BREAKING🚨 Trump spent all week bragging that he got Stephen Colbert “fired.” Less than 24 hours later, Colbert was back on TV with Jack White, Eminem, Steve Buscemi, and Jeff Daniels — flipping him the bird from a tiny public access studio in Michigan. Thursday night, after 11 years, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ended on CBS. Trump immediately took a victory lap, posting an AI video of himself grabbing Colbert and throwing him into a dumpster, then dancing on the lid. He ranted that Colbert was “talentless,” celebrated that he was “finally finished,” and basically declared himself the man who got a critic taken off network TV. The party lasted about 23 hours. Friday at 11:30 p.m., Colbert popped back up — not on a major network, but on Monroe Community Media 1 in Monroe, Michigan, hosting the local public‑access show “Only in Monroe.” He read goofy local news, roasted his former bosses at CBS, and welcomed surprise guests Jack White and Jeff Daniels. Then came cameos from Steve Buscemi and hometown legend Eminem, who wandered onto the set just to show they were in on the joke. All that star power, crowding into a community‑access studio, just to send one message: you can’t cancel someone who won’t shut up. “It’s been an excruciating 23 hours without being on TV,” Colbert deadpanned, before thanking Monroe Community Media for having him “before they get acquired by Paramount.” That’s the whole story in one line: Trump can lean on billionaires and corporate bosses. He can post his little AI cartoons. But he cannot actually make a voice disappear if that person is determined to keep talking — even if it’s from the most bare‑bones cable channel in Michigan. This is what authoritarian types never understand. Censoring a critic doesn’t kill the criticism. It amplifies it. By gloating over Colbert’s finale and literally sharing a fantasy of throwing him in the trash, Trump turned a late‑night host into a free‑speech folk hero. Instead of quietly exiting the stage, Colbert got a new, bigger story: the comic who went from CBS to public access overnight just to prove that comedy doesn’t belong to corporations or presidents. Now the clip that’s going viral isn’t Trump’s AI dumpster video. It’s Colbert sitting in a cramped local studio with Jack White and Eminem, laughing about how fast he bounced back. Everyone’s talking about the comedian Trump tried to erase — and how small, petty, and thin‑skinned the president looks in comparison. Whatever Colbert does next, he’s going to be living rent‑free in Trump’s head the entire time. And the more Trump tries to silence him, the louder that little public‑access studio in Monroe is going to sound.

What’s the context to this image? Also notice how we’re just supposed to be outraged. There’s no real analysis here of why certain comparisons are wrong. Some of them definitely seem wrong but others might actually not be that far off this is literally just low IQ rage bait for normies to get all “rah rah” about their political side. This is why I invite pundits mostly now. They offer no substance.

Teenagers are sharing photos of their AP U.S. Government textbooks, and the sheer amount of indoctrination is wildly disturbing. Apparently, Barack Obama is ideologically a right wing authoritarian. Hillary Clinton and George W Bush are entirely indistinguishable politically. Donald Trump is of course virtually the same as Hitler. @tedcruz is apparently more radically authoritarian than Fidel Castro AND Joseph Stalin..??!!?? @Linda_McMahon — can we expedite some major changes to American public education?

@nickgerli1 @__DigitalDealer We finally gave in here in Utah and just sold our house that we bought in 2020 with a 2.99%. After having two more kids, we outgrew the house. We tried renting, but the renters wanted to buy and we let them. Now we're renting ourselves and not sure what to do next. Ideas?! Lol

Kind of sad when you put it that way. However, many of these owners will be content to hold onto the rate, and maybe rent the house out. Trouble is: that lower the rents in the area, and the other newer owners with the higher rates, are more inclined to cut prices. Individually speaking, these owners can keep their low rate for decades. But their power over the market is coming to an end.

With each passing day, the mortgage rate lock-in effect fades. Nearly 22% of mortgage holders now have a rate above 6%. Which is more than the share with a rate below 3%. Ultra-low-rate owners are slowly getting replaced with 6%+ owners. Meaning downward pressure on prices is coming.

@remarks This was since the beginning of the charity, so 15 years. It's not like this was a new charity. I mean, it's still not great, but this headline doesn't tell the whole story.

@BalderGregs @alfkkifine Therapy helped me a ton. You have to learn to love yourself and be confident in order to be in a good healthy relationship. I still struggle a lot with it though.

There is a whole generation of men out here who are absolutely exhausted from being the "transitional guy." They come into your life, absorb all the trauma your toxic ex left behind, provide stability, and love you gently. But because your brain is still addicted to chaos, you mistake his consistency for a lack of passion. You drain his peace to heal yourself, and then abandon him because there isn't enough "drama" to keep you entertained. Men are constantly being used as emotional handymen to fix damage they didn't cause, only to be discarded the second the foundation is stable. It is pure emotional vampirism.
k@alfkkifine

what opinion about men do you have that makes people feel like this???

@GogginWalters @SenSchumer @grok Which was also Trump's fault too. He's the one who signed the agreement with the Taliban which started and caused all the issues with the Afghanistan withdrawal.

More Trump chaos and incompetence. Hundreds of Americans, including many New Yorkers, are stranded across the Middle East, and the State Department’s message is basically 'good luck.’ Evacuation warnings were issued three days into the war, with airspace shut down and no U.S. government flights in place. This is what happens when you recklessly gut the State Department under DOGE and rush into a war with no plan. Zero planning, zero strategy, and now Americans are paying the price.

@RobertGehrke I'm also confused because the lyrics really do not make Trump look good either. Either way, I just hate politics under Trump. It's so unserious.

@C_3C_3 You are dumb if you think it's about hating America. It's all about party. If this was Biden doing it, it'd be the Republicans saying the exact same thing. You know this. This isn't hard.

Once you realize this you’ll never miss it again. When America is in a dispute with another country the Dems and Media will ALWAYS side with the other country. Last time it was Venezuela. Today its Iran. It doesn’t matter who it is or what it’s about. They just hate America.

I'll say it because everyone else is afraid. The men's accomplishment was a far superior accomplishment. The competition the women faced was far inferior. They outclassed the rest of the world by miles. Not their fault. The men were facing a much more talented team, going against 4 of the 5 best players in the world. Bottom line, women's hockey is just not that interesting. Ask any hockey fan to name 5 players from any other women's gold medal team.

USA women's hockey gold medalist @HilaryKnight describes her team's relationship with the USA men's team as one with a "genuine level of support and respect" that's being overshadowed by a "quick lapse." "Our achievements shouldn't be overshadowed by anything else other than how great they are."
