I lived through Watergate (something these reporters did not live through), and I don't remember this level of disarray ever in the Republican Party.

I love that her books are arranged by color and he has so many books that there is a nearly 3-foot stack!

We have to start prosecuting the mouthpieces who struck the match, and not just sweep up the burnt matchsticks on the ground. Nailing the creeps who did the window smashing means nothing if the guy handing out bricks isn't taken out of the picture. 'Cause they always seem to find more bricks.

Batiste: Fancy PIANO technique
Also Batiste: Yes, INDEED!!

[GingerGingie]

Off topic, but I'm in LOVE with Palmer's wallpaper!

[willowsloughdx]

"Thanks for having us" said in perfect tandem.

[Krackonis]

As someone in the world watching from the outside. WHY ARE YOU NOT ARRESTING THESE CRIMINALS?

[ericjohnson]

"Keeping the former president happy..." like a non-parent trying to watch a two year old throw a tantrum, and trying to manage the whole situation... ineffectively. [A parent would just send the two year old to time out...]
Sort of like Dr. Frankenstein trying to manage the monster he created.

What I really want to know is... what's that Grateful Deadish skull-and-roses-on-a-boat looking album cover over Sherman's shoulder?

[studiosandi]

Lol the punch bowl is all on punching these days😄

[davidarchibald]

Jake Sherman showing some Grateful Dead love!

[crazywayne]

You should have asked them about Punchbow v Punchbowl.
It's the kind of question punchbowl news would ask.

[Tbaum]

💀🌹Deadhead alert: behind Jake Sherman is a Grateful Dead 4xLP record set from 4/27/77 Capitol Theater, Passaic NJ. Great Scarlet>Fire and a 17min Wharf Rat

[moogman]

Oops almost thought this was real news show.

[tarundeeposahan]

Hey Captain Colbert, talk about farmer's protest in India.

[chrismorris]

not to belittle the point but did anyone else picture her drunkenly punching a punch bowl at a party when she made the punch bowl joke

[iiWNMii]

Kazoo and coffee mug, this guitarist has the best gig in the business.

I'd like to know when they're auditioning next time.

[HansHenderson]

Is that a Grateful Dead skull w/ roses graphic behind him on the right?

[misujerr]

Nice Dead poster that Sherman has behind him! (I woulda never guessed he was one of us;) (Oh! Ship of Fools??)
