Say goodbye to Stephen Colbert and then say goodbye to CBS. A network that loses Colbert loses its cultural relevance. Period. Please repost if you agree! #StephenColbert #Colbert #CBS

Tonight we congratulate our friend Stephen Colbert and his writers, staff and crew for eleven years of excellence. Watch Colbert’s finale tonight, and then never watch CBS again.

Today I spoke with families in Hollis, Queens, many of whom say their lives and homes were upended by devastating flooding last night. I also met the city workers and emergency responders who are working around the clock to get this community back up on its feet.

We already have legal processes for malicious or wrongful prosecution, abuse of process, wtf-ever any Capitol-stormin’ loser wants to argue. If it’s real on a case facts basis in a court of law—not just RW Facebook comment likes—they win. But they aren’t, so these nitwits need Trump as judge & jury.

Three neighbors say the New Jersey Republican‘s two-story Tudor-style house has been dark for weeks. Further still, they can’t recall the last time the last time they saw his wife walking the family dog, or the last time her car was parked in the driveway. trib.al/j1teDJH

AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

Absolute fucking morons who upturned my life for no reason. They will see justice.

Time and again, Trump has failed to deliver on his promise to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. The latest test – will his regulators allow a bank to charge interest rates of more than 100% to families across America already struggling with rising costs?

Kevin O'Leary should have to drink it.

While most Americans can’t decide to skip out & start their vacations early because they have tough decisions at work, Republicans in the Senate are going home earlier than scheduled. Aka abandoning a key budget vote so they wouldn’t also have to vote on the slush fund. trib.al/TZB6RIr

The Ds are pouncing on this faster than I expected.

Hey, Mitch. You could have prevented ALL THIS by voting to convict him and bar him from holding office again. Asshole.

Good luck to all those eligible to enter

Donald Trump has done a lot of terrible things to this country over the last decade. But here’s what I think is most insidious of all: Trump has taught Americans that cruelty is strength, that resentment is identity, and that hating other people somehow makes you superior.

Republican healthcare plan is storming the capital & bear-spraying a cop so you get $ to buy chemo for your daughter

Corrupt "Supreme Court" Scandals, Bribes & Corruption

Effective tax rate paid by Jeff Bezos from 2014 to 2018: 0.98% Effective 2025 federal tax rate paid by Amazon: 1.4% Typical tax rate paid by the average American: 14.5% Just thought I should point that out.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

"President Donald Trump is chasing the kind of regime-altering triumph in Cuba that has eluded him in Iran. But any move toward yet more action by the stretched US armed forces would come with high political and military risks," writes Stephen Collinson | Analysis https://cnn.it/3PzJTMk

The funny-but-not-funny part of all this is the person looting taxpayers for his own personal gain used to have the political slogan… <wait for it…waaaaaait for it> “Stop the Steal”

Gas is $5 and Republicans are spending their time passing bills that ban pronouns in middle schools.

Well done, MAGA. Well done, my former Republican congressional & right wing media colleagues. Your cowardice, your fear, your caring only about ratings/audience/votes/getting elected/staying in power, your cultish devotion to a corrupt, lawless sociopath got us here. Well done. Hope you’re proud.👇

New in PN: Trump's $1.8b slush fund could turn into giant can of worms "The entire exercise is an elaborate troll. It is, as many people have commented, a vehicle for Trump to pay his supporters for the last attack, and maybe prepay for the next one using tax dollars. It’s also flagrantly illegal."

This is only the beginning. He has no plans to leave office or allow free elections. Nor are his plans hidden—they're all unfolding in plain sight. The Insurrection never ended and the Christofascists won't stop until our democracy is gone. Choose who you'll be in this moment.

Republican voters in Kentucky who presumably spent much of 2024 banging on about Epstein just ejected from Congress their own Republican congressman, who helped get the Epstein files out, in order to please the close friend of Epstein, Donald Trump.

Stephen Colbert has been one of the most thoughtful, funny, and genuinely decent people on television. I’ve always enjoyed his work — especially the Colbert Report. Here’s a clip from when I was a guest back in 2010.

This is an unprecedented level of corruption. Trump is forcing the government to drop ALL tax audits of him, his family, and his businesses—giving him FULL IMMUNITY from prosecution. What is Trump hiding from the American people? Congress must step up and stop this corruption.

He's not leaving, folks.

The allegations of decades-old abuse are mounting, adding credence to the stories of early abuse and Epstein’s trips outside the U.S. in the 1970s and ‘80s. #EpsteinFiles www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

The Quran teaches that to save one life is to save all humanity. At the San Diego Islamic center today, Brother Amin Abdullah saved countless lives by giving his. This is his final social media post. His courage saved humanity. May Almighty Allah the Creator embrace him in His mercy. #CourageNow

A “fun” thing about the 1776 number is it makes it more clear how much the settlement agreement is corrupt. Todd Blanche signed his name to an official government document claiming this figure was “based on the projected valuation of future claimants’ claims,” which is clearly, obviously, a lie.

In 2025, HHS issued stop work order for federal research lab that studies Ebola virus and other deadly pathogens and fired its director. This lab was a world leader in accelerating development therapies and vaccines for Ebola and other viruses. 1/ www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

Kamala Harris would not steal $1.8 Billion of our tax money to give to White Nationalist traitors.

CBS backlash has pushed Colbert to 2.70 million viewers. Weiss is now faced with canceling the MOST WATCHED PROGRAM in the late-night time slot. Fire her - keep Colbert is the answer.

Astonishing that the Attorney General of the United States has put the DOJ's name on a fictional "settlement" to rip off taxpayers and pay billions to Trump, his family, and his friends.

In the richest city in the richest country in the history of the world, nobody should be going hungry. That's why we're opening five city-owned grocery stores, one in each borough, starting with The Bronx. Lower Prices. Good food. Publicly owned. Hunts Point next year. Every borough by 2029.

the president is raiding the treasury to put your tax dollars into this mans personal checking account as a reward for what hes doing in this picture

"She had envisioned the end of her senior year as a celebration. Instead, she has spent months waging a stubborn campaign against the planned ICE detention center near her school..." www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...

This is insane. The terms of DOJ's slush fund appear to transfer control of $1.8 billion beyond US government entirely. Unless I'm misreading this, that would circumvent Congress *entirely* and put the money outside of *any* constitutional and/or legal constraints ofany kind. Straight up theft.

If I were the opposition party I'd be saying anyone involved in creating this corrupt scheme will be prosecuted but also anyone accepting payments from it will at minimum be required to pay back the full sum with interest

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

SNL: Jeffrey Epstein Ghost Cold Open 5/17/26 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzqJ...

We've seen the largest attack on multiracial democracy in a generation as well as their assault on women, girls, LGBTQ community. Now we're seeing the assault on civil rights and voting rights. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. Each of us needs to step up and do our part.

Firefighters say setting fires on purpose is one of the best ways to protect against massive wildfires later. But the Trump administration is banning or stalling preventative burning across the U.S. n.pr/4nushOs
