That dinner scene on Selling Sunset said everything about what “reality” TV has become.
Chaos broke out, voices rose — and right when it got real, Jason and Brett tried to cut the cameras.

🚨 NEW: The Writers Guild of America is demanding an investigation into CBS’s firing of Stephen Colbert—calling out what could be a politically motivated takedown of one of late night’s sharpest voices.

Stand with truth. Stand with Colbert.
Retweet to show you’re not backing down.

Support Steven Colbert and cancel your Paramount+ subscription and stop watching CBS.

Your voice matters and your resistance to fascism matters. You have the power to support free speech. Join the Resistance.
1/2
CBS and Paramount bow to a wannabe dictator—
gutless in the face of power, desperate to please.
They try to silence Stephen Colbert, but they fail.

Because we know what truthiness is.
Stephen lives it. Breathes it. Sharpens it into a blade.
He doesn’t just entertain—he exposes.

Looks like ICE is using the New England Patriot’s plane - which is available for charter in the off-season - to carry out their assholery.
Did the New England Patriots team plane just fly to Guantanamo? 👀

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors.

I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

What a “woke” concept from this administration. The fuckin” audacity.
taking black kids away from their parents and putting them on farms seems really familiar to me! what could it be?
Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Unreal. The US government is dumping Asian and African families and children in random countries that they have no connection to. Dumping, not "deporting." Deportation implies the return of a person to their home country. This is treating people like toxic waste.
