Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislature
YouTube video by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Rep. James Talarico On Confronting Christian Nationalism, And Strange Days In The Texas Legislature

Hey, I'm watching the Colbert interview with James Talarico, Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Texas, which CBS declined to air on broadcast TV, likely due to Trump administration threats... wanna watch it too?

Bari Weiss at CBS News sent lawyers to Colbert to block them from even interviewing James Talarico with threats of legal action. Solely because he is a Democratic candidate.

They are officially state-run media.

For years, I homeschooled my children, and ended up rubbing shoulders with many in the far right community as a result. Trust me – they are ALL talking to their kids about politics. Centrists and people on the left shoot themselves in the foot in this respect.

Oh, look! The New York Times mocks the intelligent and articulate AOC for how she spoke while is constantly covers for the loopy, incoherent Donald Trump.

Saw the term β€œmalignant pacifism” for the first time, and oh my god is that a great descriptor for the Democratic Party.

Trump supports Victor Orban who has made Hungary to become the poorest country of the EU by looting, corruption and selfishness. This is the future where you are heading too America.

The richest man on Earth dismantled the organization that feeds the poorest children on earth.

Elon Musk’s dismantling of USAID has already killed more children than in Gaza and Ukraine combined.

He cut lifetimes for millions and the result is a silent massacres.

Civilian casualties in Ukraine caused by russian bombing soared by 26% during 2025, the Guardian reports.

This is the price the Ukrainian people pay for Western attempts to bring russia to the table before pressing it enough. Russia took it as weakness. As permission.

A social media post by Thomas Massie states he is not suicidal, eats healthy, his car brakes are good, practices gun safety, avoids deep water, and is a good swimmer. Timestamp: 11:53 AM, 2/13/26.

⚠️ The moment lawmakers felt compelled to tell the public they are not suicidal should have stopped everyone in their tracks.

Are we proud of this? Terrorizing, torturing and putting little kids in prison? Sex trafficking them? Is that what we are willing to put up with so that the stock market does well??? Shame on us. All of us. We will not recover in my lifetime.

Do not forget this when they ask you to thank them for giving you a couple hundred bucks back on your tax return in April.

Hegseth has radicalized Richard Leon, the most conservative partisanly Republican judge not appointed by Trump I've ever met.

Gov. Tim Walz: "They left us with deep damage. Generational trauma. Economic ruin in some cases. The left us with many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where and what is the process of the investigation into those that were responsible for the deaths of Renee and Alex?"

To be clear, they aren’t immigration detention facilities, they are ICE-Gestapo concentration camps that the MAGA regime are using to torture, starve and murder adults and children of color as part of their fascist takeover.

Abhorrent.
Monstrous.
Evil.
Crimes against humanity.

This is all due to the incredible resistance of the people of Minnesota.

Their resilience - and their determination - helped enforce the Constitution in a way that political elites in Congress and the courts did not or could not.

I have never been prouder to be a Minnesotan.

I don’t understand. Why even be on a dating site and then tell women to move along? What are you hoping to accomplish here? It feels like it’s some sort of self-flagellation.

Q: That man works for you now, right? The one who was in the police body cam footage, the one allegedly yelling 'kill him' at officers on January 6th

Bondi: He does work for us

Q: This is who you choose as the chief law enforcement officer of the US to hire?

Bondi: He was pardoned by Trump
