Trump said early Wednesday that TV broadcast licenses should be revoked if newscasts and late-night shows are almost entirely negative about him and the GOP.

“If Network NEWSCASTS, and their Late Night Shows, are almost 100% Negative to President Donald J. Trump, MAGA, and the Republican Party, shouldn’t their very valuable Broadcast Licenses be terminated? I say, YES!” Mr. Trump said in a post on Truth Social in the wee hours of the morning.

The post came minutes after the president criticized “The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert, calling him a “pathetic trainwreck, with no talent or anything else necessary for show business success.” The show is set to end in May 2026.
