Stephen lets out a big “WOO” to celebrate the news that Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson has been confirmed to the United States Supreme Court. Elsewhere in Washington, a coronavirus outbreak is washing over America’s politicians including Speaker Nancy Pelosi who was in close proximity to President Biden on Tuesday. Next, updates from beyond our world: including news about a newly-discovered star with a name borrowed from “The Lord of the Rings,” and an explosive report on unexplained alien phenomena from our buddy Bret Baier at Fox News. And Pete Holmes, star of “How We Roll” on CBS, returns to The Late Show for the first time in three years and tells Stephen how his friends Ben & Jerry helped him cope during the long months of quarantine. Then, author and poet Elizabeth Alexander joins Stephen to talk about the content and goals of her new book, “The Trayvon Generation,” which features works of art inspired by the struggle against racism.
