The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is gearing up for a week of excitement at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago. The talk show, hosted by Stephen Colbert, will be broadcasting live from the Windy City, bringing viewers all the highlights from this highly anticipated event.
With Kamala Harris now at the top of the Democratic ticket, the energy surrounding the DNC is exploding. One organizer described it as a wake turning into Mardi Gras. Chuck Schumer may have some interesting stories about how they acquired all those beads!
In addition to the convention itself, the DNC has planned a range of daytime programming, aptly named Dem Palooza. This includes activities like friendship bracelet making, campaign training, and even free manicures. It appears the Democrats are determined to sell democracy with spa services!
It’s not just the DNC that’s getting in on the excitement. Outside groups are offering free beer and birth control, and sometimes even both at the same time! Who needs a mundane IPA when you can have an IPA with an IUD?
A number of celebrity guests have been confirmed for events surrounding the convention, including Uma Thurman, Octavia Spencer, and CBS’s own Ian Armitage of “Young Sheldon.” This just goes to show that Kamala Harris has captured the youth vote, with even young Sheldon himself in attendance!
But the DNC won’t just be filled with politicians and celebrities. Online celebrities and influencers will flood the convention, including stars from TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram. And let’s not forget about the influential personalities on more niche apps like StubHump, GumpHub, and StumpHut. It seems everyone wants to be part of this historic event.
As for the Democratic ticket, Joe Biden, alongside Tim Walz and Kamala Harris, has a jam-packed schedule next week. They will not only be attending convention events in Chicago but also planning a rally in Milwaukee. It’s a lot to cram into a short week, but that’s just Biden’s dad energy shining through.
But amidst all the excitement surrounding Harris and Biden, let’s not forget that Monday night is Joe’s night. The president himself will graciously hand over the keys to allow the event to focus on Harris. It’s always better when the seniors hand over the keys willingly, right?
Wednesday will have Bill Clinton addressing the economy under Biden, promising an attempt to make prices come down. As he famously said, “Y’all prices are coming down. Last year, a gallon of milk cost two saxophones. Now it’s down to one sex cigar.” Ah, the wild ’90s.
While the DNC takes the spotlight, there’s some non-convention news making waves. San Francisco residents are unhappy with driverless cars honking at each other when trying to park at night. These robot taxis are causing quite a stir, though not exactly the terrifying robot uprising we imagined.
All in all, the DNC promises to be a vibrant and eventful week, filled with political stars, celebrity guests, and plenty of partying. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will be there every step of the way, bringing the highlights and entertaining viewers across the nation. Stay tuned for more updates as Chicago gets ready to party!
