If wealthy cishet white male celebrities with well rated shows like Colbert and Kimmel aren't allowed to make rather tame jokes about the government and the party in power, who IS allowed to dissent, and in what forms?

Can I just say: I love that Paul chose a McLennon coded Beatles photo to give Stephen Colbert as a gift? 🫶

Like, of allll the pictures that exist of the Beatles’ historic appearances on the Ed Sullivan Show, Paul went with 1 that features him & John locking eyes behind George’s back…… never change, Macca 🙂‍↕️🥹

Stephen Colbert: Would you like to do Broadway? Gaga: "I would like to do many things, yeah, all of these things, but, what I really want is to be a mom. That's my next starring role, I hope."

"In his appearance on "The Late Show" on May 14, Letterman, a hero to late-night hosts (and a lot of critics), renewed one of his old bits as he and Colbert tossed office furniture off the roof of a building ― this time aiming for the CBS logo. At the end, Letterman channeled Edward R. Murrow, the famous CBS journalist, with a twist: "To the folks at CBS, in the words of the great Ed Murrow, good night, and good luck, (expletive)." John Oliver repeated the phrase on the May 17 episode of "Last Week with John Oliver."

Colbert's final guests include Jon Stewart, Steven Spielberg, performances by David Byrne and Bruce Springsteen and some guests that haven't been revealed. Way back when, when Colbert hosted "The Colbert Report" on Comedy Central, he played a parody of a Sean Hannity-like dim-bulb conservative talk-show host. On his first episode, in 2005, he introduced the word "truthiness" ― trusting in something because it feels like it's true, not because the facts support it.

It was a joke, a brilliant one. Unfortunately, it's turned out to be true, too. As in factually true. The real-life Colbert fought against truthiness. He may have lost his job, but at least he didn't lose his soul."

This is the interview Trump and the GOP don't want you to see.

I hold no brief with religion and firmly believe it must be kept out of politics, but Talarico at least espouses the good bits of it -- you know, loving the neighbour, welcoming the stranger, instead of the the Christian nationalists' shibboleths of abortion, gay marriage, and gender reassignment.

Thank you Stephen Colbert for providing a pivotal voice in late night television fighting against corporate warlords and fascism regime. We hope you’re just getting started on the fight http://news.usaunify.org/TSflV2

This might be one of the most loaded things I’ve ever seen her say. People, she’s spelling it out right there! 😂
