Adam Sandler, Anderson Cooper, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, John Oliver and Andy Cohen were among those who made surprise appearances on Monday's episode after CBS announced that the late night show would be ending in May 2026.

The president’s post comes after CBS unexpectedly canceled Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” last week. In response to the cancellation, Trump initially wrote, “I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert!”

On July 17, CBS News announced it will cancel "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert " in May 2026, in what was described as a purely financial decision unrelated to the show's content. President Donald Trump - whom Colbert frequently skewers in monologues - quickly weighed in on the decision.
