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

If the bosses at CBS were hoping to get lots and lots of people to watch Colbert's interview with James Talarico by blocking him from airing it on TV.... mission accomplished. Nearly 900k views and counting.

Of course it is. It’s another Don tilting at windmills because he imagines them his enemy to his β€œperfect view”. Don Quixote did it better.

Ohhh, it’s so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it! I’m way too close to a major metro to see any auroras, even when they come far enough south to reach my area.

Wonderful news! Wish I could’ve visited when I was out in the area a few months ago.

What Brazil’s January 8 Can Teach Us About January 6 In 2021, the January 6 Capitol attack exposed deep connections between the US state and far-right groups. When something similar happened in Brazil in 2023, it prompted a national attempt to reform th...

Brazil succeeded in holding coup plotters accountable.

It's time once again to remind my fellow Americans that there is no mechanism whereby state run elections can be suspended or canceled by the federal government. None. So don't go along with any garbage you hear to that effect. Laugh, and get ready to vote.

As Administration officials seem to be struggling with this, let us say it again: it is illegal to use the U.S. military to invade a foreign country without the authorization of Congress and is a violation of international law.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

They grew up in an era without these diseases and now have only propaganda poisoning their minds that the vax is somehow worse than the disease. Unfortunately, their children will be the ones to suffer the consequences of their ignorance.

I’ll take your tiramisu! Love it!

My β€œNopes” include rhubarb pie and pecan pie, both a pass for me.

Cannolis and panettone are meh. I’ll usually pass on those too.

Billion Oyster Project Restoring oyster reefs to New York Harbor through public education initiatives.

In addition, oyster reefs become a safe spot for small fish fry and other sea critter larvae, which in turn brings in larger fish up the food chain.

NYC is working on its own version of this, to bring oysters back to the waterways around the city (www.billionoysterproject.org).

They won’t be eaten, these are purely for environmental benefits. Oysters are tremendously beneficial for polluted waters; a single adult (palm-sized) oyster can filter nearly 200L of water each day. The reefs also provide a shore break against storm surges and protect the coastline from erosion.
