CBS parent company Paramount canceled Colbert to win approval from Trump's FCC to merge with Skydance.

Now ABC parent company Disney suspends Kimmel as it seeks DOJ approval to buy Fubo — and its affiliate Nexstar seeks FCC approval to buy Tegna.

See how this works?

The suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's show highlights exactly what @inaeoh.bsky.social warned us about in the wake of The Late Show's cancellation:

"The end of Colbert signals a dark new chapter in Trump’s authoritarian slide. If this can happen to...a storied franchise, this can happen to anyone."
Colbert's cancellation is a dark warning
CBS's decision marks a dangerous new stage for the culture at large.

Arkansas Congress Critters are no-shows at NWA town hall.

#NWArkansas Representative #Womack and #Arkansas Senators #Cotton & #Boozman were absent at Saturday's town hall hosted by #IndivisibleNWA

This week's newsletter from Mr. Womack echoed the MAGA lies, denying the damage done by the OBBB.

@danholtmeyer.bsky.social writes about it here:
Womack, a liar, calls us liars
In his world, the Big Beautiful Bill's cuts aren't cuts, tax cuts for the rich help the poor, and bureaucratic sludge is good.

This is massively important and @arkdems.org need to be all over it. This poor state is subsidizing resegregation at the cost of almost four hundred million dollars to taxpayers, including the minority and rural families whose schools are about to be ripped out from underneath them. #arpx #arkansas

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

“The military I love is under threat — from its own commander in chief,” writes our columnist David French. Using the U.S. military against domestic foes “risks fracturing its bond with the American public and diminishing its ability to recruit.”

Marco Rubio pulled the plug on a US medical program that fly severely injured children from Gaza to receive medical attention they so desperately need. Once treatment is provided, the child & accompanying adult are sent back to their country. Nothing quite says evil bastard than a face like this. ⬇️

MAGA’s really out in full force today, guess we struck a nerve. Lots of comments like “liberals don’t know anything about respect” and “Trump was just showing respect to Putin.” Uh huh… respect for who exactly? Putin? Russia? Yeah, no! We’re good.

Masked men jumped a San Bernardino family in unmarked cars, opened fire, and shattered their truck windows—all while the family was just coming home from work.

The feds later admitted it was CBP, but the family says the agents never showed warrants or IDs.
