Summary

Stephen Colbert tells his audience that the next season of “The Late Show” will be the last, and that the series will end in May 2026. A heat wave is baking most of the continental U.S., President Trump has a mysterious wound on his hand, and the MAGA world is not ready to forget about Jeffrey Epstein’s client list despite the president’s effort to distract them with a big announcement about Coca-Cola. California Senator Adam Schiff discusses his tumultuous relationship with President Trump and offers some choice words to describe how he feels about being the target of the president’s attacks.
