EXCERPT:
COLBERT: “We may be the home of the brave here in the United States, but you’ve gotta admire the toughness of the Ukrainian people. When Putin launched his monstrous war, everyone was saying Kyiv would fall within 48 to 72 hours. But it’s day 15, and they’re still standing strong. Even with 150,000 of Putin’s soldiers in the country, the Russians control, at most, about 10% of Ukraine. Hey, Putin – how you like them turnips? So far, the Ukrainian military says they have shot down or destroyed, 48 Russian airplanes and 80 helicopters; captured or destroyed 303 Russian tanks and hundreds of mechanized vehicles and cars; and have taken out two Russian naval vessels. That’s gotta especially sting. That’s got to especially sting Putin. We all know how proud he is of his ’naval.’”
