Let’s be clear: This is political censorship. Just as CBS’ parent company handed Trump $16 million to settle a spurious lawsuit, this decision is about preemptively bowing to a regime that demands obedience.
We stand with Stephen Colbert and every voice that Trump wants silenced.

"Colbert was there to say 'this isn't normal,'" writes @parkermolloy.com, "night after night, in homes across America."
"That voice is being silenced. Not because viewers stopped watching, but because a right-wing billionaire needs regulatory approval and a vindictive president demands submission."

Stephen Colbert roasted Paramount for handing Trump $16M to grease a merger. 3 days later—Canceled. Turns out the real cancel culture is corporate media silencing anyone who hurts its chances with an autocrat

The Cancellation of Stephen Colbert
By axing his show, CBS is reminding us that trust in corporate media is dead for a reason—but there's something even more sinister afoot we cannot ignore

SCOTUS allowing Trump to fire 1400 Dept of Ed employees is only the beginning of what’s to come with education in America.

This morning, my 9y/o asked me if someone would try to hurt me bc of what I write. Such a difficult & heartbreaking conversation to have to have with her, esp bc it’s obviously not age appropriate. Have no idea where she heard or came up with that, but we’ve got to do WAY better, folks.

The biggest current environmental risk from these sites, the IAEA says, is local. Uranium enrichment facilities contain toxic gases and chemicals, similar to what would be stored at any large industrial chemical plant.

Anyone who is SURPRISED by Trump Tariffs was deluding themselves. This wasn’t like the Project 2025 stuff that he disclaimed.
He talked about these over and over and over again.

Bill Ackman freaking out about tariffs and saying "this isn't what we voted for" is as clear a crystallization of conservative self-delusion as you could ever ask for. Yes it is you idiot, you voted specifically for this! He talked about this NON STOP

He’s a disaster for everyone but Putin.
Ask yourself why.
He needs to destroy it all for two reasons.
1. He works for Putin, it started in the 80’s. It’s documented. Russia is the only country not on the tariff list.
2. When it’s totally destroyed he’ll claim “ Only I can fix it”
