Forget the Christmas tree — this year Stephen Colbert is all about his "impeachment tree."

"It's got all the traditional ornaments," the Late Show host explains in the clip above. "The star on top is the transcript of Trump's 'perfect' phone call. We've got plenty of other ornaments too. Let's see... oh, we've got the Quid Pro Snow... got some pictures of some of the other presidents who've been impeached... oh and up here, my favorite, it's Lindsey Graham's balls. He's not using them these days."

Colbert follows that up with a breakdown of the latest Trump news, from his announcement about his first phone call with the Ukrainian President to an exclusive insight into the inner-workings of the president's brain. Happy holidays?
