    He and Colbert and Stewart should legit start a new network and just constantly troll the regime. Maybe get Al Franken too - I’m still pretty livid about how he got character assassinated by the fucking DNC.

    Hell, maybe they can rope in some actual progressive members of congress (AOC, Tlaib, Sanders, Porter, and so on - but absolutely not the ones who only pay lip service, and fucking NONE of the old guard or corporatists or neoliberals or political consultant class) and seriously bootstrap an actual progressive party to challenge and supplant the Democratic Party. If they were to do that, I’d definitely be willing volunteer my time and expertise to help them make it work.

        You think the FCC could stop it? None of the openly fascist owned media will carry it regardless of the money it might make them. Because it isn’t about making money it’s about controlling the narrative.

        They should pool their funds and set up streams online. YouTube, Floatplane, peer tube, Patreon, merch etc. Each one of them is pretty well set for life. They can be their own bosses and do what they love.

        I generally watched their monologues and segments on YouTube anyway. No one has the time or interest in watching the desert of entertainment content on broadcast tv anymore anyhow.
