Welcome to the report, audience chanting stephen oh, yeah, beautiful, thank you so much. Thank you so much, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for joining us, in here, out there, all around the world. All the satellites. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much. Folks, weve got lots of news to get to. Weve got to do it. Thank you very much. Folks, lots of news to get to but first i have got to send a the colbert report shoutout audience member yells to my African American viewer or viewers. laughter once again in february, folks which, of course, is black History Month but did you know that its also childrens dental health month . laughter that means its an important month for African Americans. Children with teeth. But especially African American children with teeth. cheers and applause the point is, kids, great African American leaders like rosa parks and Martin Luther king want you to floss. laughter okay . Thats what they fought for. And thanks to their sacrifice, you can floss on any seat in the bus you choose. Because theres only one thing worse than racism and thats racism with gingivitis. laughter yet another camera, yet another emotional state. Nation, my blood is boiling. And it better stop soon because i like my veins al dente. laughter folks, baseless attacks continue to be levied against Chris Christie, my personal friend that i look forward to meeting one day. laughter the governor put the bridge gate nonscandal to bet weeks ago. Well, guess what . Somebody woke it up, folks, and its cranky as hell. Explosive new allegations about Chris Christie. Bombshell new allegations. A former new Jersey Transportation official who once worked for Chris Christie is making new claims tonight suggesting the governor lied about when he knew of the g. W. Bridge lane closure. The lawyer for David Wildstein writes evidence exists tying mr. Christie to having knowledge of the lane closures. Stephen evidence exists. Ooh laughter it exists and should evidence ever be presented shaking in my boots would occur. laughter folks, this is just the governors word against David Wildsteins and, yes, they were High School Classmates and, yes, christie created a job at the Port Authority to appoint wildstein to, but its not like they were close, right, sghorn david and i were not friend in high school. We were not even acquaintances in high school. I was the class president and athlete, i dont know what david was doing. laughter audience reacts yes. Yes. Christie didnt know what wildstein was doing at that time. I mean, it could have been anyones head he was holding down in the toilet laughter but, folks, it doesnt matter now because this past weekend the governor destroyed wildsteins reputation by releasing a memo filled with five damning revelations. David wildstein will do and say anything to save David Wildstein. Ouch. He had a controversial tenure at mayor of livingston. Ooh he was an anonymous blogger. Wow folks, that is a damning list. And it doesnt even mention the troubling rumors that wildstein is a known associate of scandalplagued governor Chris Christie. laughter and applause but, folks, all of that cheers and applause all of this all of this just pales when compared to the darkest revelation that wildstein was publicly accused by his High School Social studies teacher of Deceptive Behavior audience reacts oh, yeah. Folks, i shudder to think what that could mean. Did he improperly footnote a term paper . Did he forge his moms signature for a field trip to colonial williamsberg . Did he cover his cross with a notebook while giving oral reports or, upon hearing the words oral reports . And, again, again, folks, these accusations are coming from the highest level a social studies teacher now, unfortunately, David Wildsteins social studies teacher was unavailable for comment because he is deceased. audience reacts was it. Murder . laughter and applause the no, it was natural causes. laughter but i was able to contact one person who knows both christie and wildstein. Please welcome their first grade teacher mrs. Ludemeyer. Mrs. Ludemeyer, thank you so much for joining me today. Thank you so much. cheers and applause now mrs. Ludemeyer, thank you so much for having the courage to speak with me today. I hear you have some damaging revelations about what David Wildstein was like as a first grader. Yes, stephen. He was an untrustworthy little ruffian. One time he said he needed to tink but once he was in the bathroom he just played with the soap dispenser. Stephen okay, did you also teach Chris Christie . Christopher . laughs oh, he was a joy kids like chrisy are why i teach definitely president ial material. A born lead we are executive experience. laughter and applause mrs. Ludemeyer, youre reading off of note cards. Did Chris Christies people get to you . Yes.

Stephen do you think many gay people will make the right decision and stop being gay . laughter translated i dont know, in our experience it just turns them on even more. laughter and applause stephen ive heard that. Ive heard that. translated and theres also a danger of a new law being passed against gay extremism. Stephen what is gay extremism . translated in the eyes of our government, it probably just means being public about being gay. Stephen so its not like gay terrorism. laughter like no glitter bombing or anything like that . translated we did Something Like that, actually, once. We kissed a female policewoman. This was even before pussy riot, we managed to kiss about 40 of them. laughter stephen and how did that go over . translated it actually was very funny. That would often take us to the side and say why do you have to do this pub n public . Stephen oh, so they were down with it, just on the d. L. . Listen, id like to hear more about that.

Well im not surprised youre touring american prisons because my understanding is theyre just wonderful here. laughter translated actually, i think its great that there are a lot of problems. We look longed at some prisons in the netherlands and they were wonderful but theres such a giant gap between their wonderful prisons and our terrible prisons.
