I had no idea who James Talarico was. I don’t even watch TV. But when I heard today that Colbert was blocked by his network from airing an interview with him on his show, I searched for the segment on YouTube and watched it in its entirety.

I am not a Christian, but I’d vote for Talarico in a heartbeat.

When Trump and his goon in the FCC, Brendan Carr, tried to censor Colbert and “hide” Talarico, who is out to turn Texas blue, they miscalculated. Rather than hiding Talarico, they gave him a megaphone, so much so that I, a person wholly uninformed about Texas politics, now watched him and would be willing to support him.

I just read that election forecaster Logan Phillips pointed to Google Trends data showing Texans suddenly searching Talarico’s name at a “very high rate” just as early voting approaches. That’s not coincidence — that’s momentum.

Way to go Brendan Carr.
