Tonight, stephen welcomes anthony scaramucci, bob odenkirk and musical guest Liam Gallagher, featuring jon batiste and stay human. And now, live on tape from the ed sullivan theater in new york city, its Stephen Colbert cheers and applause band playing how are ya cheers and applause good to see ya hey, whats up nice to see you thanks for being here band playing thank you, joe thank you so much, louis thank you, maddie please have a seat, youre too kind. Thanks you very much. Please, sit down. cheers and applause thanks so much. Welcome to the late show, everybody. Im your host Stephen Colbert. piano riff and its good to be with you. Thank you so much for being here. Boy, what a terrible weekend. Yeah. White supremacists from around the country carrying shields, clubs, body armor, and automatic weaponry descended on charlottesville, virginia a beautiful, Great American town to hold a rally they called, unite the right. The rally was a clear attempt to spark violence, and it did. One of these White Supremacists drove a car into a crowd of counterprotesters killing one young woman, heather heyer, and injuring 19 more. In addition, two Virginia State troopers, h. Jay cullen and berke bates, who were monitoring the rally from the air, were killed when their helicopter crashed. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families. And it is difficult to express how heartbreaking it is to see Something Like this happening in our country. But heres one thing thats not difficult to express nazis are bad. cheers and applause the k. K. K. . Im not a fan cheers and applause that wasnt hard. That was easy. I enjoyed saying it. laughter but on saturday, when the nation looked to our president to rebuke these hate groups, what he said was this we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence on many sides, on many sides. Stephen many sides . audience boos mr. President , this is terrorism, not your order at k. F. C. laughter id like the ten piece bucket with potato wedges, fries, mashed you know what . Many sides. Many sides. Coleslaw. cheers and applause piano riff how can you possibly say you condemn this in the strongest possible terms when you dont even name the groups responsible or say what they did . I strongly condemn youknow who, about youknowwhat, and, you know what, arent we all nazis if you think about it . laughter ive seen angrier yelp reviews. And they werent afraid to use the word nazi when describing how long their jalapeno poppers took. Heres the problem. This is the nut of whats most disturbing about this is that the president came out after a tragedy and, after he made his statement, reasonable people could not tell if was condemning nazis. And its not like trump is a shrinking violet. Hes known for criticizing things. If only the president was as mad about neonazis murdering people in the streets as hes been about hillary clinton, the new york times, cnn, joe scarborough, kristen stewart, the cast of hamilton, diet coke, nordstroms not selling his daughters clothes cheers and applause arnold schwarzenegger, the mayor of london, sadiq khan, me, the state of new hampshire, gold star families, Penn Jillettes las vegas show, the movie django unchained, meryl streep, and lady ghostbusters. laughter cheers and applause im not a fan. I dont understand. I just dont understand and while he wouldnt name the perpetrators, trump was very quick to say whos not to blame. Its been going on for a long time in our country. Not donald trump, not barack obama. Its been going on for a long, long time. Stephen yeah, obama and i both share some responsibility here, i mean, i embraced alt right racists, obama was black, we both contributed to the problem in our own way. Well, after the president blew the easiest condemnation of all time, trump took criticism from many sides, many sides. laughter applause piano riff many sides, i, i cheers and applause but he did get praise from one group neonazis. One prominent white power website wrote careful, guys. Careful, guys. He says he loves you now, but one day hes going to leave you for younger nazis. piano riff cheers and applause stephen thank you, jon. Thank you. Jon he might come around stephen of course, nazis werent the only ones praising donald trump. So was the klan. Like former k. K. K. Grand wizard and current taxidermy lizard, david duke. laughter seen here being racially superior. laughter thank you, jon. cheers and applause david duke was at charlottesville hateapalooza, and he said this we are determined to take our country back, were going to fulfill the promises of donald trump, and thats what we believed in, thats why we voted for donald trump. Stephen so the klan voted for donald trump. Oh, thats right. I remember they wore those special make America Great again hats. laughter cheers and applause i certainly hope were applauding for hats. laughter faced with this absolute p. R. Clustermunch, on sunday, the white house released this okay, good. Finally, someone willing to stand up, only we dont know who that person was because it was an unidentified white house spokesperson. laughter why why why unidentified . Look, of course, we dont support the nazis or the k. K. K. Youre not going to use my name are you . laughter i could get in trouble. laughter now, heres the thing. Some people didnt need their antinazi statements explained later. Like the mayor of charlottesville, who called the rally a cowardly parade of hatred, bigotry, racism, and intolerance, which, coincidentally, was also the theme of Steve Bannons senior prom. laughter applause under the sea. Jon under the sea. cheers and applause piano riff stephen also, you might recall that, on friday, the White Supremacists held a torch wielding march, only they were holding tiki torches. How lame. Thats like villagers coming after frankenstein holding scented candles. Ugh, ahh sandalwood vanilla bad argh laughter and, heres the deal, the company that makes tiki torches released a statement saying cheers and applause applause yes, give it up jon i like to see that. Stephen give it up i got to say, its pretty troubling when a backyard decoration comes out swinging stronger against nazis than the president of the United States. cheers and applause piano riff your move, lawn flamingos. laughter so, faced with getting morally dunked on by pretty much everybody, today, the president dug a trench, lowered the bar into it, and then slithered over it, somehow finding the courage to read a statement clearly written by somebody else racism is evil and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs. Including the k. K. K. , neonazis, White Supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as americans. Stephen was that so hard . Why did that take two days . Sir, how do you feel about nazis . Give me 48 hours to get back to you. laughter and trump tried to heal a news cycle by reminding us what we all have in common. We all salute the same great flag. Stephen no, we dont. laughter i have seen their flags. They cant even agree which one theyre going to salute. laughter cheers and applause okay . Dont mix us up. piano riff he didnt answer any questions there, but later he was pressed on the issue by Cnns Jim Acosta audience reacts stephen see how fast you condemned cnn, right off the top of your head with no script. Next time, like that. But with nazis. cheers and applause its that simple. He can do it. Hes very good at it. cheers and applause and heres another thing and i dont know where im finding the courage to say heres another thing i dont like about nazis. A lot of these nazis showed up to the rally wearing their uniform of khakis and white polo shirts. Because nothing strikes more fear into the hearts of your enemies than cosplaying as the assistant manager of a pool supply company. laughter piano riff look look, nazis, you dont get to turn khakis and white polo shirts into the official uniform of racism. Whats going to happen to guys who actually dress like that . People like me and jake from state farm . laughter do i have to throw out all my polo shirts now . Well, two can play at that game. If you get to ruin khakis and polo shirts, i say red baseball caps mean youre an ass bleep . cheers and applause we got a great show for you tonight. When we return, ill sit down with the mooch stick around cheers and applause [ ] thats the new rockstar.

Please welcome, anthony scaramucci. cheers and applause audience booing band playing anthony, come on up audience booing boo alright, get it out. Ill pretend those are mooches and not boos, stephen. Stephen well find out later. laughter now, thanks for being here. Its great to be here. Stephen is it . Yeah, im like arya stark, i took a list of all your comedy writers, my kill list, theyre in the back, i wrote them all down. Stephen youre comedically threatening to kill people who work for me . No, im kidding, im kidding. Stephen just curious. Im not allowed to joke anymore, ive learned that. laughter stephen listen, i just want to start by saying crosstalk no, no, no, no you dont get to stop my show, i stop my show. piano riff cheers and applause heres the thing, i want you to know, just for the record, this is on the record, this is being recorded right now. Thank you. Stephen thats a microphone youre wearing right now. Okay. I said no gotcha questions, i promised you no gotcha questions. But im going to lead with one. Fire away, go ahead. laughter wont be the first one. Stephen nazis, good or bad . Super bad, we know that, super bad. Stephen why do you think the president of the United States who you called the most media savvy person of our times, would shank a softball like that so hard when he should have just come out there and condemned the people who were there to start violence . Well, i think theres a couple of issues there. He said the all sides thing, i said stephen many sides, many sides. Many sides, he should have been way harsher on that. I said that. Stephen harsher on that, how . He should have condemned White Supremacism and neonazis. Stephen why do you think he didnt do that . Who stopped him from doing that . Well, i think at the end of the day, its the president , himself. Im not going to blame or point fingers at anybody, but i think he knows that. Stephen why not the president . Why not blame or point fingers at the president . If hes responsible but you were asking about someone else cheers and applause hold on a second. You were asking about someone else in the administration. Stephen okay. But, i think listen, it was late, im not going to say that it wasnt, but he did go to the white house today and he did make a statement which you just said, it was very declarative against it. Stephen the president had prepared remarks on saturday and prepared remarks today. Today he stuck to the script. Saturday, he went off script with his many sides, many sides. That was an adlib in the moment. Which one of them do you think he meant . The one thats written down or the one that he just comes up with in the moment . You guys have been super rough on me and super rough on him, but he is a compassionate person i know him as a compassionate person. audience boos thats all right, thats okay, thats my opinion. Stephen dont boo him for being the messenger. In what way is he a compassionate person . What is the evidence of that . Well, i mean, listen, its a super tough job. He made a step to give up which was a luxurious lifestyle stephen who cares . Really . Were supposed to feel bad for a guy who gave up his billionaire lifestyle to be the most powerful man in the world . I dont understand. cheers and applause but, by the way, that was touch and go, though. That was touch and go. Stephen what do you mean . What was touch and go . Well, i think when he started his campaign, i think it was unclear whether he was going to win or not. I mean, at the end of the day stephen thats for everybody, everybodys unclear on whether or not theyre going to win. I understand that. Stephen, its a huge sacrifice to do this stuff. You may not agree with me on that. Stephen well, it is a huge sacrifice. One of the things you dont get to do is complain about it. But, i havent heard him complain about it has he . cheers and applause stephen he has. He said, its a very hard job. He said, like, i could have had my previous lifestyle but thats him wearing his heart on his sleeve, though. audience member laughs thats him expressing himself. Thats his i think president obama, Michelle Obama also expressed you know, its a fish bowl, its a difficult job. Stephen sure. I think president bush said the same thing. Its not like its not a difficult job. Stephen but lets get back being the Communications Director is a difficult job. laughter stephen my original question was why do you think youre a guy who said that he hits freethrows with the top coat and he hits these putts ive seen him doing that, yeah. Stephen saying condemning White Supremacists and neonazis is a one inch putt. Why do you think he choked . Again, i think theres a its a almost a counterintuitive thing with him as he relates to the media. The media is expecting him to do something, he sometimes does the exact opposite. Stephen wait, just to thumb his nose at them . But, wait a second, youre saying he does something to do the opposite of what was expected of him . But some of that worked during the campaign. Stephen the campaigns over, now hes the president. I understand that, but hes also out there going out to see his base, hes flown to west virginia, youngstown, ohio, and other places. Stephen but his base isnt nazis, are you saying his base is nazis . No, no, of course not. Stephen im not saying that either, but lets be fair to him today, though. audience laughs he did condemn the nazis today. Stephen two days later does he order his spine on amazon prime . Why did it take so long . cheers and applause piano riff thats a good line, and i said yesterday that he should have been tougher on it. The problem is im probably the only person that would come from the Trump Administration or formerly from the Trump Administration and sit here. Stephen no, im grateful youre here. I dont know if hes going to come and sit here and answer that question for you, but only he really can answer that question. I said yesterday and i maintain that hes got to be tougher on that stuff if he wants his legislative agenda to pass. Hes got to move in a more moderate direction, hes got to appeal to people that are independents and moderates that possibly voted for him to help him ascend to the presidency. Stephen okay. Whats it like inside the white house . Small. Stephen small . Ive been in the building. laughter what i mean is, what is it like . From the outside, it looks like a dumpster fire. laughter what is it like cheers and applause you have rumors of infighting and that theres chaos in there. What was it like for the ten days you were in there . Did you get a sense of the chaos . Well, listen, i mean, its a tough place. There was a lot of infighting. You know, the front stabber was backstabber, i think you said that two weeks ago. I have a tendency to be very open and honest with people. What ends up happening there though is people dont do that. What they do is they go behind each others backs, and they leak things to the press and they say nasty things about each other to try and destabilize them or to influence the president s judgment of them, and so, whatever you think about me, i was pretty open about how i felt about people laughter very open. Stephen very open. And i will tell you that the way a good culture works, ive run two reasonably successful organizations, you got to have some level of esprit de corps and it didnt start that way. Stephen whats going on in this photo right here . Thats a rough photo, right . Stephen there you are. This is you over here, holding your thumbs in your belt like a gunslinger, and this is reince priebus. Yeah. Stephen what is going on . Were you brought in just to get rid of him . I dont want to say that stephen . And sean spicer . I dont want to say it that way. Stephen was it a part of your job . I would say stephen say it like the mooch, say it like the mooch. audience reacts well, there was no all right, so the stephen give me some mooch, give me some mooch here. So the mooch of long island would say theres no love lost there, obviously, look at the picture. Stephen sure, exactly. And so, that was caught by a wall street journal photographer, before the president did which was a great interview with the wall street journal. The weird thing about my relationship with reince is we were pretty good friends when i was a political donor writing checks to the r. N. C. But once i became part of the administration, or was about to enter the administration, for whatever reason, it was a little more adversarial. Stephen now, you thought he was one of the leakers. I did. Stephen hes gone, right . Whos leaking now . Is it steve bannon . Well, ive said that. Stephen say it now, say it to these people. Listen, i have been pretty open about that. Stephen is steve bannon a leaker . I said he was, and, obviously, he got caught on tape saying he was, so i have no problem saying that. Stephen okay. Is he going to be gone in a week . Thats up to the president. Stephen but what do think . What does the mooch think . If it was up to me, he would be gone, but its not up to me. Stephen you said hes trying to suck his own bleep . cheers and applause are you allowed to say that . Stephen yeah, its cool. They said its cool. They said i could say it tonight. Alright, mom, im sorry i said that, it got picked up on a recording line, sorry about that. Stephen i said, sock. I said, sock. Thats what was behind the bleep. Although he did autograph one of those cartoons for you so im bringing that home. Stephen heres the deal. Are you telling us that you never even tried . laughter cheers and applause because, as an adult male it does not pass the smell test. Hold on a second. Eddie murphy said that if you could do that he would never leave the house, remember when he said that. No, im not capable of doing it, lets just put it that way. Stephen okay, im not saying capable, no one said he succeeded. No, hes probably not capable of it either. Maybe if hes doing hot yoga in there or something, i dont know. laughter stephen well, we got to take a little bit of a break. Well be right back with more anthony scaramucci.

Really brought my mouth. To the next level. cheers and applause stephen hey everybody, were back with former white house Communications Director anthony scaramucci. Mooch, david duke was at this rally, in charlottesville. He said that they want to fulfill the promises of donald trump, that is why they, the klan, voted for donald trump. Mmhmm. Stephen are there elements of White Supremacy within the white house right now . No. Stephen is steve bannon a white supremacist . Again, i dont think hes a white supremacist. Ive never asked him if hes a white supremacist. What i dont like though is the toleration of it. Its something that should be completely and totally intolerated. cheers and applause stephen okay. So for me, you have to understand most people in this audience and perhaps your family and definitely my family has experienced some level of discrimination, so i find it disgusting and reprehensible and i will renounce it every living day of my life. Stephen do you feel burned by your experience at the white house . You were there for ten days no, no, no, absolutely not. Stephen you were extremely loyal to the president. Even at this point after you were shown the door as it were, do you feel burned or backstabbed . Not at all. Stephen really . Well, let me put it this way, when you take a job like that, stephen, you know that your Expiration Date is coming. I didnt think i was going to last too long but i thought id last longer than like a carton of milk. laughter stephen you were like a bag of raw shrimp. You bought your eggs and you were cooking them the day i got fired, it was totally fine, right . laughter my point is that you take that job recognizing that youre serving at the behest and the duty of the president of the United States, and if he doesnt want you there anymore, then youve got to respectfully leave and leave with honor. I made a lot of mistakes, i tried to own up to those mistakes. But let me tell you, something, okay . You know this, you can just feel this from me, im an honest person. Stephen wait a second, dont use me as a character witness for you. I dont know. Ive met you five minutes ago, what are you talking about . laughter yeah, the mooch, ill sign a loan for him, what are you talking about . Hey, im always good with loans. Im like the lannisters that way, im aryan stark with the comedy writers, im like the lannisters the other way. Stephen the mooch always pays his debt, is that what youre saying . laughter people that know me know that im a straightup person. Stephen what would you do differently if you could go back . I really thought about that, and i would say absolutely nothing and im going to tell you why. Because what you dont want to do is you dont want to morph or change yourself, you just want to be yourself, and if the good lord puts you in a direction or a stream where its going the right way, great things will happen. And if it doesnt happen, im totally okay with it, im totally cool with it. I mean, this guy has been hitting me for three straight weeks and im sitting here, right . So, its fine. Stephen yeah. At the end of the day, you got to accept what your fate is, and you got to do it without any bitterness and you got to stay humble. Stephen well, thank you for being here. Its a great honor. Stephen would you recommend to other exmembers of the Trump Administration to come on the show . Was it a nice enough experience for you . I think its been great. I would recommend to the president to come. cheers and applause stephen i understand you have something for me. So i got gifts for stephen, okay . This is applause stephen can we get a shot of this . Let the man explain. piano riff cheers and applause let the man explain. Hold on, let the man explain. Listen, after he hit me so hard for three weeks, he thought i was going to stab him with that, thats why its in the case the hermetically sealed case. Stephen no, its lovely. Anthony scaramucci, everybody well be right back with bob odenkirk stick around cheers and applause band playing irreplaceable by beyonce es shopping super easy.

Better get ready to be famous albuquerque i can make you a tv star for a price you can afford. Call me, saul goodman, the world needs to know about you and your business call me now cheers and applause guy at the station said hes never seen so many star webs in a row. Its never been done. Saul goodman. Yeah, its like sall good, man. The guy has a lot of energy. Yeah, its just a name. Stephen please welcome bob odenkirk cheers and applause band playing band playing cheers and applause stephen hey. cheers and applause nice to see you, again. Saul goodman, who, you know, you obviously played for many years. Yes. Stephen fasttalking hes a hustler. Yes, he is. Hes the opposite of me. Somebody once asked me, if i saw saul goodman in a room would i want to hang out with him . And, i said, no way. I wouldnt go near that guy. Stephen how about this . Would you be able to identify saul goodman . Oh, yeah, his hands would be moving and, you know, hed have a lot of energy and hed spin everything, you know, a certain way. You know, that kind of activity. I dont know if youve ever seen it. laughter stephen i think i just talked to it for like 20 minutes, actually. cheers and applause saul goodman, thats not the first lawyer youve played, i understand. When i was a little kid well, a younger kid i did pretend to be a lawyer once, yes. Stephen how old were you when you pretended . 15. Stephen 15 . Yes, my friend pete had used the gas station as a short cut, and stephen to get around traffic or something . Yes, and he had to go to court. A policeman saw that. So i showed up, and i had cards and i wore a suit and i said, im his lawyer, and handed out the cards. Stephen you said bob odenkirk, lawyer . I said bob odenkirk, lawyer, and then they told me to sit down and shut up. And then my friend called the judge your highness. laughter he did not get off with it. He did not get away with it. Stephen what was your endgame . What were you hoping to make happen . No endgame. I thought i would have fun at my friends expense. laughter this is what comedy is. This is why we do it. Stephen okay. So you were literally just i was just having a laugh, and he was in pain. laughter stephen now, i first got to know you back at second city in chicago or saw you i didnt even know you back then. I saw you at second city. Yes. Stephen so i know you as a comedian, you know. Yeah. Stephen you were mr. Show. But now youre mr. Drama, nominated again. Im very serious. Stephen youre very serious. applause is there have you, like youre, like, a renowned dramatic actor. No, really, you are. You get nominated three times for doing drama. You are a renowned dramatic actor. Do you have a different process . Is one harder than the other . I learned a few things. I feel like drama is harder than comedy. With comedy you got jokes and if you feel good about the jokes and you did them in a room with friends and they got a laugh, well you feel pretty confident theyll get a laugh. Stephen yeah, you know when comedys working, because people make a noise. With drama, youre working with this rich story, written by peter gould and vince gilligan, the head writers of Better Call Saul and people from breaking bad, you know, its a very rich story and layered. You get in the middle of a season of that kind of story and youre just kind of hoping the audience can follow where its all going, and that it sort of resonates with them the way youre playing it. So im always amazed. I feel very lost in the middle of doing that job, compared to comedy. Also, i learned, in drama, its not good to kind of give advice to your other actors, where, in comedy, people are more, like, hey, ive got a line for you and if its funny, the person is like, thank you, awesome i was doing fargo with a great actor and a good friend martin freeman, and we had a scene together, and i was like, oh, i have an idea for him. Umm, martin, you know what . Maybe your character is like a little envious of me. I mean, secretly. And thats why hes resentful. And he just looks at me. He goes, never tell me how to act again. laughter stephen with an english accent, actually. I loved it so much. It killed me. laughter stephen congratulations on your emmy nomination. Thanks. Stephen thats a third time. Obviously, big deal. applause hey, its an honor seriously, its an honor just to be nominated in such an Amazing Group of actors. Stephen and it seems like youre really gunning for a win this year, you know. I dont really know what you mean by that. Im just doing the regular interviews. But, i dont know, thats not weird. Stephen some people are pointing out, that, to ensure victory, your Emmy Campaign has been acting a little unethically. Thats crazy who are these some people . Id like to have names. Stephen well, for example, me and my staff. In fact, we obtained a videotape of your son. Bob odenkirk, jr. . Stephen yeah. No, he is a highquality boy. Stephen well the video shows bob odenkirk, jr. Taking a meeting that he shouldnt have taken. Should we just watch it . Should we just watch the video . Yeah, i would like to see this, yes let me see it stephen jim . Hey, comrades all right how you doing . Good to see ya thanks for coming by the odenkirk tower. Im bobby odenkirk, jr. Im my daddys Emmy Campaign strategist. So, you know, hes a good man, my dad. Oh, there he is muah gotta kiss the picture. Now, were here to talk about what you can do for me to help my daddy win at the emmys. Maybe we could do a little collusion here, maybe a few major crimes, if you dont mind. laughter first off, you guys got any dirt on my daddys emmy competition . Emmys . Why you talk to us about this . Hey, have yourself an odenkirk cheese ball. Theyre the number one cheese balls in this building right now at this point. Tell me you dont have some dirt on this guy, kevin spacey, huh . He hasnt deleted any emails recently . How about this guy, riz ahmed, is he secretly not a muslim, huh . Tmz would like to know, i think. This is ridiculous, we were told this would be about the russian adoption. Okay, adoption hey, how about an odenkirk porkchop . Theyre the number one porkchop in this room right now ive got some very nice boys who i would like adopted to russia. Hey, how about this little fellow . Its milosh, i think. Oh, this is us they reinvented the family drama they reinvented the family drama, there you go take these boys, take them now back to russia, give em a little bit of love, give em a little bit of pride, some confidence, make em feel a sense of selfworth so they dont end up trying to win the love of a distant father by meeting a bunch of dirty russian mobsters in a broken down motel room. cheers you are making me uncomfortable, please stop. Stephen bob, that footage is incredibly cheers and applause stephen bob, that footage is incredibly damning and i really think that more fake news from Stephen Colbert hashtag lying hashtag sad hashtag odenkirk base growing everyday stephen all right, i apologize. Thank you. Stephen thats on me. You owe me that. Stephen good luck at the emmys. Thank you, friend.
