Stephen Colbert silenced after South Park mocks naked Trump in wild Deepfake episode
CBS abruptly canceled Thursday's episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The 10-time Emmy-winning comic joked about the Comedy Central show's naked deepfake portrayal of Trump, who recently signed orders loosening regulations on AI.
In his opening speech, he said, "And I totally agree with this one." "If the government gets involved with private AI, South Park will be unable to create important videos like this one." That message gives me hope.

Colbert showed a QR code for HeTrumpedUs.com that led to the scene and said, "That is an important message of hope for our times. You can check it out right here."
After Wednesday's long-awaited season premiere episode of South Park, "Sermon on the Mount," Colbert spoke out. At the end of the episode, a lawyer tells the townspeople that they'll have to pay the very litigious president $3.5 million and make a PSA with "pro-Trump messaging."
In 2022, co-creator Matt Stone said that Deep Fake: The Movie was "sort of on hold." Co-creator Trey Parker told the Los Angeles Times that the movie was about "this guy who looked exactly like Trump because we deepfakeTrump's face onto him." And the whole thing was funny because Trump ends up naked and getting scolded, which is why it was so funny and right on time.
At the end of the PSA, it says, "Trump: His penis is teeny tiny, but his love for us is big."
The episode didn't hold back when talking about Paramount's recent business with Trump. Parker and Stone signed a new five-year deal with Paramount Global through their company Park County a few hours before.
During the episode, Trump also complained about how big his manhood was in an official picture. He then got into bed with Satan and tried to be sexual with him. People also criticize the president for ending NPR and say he's not on the Epstein list, even though he has been removed from office twice.
Also, Paramount is getting flak for ending The Late Show right after settling with Trump for $16 million, which some lawmakers have looked at as possible bribery. Because Colbert kept making fun of the president, Trump has been happy about the end of the talk show.

Iran: Failed talks and reawakening of remaining fronts
Regional developments suggest the Middle East may be on the verge of a new phase of escalation, with the main headline being Iran's stalled return to negotiations under American conditions and the growing US threat of providing Israel with advanced military support ahead of the next round of confrontation with Tehran. Negotiations surrounding the Gaza ceasefire have also stalled, while US President Donald Trump and his Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, have adopted an increasingly accusatory tone, placing full blame on Hamas for repeatedly undermining the deal. On the ground, this shift is already being translated by Israel into targeted operations and a push to advance the idea of an evacuation of Gaza—an objective Netanyahu's government seems poised to accelerate in the coming phase. This escalation also mirrors the broader Israeli effort in the West Bank to annex large swaths of territory and create a new reality. In this context, the reaction of Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich to French President Emmanuel Macron's call for recognizing a Palestinian state is telling. Smotrich responded by alluding to an expansion of Israeli sovereignty over West Bank land, which could prompt the current Israeli government to fast-track the annexation process, also benefiting from President Trump's dismissal of Macron's remarks as irrelevant, saying: 'What he says doesn't matter.' On the Lebanese front, Hezbollah's messaging shows no sign of compliance with American demands, and disarmament remains far from possible. This opens the door to a potential escalation in Lebanon, especially as Israeli operations continue targeting Hezbollah's arsenal and operatives. In parallel, U.S. diplomatic circles are working toward redefining the UNIFIL mission—transforming it from a monitoring force into a peace-enforcing mission. Such a shift would not only expand UNIFIL's role on the ground but may also trigger direct confrontation with Hezbollah. Meanwhile, in Syria, the recent clashes in Sweida marked a major turning point, but it is Israel's growing involvement that signals real concern. Israel fears that areas bordering the Golan Heights could spiral into lawlessness and become launchpads for destabilizing operations targeting its territory. In this environment of chaos, Iran and its proxies could find the perfect opportunity to return and re-establish an operational presence against Israel. In Yemen, the front remains active. The Houthis continue to launch missile attacks toward Israel. While these strikes have caused minimal physical damage so far, they remain a strategic concern. This is Israel's most difficult front—its most impenetrable from an intelligence standpoint—making it Iran's most useful tool to maintain a threatening atmosphere. For Tehran, Yemen provides a valuable pressure valve, helping to preserve some level of deterrence, especially as Israel shifts its posture from defence to direct strikes inside Iranian territory during and after the recent 12-day war. With diplomatic efforts stalled on all fronts—from Gaza to Lebanon, Yemen, and Iran—Iran is likely to seek ways to reduce pressure through the last remaining levers it holds. The regional fronts it once used to threaten Israel have been largely contained. The option of forcing confrontation on Israel's borders or from within, as seen on October 7, is no longer viable. In fact, Israel has reversed the equation by taking the confrontation directly into Iran. Thus, easing pressure today may come through Iran's activation of the remaining capacity of its regional proxies, mobilizing pressure from border fronts or escalating its missile capabilities—particularly from Yemen. Tehran's likely course is to activate whichever front offers maximum leverage as it prepares for the next round of negotiations.

We sent $60 million in food aid to Gaza, but no one thanked us, says Trump
US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that his administration had allocated USD 60 million in aid to send food into Gaza two weeks ago, but added that 'no one thanked us.' In remarks made during a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Trump said: 'We delivered USD 60 million worth of food into Gaza. It got in. No one thanked us. Not Hamas, not anyone.' Trump also downplayed the severity of the humanitarian situation in Gaza, saying: 'I don't think there's a famine in Gaza". He went on to describe the situation on the ground as chaotic and mismanaged: 'People are stealing the food, they're stealing the money, they're stealing the money for the food, they're stealing weapons, they're stealing everything. It's a mess. That whole place is a mess.' The president also reiterated his stance on "Israeli" captives held by Hamas: 'Hamas must release the hostages and detainees. We've already brought most of them back.' 'It's up to Israel now. Israel has to make a decision about Gaza.'
