Colbert Rages Against RFK’s Latest Pharma Move… Can You Spot The Reason His Show Got Axed?
This ‘comic’ shills for Pharma even harder than Fauci ever did… is he hoping to snag a seat on one of their boards?
Colbert’s head wasn’t ALWAYS lodged firmly in the large intestine of Big Pharma. That pivot came at just about the time that Biden was declared the winner (with a huge asterisk*) of 2020’s election.
When he thought the vaccine might bring an end to the one crisis with enough traction that it could put Trump’s re-election on the ropes, it was important to be vaccine-skeptical. Less than a year later, he couldn’t have pushed it any harder if he was getting a bonus for every shot sold.
The incomparable Maze Moore went into the archives to expose him for that hypocrisy around the time his show got axed.

Tucked into the joke reasons not to trust this vax after ‘crumblefoot’ and ‘strotal Yoda’ — you guessed it ‘Full blown Coronavirus’. In July, when his assignment had pivoted from keeping Trump from being re-elected, to keeping the crowds complying with Biden’s authoritarian mandates, and giving that same ‘big pharma’ a pass on any unwanted scrutiny… he changed his tune completely. He had a literal song-and-dance telling people to get the jab, where dancers were dressed like syringes. The only thing missing from that scene was a tattoo of the Pfizer logo across his forhead.
Fast forward once again, to 2025.
The tables have turned. Trump is once again on the ascendency, and what passes for Colbert’s comedy career is in a tailspin. The show’s days are numbered, and the guy who once alleged Trump’s mouth was a ‘holster’ for Putin’s nether regions hasn’t noticed the abject hypocrisy of how wide he is opening his own jaw to offer the same sexual favor to the entirety of Big Pharma.
What was the issue that set Stevie off? You guessed it: MRNA research.

“F*ck you, you roadkill-munching, luddite human Slim Jim!”
Smug AND sanctimonius. What a wonderful combination. We don’t even have to go into the long list of why almost everything he said in these clips is brain-numbingly stupid. Imagine if June 2020 Colbert could have forseen how cravenly he would sell out to the very same Big Pharma he was mocking.
He’s tanked his brand so badly that there’s no point in replacing him with someone funny. Any audience they might have had looking for jokes has long since switched to Gutfeld.
