Paramount is pathetic. The people are mighty. Let’s keep singing the no kings anthem at protests every day in the streets: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/no-kings-anthem

Trumps Presidential Library. What a fucking oxymoron. What's it going to be, every Penthouse ever published and Archie comic books? Although Archie comics might be too advanced for him.

I thought more like coloring books with crayons and instruction to color within the lines.

But, who would read the instructions to him?

No one and he would stand there looking like the idiot he is, crying big alligator tears because no one would help him.

This is what we all need to do ... and don't forget to boycott CBS, Meta, Google (use duckduckgo or an alternate Google competitor to search), X, ABC, and Tesla too.

It's the only power we have left. Don't buy products from an business that refuses to stand up for our Constitution and democracy. Remember the power of the Montgomery bus boycott and the grape boycott. For those who think it's too inconvenient, stop and think how inconvenient it will be to lose all civil rights and your freedom of speech.

Shari Redstone just paved her way to hell. I guess money really means everything to these people. It’s worth bribing a tyrant president and selling out your news division. She makes me want to vomit.

All of this bribery and capitulation for merger approval is almost like a big joke, if it weren't so damn pathetic. So the bribe will go to the Trump library. Really? Will it house even 1 book or just the golden albatross?

Probably will have pictures of trump all over the place, amongst the gold and a speech going 24/7 telling how great he is. If you go there, be sure to take your barf bag. No don't take your barf bag, just vomit wherever you want and run out the door, hollering "they made me sick and sue the SOB."

I know one long time viewer of everything CBS, including my local station, does not amount to much! However, I have not and will not turn on this station ever again until a reversal of this “pay for another trump regime” blackmail! Evil and greed every day!

That's why we need to unite a critical mass in boycotting. It's the only power we have left.

Presidential library in this case would contain porn and super hero comic books.

Thanks for breaking down the facts in this case. How do they even know that trump will give approval for the merger, since he is known for taking your money and then turning his back on you?

They don't. It never ceases to amaze me how so many people still do business with him even in the face of multiple convictions and countless examples of his betrayals.

Trump's presidential library is going to be another vehicle for laundering money and getting it into Trump's own pockets one way or another. So paying to the library is paying to Trump, just wait and see.

Of course. It's all just another scam.

At some point in the future, I hope we are able to put trump and his minions on trial for all the crimes they have committed in just these last six months — and next tighten our ethics laws, even on our Congressmen and Senators, so that our children and grandchildren don’t have a repeat of this administration.

There’s not enough time to investigate all of their crimes

Does anyone know if there is any truth to the recent news report that Trumps Presidential Library had burned to the ground and that both books had been completely destroyed. The report goes on to say that President Trump was utterly dismayed because he hadn't finished colouring them.

I canceled my Paramount subscription. Do not need to get entertainment from a chickenshit media outlet.
