A great deal of damage was done last Wednesday during the storming of the capital: tragic deaths and injuries, the ravaging of the building itself, and, as many lawmakers have suggested, damage to the U.S. government’s reputation—and to the very soul of the nation.

And then, at a level that pales in comparison to the former issues, there’s the ongoing deterioration of the Trump brand. Twitter’s decision to permanently ban Donald Trump’s account @realDonaldTrump on Friday represents the latest blow to the president and his name, which has long been plastered across his various businesses.

But fans, fear not—the streamer’s content, including more than 75 scripted originals, reality series and short documentaries under 10 minutes in length, will live on. Roku acquired the global rights to stream the programming on its dedicated viewing hub, The Roku Channel. 

And new content, too: Roku will also premiere more than a dozen new shows that never had a chance to appear on Quibi.
