I give CBS the weekend before they announce that they'll be replacing Colbert with just an hour of Don Jr. getting increasingly fucked up on every drug imaginable and firing a gun every time someone says the word "woke"

The Paramount - Skydance merger will be worthless if no one is watching. Independent media is doing to corporate media what independent music did to major labels back in the day. Fuck with the people at your own risk, oligarchs.
WGA statement on Paramount’s decision to cancel the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
Stephen Colbert is an epic talent, an incisive observer who’s been wronged by Paramount. They can pretend this isn’t capitulation, but I wouldn’t believe it.
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
They’re trying to set a record for the most white guys in suits in one shot ever
Stephen Colbert is a profoundly good and deeply talented man with a great staff and an excellent show. They all deserve better.

Dear @stephencolbert.bsky.social, Thanks for all the years of speaking truth to power & finding the funny in fascism. Looking forward to following you wherever you land, Your fan, Mar🐫
THIS IS NOT A DRILL: ICE has detained hundreds of U.S. citizens by “mistake.” And now they want 100,000 beds and more planes to scale up? They’re not deporting “illegals”—they’re running a kidnapping ring with government contracts.
My name is Peter Morley. I live on fixed income. I have Lupus & chronic illnesses & disabilities & have subsisted on Social Security Disability for 18 years. I've survived cancer 2x & had 11 surgeries. I DEPEND on Medicaid & SNAP. I will NEVER GIVE UP fighting for me & for you until my last breath.💜
Massachusetts decided to tax the rich, and collected $2.6 billion over the last 10 months. That’s $2.6 billion more to spend on transportation and education.
Amy Coney Barrett *recused* in SCOTUS's Oklahoma religious charter school case, giving a defeat to Christian nationalists. They are already not pleased with her.
I’m horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers at an event in DC last night. The fact that the gunman said he did it to “free Palestine” makes me nauseous. Murdering people for their nationality is never acceptable and this violence hurts Jews, Israelis, *and* Palestinians.
The Trumper obsession with Harvard is a cringe-inducing drama around status envy.
I voted NO on their “big, beautiful” bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.
Reginald is SAFE AND TAGGED FOR RESCUE!! 🛟 🥳📣🎉🙏🎉
Here's a picture that a @kuow.org photographer took in Seattle yesterday, showing the ICE officers masked up in the hallways as they waited to arrest people coming out of their hearings.
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · last yr.🚨ICE arrests continued today at immigration court nationwide, with ICE officers handcuffing people in the hallways after ICE prosecutors moved to dismiss cases. Today we got more confirmation that even where the judges are NOT dismissing cases, ICE is still detaining people in some cases.
This is real. “Suck it.” The Secretary of the US Department of Homeland Security.
Horrified and heartbroken by the terror attack at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, DC. Antisemitic hate and violence must have no safe harbor in America. May the memories of those who were senselessly murdered be a blessing.
Take all the time you need with this because you’ve got 3½ more years to ponder: If you sat out the 2024 election, you voted against your own interests too— by way of abstention.
It’s odd that work requirements for benefits was supported by the laziest president in history.
