Trump is taking on the late night show hosts as we all have seen. The censorship of public tv shows is what he is going after. Next, it will be all tv shows host who are not aligned with Trump and his despicable behavior. The media is next. And after Trump is done? Well have only a couple of news outlets or sources which will follow Trumps propagandist narrative and view.
This country has never seen anything like this and its only go to get worse.
Be careful of your posts on Facebook and other social platforms! You maybe next?

(807 posts)for any party to control much of a share, try as they might. And few watch late night tv since hosts stopped being funny after Leno and Letterman.
But, youre not wrong to warn about online speech. What the UK government has started shouldnt frighten us all. Mere words deemed offensive to some can have one jailed.

(517 posts)"In his Fourth of July speech in 2020 at Mount Rushmore, speaking of the "evil people" on the left, Trump said that "one of their political weapons is 'cancel culture' driving people from their jobs, shaming dissenters and demanding total submission from anyone who disagrees. This is the very definition of totalitarianism, and it is completely alien to our culture and our values, and it has absolutely no place in the United States."
