The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Yes We Scam!
Stephen welcomes authors Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein and a musical performance by Bonnie Raitt. Air Date: Jun 14, 2022. The former president scammed $250 million dollars in low-dollar donations from his most passionate followers for his bogus Election Defense Fund, and only time will tell if the DOJ prosecutes anybody after the Jan. 6th Committee investigation concludes. Next up, a special bonus act that didn't air on TV, all about the Watergate hearings! Which brings us to legendary journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, who have released an updated edition of their book, “All The President’s Men” fifty years after they broke the story of a break-in at the Watergate Hotel. Listen to this exclusive podcast extended interview as they share their thoughts on the Jan. 6th Committee hearings, compare how Republican congressmen like Barry Goldwater stood up to Nixon to the way the current crop of GOP lawmakers continued to back T**** even after the horrors of the Jan. 6th insurrection, and tell stories of great moments in journalism history.
