Every American needs to see that Trump is refusing to sign a bipartisan bill that would help millions of Americans struggling to afford housing. When he said before “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situations,” he clearly meant it.
I will push Congress to stand against Trump’s threat, and if Trump vetoes it, we must override him.
I still think the most impressive award show performance ever is Neil Patrick Harris's opening number at the 2013 Tonys. like, the ONLY time they were able to successfully complete it was during the live taping. and every celeb in the audience was STUNNED by the end.
here's the video in honor of tonight's Tony Awards lol
BREAKING: LOL! Jimmy Kimmel just won a Peabody Award and used his acceptance speech to laugh in Trump’s face.
Jimmy Kimmel won a Peabody Award last night. And he used his acceptance speech to deliver one of the most gloriously defiant moments in the history of American comedy.
Standing alongside journalists who exposed Trump administration immigration horrors and prison abuse, a teacher who took on Putin, and documentarians covering Vietnam War protests, Kimmel opened with characteristic self-deprecation:
"I've never felt dumber than I do right now, being on stage with this group of people who expose the horrors of ICE, prison abuse, and protests against the Vietnam War, a teacher who took on Putin. I called our president Fatty Shack. And Blob the Builder. And Liger Woods and the Hungry Hungry Hypocrite. Our fondling father, Mara Lardo. Nelson Tandela. And Nostra Dumbass. And somehow we got a Peabody out of that."
But then Kimmel got serious — and the room got quiet.
"Making jokes about the president in America shouldn't win you a prize," he said. "We have the right, guaranteed by the Constitution, to criticize and satirize our leaders. This is a right that many of us take for granted. It's one that I took for granted for the first 57 years of my life until September of last year when the FCC delivered a very unpleasant surprise."
Trump's FCC chief, Brendan Carr, launched an investigation into Kimmel last year as part of the administration's broader campaign to weaponize federal regulators against media critics, leading ABC/Disney to cancel Kimmel’s program, albeit temporarily. But Kimmel said what happened next surprised him even more than the attack itself.
"I watched as millions of people, even some from across the aisle, objected. They spoke up. They marched. They canceled their subscriptions to Star Wars because they refused to allow our freedoms to be bulldozed like the East Wing of the White House. You sent a message that we do care and that we will stand up and that we will not stand by when comedy and journalism and dissent are censored and regulated and criminalized."
He closed with a list of thank-yous that will live forever: "Thank you to Donald Trump, our commander-in-thief, Abriscam Lincoln, Orange Julius Caesar, Greedy McGolfy, Dopey McGropy, and Pumpkin McPornhumper. Thank you for inspiring us to fight for our freedom of speech."
The First Amendment is not negotiable. And apparently, neither is Jimmy Kimmel.
If you believe that Jimmy Kimmel absolutely deserved his Peabody award, please like and share this post everywhere!
My brain at 3 AM: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, NOBODY!"
Fun fact: The Office spent $50,000 just for the song rights to the iconic "Nobody But Me" lip dub cold open. Worth every single penny.

Colbert and Letterman brought back Dave’s "Destroying Stuff" bit from the roof of the Ed Sullivan Theater one last time….and Dave with an epic goodbye for CBS:
"In the words of the great Ed Murrow, 'Good night and good luck, motherf*ckers!'"
40 years ago today, Top Gun was released.
There’s something special about this opening theme. Every time I hear it, I get chills and emotional. No matter how many times I listen to it, that feeling never fades.
I challenged @uber when they added an incorrect toll charge to my ride yesterday going eastbound on Mario Cuomo bridge. They have credited my account. You need to always review your receipts!
@Uber you charged me today for a toll going over Mario Cuomo bridge east bound. Tolls are only charged going westbound. Have tried solving issue on app and by messaging you on X. Waiting 25 plus minutes now!
I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that this is one of the greatest broadcast opens in the history of sports television.
What a perfect 75 seconds. The pictures. The music. The voice of Jim Nantz.
Absolute chills.
