I would bet my LIFE CBS is canceling Colbert as part of the Tump settlement.

Fascism is here.

NPR, PBS - gone.

Colbert - gone

It's here, folks.

Plenty of other shows that make fun of Trump are still on the air, not to mention podcasts and other programs.

They simply can’t silence them all- not even Colbert, who could easily reappear in another venue.

His show doesn’t end until next May, so I think this is more business related than Trump appeasement.

His final year of shows should be humdingers…
