The Hollywood Reporter said Stephen Colbert's cancellation by CBS is a sign of the times for the TV networks. Colbert lost $40 million a year for CBS, but defenders say it was the top-rated late night talk show on broadcast TV. But nowadays, that's like being valedictorian at a special needs school.

Ellen DeGeneres and her partner, Portia de Rossi, listed their rural estate in southern England for $30 million. Their move to the Cotswald river valley was spoiled last year when rainstorms flooded the valley. The flood surprised the locals who thought the river would hold with the addition of two dikes.

The U.S. Olympic Committees said it'll honor Trump's request and refuse to allow transgender women to compete in women's sports the 2028 Olympics. In the '76 Games Bruce Jenner let leak his future plans to transition. He won the Men's Decathlon while running backwards and in high heels.

Hollywood hosted the grand opening of Elon Musk's Tesla Diner and Drive-in Tuesday that features his robot Optimus, charging stations and a movie theater. For Tesla drivers, the charging stations are both welcome and necessary. Only rap star Chris Brown gets more battery charges in a year.

Coca-Cola will introduce Coke with cane sugar as President Trump urged them to do. So now that Coca-Cola is releasing a Trump-approved version using real sugar cane, are they going to call it Coke-Cain? The first time I ever tried a Coke I was 3 and the carbonation nearly killed my sinuses.

Hunter Biden gave a roaring interview Monday in which he went wild against Democrats who betrayed his dad. In 2018 Hunter was thrown out of an L.A. underground sex nightclub for being too creepy. You know you're in trouble when a guy dressed like Satan says I don't feel comfortable here.

Hunter Biden ranted in a three-hour interview on You Tube's Channel 5 Monday in which he insisted his dad could have defeated Trump. They have different governing styles. This year, President Trump hit the ground running and when President Biden hit the ground, he just stayed there.

Tulsi Gabbard is releasing documents she says prove Barack Obama poison-pilled Trump's first term by setting him up for the Russia hoax, accusing the former president of treason. Barack has an ironclad defense. You can't commit treason against the United States if you were born in Kenya.

President Trump addressed reporters Tuesday to announce he's finally concluded a trade deal with Japan hours after he agreed to trade deals with the Philippines and Indonesia. Trump dealt with Indonesia, then the Philippines and then Japan in only 4 hours. Hell, it took Douglas MacArthur 4 years.

San Diego's mayor and city council agreed Tuesday to clear away the homeless encampments that have sprung up all alongside the city's massive freeways. The problem is even worse up in the Bay Area. The homeless situation in San Francisco is so bad that Uber picks you up in a shopping cart.

L.A. Mayor Bass accused ICE of acting like storm troopers in rounding up illegal aliens. She charged that ICE has been scooping people off the streets of L.A. simply because they have brown skin. To save himself from a flight to El Salvador and back, George Hamilton just switched to sunscreen.
