I enjoyed chatting with Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show."

My thoughts on how we save our democracy are the same today as when we last spoke on "The Colbert Report" in 2010.

We must get big money out of politics.

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.

Weather Service is now hiring back hundreds of positions that got cut in the DOGE chaos | CNN The National Weather Service has received permission to hire 450 meteorologists, hydrologists and radar technicians just months after being hit hard by Department of Government Efficiency-related cuts...

The EPA is preparing to cancel $7 billion in grants intended to fund rooftop solar projects for low- and middle-income households. Officials plan to send notices to all 60 recipients in the Solar for All program, spanning 49 states, informing them that their funding has been revoked.

California GOP House member thinks this would be bad…LOL. GOP has more to lose in CA than they will gain in Texas. Also New York. GOP seems bad at math.

Biscuits and gravy are a southern staple because everyone can get a little bit of meat when you cook off a small amount and add flour and milk to the grease. Pour it over a biscuit and there’s protein for all.

Poverty foods will be back soon.

So much for “America first.”

California is moving closer to a special election on redistricting—firing back at Texas Republicans’ gerrymandering power grab.

California Republicans are against it. They’re trying to block it while their party rigs maps in red states.

The plan is a trigger-based redraw…

House Republicans issue subpoena for Jeffrey Epstein files The subpoena from a GOP-led House underscores the pressure President Donald Trump and Republicans are under to release the files as the president’s base continues to demand transparency.

Trump does not give a shit about any subpoena. He knows HIS DoJ will NEVER release any material harmful to him.

It just never ends. Pam Bondi has convened a grand jury to look into claims that members of the Obama administration may have violated federal law during their investigation into Russia’s role in the 2016 election.
