You could say last week was a big week for some truly bad people. And they seemed to be everywhere all at once. From bitter, TDS-afflicted late-night talk show hosts to busted jumbotron lovers, it was quite a week for the worst. Here are just a few of the worst people of last week. Add your picks in the comments. 

The Fifthers

Surprise, surprise. Old man Biden’s inner circle is clamming up. Two of President Joe Biden’s former aides invoked their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination last week during scheduled depositions with House Oversight Committee investigators. They dodged question after question about Biden’s mental decline and his liberal use of the auto pen. The week before, Biden’s White House physician, Dr. Kevin “Clean Bill of Health” O’Connor took the Fifth, refusing to answer questions. O’Connor’s hair stylist, who seems to be single-handedly attempting to bring back the Lloyd Christmas look, remains at large.  

Yes, the witnesses’ intransigence does raise some serious red flags. You know who told us so? Democrats. It wasn’t that long ago when Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., chair of the House kangaroo court known as the Jan. 6 committee, said if you “plead the Fifth … you are part and parcel guilty to what occurred.” 

“But you know, if you say you haven’t done anything wrong, but on the other hand, you want to assert the Fifth Amendment in terms of self-prosecution, it says that you have something to hide,” the uber-partisan Democrat said during the congressional show trials.

Wonder how old Bennie feels about all of that now. 

Goodbye, Stephen 

The ever-insufferable Stephen Colbert broke the news on his late-night “comedy” show (which doubles as a Democratic Party propaganda operation) that CBS is killing the show — and burying it. 

“I found out just last night, next year will be our last season,” the smug leftist told his studio audience. “The network will be ending The Late Show in May.”

“It’s not just the end of our show, but it’s the end of The Late Show on CBS. I’m not being replaced. This is all just going away,” Colbert  added. 

Apparently Keith Olbermann was busy. Or perhaps CBS parent Paramount Global thought a decade of Colbert was more than any TV viewer should have to handle. It was definitely a “financial decision.” Paramount said the broadcast network faces “a challenging backdrop in late night.” Colbert was first in his late-night time slot, but that’s not saying much. The networks and their late-night programming have been hemorrhaging viewers — and reportedly cash — for years. That’s what happens when you hate half of your potential audience. 

There was much gnashing of teeth and pearl clutching from Colbert’s fans and the selective freedom of speech crowd pitching conspiracies that President Donald Trump and his administration were working behind the scenes to drive out the host. They’re part of the same group-think gang that believes “PEOPLE WILL DIE!” with every Republican policy. 

Trump, however, was in a celebratory mood at Colbert’s late-night funeral. Colbert’s white-hot hatred for the president became the engine of the show David Letterman made famous more than 30 years ago. 

“I absolutely love that Colbert got fired,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform. “His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert! Greg Gutfeld is better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once-great Tonight Show.”

Fox News’ Gutfeld! again dominated all later-night comedy programs in the latest Nielsen ratings. 

Kimmel, meanwhile, is still searching for his manhood more than 20 years after The Man Show’s run. 

Shameless Schiff 

It was fitting that California’s conscienceless senator, Adam Schiff, was a Late Night guest when Colbert announced the show’s death sentence. The political panhandler instantly made the announcement political. 

“Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better,” Schiff wrote on his X account. 

One could say America deserves better than a morally bankrupt California politician who is accused of committing mortgage fraud and using his power and privilege to obtain better mortgage terms. The indignant Schiff was censured for misleading Americans in Democrat-led congressional investigations that propped up the Russian collusion hoax. After Schiff works through his latest legal problems, maybe he and out-of-work Colbert will team up for a bromance podcast from Steve’s basement. They can call it, “Build Back Bitter.” 

PBSing 

Speaking of bitter, the taxpayer-subsidized Corporation for Public Broadcasting doesn’t know how it will survive after the Republican-led Congress cut $1.1 billion in funds. CPB uses the taxpayer money to bolster the operating budgets of PBS, NPR, and member stations. Leftist NPR CEO Katherine Maher declared that public radio had suffered an “irreversible loss,” and “an unwarranted dismantling of beloved local civic institutions, and an act of Congress that disregards the public will.”

It’s funny, the unrepentantly left-leaning public broadcast networks have often insisted that taxpayer subsidies make up a small portion of their funding. Now, “PEOPLE WILL DIE!” If those federal dollars go away, their breathless defenders scream. 

Former U.S. Labor Secretary and resident leprechaun Robert Reich said Trump is “so hell-bent on gutting funds for PBS and NPR.”

“It’s part of a larger plan — one where he can control not just what we do, but what we think,” Reich claimed on X, overlooking the fact that public broadcasting has been injecting a leftist point of view in its content for decades. 

Big Bird could be homeless. Ernie and Burt may be staying at the YMCA (but they can hang out with all the boys). Oscar might have to start selling smack out of his garbage can just to survive. But the public broadcasting scam on taxpayers is over — at least for now. 

Jumbotron Lovers 

Here’s a life hack: If you’re going to take your paramour out in public, make sure you don’t pop up on a jumbotron at a Coldplay concert. Tech company CEO Andy Byron and his Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot learned that lesson a little too late. The canoodling couple shrank like George Costanza in the pool when they noticed themselves caught on the stadium’s big screen. 

“Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy,” Coldplay frontman Chris Martin told the audience of tens of thousands at Gillette Stadium, home to the NFL’s New England Patriots. 

It looked a lot like an affair. Byron is reportedly married. But maybe the hugging couple’s ultimate sin — at least against music — was attending a Coldplay concert.
