It’s a shame that he and other late night TV hosts have done a better job of calling out Trump than some elected Democrats.
The only thing a dictator hates more than ridicule is when people laugh at him. I guess watching a comedian impersonate Trump every night hurts his little feelings.
Trump can’t turn it off so he’s got to cancel Colbert to kick the habit.
Make no mistake about it, CBS canceling Colbert is no coincidence. Trump silences critics, rewrites culture, and demands loyalty, and payoffs. His vendetta is shaping a dark, dystopian future. Authoritarianism is advancing!
A society that doesn’t think critically and doesn’t laugh at power is a society ripe for authoritarian rule. I'm wearing this "We will NOT comply with tyranny" t-shirt right now 👇
CBS could tell Colbert to hit the bricks immediately, as long as they pay him. The money is spent regardless, it just depends on how much more damage he could do on the air.
Who watches CBS anyway? They don't deserve Colbert's brilliance; they can go to hell. I'm sure somebody, and a much better body, is signing him in as I write this.
It would be wonderful if Colbert came to Meidas! It would be good for Americans! Especially those who value Truth, real Justice, the Constitution and The Rule of Law!
He also might be thinking it's time to hang it up. If I was him, at 61 years old (I am three days older than him :) ), I'd find a sturdy beach chair and watch the occupier implode. Maybe choose projects here and there if I felt like it.
He seems like a person that enjoys what he does, maybe it would be a fun project to sometimes hang out here. We sure could use his talent if it were doable & we sure could use a laugh. It will be glorious to see in a new age come with serious ethics & truth along with wonderful the sound of laughter that is real humor...not cruelty called jokes.
I'd vote for Steven Colbert for POTUS. He's smart and capable. Low information voters look for someone whose name they know. A big reason why Trump was even considered. Look at RFK Jr. What a fool he is, but he has the famous name.
The Nazis are involved in 50% of pending voting and election cases with deep pockets to fund them The DOJ has now demanded voter rolls from 9 states in order to assure themselves that all the voters are “legitimate” all the while harvesting personal data that they can use to attack registered voters and potentially knock them off the rolls
Further a midterm gerrymandering card is being played out in Texas and compliant Nazis in the state legislature are hard at work to comply with Cheeto’s demand This is also being played out in other red states
In March Cheeto, knowing his executive orders would be unpopular, launched his SAVE America executive which would disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters across the country Courts issued an injunction of that order but that has not stopped legislators from red states to enact the executive order into their legislation
WE the People need to organize and let our friends, neighbors, relatives, and family know about this The attack on American voting rights began as Nazi propaganda that “we just want to have free and fair elections” to actual election subversion and taking away the right to vote The Nazis will stop at nothing to undermine the right to vote and reduce the ability of American citizens to exercise their choice
It’s up to all of us to stop this election subversion by planning a mass turnout in 2026
Coast to coast NOKINGS protests every weekend...........Complet buisness and school walk outs every week. Shut down the entire nation.....zero excuses!!!
Except every State is checking the voting rolls NOW & 9 states already are throwing out your name if you voted for any Democrat so they’ll trash it. Cunning, Calculating, Cruel & CORRUPT‼️
As a Canuck, can I suggest you ALL do IN PERSON PAPER BALLOTS. No mail in ballots. No electronic voting. Less to muck around with. Is this possible?? Hopefully. 🇨🇦 🍁 ❤️
This is true, Oregon and Washington votes only by mail. No one's asked for our voting data yet, as far as I know.
However, with the voting machines problem (the company in charge of keeping the machines in order removed the hash bit from some machines. This will allow anyone to inject malicious code into them).
I'm hearing talk of a 3-day nationwide work shutdown.
It also would - possibly - prevent hacking of tabulation software. That's been a problem for years and it doesn't seem like the good people have ever taken it seriously, possibly because the other party poisoned the term 'voter fraud.' But hacking the software is _election_ fraud: it's large scale, remote, changeable on the fly, etc. Voter fraud (which there's always been very little evidence of) is one voter at a time.
We need to get ourselves together north of this ballooning insanity. There is zero chance I will be travelling to the US........ever again. This hoser is headed for europe.
I believe Stephen Colbert will want something similar to what he has—a great studio, live audience, his team of writers and his band. He is an honorable man and will want to save all their jobs. Plus he and his team
stimulate each other’s creativity, and he learns so much from his audience—what makes them laugh and what they care about.
Maybe he will join with other comedians and purchase a studio or do something completely unexpected. I just hope he doesn’t give up because we need him.🥰
Together, they might be able to purchase an entire studio with 3 stages and each of them air their shows online from the same studio. They could air them on youtube, substack and other places that could reach audiences around the world! And they could each have their own band and writers. They could reach hundreds of millions of people instead of
Jimmy Kimmel is also a great watch. He too has great writers. I would love to see Seth, Stephen and Jimmy band together. Perhaps rotating nights with one night together. I totally agree...WE NEED THEM! Even if they purchased a studio....where would it air? It's obvious that any station would be next in turmeric trump's crosshairs.
This is so devastating and cannot stand mainstream media. I would also like to see Legal AF get an interview with Maureen Comey - hopefully she can shed some light w/o getting into any legal trouble. Ben, Jordy, Brett - thank you!
I don't know that it's devastating for Stephen Colbert, he is multi-talented, he will survive this shameful act by CBS. They have essentially set him free!! He is liquid gold!! His future looks even brighter!! HBO will offer him a show, etc. The options are boundless.
There is some truth to the idea that ad revenue for late nights shows has dropped significantly. However, the timing of the deal is suspect. Time for Colbert to create his own company and take it on the road to wherever its' welcome. Maybe here.
And if we play our cards right, I can foresee other avenues related to unifying the geopolitical landscape for a new country that is free of the threat the white nationalists and GOP has brought onto our nation.
Colbert. You deserve high dollars where ever go. Love your show😍
I love Colbert!

I'm boycotting EVERYTHING CBS except Colbert till May 2026.
After that -- no more CBS.
I've written to let them and will continue to write to them.
Dam' both CBS and 47.
I'm hoping Colbert ups the skewering of this pathetic regime from now until May 2026; what's he got to lose? Stick it to 'em, Stephen!!
Oh, yes... he will, and this might be his best season, making CBS realize the mistake they made letting him go.
Like Stephen said in his "announcement" on Thursday the next 10 months "will be fun". I, for one, will be looking forward to his show.
Trump told them to fire him
CBS could tell Colbert to hit the bricks immediately, as long as they pay him. The money is spent regardless, it just depends on how much more damage he could do on the air.
Meidas will pick him up
I’m going to do that too. CBS can go into the bucket along with some other things I’ve boycotted 👍
So am I! Everything except Colbert! Canceled my Paramount Plus. FDT!💩💩💩💩💩😡
Ditto - I ditched paramount!
I was thinking the exact same thing, Cheryl. Colbert has a ton of viewers and if everybody did that it may have a notable impact.
Who watches CBS anyway? They don't deserve Colbert's brilliance; they can go to hell. I'm sure somebody, and a much better body, is signing him in as I write this.
Me too
They cancelled him at trumps request
I think it was at 47's demand -- THAT is what makes it so heinous.
At 47's demand, I think. B@st@rds.
Let me tell you something. These stupid corporations will realize very soon that if they turn away their viewers, it's not a good thing.
He's an abuser. If you cave to an abuser, the abuse will only get worse.
It would be wonderful if Colbert came to Meidas! It would be good for Americans! Especially those who value Truth, real Justice, the Constitution and The Rule of Law!
Yes. I think Colbert has always been somewhat of a politician. Maybe now this tendency will become stronger.
Ugh he has dimentia and lied about his health. I'm sure he has diabetes we know he's had a brain issue we saw it stage
Onstage where he slurred his words
Colbert doesn’t need more multi millions. Nobody does. But he’d be a great person to have on Meidas.
How about all those billionaires that are running our country??
And destroying it for THEIR benefit
They don't need more money, either.
He also might be thinking it's time to hang it up. If I was him, at 61 years old (I am three days older than him :) ), I'd find a sturdy beach chair and watch the occupier implode. Maybe choose projects here and there if I felt like it.
He seems like a person that enjoys what he does, maybe it would be a fun project to sometimes hang out here. We sure could use his talent if it were doable & we sure could use a laugh. It will be glorious to see in a new age come with serious ethics & truth along with wonderful the sound of laughter that is real humor...not cruelty called jokes.
I was thinking it's a question of how much he enjoys working and what else he might like to do.
Be great if we could stop thinking in terms of capitalism but yeah seems like he doesn’t deserve this fascist nonsense
Making money, getting money, having money - that is
the center of the cyclone of deetee...along with not being
laughed at. Nothing else registers, but wait - there's more to life...
👏😂
Likewise his awesome band and the rest of the 200 staff who make his show happen.
I've begun sending CBS daily updates of what I'm not watching on their network.
Today's message was:
Subject: What I didn't watch today
Message:
Today I didn't watch:
CBS Saturday Morning,
CBS Evening News,
48 Hours, or any other of your shows.
Sincerely loathe you,
Cheryl
I'll continue to do this. If anyone wants the email address to which comments can be sent, it's:
support.cbsentertainment@cbsinteractive.com
Boycotts work.
He should run against Linsey Graham in SC! He already has a PAC that he started back in his Colbert Report days.
The Pope might campaign for him!
Let’s flood social media with this idea! I have a photo on my SubStack page you can take a screen shot and post everywhere!
I'd vote for Steven Colbert for POTUS. He's smart and capable. Low information voters look for someone whose name they know. A big reason why Trump was even considered. Look at RFK Jr. What a fool he is, but he has the famous name.
I might to cast a vote in S.C....and have it count!
That hasn't happened since JC in '76.
This is a great suggestion.
Yes!!! Run Colbert run!
good idea Erica!!
I must confess it’s not my idea, I copied it from Facebook. I’m trying to post it where ever I see a substack about Colbert.
Nazi Voting War Machine Rolling Toward 2026
The Nazis are involved in 50% of pending voting and election cases with deep pockets to fund them The DOJ has now demanded voter rolls from 9 states in order to assure themselves that all the voters are “legitimate” all the while harvesting personal data that they can use to attack registered voters and potentially knock them off the rolls

Yep, the fascist regime is rolling in and doing everything they can to destroy this country
Not just corrupt but Nazi’s from HELL! Slime🐉
🍊💩! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Help people get registered! Get people to the polls!
I LOVE voting by mail! Been doing it for over 50+ years!
I’ve observed vote counting at election headquarters! Couldn’t be safer! Cameras everywhere!👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍
Coast to coast NOKINGS protests every weekend...........Complet buisness and school walk outs every week. Shut down the entire nation.....zero excuses!!!
Or live in tyranny for the rest of your lives
Call any member of Congress especially republicans!
202 225 3121 or 202 224 3121
They need to hear that they are going down!
Except every State is checking the voting rolls NOW & 9 states already are throwing out your name if you voted for any Democrat so they’ll trash it. Cunning, Calculating, Cruel & CORRUPT‼️
I just got my ballot for county state elections. We vote by mail for over 40ish years. I’ve actually observed election counting. Cameras everywhere!
As a Canuck, can I suggest you ALL do IN PERSON PAPER BALLOTS. No mail in ballots. No electronic voting. Less to muck around with. Is this possible?? Hopefully. 🇨🇦 🍁 ❤️
Some states like Oregon and Washington are ONLY mail in voting.

thanks for your comment...not sure it's possible but will try to dig deeper
Good 💡 idea thanks for your support, Canada 🇨🇦
Or if all else fails, stock up and go to the range for target practice.
Would love it if he did join Meidas 😍
Stephen Colbert is a legend and we need him! CBS is trashed.
Done
DONE WITH CBS!!! Collaborator cowards
Boycott Paramount plus, cancel those streaming subscriptions
I already did, right after the "60 Minutes" fiasco!
YES!
I already did!
I believe Stephen Colbert will want something similar to what he has—a great studio, live audience, his team of writers and his band. He is an honorable man and will want to save all their jobs. Plus he and his team
stimulate each other’s creativity, and he learns so much from his audience—what makes them laugh and what they care about.

Legends don't give up, but I love your idea!
Melanie Becnel,
Together, they might be able to purchase an entire studio with 3 stages and each of them air their shows online from the same studio. They could air them on youtube, substack and other places that could reach audiences around the world! And they could each have their own band and writers. They could reach hundreds of millions of people instead of
millions.
Jimmy Kimmel is also a great watch. He too has great writers. I would love to see Seth, Stephen and Jimmy band together. Perhaps rotating nights with one night together. I totally agree...WE NEED THEM! Even if they purchased a studio....where would it air? It's obvious that any station would be next in turmeric trump's crosshairs.
He gestalt of his energy 👏 🙌 from a live audience!
Steven Colbert we’d love to hear from you!!
You are amazing
Colbert deserves a platform! <3
He certainly does. He has been my favorite for many years and I feel very sad picturing him gone next year.
Mine too!😥💙💙💙💙
He’ll state his case quite well, I believe, over the next ten months. Can’t wait!
I will sorely miss Stephen.
I. Just dropped paramount from my streaming choices.
Thank you Ben and brothers!
Stephanie Schulman
Will miss my Paramount Plus Star Trek episodes! Will wait for them to come out on DVD
Also a Trek fan... but I can also wait.
This is so devastating and cannot stand mainstream media. I would also like to see Legal AF get an interview with Maureen Comey - hopefully she can shed some light w/o getting into any legal trouble. Ben, Jordy, Brett - thank you!
I don't know that it's devastating for Stephen Colbert, he is multi-talented, he will survive this shameful act by CBS. They have essentially set him free!! He is liquid gold!! His future looks even brighter!! HBO will offer him a show, etc. The options are boundless.
Yes to that interview!!!
There is some truth to the idea that ad revenue for late nights shows has dropped significantly. However, the timing of the deal is suspect. Time for Colbert to create his own company and take it on the road to wherever its' welcome. Maybe here.
It was political! Who's afraid of the Big, Bad Jerk!
That
would be AMAAAAAAZING!
Good work, Ben!
Canceled Paramount + and no longer watch CBS News. I clearly get the uncensored news from Substack. Thanks Meidas for your indepth coverage 👍 👏
Every American should cancel their cable tv!! Cut Trumpcult propaganda off at the knees.
No excuses.
Drastic action NOW or live in tyranny forever you guys
We have our elbows up and getting our euro/commonwealth connections hotwired major.
Never 51.....not happening!!!
Good job! You’re now a player who can make a difference in what happens ahead.
And if we play our cards right, I can foresee other avenues related to unifying the geopolitical landscape for a new country that is free of the threat the white nationalists and GOP has brought onto our nation.
Remember that Substack video which proposed the Blue Card/ReCard States?
Here’s a copy and hope that you’ll share it.
