Late-Night Laughs: Colbert on Special Counsel’s Biden Analysis and Royal Family Rumors

Stephen Colbert tackled the humorous contradictions in special counsel Robert Hur’s findings on President Biden and dove into the swirling rumors around Prince William’s marriage on his latest “Late Show” segment. Addressing Hur’s congressional appearance, Colbert highlighted the peculiar nature of Hur’s critique on Biden, labeling him a “sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.” Colbert humorously questioned Hur’s unexpected foray into cognitive assessments, likening it to an odd doctor’s diagnosis emphasizing one’s appearance over health.

Further lightening the mood, Colbert delved into the GOP’s intense questioning of Hur, mocking their speculative queries about Biden’s potential misdeeds in “alternate timelines.” He also poked fun at the confusing juxtaposition between Hur’s public report and his private praises of Biden’s “photographic understanding,” suggesting a check on Hur’s memory might be in order.

Switching gears to the British royal family, Colbert couldn’t resist commenting on the recent buzz around Kate Middleton’s absence and the ensuing scandalous rumors of Prince William’s alleged affair. With his trademark wit, Colbert empathized with Middleton before eagerly jumping into the salacious details. He mocked William’s supposed dismissive reaction to the accusations with a fictional British quip, bringing a lighthearted take on a story that has captivated royal watchers and tabloid readers alike.
