Stephen Colbert had to wait a week, but he finally got to celebrate the firing of Tucker Carlson from Fox News.

Here are some of Colbert’s best Tucker Carlson jokes:
Fox News fires Tucker Carlson. I feel like I’ve had the best feeling in my entire life to finally be able to say that I’ve had this for a week on TV. Like it or not, Carlson was a very popular cable news host, so why fire him? Fox didn’t give a reason, in fact Tucker Carlson’s exit is a mystery, yes it’s a mystery. Why didn’t this happen years ago?
…
For those of you who don’t know which word I’m talking about, next Tuesday he called his boss CU, or for that matter, CU at all, Tucker.
…
It’s not just sexism, some high-ups at Fox are concerned about what they feel is thinly veiled racism on his show. Thinly veiled? No wonder they’re crazy, their faux racism is fattened up like country bacon.

Tucker is currently a free agent and there is a lot of interest right after being fired from Russian state media. That must be a tempting offer. He still represents Russia pro bono. Tucker has received informal offers from One America News Network, the conservative news outlet Blaze TV. Mike Lindell gives Tucker Carlson a job, yes Lindell wants Tucker to be a pillow.
