What to expect from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight, June 16

A new week has started, and that means late-night TV fans will turn to their favorite shows to catch up on everything that happened over the weekend. So what should The Late Show with Stephen Colbert fans expect to see tonight on CBS?

Stephen Colbert certainly has a lot to get to on Monday night. President Donald Trump's military parade and the Iran-Israel conflict dominated the headlines over the past few days. Both should be on Colbert's radar, with one being a much easier topic for late-night TV than the other.

We'll get to see if and how Colbert threads that needle on Monday night. There will be a brand-new episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight, June 16.

Of course, Colbert won't pass up the chance to mock Donald Trump over the parade that coincided with the president's birthday. Turnout wasn't exactly massive, so the Late Show host should have plenty to say given Trump's love of crowd sizes.

Look for more Trump talk when Colbert covers the missile strikes in Israel and Iran. Plus, news that Trump is launching a mobile phone company should keep his name peppered throughout the monologue.

Who's on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight?

Stephen Colbert will take a brief break from politics once the guests start. His first guest on Monday night comes from the entertainment world.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit star Mariska Hargitay joins the show tonight. She'll be on to promote her directorial debut, My Mom Jayne. The documentary chronicles the life and career of Hargitay's mother, screen legend Jayne Mansfield.

Then, it's back to politics for Colbert's second guest. Senator Tammy Duckworth stops by to chat with Colbert. A vocal critic of Trump's military parade, the Democrat and and veteran should have a lot to say on tonight.
