Nearly half the Senate gathered to interrogate Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday, and "they clustered around him like ... senators around a billionaire," Stephen Colbert said on Tuesday's Late Show. "Here's our full coverage: Nerds are awkward, old people don't know how the internet works." With that, he returned to a juicer subject: Monday's raid on President Trump's attorney and fixer.

"Now a lot of people are expecting me to celebrate just because this is devastating to Donald Trump, but we're not going to be dropping a bunch of Michael Cohen confetti tonight — because the FBI got all of his papers before he could shred them," Colbert said. The FBI took everything — computer, phone, and documents, including those related to Cohen's $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels. "In this case, the FBI actually does stand for Female Body Inspector," he quipped.
