I love this section of the paper. However, it would be great to see more content from Lily Singh. Perhaps she is not as political, but how about mixing it up a little bit? And then, if you are not keeping to daily late night, or shows, through in John Oliver, Hasan Minaj, and Samantha Bee.

Someone got to Sondland, and it wasn’t his lawyer. It was probably Barr. Sondland said he remembers there was quid quo pro, but he said Donald Trump didn’t know about it. That’s like saying he had no idea what his hand puppet was doing or saying. In another few days either Sondland will be back in the House saying actually Trump DID demand quid pro quo, or Sondland will be found at the bottom of a river. Either way, he’ll get a pardon.

Love the hired actor on the frontlines of the Trump rally checking his watch, his shoes, and scanning the room for the exits. I hear ya, fella. We've all been there at this point.

And trump suddenly doesn't remember meeting either Sondland OR Lev Parnas, amazing! "I get pictures taken with everyone in America, how can I remember? Also, don't forget I have probably the greatest memory of all time, and I'm a stable genius, but can't remember anyone I sat directly next to at several meetings, etc. Never met the guy, even if I bragged about knowing him only last week. Rudy who?? Look! A Democrat!" Pathetic mob boss-wanna be, played like a puppet by Putin, desperate for inclusion in the oligarch club, an aging playboy serial liar who can't comprehend loyalty. A hater who can't stand strong women or black people, and couldn't recite the pledge of Allegiance without a teleprompter. BoneSpurs, while trashing John McCain! A greedy real estate developer whose administration assures us he's 'still in the hospitality business', but totally immune to any bribery/flattery/concessions. Using the military to prop up his nearly bankrupt stupid investments. Ugh, I'm so thankful for comedians who can make me laugh, like America does, at despot behavior.

That has got to be the most accurate bio of Trump yet! Well done!

Trump Jr. wrote a book???!!! It would be perfect to line my cat's litter box with it. I can hear my cat already when he looks down at the box and sees the book and says "Now that is redundant."

As Nancy said, Colbert is a patriot. Sondland, like Devos, got his job only because he "donated" money to Trump's campaign.

Sondland's enlightenment came after Lev Parnas decided to cooperate with the investigators?
