Trump on Stephen Colbert today: 'He was like a dead person.' Also Trump: 'Late Night Television Hosts, Others, of even less talent, to soon follow. May they all Rest in Peace!' Sure sounds like Trump is making death threats. Pinging his violent followers?

"The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" went out on a literal high note. Last night’s series finale was the most-watched weeknight episode of Colbert’s eleven-year tenure on the show... www.cnn.com/2026/05/22/m...

All I can say to Mr. Scott concerning his emailed opinion that I do not know what true class is... touché? #Colbert #TheLateShow #FreelancerLife

So now, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will not be broadcast into a single American home, making it no different than The CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil.

Eat shit and, for the monsters who did this to six innocent people, expect hard times.

Introduce yourself with 10 bands you've seen live: Elvis Costello The Bobs Robyn Hitchcock Fugazi The Roches They Might Be Giants The Kinks Wilco Bob Dylan Parliament Funkadelic

Tonight. Colbert’s last show all because of a small, petty, convicted felon of a President whose ego is so fragile that he can’t take a joke. Make CBS hurt. They bent the knee, let’s amputate it. Never watch them again after tonight. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #Pinks #SheShed

NEW: You've asked for the text of my $8.647 million dollar claim to Todd Blanche pursuant to the $1.7B slush fund so you can write your own. Here it is: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ive-fi...

Good get fucked.

FUCK ICE NOW AND FOREVER

KAT WON. FUCK ICE.

“Colbert is genuinely heartbroken that the Ed Sullivan Theater—reopened by Letterman, restored to former majesty by Colbert—will sit idle for the foreseeable future. [H]is position as the last steward of The Late Show has seen Colbert lament, ‘I’m not being replaced. This is all just going away.’”

Susan Collins: Pretending to be stupid since 1997. (And reporters pretending to believe her.) #MEpolitics

Hey Donnie! You will *never* be as loved by the nation as this man. Never.

Thrilled to be writing for @avclub.com again. Un-thrilled that @colbertlateshow.bsky.social is ending tonight at the hands of puny men. www.avclub.com/stephen-colb...

CBS is dead to me now... www.mediaite.com/media/tv/jim...

Always get @dennisperkins5.bsky.social to write about late-night www.avclub.com/stephen-colb...

Since acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has confirmed that “Anybody in this country is eligible to apply if they believe they are a victim of weaponization,” I decided to apply for reparations. Here is a template if you want to draft your own demand: shero.substack.com/p/everyone-c...

So once applications open for the $1.7B slush fund, we're all going to apply and break their portal, right?

The NAACP is urging Black athletes and fans to “withhold athletic and financial support” from public universities in states that “have moved to limit, weaken or erase Black voting representation”

Be careful around any man defending Donald Trump. You are not safe with him.

Take a look at our updated top 10 list of Trump's worst corruption scandals 🧵 Ready for deep dive on it all? Look no further...

No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

I am not being hyperbolic when I say the federal government is not currently a legitimate institution and should be treated as a hostile occupying force pillaging our resources as it terrorizes American citizens

So you CAN get reparations you just have to be a reactionary white person who tries to overthrow the government because black votes shouldn’t count

In November I broke this story about Andrew Paul Johnson, a pardoned J6er who molested children and used the promise of reparations to bribe his victims silence.

This should be the headline story on every news publication and telecast including local news every day for several days. But it won’t. It will be shrugged off like so much else by so much of media. The most corrupt thing that has ever come out of the US govt.

J6er’s gonna get repatriations before Black people…

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

First thing I do after every move is join the library.

Pretty my the image of "guy whining about taxes on his private jet" that leapt into my mind right there.

Monday morning! Time for an #SNL Season 51 finale post-mortem, courtesy o' me! latenighter.com/features/rev...

“Theres good cops in the LAPD.” No there is not. They good ones don’t look away when bad cops to bad things. Thats what made the LAPD and so many other police what they are now.

No one in this regime will face federal criminal accountability unless we reform the Supreme Court first. That's what folks should be running on. That should be the lesson of the Jack Smith prosecutions: it doesn't matter who the AG is.

Later this week, the GOP is expected to begin the budget reconciliation process and try to shovel $70 billion more to ICE and Border Patrol (while giving Trump $1 billion for a ballroom). It’s important for your Members of Congress to hear from you right now, and we’ve made it easy to email them.

Of Will Ferrell on the typically shaky Season 51 finale, Dennis Perkins notes, "Ferrell was never anything but engaged and giving his all like it was 1999."

Here's my final review of #SNL Season 51 for the wonderful folks at @latenightercom.bsky.social. Will Ferrell is inimitable. This version of SNL is very imitable. latenighter.com/features/rev...

The Punisher is a trash character.

Not saying it couldn't work, but bringing back Ferrell's W to meet JAJ's Trump is a needle-threading with the highest degree of difficulty. #SNL

On the left is an Onion headline from March. On the right is Reuters, today.

In all my years pulling all-nighters to review #SNL in a timely fashion for you kooks, I've rarely managed the wise pre-show nap. My brain refuses to do as it's told. As a rule.

#SNL #Season51 ends tonight, as does this season's @latenightercom.bsky.social reviews. From me. Here's the very first professional SNL review I wrote—from 2014 for the fine folk at @avclub.com. I write about this show A LOT, is what I'm saying. www.avclub.com/saturday-nig...

I don’t believe that you worship god. I believe that you use “god” as an exterior vessel to carry and legitimize your bigotry

this week's Babylon 5 review is live for my patrons! We're talking about "Legacies," an interesting story hindered by a lackluster guest star performance:

“this Court has so perverted the VRA and the 15th Amendment that they serve almost the opposite of their intended function. These provisions were adopted for the…purpose of guaranteeing the political rights of African-Americans. After Callais…they function to limit black political power.”

Genuinely thought this was @scottaukerman.bsky.social and @pftompkins.bsky.social goofing around.
