While sitting panel, the two got into a rather interesting, and at times awkward, conversation about the Paris attack at the alleged hands of ISIS. Maher brought up GOP hopeful Donald Trump's recent comment about bombing "the sh*t" out of the Islamic State group and noted that it's ridiculous to respond to the extremists with anything other than your brain.

Well, Late Show host Stephen Colbert heard this and decided to: 1) acknowledge that Mr. Trump’s probably with numbers stretches back to his failed marriages, and 2) ask the former GOP frontrunner for a small donation, of $1 million, to help out The Harlem Children’s Zone.

Tuesday night's Democratic debate has quite a few people yammering in anticipation. Of course, not as many as the Republican debates, but that was largely because of Donald Trump's oh-so-anything-can-happen presence. Regardless, CNN will host the very first Democratic debate, and many are hopeful that vice president Joe Biden shows up to announce his run for President, which is exactly why the network has created a "just in case" podium for the VP. And if you ask Late Show with Stephen Colbert host, well, that's just ridiculous. Read More »

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night to promote his campaign. What actually happened was he became the whipping post for Colbert and his crew throughout the entire episode—even during his interview. Of course, as most of us loved it – yet were hoping for more of a “hard” interview, if we’re be honest – what we were perhaps most surprised about was the fact that Trump played ball… for the most part. When it came to addressing his views on President Barack Obama’s birth certificate, well, he just dodged the question. Read More »
