One of the most decent, highly intelligent and
courageous men in America trashed by one of
the most demented, vindictive and ignorant ones
Shame on those who are allowing him to destroy
Western values
BREAKING: “PUT TO SLEEP” — Trump calls for Stephen Colbert’s head in late-night meltdown.
Last night, after CBS aired the Kennedy Center Honors, a pretaped special hosted by none other than Donald Trump from the freshly rebranded — and legally questionable — “Trump Kennedy Center,” Donald Trump had a full-blown public mental breakdown.
For once, his target wasn’t a prosecutor, a judge, or a foreign leader. It was Stephen Colbert, America’s most relentless late-night satirist, who once again got under Trump’s skin so badly that the emotionally unstable Commander-in-Chief erupted online in an explosive late-night rage.
After CBS aired a rerun of The Late Show, Trump went into a rampage on Truth Social, calling Colbert a “pathetic trainwreck” and demanding the network “put him to sleep.” Yes, that’s the phrase Trump decided to use. Not cancel. Not retire. “Put him to sleep.” Like an unwanted pet.
Unfortunately, the rant didn’t stop there. Trump accused Colbert of having “no talent,” mocked his ratings, and declared that CBS — along with ABC and NBC — should have their broadcast licenses revoked for daring to air criticism of him. He then capped the tirade by wishing everyone a “Merry Christmas,” as if threatening media figures were just part of the holiday cheer.
The meltdown came just days after Colbert skewered Trump on-air for his ego-driven takeover of the Kennedy Center and his obsession with being seen as a cultural icon. Colbert mocked Trump’s hunger for applause, joking that the former president wants to run Broadway like a personal vanity project. The jokes clearly landed — and Trump clearly couldn’t take it.
Even by Trump standards, the outburst was unhinged. Calling for the silencing of comedians, invoking violent imagery, and demanding government punishment for speech he doesn’t like isn’t just thin-skinned — it’s authoritarian.
CBS has already announced The Late Show will end next year, citing industry economics, not politics. But Trump’s response revealed something deeper: a fixation on revenge, an inability to tolerate mockery, and a willingness to use government power to punish critics.
This wasn’t about ratings. It wasn’t about comedy. It was about a man who cannot stand being laughed at — and who wants to make sure no one ever does again.
Trump can try to rename the Kennedy Center after himself, but — at this point, at least — he still cannot cancel the First Amendment. And every unhinged post just proves Colbert’s point: the jokes about the infinitely mockable Alzheimer’s patient in the White House are not cruel, they are documentary.

1. Just like he doesn’t have the authority to change the name of The Department of Defense, he doesn’t have the authority to change the name of the Kennedy Center.
2. More importantly, it’s 25th Amendment time. It’s well past the time to remove @realDonaldTrump from office. He’s mentally unfit to be president, and he’s a clear & present danger to this country.

We know exactly what he is but he insists on reminding us with every breath.
Classless,hatefilled,racist, degenerate,ultra-narcissist,thief.
30 percent of America still supports him.
Such sadness and shame.

After a year of wrecking the economy and taking your money, Donald Trump just confessed that you've been paying for his disastrous tariffs. Working families can’t afford any more.

The only thing worse than a narcissistic sociopath is an unbelievably petty narcissistic sociopath.

Donald Trump is a wannabe dictator, and he’s not even trying to hide it. Let’s hope more and more Americans wake up to the danger he poses.

The President of the United States just called for the arrest of a sitting Governor.
This is a day I hoped I would never see in America.
I don’t care if you’re a Democrat or a Republican this is a line we cannot cross as a nation — this is an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism.

Gallego to Hegseth: "You will never ever be half the man that Sen. Kelly is. You, sir, are a coward. And the fact that you are following this order from the president shows how big of a coward you are. I can't wait until you are no longer the secretary of defense."

Threatening a U.S. Senator because you don’t like what he said is never acceptable—especially when all he said is that troops should follow the law.
When I was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. I upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since I retired – which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents.
In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much.
Secretary Hegseth’s tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President’s posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death.
If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution.

Vile nonsense.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT:
The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconduct against Captain Mark Kelly, USN (Ret.). In accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 688, and other applicable regulations, a thorough review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, which may include recall to active duty for court-martial proceedings or administrative measures. This matter will be handled in compliance with military law, ensuring due process and impartiality. Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings.
The Department of War reminds all individuals that military retirees remain subject to the UCMJ for applicable offenses, and federal laws such as 18 U.S.C. § 2387 prohibit actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces. Any violations will be addressed through appropriate legal channels.

Genuine question: has any GOP member of house or senate spoken out about the Dept of defense and Hegseth threatening @SenMarkKelly with lawfare? Beyond disturbing
Especially any veterans?
Shame on all those who stay silent

Secretary Kennedy has spent his time in office spreading doubt about vaccines.
Now measles is back.
He is a threat to our health and must be fired immediately.
