Trump sued Paramount for $16M on July 15—then cashed a $1.5B check from them July XX. The admin's "free speech" crusade only silences critics who can't afford settlements.  

The White House called *South Park* "irrelevant" Friday while Paramount's parent company pays creators $1.5B to mock Trump's Epstein jokes & $16M settlement. Admin attacks media integrity yet rewards corporate partners who fund their legal shakedowns.  

When does satire become extortion? When Trump's lawyers invoice the laugh track.
