Colbert will be all right, maybe even better off. The world's his oyster and I'm sure MSNBC and Netflix will come calling. He could stand up the biggest late night YouTube channel in days. But they are just torching the Late Show, an institution, solely to appease a dictator. And that fucking sucks.

“It’s the largest redistribution from poor to rich in a single bill in American history.”
It's a play in three regressive parts:
1. Tax cuts for the rich.
2. Spending cuts on the poor.
3. Tariffs that hit low-income folks hardest.
