- Vladimir Putin's propaganda machine is trying to turn the letter 'Z' into a symbol of domestic support for his war in Ukraine, but his government can't hide the fact that the world's economic war against Russia is succeeding, as evidenced by major brands like McDonalds and Coca-Cola pulling out of the country at lightning speed. #Colbert #Comedy #Monologue

“The USA has declared economic war on Russia”
No, Putin.
This is just “special economic operation”,.. 👌
🤣🤣
Brilliant!!!
Swear I didn't steal ur post, but I just commented the exact samething soon as I seen the title
Yooooooo this is straight fire. 🔥🔥
HAHAHAHA
8:33 - Considering what happened the _last_ time Poland got dragged into a major multi-country conflict in Europe? I think we can give Poland a pass for not wanting to get directly involved...
Oh I don’t think Russia will be a problem for them if last time they fought the Soviet’s taught us anything
"So, as 'Z', I get to define what 'Z' means, and right now, 'Z' stands for ... Zelensky"
Well done Stephen. *applause*
Z for Zionist. Z a sort preZident with two cityZenships- UKhrain and Israel.
@Ivan Berdichevsky Maybe the real reason they're using it is the original plan was to use 2 Zs, with one turned on its side and overlaying the other. Would've been too on-the-nose, though.
@@Vaeldarg Roflmao so many things you can you with a letter, it can also be an 'N' which stands for Nazi, which Putin is. Or 'NZ', 'Not a Z' maybe Putin wanted to tell the world he is a 'Not a Z'elensky, well yeah I got that already, that's pretty evident.

Heheheh. Thanks.
Love your's comments. Hurt in the wallet....definitely I saw some Russians very upset over the golden arches leaving

It makes me wonder why they didn’t use the Cyrillic З.
No, is simply special grammatical operation.
I watched Zelensky speak to Parliament, and it did bring a few tears. Such a brave and patriotic human being, and a true leader. No wonder Trump disliked him.
There’s a great documentary on Netflix right now called Winter on Fire, about Ukraine’s battle for democracy and their bravery. Highly recommended.
@Jason Wong actor what?
@Jason Wong Yep Dumpster is a great ACTOR,and a shit president. Didn't he run in the panic 😳 🤔 room when a few people were outside the Whitehouse? Lol
well said thank you
Yes, Zelensky is a brave patriotic Human and definitely a true leader . As for Trump ,I am not sure that even Trump Himself liked liked Trump . I mean LOOK at how the Guy acted !

The departure of Ronald McDonald means Putin is once again the biggest clown in Russia.

I’d love to see The Late Show sell t-shirts that say “Z is for Zelensky🇺🇦 “. And give the proceeds to Ukraine.
I like the idea good one
YES!
I'd buy one if it's priced low enough to fit into my very tight budget, but...Sadly, most new things are above my price range. I can't afford $29 or more for a t-shirt. I can't even afford $19 for a t-shirt. I buy all my clothes from a second hand store, now. That happens when one's husband of 39 years suddenly abandons one and files for divorce with no real reason why other than he doesn't "want to live in my world any more," whatever the _~bleeping bleep~_ that's supposed to mean.
Anyway, if I had any money, I would happily buy one of these shirts!

That's a blessing in disguise when Mc Donald stop operation in your country. No more toxic nasty unhealthy food for the citizen of that country.
For those not familiar with Fitch ratings, C is the lowest possible grade for a nation that hasn't actually defaulted on any obligations yet. If Russia fails to pay when their next bonds are due (in only six days but they do have a 30 day grace period so April 16th is last chance) they will be downgraded to D. Nobody seriously believes they will be able to pay.
Yeah I have never heard of an industrial nation hitting C
The Ruble just had the largest one day drop.
Putin said that he will not pay because these are un-friendly countries 😂😂😂
He has lost his mind these 2 years of the Pandemic and whomever is in his inner circle are also culpable for what is happening.
Any idea how this affects the $$ of knothead trump?
as of Thursday night the Ruble trades at 140:1 to the US dollar. It was 81:1 the day before the invasion. Their total GDP is $1.4trillionUSD. The US Insurance and Finance industry alone contributes $1.2trillionUSD to the American GDP.
I wish Putin would have used Q instead of Z. That would really have thrown the tin-foil hat brigade into a tailspin.
In soviet Russia, Z is Q
@@jefflabbecomedy One of the best this week! May I copy that?
Omg missed opportunity...for the Q folks.to entertain me even more lololol

in case of his live 'AZ' (arizona), same words Z
Did John F Kennedy tell you that?
I love that he made a dad joke and you pretty much only heard the men laugh. Perfect.
I am genuinely wondering how long it’s going to take for Russia to pull itself out of the pit that they put themselves in. This is devastating for Ukraine, but this is also devastating for the innocent good people of Russia who do not support this in anyway and to suffer bc of Putin’s tyranny.
Regicide probably 🤷♂️
Sadly the majority of Russians probably genuinely support Putin's so-called "special military operation" given the decades of propaganda they have been getting from Russian state media. As a Chinese, I have ample first hand experience of how powerful propaganda can be to make people believe absurdities.
Not sure you heard but the whole point of the financial punishment was to pressure Putin's Oligarch buddies to think Putin wasn't worth their investment. So far it is working, one of the Oligarchs put a million dollar bounty on Putin's head. Sure it's not even close too enough money for the effort to get the job done against that paranoid bastard but it's a sign Russia will get rid of Putin too ensure their own well-being
The Russian people so far seem to think it's some weird move by the west that all these businesses have closed, and there are plenty of reports of people not believing that Ukraine is under attack. However, the fact that facebook has been blocked and all media is suddenly state issued should be an obvious sign to anyone who lived through the Cold War about what's really going on.
@@toadjiang7626 Unlike China, Russia hasn't blocked all western social media, we are winning the information battle as we have direct access to Russians to feed them video of what actually is happening.
seriously, Zorro will need to seek his revenge for this disgusting co-option of his trademark "Z"
Zorro? You must be as old as me.
lol, I was more thinking that if shitcan wants to make “Z” his thing, should we just start calling him Lord Z.
@@johnedwards7400 There have been a couple of moderately recent Zorro movies, for the young'uns.
Also Lord Zed of Power Rangers
@@johnedwards7400 Pop culture references to "Zorro" still crop up every now and then; the Shrek franchise's Puss in Boots is voiced by Antonio Banderas as a swashbuckling swordsman who leaves the capital letter "P" as his calling card.
As a Venezuelan is impossible for me to laugh at the Russian people's struggles, the worst feeling is to be trapped in your country being the direct victim of the sanctions just because your government doesn't want to leave. My heart goes to them, they don't deserve this.
Thank you for your words that's exactly how we feel now

@@justtester_9962 you'd be surprised where you can find mickey d's in this big ol world of ours
It's not an economics war, it's a special financial operation.
@i'm the king Except Ukraine didn’t join NATO and America didn’t invade Cuba. Plus, NATO is already on Russia’s border in other countries and isn’t threatening to invade Russia. The reason Ukraine wanted to join NATO is because Putin wanted to invade and he finally did.
Nice try, comrade but the only threat to Russia is Putin. He’s the one who stole Russia’s wealth, freedom, and security. The best thing that could happen to Russia is for them to arrest Putin so they can take back the billions of dollars he stole and use it to make Russia great again.
@i'm the king one of the main problems with this logic though is that, even if Russia does "reclaim" Ukraine, it'll be sharing a border with NATO countries anyway - Poland, and Hungary. Admittedly, it's a smaller border than the one with Ukraine, but it should be a moot point anyway - Ukraine should be free to make its own decisions re geopolitics and alliances. If the situation was reversed and Ukraine was trying to invade Russia, we'd be protesting and boycotting them instead. NATO countries don't invade places to seize land. NATO was involved with the wars in Bosnia & Herzegovina in 1995, and Afghanistan after 9/11, as response to the actions of the madmen there that committed and were planning further atrocities and attacks. NATO's actions are not comparable to what Putin has done. I've listened to John Mearsheimer's lecture on "Why is Ukraine the West's Fault?", and he made many of the same points you did, so I don't want you to feel personally attacked by our disagreement here, but I still think Putin is a madman and Ukraine should be free to make its own alliances with peaceful nations. Anything else feels like victim-blaming, and I don't think Mearscheimer or you make a compelling argument otherwise.
@i'm the king your copy-pasted disinformation spree has been debunked in so many other comment replies they're basically Bigfoot-level of disproven crockpot. Let it go, Ivan.
@i'm the king Russia had annexed Crimea in 2014, so wouldn't that mean that Russia is also trying to bring itself closer to NATO boundaries?
Hahaha
America has "Q", and Russia has "Z". The same person is responsible for both.
Is it T or P?

I'm glad businesses are pulling out of Russia, and I'm extremely glad the Ukrainians are putting up one hell of a fight. This isn't the cakewalk Putin thought it would be.
speaking of business deal, sell planes to Ukraine, Poland and U.S. for immediate delivery to Ukraine TODAY
Russian people: did you say cake? Where?
You know Putin..... Wow
Well if the world goes into all out war because Putin doesn't stop it will cut into profits way more than just Russian business.
I just hope Ukraine can keep it up, and that the Russian people put the blame where it belongs.
Putin needs to be stopped!! My heart goes out to all the civilians involved in these horrific atrocities.
Distinguishing between civilians and soldiers became blurred when the Ukrainians handed out weapons to all their citizens. They just made them all targets.
Andrew wood. So you’d expect them just to sit back and take it?
I’m not trying to be a dick just trying to wrap my head around you’re thought.

My favorite part of the pizza joke and why I loved it most of all was not because it was about pizza, even though I am woefully addicted to pizza, but it was about the fact that I could fact check the 40% figure immediately. So, while I can’t speak to your audience, I cheered for my own math skills!
The “Z” is just an IFF (Identification, Friend or Foe) to keep Russians from shooting each other. Not that it matters, Russian vehicles can be easily identified; they’re the ones on fire, stuck on the road, and facing the direction of Kyiv.
Is one more letter - "V", it used for local citizens, who marks their cars in cities occupied by Russian troops.
@America Project The east is always a mystery )))
Just curious.. since Russia's military is the second largest in the world, why do you think Russia is failing in this war against a military not even a 5th of the size?
@@zephyrus3554 multiple reasons; Russia's military is held back by corruption (budget does not make it into forces). Additionally, lack of training of troops for offensive operations. Poor co-ordination between units in Russian military. Inadequate logistical support; Russian forces are very dependent on rail transport for logistics and have like 1/10 the number of trucks western militaries have, so limits offensive operations. Also, they underestimated the Ukrainian resolve to fight, but also the effectiveness of their professional troops who have been fighting defensive operations against Russians for years now, and the rapid reaction brigades they have that quickly counterattack Russian advances (very WW2 german tactic that actually lol, German commanders were famous for the rapid counterattacks without being ordered to do so by higher authority) and targeted their fragile and lacklustre logistics (fuel trucks, trucks carrying shells and rockets for artillery). Ukrainians also are defending, so they are constantly falling back on their own supply lines, their own stockpiles, their own prepared defences, whereas the Russians are constantly moving further away from theirs as they advance.
However, these advantages wont last. Russia has been observed moving hundreds if not thousands of commandeered civilian trucks and transports to bolster their logistics up to the Ukraine front (although this will have its own delicious knock-on impact on their domestic economy, hee hee) and as they advance they will surely open up and use Ukrainian railway lines to feed supply depots in Ukraine. Moreover, Ukraine's internal economy and supply chain has been massively disrupted, and as the refugee crisis worsens they will be running out of food in warehouses, electricity in the grid (Russians have been capturing all electricity generating infra), fuel in gas stations and depots etc, whereas the Russians supplies will build up behind them as their steamroller finally starts creeping forward.
If Russia makes it all the way to the western edge of Ukraine (seems too risky to get that close to NATO, I think they want Kiev and then they will negotiation from strength, vs if Ukraine can hold Kiev and cost the Russians too much, they may negotiate from a position of some weakness) then the refugee situation will get worse and worse as more and more human beings are crammed into a smaller and smaller space with fewer and fewer resources to sustain them, and of course end up in neighbouring countries.
@@zephyrus3554 because 30 years of not maintaining Soviet equipment has made the military fall into disrepair. With an economy smaller than NewYork or California (before sanctions) there was no money to maintain thousands of BTRs, tanks, titan hull submarines and the like. The USSR cadre corruption continued under oligarchs and the Russian Fed deteriorates further.
Has Poland considered just casually leaving the jets near the Polish-Ukraine border with the keys in the ignition and then just looking the other way while Ukraine "steals" them?
Putin: "You supplied jets to Ukraine?"
Poland: "Nah man, damn Uk's stole'm right from under us. Real dick move if you ask me bruh. Totally not cool."
Well those Ukrainian farmers are something else lol
Yeah, I think the Poland jet situation is a little more complicated than what this comment and monologue presented. The US, Germany and Poland had all agreed to the plan prior to the US declining it a day later.
@@TheSokodelic Even the British knew by asking Poland to hand Ukraine jets, they are made to bear the brunt of any possible retaliation. It was really smart for Poland to suggest giving the jets to US and that is why cowardly US rejected the idea after pushing Poland to poke the bear in the first place.
That was the plot of a Star Wars Rebels episode. But it worked, so why not?
@@TheSokodelic they did? very doubtful. The German government would be batshit crazy if they agreed to that

Poland actually makes a good point about the transfer of the jets. If they supply Ukraine with these jets, they want it to be a NATO decision, they want it to be completely backed by NATO.

Many Russians? Yes.
All? No.
Russia itself? As it stands? No.
Putin? *Hell No!!!*
@@Justusson who is Russia? Gov or its people? There were over 6000 Russians that have been arrested for protesting and stuff last week.
Poor russians.. did you know that with every war russia's started putin's popularity sky rocketed? He's a product of russian society.
@@toxygen6807 Did you actually read my post? That was my point, exactly,..!?!
At least the average Russian citizens are not dragging themselves out of bomb and fire devastated villages, towns and cities. Neither are they seeing people blown up in front of their eyes.
Go Colbert!!!
Start off with good news!!! I LOVE IT!!!
The only reason Poland said they wanted to transfer the planes to US base, because US was pressuring them for over a week, to hand over the planes to Ukraine on their own.
Yep, it was all good according to Blinken for Poland to hand over the planes, but when they asked the US to do it it suddenly became way too dangerous.
@@maciejtrybilo bull crap. both the comment and the reply are disinformation.
@@davidbelway6076 Please feel free to elaborate.
@@maciejtrybilo you made the claims. i say bs. what part don't you understand.
Yeah except they’re they’re the ones on the boarder
Glory to Ukraine, glory to the heroes!
The real heroes will win, that is, Russia, don't worry
Mortal Kombat has only 5 fighters, Ukraine has 10 million fighters!
America funding bio labs in Ukraine. Just like wuhan. Nato broke minsk agreement. Nato and USA funding azov apparently! The neo Nazi group in West Ukraine. Attacking russian people in East Ukraine. Obama overthrow of Ukraine government in 2014..( DIGITAL MAIDAN) . Over 1 billion went missing. Who was his vice president? Joe Biden! Zelensky imprisonment of political opposition. Mentioned in Pandora papers ( rich off shore acciunts). Apparently worth 1.3 billion! Asked for nukes! The final straw! Keep believing! Keep believing this clown on tv! Welcome to the great reset or 4th industrial revolution. America is the new Bolshevik revolution. America is being destroyed from within. Democrats or republicans... don't matter. They work for the bankers. The media The mouth organ. Welcome to the hunger games!
@@cultureal9544 I didn't believe that Americans are stupid before 😂 To be fair, I've met smart Americans, but it's not you
@@tdmprofit3708 There's so much delusion, disinformation and conspiracy nonsense in your post. Does Russia sponsor you? $$$🤑🤑🤑
Dont let Russia mess with the letter Z
After all...America has already destroyed the letter Q...soon we will only have wingdings!
That ‘McDostoevsky’s’ joke was very funny.
Stephen doesn't miss a chance to quote "For Frodo" in a monologue! And we love it!
He also laughs at you to pay the price at the pump, i guess when under hypyonic conditions one would find this idiot funny..
@@BabushkaBrigade You guys cannot get orange-man-bad out of your heads. Keep it up - you're getting destroyed in the midterms.
@@BabushkaBrigade LOL your comment makes no sense
@@BabushkaBrigade only reason he can headline is because the owner loves him. Everywhere else Trump is the joke.
@@nicholash1691 Recognizing the insane, anti-logic employed by sergio, it's a pretty safe assumption he's all for their cheeto jesus.
Russia can't say " No one can help Ukraine with war planes" when they are getting help from Belarus
He has also brought in Syrian fighters which he would not of been able to do if Trump had not let Turkey butcher the kurds. Ukraine needs to hire Betsy Devos's family to go to war for them; they are a mercenary company after all.
Unfortunately, they have nukes.
putin has rules?
They can't say "No one can help Ukraine with war planes" because Russia has no say over other country's decisions.
Same reason the US can't tell Mexico what alliances it can make, or Canada can't craft legislation for Massachusetts...
@@BoojumFed well. They did say that. And the west is afraid to even give the airplanes to Ukraine when Poland accepted to give but the catch was it will hand to US and US will give to Ukraine and US said NO
Churchill & DeGaulle in the house, Yo !
Jon Batiste looking sharp as hell! Nice threads, man.
Colbert claiming that he is Z is bringing back memories of Bill Maher saying that he is Q and I love it
As a Z Anon practitioner I am glad that Colbert has come out as Z.
Hey start mentioning that he also has a law degree. This man is educated, talented, highly intelligent, compassionate and brave!
Who?
@@pambrown6260 Zelensky.
Mr. Zelensky was a lawyer. And people says lawyers aren't funny. We are! If not, we usually dead inside
Thank you. I needed this laugh 🙂
This was all just a matter of time, Bless all and hope You have a good life of a day.
Brands on the run!
A former "Actor and Comedian", with a Law Degree from the Kyiv NEU becomes a viable President, color me impressed. A "Celebrity Game Show Host" becomes a thespian, pretending he's a President, not so much.
Mcdonald's exiting Russia is actually good for Russia. Actually Mcdonald's, KFC, Coco cola, Pepsi must exit every other country coz they dont serve good food or beverage.
They can't handle the Z! No touchy! Love to Ukraine ❤
I'm incredibly happy to see that we are finally in a day and age when the world will stand up to a bully.
Exactly
Yea America has had it come for years now, lets hope we are close enough to the nuclear bombs to die instantly.
What if the bully is America? They are Heros? Russia is a hero. They are fighting because the killing if Russions in donbas the attempt of America to bring Ukraine to Eu.
@@spicybiryani2617 and? I'm assuming you're going to tell me how Ukraine joining the EU would create issues for Russia? a completely separate and sovereign country from Russia?
Let me guess you also think that Trump should be our king to, right?
Maybe the U.S should get sanctions for Iraq and Afghanistan
Breaking headline - “Republicans worried about Russia being cancelled by woke elitists”
Excellent
All the crappy brands fled.
Sure, while you are overtaking a neighbouring country, you adopt a turnsymmetric symbol. Seen that before.
id be fine if mcdonalds exited america while they are at it.
Lol. They aren't even cheap anymore. Just a terrible restaurant.
@@exeggcutertimur6091 Right?? LOL
LOL. Now that's Funny!
Imagine if the corporate world decided no more McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Pepsi. Americans would stop being "American FAT".
As much as I dislike McDonald's, I am going to go buy some tonight for dinner in honor of Ukraine. Make that a LARGE COKE please.
I stand with Ukraine.
