A U.S. Military Academy alumni group has cancelled an award ceremony for Tom Hanks, because they're afraid it'll piss off Donny Dipshit.

I mean, the man's an amazing actor and has done a few films with the main story being military or been a producer of. PLUS he apparently does work in support of Vets.

I'd say this is one hell of a slap in the face to him.

As an actor, but more importantly, as a producer.

President Donald Trump on Thursday floated the possibility that TV broadcasters could lose their federal licenses over what he perceives as negative coverage of him, a day after Disney’s ABC yanked “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” off the air.

Speaking to reporters, Trump suggested that the Federal Communications Commission should revoke broadcasters’ licenses, arguing that many late-night hosts appearing on those networks are “against me” and that “they give me only bad publicity, press.”

“I mean, they’re getting a license. I would think maybe their license should be taken away. It will be up to Brendan Carr,” Trump said on Air Force One, referring to the FCC chairman. “I think Brendan Carr is outstanding. He’s a patriot. He loves our country, and he’s a tough guy, so we’ll have to see.”

Maybe Kimmel and Colbert should pulled a Big Beautiful Bill Maher and broke bread with Trump?

If anyone hasn't noticed by now, Trump likes to meet face to face.

You mean, if you don't suck his itty-bitty wiener in public, they deserve government action based on the content of their speech?

Have you measured itty-ditty wiener or are you just projecting your own shortcomings ?

You had a part-time drama teacher leader in Canada...a gameshow host as leader of the free world...and former KGB leading Russia.

And we're all wondering why the world is so screwed up?
