I suppose there is a world where Trump’s SEC or FCC just blatantly blocks Netflix from purchasing Warner Bros but right now WB is the cat and Paramount is Pepé Le Pew.
In less than 24 hours, Colbert's interview with Talarico is at more than 3.8 million YouTube views.
The video is already one of the two most watched videos on the Late Show's YouTube page this year.

Trump can't steal the midterms.
I say that not as a call for complacency, but to right-size worries. Authoritarianism partially exists in our heads. Excessive fear plays into their hands.
Be vigilant but don't panic. Don't grant the regime more power than it actually has.

I still barely have a mental grasp on what a billion dollars is. Like what does one thousand stacks of a million dollars look like. How may people within a mile of me have a net worth of $1 million? or within a mile of republican House leadership?
