As Twitchy reported earlier, even though Stephen Colbert will be on the air until next May, other late-night hosts are rallying around him. Jimmy Fallon, who wrote on Instagram, "Love you, Stephen. F**k you and all your Sheldons, CBS,” is expected to join the pity party.
What's wrong with Sheldon? (Or even "Young Sheldon"?) CBS, which reportedly lost $40 million on a $100 budget for "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," made — and is still making — a ton of money from "The Big Bang Theory." In all likelihood, "The Big Bang Theory" helped subsidize Colbert's money-pit of a show and kept the lights on.
Speaking of Sheldon, actor Jim Parsons was on MSNBC recently saying it was "legally criminal" for the Trump administration to shut down the LGBTQ suicide prevention hotline. "The national LGBTQ+ suicide hotline, run by the Trevor Project, has 30 days before it will shutter, forcing callers to seek out services directly," reported Rolling Stone. Yes, forcing LGBTQ callers to call the same suicide prevention line as everyone else.
Actor Jim Parsons on the Trump administration ending the LGBTQ+ youth sucide prevention hotline: “I think it’s quite literally criminal. It’s one of the decisions where there’s no good reason for it. It feels like it’s only being done in order to make a point that we want to make… pic.twitter.com/cmtFqinQQr

… sure certain people understand they’re not welcome here.”
What was the Trevor Project doing running a suicide hotline for the government? As our own Grateful Calvin reported, "They are some of the worst 'trans activists' in existence, responsible for many of the lies that sucked children into the gender cult, particularly the one they made up to tell parents that 'you can either have a living son or a dead daughter.'" Chad Felix-Greene wrote, "The Trevor Project is an activist organization that actively separates children from their parents. They hold anonymous surveys about suicide for minors as young as 13 and do not inform parents or authorities when a child states they've recently or want to attempt suicide."

Jim Parsons net worth is over $160 million. He could personally fund that hotline for the rest of time. Yet, he won't.

But enough about Parsons … let's get to Jeff Daniels and his podcast with MSNBC's Nicole Wallace.
Actor Jeff Daniels on Donald Trump’s 2nd term: “We’ve lost decency. We’ve lost civility. We’ve lost respect for the rule of law. We’ve normalized verbal abuse. We’ve normalized bullying. Out the window goes character, integrity. We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the… pic.twitter.com/6ghI3moHB1

The post continues:
… worst of us. He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America but being a human being.”
I know I've seen Daniels in a lot of movies, but I can't remember a single one right now. Give me a second to head over to IMDB and look them up. Ah, OK, he was in "Dumb and Dumber" and the sequel. I didn't recognize him from all of the "Dumb and Dumber" memes … he looks a lot older now.
What to say … "we've lost respect for the rule of law" — by finally enforcing the rule of law. Who I've lost respect for is all of the judges who are reflexively trying to block every part of President Donald Trump's agenda, which we, the people, voted for. "We've normalized verbal abuse."
Look, a lot of us Twitchy staffers and freelancers weren't big on Trump in 2016. To be honest, he was probably my 16th favorite out of all 17 Republicans running for the nomination. When he won the nomination, I voted for him, and I was pleasantly surprised. I've since voted for him two more times. I'm incredibly satisfied with his performance in his second term.
"We've lost civility." Tell that to all of the Democrats who've decided to fill their X posts and floor speeches with expletives. Or the ones defending riots in Los Angeles because they were "maybe one or two people." "I don’t know what this so-called violence is all about," says the woman who encouraged her constituents to harass members of Trump's cabinet at gas stations and in grocery stores and restaurants and let them know they're not welcome anywhere.
"He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America but being a human being.”
Of course, Wallace lapped that up.
If liberals could begin to look at Trump as a human being, and not some monstrous authoritarian dictator, they might see a different person.
