Attorney General Merrick Garland has made it clear he intends to hold the former president responsible for any crimes related to the insurrection, and recent polling shows a majority of Democrat voters are hoping the current president won’t run again in 2024. Next, Stephen finds it hard to believe that St. Vincent has never been invited to play the National Anthem for her hometown team, the Dallas Cowboys, so he sends this open letter to the team to encourage them to right this wrong. And please keep an eye out for Amanda Seyfried’s missing tortoise, who escaped from his theme-park-like enclosure at her upstate New York farm recently.

Former almost-president Al Gore issued a stark warning about the consequences of not acting to clean up the Earth’s atmosphere, and Republican Senator Josh Hawley made a laughable claim at a meeting of conservatives last weekend.  Maryland Congressman Jamie Raskin returns to The Late Show for a three part interview that begins with a reminder that autocrats and dictators around the world are working together to subvert democratic institutions and ideals, and likens the former president to a mafia boss, who often succeeds at evading prosecution but could be taken down by the Department of Justice and the investigative work of the Jan 6 Committee.
