Eh, you get used to it (We did?)

rich people's rocket money (taking bribes without using their hands)

"Officials from the soccer organization FIFA, which decides which cities get to host the World Cup, are accused of accepting bribes when making their decision. Of course the toughest part for the soccer officials was taking bribes without using their hands." –Jimmy Fallon

Luckily for us, now he wants to be in charge of people (No, we’re still here)

New Yorkers are gonna be so excited to finally try marijuana (I get excited about scoreless ties)


November 2022

“This season on top of the regular seasonal cold, I am suffering from World Cup fever, symptoms include I’m a little ache-y and I get excited about scoreless ties.” —Stephen Colbert

“The host nation to the World Cup is Qatar, a desert country with an oppressive regime and a terrible human rights record where homosexuality is illegal, in other words it’s like if Ron Desantis had oil.” —Stephen Colbert

“To protest this, seven countries saw their captains trying to wear rainbow armbands that said one love. In response, Fifa said it would give a yellow card to anyone doing this as well as ordering Belgium to remove the word love from their shirts. They’re banning love and rainbows. Basically Fifa is the bad guy in a Care Bears movie.” —Stephen Colbert

“This week also saw the Iranian team stay silent during the national anthem to protest the country’s violent and misogynist regime. It was incredibly brave or they forgot the words.” —Stephen Colbert

“The first licences for recreational marijuana have also finally been produced in New York. New Yorkers are gonna be so excited to finally try marijuana.” —Stephen Colbert

I’m pretty sure if you spend 17 days in Jersey, you become an honorary member of the E Street Band (National Girlfriends Day)

Today was National Girlfriends Day, so don't forget to send her $130,000. --Seth Meyers


According to The Associated Press, President Trump will take a 17-day vacation starting tomorrow at his golf club in New Jersey. Seventeen days in New Jersey doesn’t sound like a vacation, it sounds like an episode of “I Survived.” That’s more days than Chris Christie has spent in New Jersey. I’m pretty sure if you spend 17 days in Jersey, you become an honorary member of the E Street Band. –Seth Meyers

How many of you folks have ever been bitten by a Uruguayan? (It's just that exciting, ladies and gentlemen)


June 2014

"I am excited about the World Cup and the U.S. soccer team. But I will admit there are nuances to the game that are lost on me. For example, the United States has won one game, tied one game. They play Germany, and if they tie Germany 0-0, they advance to the finals. It's just that exciting, ladies and gentlemen." –David Letterman


"During the World Cup, Uruguay is playing Italy and one of their players bites an Italian player. How many of you folks have ever been bitten by a Uruguayan?" –David Letterman


"FIFA, the world soccer governing body, says the guy who did the biting has to wear one of those dog cones for the rest of the tournament." –David Letterman


"Italy was eliminated from the World Cup. Italians were running through the streets waving their hands around, screaming at each other. Then they heard about the World Cup." –Craig Ferguson

The battle of ideologies ("Eh, you get used to it," said the Knicks)

It’s not just Trump’s cabinet that’s been riddled by scandal. He doled out tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations, slashed environmental regulations, and gutted consumer protections. And, of course, he's been personally profiting off the presidency, himself. The Washington Post reports that lobbyists representing the Saudi government paid for an estimated 500 rooms at President Trump's D.C. hotel in the months after his election. The total bill for those trips -- more than $270,000. T-Mobile executives booked dozens of nights at the Trump hotel last year once their merger needed Trump administration approval. NBC news has obtained documents showing that Trump International Hotel billed the secret service $215,000 for the period between September 2016 and February 2018. President Trump's golf habit has cost the American people some $102 million and counting. So not only has the presidency allowed Trump to commit indictable offenses with impunity, it's also allowed him to personally profit off the presidency. I wouldn't be surprised if he just started selling off pieces of the oval office on Craigslist. Meyers as Trump, "Good desk made of wood. Has light ketchup stains." --Seth Meyers
