMERICAN DEMOCRACY FROM THOSE WHO ARE
TRYING TO UNDERMINE IT.
THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE AN ECONOMY THAT WORKS FOR ALL, AND NOT JUST
THE 1%.
AND THAT DESPITE WHAT PUTIN IS DOING RIGHT NOW, AND OUR NEED TO
DEFEND UKRAINE-- OF COURSE WE HAVE TO DO THAT IT'S GOAL HAS
GOT TO BE THAT SOME DAY THERE WILL BE PEACE ON THIS PLANET
RATHER THAN PEOPLE GOING AROUND KILLING EACH OTHER.
AND THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE.
( APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: WELL, I WOULD SAY-- YOU SAY YOU'RE NOT
OPTIMISTIC, YOU SAY YOU'RE NOT AS OPTIMISTIC AS JOE BIDEN, BUT
I WOULD SAY THE HOPE THAT THERE CAN BE A DAY THAT THERE'S PEACE
ON THIS PLANET IS AN OPTIMISTIC THING TO SAY.
>> IT IS.
I'LL TELL YOU THIS, STEPHEN-- AND IT HAS BEEN A GREAT HONOR
FOR ME TO HAVE RUN FOR PRESIDENT AND ANY ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY.
AND WHEN I STAND BEFORE OFTEN THOUSANDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE,
BLACK, LATINO, GAY, AND STRAIGHT, AND ASIAN-- AND YOU
SEE THEIR WILLINGNESS TO WORK TOGETHER TO TRANSFORM THIS
COUNTRY INTO A NATION OF JUSTICE.
THAT GIVES ME OPTIMISM.
THAT'S WHERE WHAT OPTIMISM I HAVE COMES FROM, IT'S FROM A
GENERATION THAT REALLY WANTS TO CHANGE THIS COUNTRY.
