Last week, we learned that The Late Show will be ending in May.

And I want to thank everybody who reached out to me over the weekend, including one text from an unknown number offering a high-paying IT work-from-home job for only two to three hours a day.

And I will be sending you my routing number in May.

Over the weekend, it sunk in that they're killing off our show.

And now, for the next ten months, the gloves are off.

I can finally speak unvarnished truth to power and say what I really think about Donald Trump, starting right now.

Doesn't seem to have, like, the skill set.

Doesn't have the skill set to be president.

You know, just not a good fit, that's all.

People have been speculating about the timing of this decision from Paramount, and they're pointing out the last Monday, just two days before my cancellation, I delivered a blistering monologue in which I showed the courage to have a mustache.

I mean, obviously, CBS saw my upper lip and, boom, canceled.

That's why the Pringles guy lost his show.

Pringles guy doesn't have a show anymore.

But don't worry, this beautiful theater will live on as the historic Ed Sullivan self-storage.

Put your old records where the Beatles performed.

CBS, our network, CBS, who I want to reiterate have always been great partners, put out a statement saying very nice things about me and about the show, and thank you to them for that.

They clarified that the cancellation was purely a financial decision.

But how could it purely be a financial decision if the late show was number one in ratings?

A lot of folks are asking that question, mainly my staff's parents and spouses.

Well... over the weekend, somebody at CBS followed up their gracious press release with a gracious anonymous leak, saying they pulled the plug on our show because of losses pegged between $40 million and $50 million a year. $40 million's a big number.

I could see us losing $24 million, but where would Paramount have possibly spent the other $16 million?

Like, Jim, what other companies lost that kind of money last year?

I told them we should stop offering the audience unlimited shrimp.

So, with those numbers, I got to say, it makes sense we'd be canceled.

In a completely unrelated story, on Friday, Donald Trump posted, I absolutely love that Colbert got fired.

His talent was even less than his ratings.

Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism?

He, uh, the president went on, I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next.

Okay, there's only room for one on this cross, and I got to tell you, the view is fantastic from up here.

Look, I promise I have more to say about all this after the commercial break over there.

Um, the only other story out there, it's kind of a small one, the president was buddies with a pedophile.

Um, on-on Friday, The Wall Street Journal dropped an absolute bombshell.

They are reporting that in 2003, Trump sent a birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday that was sexually suggestive.

It's the most inappropriate birthday gift since Carvel debuted Fudgy the Hung Like a Whale.

According, according, according to The Wall Street Journal, Trump's letter featured several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman which appears to be hand-drawn with heavy marker.

In the drawing, a pair of small arcs denotes the woman's breasts, and the future president's signature is a squiggly Donald below her waist mimicking pubic hair.

That means Donald Trump has drawn pubic hair on every executive order.
