Late-night hosts discussed the latest news to suggest that Brett Kavanaugh wasn’t being totally honest about his past of heavy drinking.

On The Daily Show, Trevor Noah spoke about the importance of honesty in this particular line of work. “Along with a complexion that looks good in black, honesty is the thing you most want in a supreme court judge,” he said.

The latest strike against the supreme court nominee concerns his drinking. During his hearing, Kavanaugh denied that he had ever had a problem but a resurfaced police report reveals that he was involved in a bar fight while in college.

“Kavanaugh might not be fit to sit on the supreme court but we should nominate him for the next season of Jersey Shore,” Noah joked.

He continued: “Do you know how bad a fight has to be for the police to get called on a white guy?”

The specifics of the case involve Kavanaugh reportedly throwing his drink in someone’s face after incorrectly assuming it was the lead singer of UB40. “If you’re throwing a drink in someone’s face because they’re not the lead singer of UB40 then you’re either someone who drunk a shit ton or you’re just a crazy person,” he said.

Stephen Colbert

On The Late Show, Stephen Colbert also discussed the same report. “If you’re familiar with UB40, you be at least 40,” he joked.

Colbert continued: “Nothing could be more stereotypically college in the 1980s. What’s next? Kavanaugh teamed up with James Spader to steal Molly Ringwald’s underwear and throw it into the pool where Phoebe Cates is sunbathing while John Cusack holds a boombox over his head screaming ‘I want my MTV’?”

Speaking to the press yesterday, Donald Trump said that lying to Congress is problematic and while doing an impression of him, Colbert riffed: “Lying is kind of my thing and you can’t take assaulting women because I got that too.”

Seth Meyers

On Late Night with Seth Meyers, the host decided to look at the work of Stephen Miller (“Trump’s favourite ghoul”) and his cruel immigration policies, something that has received less coverage since the supreme court controversy.

While he has been working to crack down on illegal immigration, he has also been trying to minimise legal immigration as well by making it harder for people to receive benefits from the government. Meyers played a clip on Fox & Friends where a pundit claims reports of families avoiding government health funding is planted by the left to make Trump seem racist. “The left doesn’t exactly have to do anything to make Trump seem more racist,” Meyers countered, before listing off evidence.

Meyers believes that Trump and Miller have two key things in common: “They’re both racist and hate poor people.”

He also expressed his surprise over Miller’s age. “It is hilarious that that guy is 33,” he joked. Even his hair doesn’t want to be associated with him.”
