Colbert. With samantha bee, and gilian jacobs. Live from new york city, its Stephen Colbert stephen thank you very much hey whats going on my friends . Welcome to the late show everybody, im your host, stephen col better. I am feeling blessed tonight, thanks to one man White House Communications director and guy ordering a martini at the bowling alley, anthony scaramucci. The mooch the mooch i was worried when sean spicer left, that the Communications Office of the whoirs would lose some flavah. Little did i know that he was going to be placed by a guy who serves up very spicy quotes. We played this last night, but i just want seconds. What i dont like about washington is, people do not let you know how they feel. Theyre very nice to your face, and then they take a shiv or a machete and they stab it in your back. I dont like it. Im a wall street guy, and im more of a front stabbing person. Stephen yeah, he would never stab someone in the book. Book mountain thats rude. A gentleman stabs somebody from the front so you can watch the life drain out of their eyes. Keep em open, keep em open. Trump hired scaramucci to get rid of the white house leakers. But dont call him a hitman. Hes just a guy who was contracted to whack squealers by a powerful don. And the latest leak that has the moochs fusilli in a twist occurred yesterday when politico published scaramuccis Financial Disclosure form revealing that he has assets worth as much as 85 million. How humiliating. Yeah. Now everyone knows hes the poorest person working at the white house. cheering and applause stephen now as much thats got to hurt. As much as ive enjoyed what scaramucci said one week on his job, we got an incredible taste of unfiltered mooch today, when new yorker reporter ryan lizza published details of a conversation he had with scaramucci last night. Im going to read you some of the quotes, but be warned, if you are put off by foul language, the mooch thinks you should mooch yourself in the head. I want to give a quick warning to the cbs censors you guys are going to have to break out the emergency extra bleeps for this one. But its not my fault. Im just communicating to you the actual words of the Communications Director of the white house. The one in washington heres how it started lizza reported yesterday about trumps dinner with scaramucci, sean hannity and some other guys. The mooch called up lizza to try to get the name of who leaked about the dinner, but lizza protected his source. So the mooch said, okay, im going to fire every one of them, and then you havent protected anybody, so the entire place will be fired over the next two weeks. Mooch, you do realize that if hes still not going to give you the names. And if you do fire everybody, you have to replace everybody with people who now know theyre working for a guy who would just fire everybody . The mooch was pretty sure he knew who the leaker was chief of staff Reince Priebus, who he described as a bleep paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac. The guy guys paranoid, okay . He thinks his own Communications Director is trying to stab him in the back. And again, front stab. Front stab, hold still, hold still keep em open i want to see then the mooch did the best priebus impression. Lizza writes, he channeled priebus as he spoke. Let me leak the bleep thing and see if i can bleep block these people the way i bleep blocked scaramucci for six months. Oh please, mooch, i dont think anybody could block you from being a bleep and his words, not mine cheering and applause we love you. Stephen and the mooch was feeling a little hurt about how people have been treating him at his new job. Quote ive asked people not to leak things for a period of time and give me a honeymoon period. They wont do it. Hey everyone, im anthony scaramucci, im a frontstabber, im here to fire everyone, now be nice to me. Okay, be a little bit nice to me, okay . Im somebodys little boy applause stephen and the mooch says he was doing this for all the right reasons. Im not trying to build my own brand off the bleep strength of the president. Im here to serve the country. And added, im not steve bannon, im not trying to suck my own bleep . [ audience screams ] applause stephen look, if bannon could do that, he would never leave the white house. Though i got to say, we never see him ever anymore. Good for you, steve but all good baddabings must come to an end, because scaramucci signed off by saying of priebus, yeah, let me go, though, because ive got to start tweeting some bleep to make this guy crazy. Adding, can we make this off the record . No . Okay. Mooch out. laughter stephen hey, ho so immediately after that he gets off the phone i got to tweet some stuff to make this guy crazy. Then scaramucci tweeted in light of the leak of my Financial Disclosure info which is a felony i will be contacting f. B. I. And the thejusticedepartment. Hashtagswamp, reince45. Hang on hang on he just tagd reince 45 . That means either the mooch just publicly accused white house chief of staff Reince Priebus of a felony, or there are 44 other reinces on twitter. I find that hard to believe. Yes cheering and applause number 45, number 45. Stephen but hold on a second, a felony . Your Financial Disclosure forms are publicly Available Upon request. Thats disclose part of disclosure. Youre thinking of financial ixnay on the oneymay forms. How do you not know that . You went to harvard law school. What did you study there . A vhs copy of my cousin vinny . Stephen hey hey what . Hey hey scaramucci woke up with a raging moochover today. Because this morning he called in to cnn with lizza on the other line. When i was on a plain to new york i had to call my mom. I was teasing you and it was sash cast tick. It was one italian to another. Stephen i. T. Was one italian to another i was visiting my mom. You know . Give me the leakers and maybe you never see your mom. I forget, does she have a front . But while he was there anyway, scaramucci was willing to talk on one condition. I just spent about 15 minutes on the phone talking with the president of the United States who has given me his full support and his full blessing, and im going to read you something, chris. Bear with me. The president also told me, if youre nice to me in this segment, hell let me come back on the show. Is that cool . Stephen yeah, chris, is that cool . You play nice, i play nice. You got a nice show there. Hate to see something happen to it. And the mooch let the leakers know, hes on to them. Ive interviewed most of the assistants to the president. Ive interviewed most of the people in the Communications Team and the white house. What the president and i would like to tell everybody, we have a very, very good idea of who the leakers are, who the senior leakers are in the white house. Stephen ive also done some research on whos sharing information damaging to the white house and weve been able to put together this composite police sketch. If you see this man approach with caution. Then the mooch reminded us how dangerous these leakers really are. The president of the United States, again, whether you guys like the guy, dislike the guy, hes the smartest person ive ever worked for. There are people inside the administration that think it is their job to save america from this president. That is not their job. Stephen hes right. Thats not their job. That is the job of robert mueller. I think thats his job, im not sure. Well find out. Well find out. Then, the mooch stressed how bad these leakers are the White House Leaks are small potatoes, relative with things going on about leaking things about syria or north korea or leaking things about iraq. Those are the sorts of leaks that are so treasonous, that 150 years ago, people would actually have been hung for those types of leaks. Stephen absolutely. 150 years ago, if people were leaking things on the internet, they would be hung for witchcraft. No one would put up with that, no. His message is subtle but the mooch doesnt like leaks and he knows whos ultimately responsible its absolutely, completely and totally reprehensible. As you know from the italian expression, the fish stinks from the head down. But i can tell you two fish that dont stink. Okay . And thats me and the president. Stephen okay, lets stop right there. Ive heard the stinks thing. Im trying to figure this thing out. Heres the fish. If it stinks from the head down, and the fish is the white house, isnt donald trump the head of the fish . But then youre saying that you and trump are different fish, who work at the fish . I dont understand this metaphor. I think you might be fished in the head. Yeah, thats going on us. Now, lets get back to Reince Priebus. Scaramucci says, despite their differences, he and reince are close. If you want to talk about the chief of staff, we have had odds. We have had differences. When i said we were brothers from the podium, thats because were rough on each other. Some brothers are like cain and abel. Other brothers can fight with each other and get along. I dont know if this is repairable or not. Stephen yeah, who knows . Some brothers are like cain and abel, some are like mario and luigi. Okay . Who knows what will happen. Will we go down a pipe to save the princess, or will i bash his head in with a rock and then lie to god about it . W. H. O. Knows. Am i my priebus keeper . And i my priebus keeper . Who knows, who knows . The question is Reince Priebus, why are you sticking around and taking this abuse . Just leave, and enjoy the easy life on spicer island. laughter stephen and the mooch isnt just handling the leaking. Yesterday, he met with bbcs senior driveway correspondent to explain just how difficult it is to pass a healthcare bill. Im wondering whether the president feels hes been frontstabbed by some of the senators who voted down that repeal of obamacare. If youve read team of rivals, it took lincoln three or four times to get what he wanted from the senate and the house of representatives, which was the full abolition of slavery. Stephen yeah, it took three or four times plus a civil war, so well see what happens. By the way, that John Wilkes Booth . Total coward. I wouldve frontshot him. Hey, abe. Boom ers by scaramooch. Stab you with my gun the mooch also made it clear that our multimillionaire real estate mogul president is no elitist. What part of donald trump is not elite . The business side, the politics side, the inheritance side . Away partly of donald trump, many people in the u. K. Dont understand that. Hes a celebrity. A billionaire. How about the oh my god, theres so many things about the president. How about the cheeseburgers, how about the pizzas that we eat . Everybody eats cheeseburgers and pizzas what are you talking about . No, no, no, no, no. See youre coming across a little bit elitist. Stephen okay, youre coming across a little bit elitist there, mary poppins. Supercalastabalicious Bibbity Boppity stab weve got a great show for you tonight, stick around scwhr.
