Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Trump is threatening to bring in the National Guard to the nation's Capitol. He's already done it in LA. He is a fascist testing how to unleash his own Gestappo against Americans once people turn on him during the midterms and 2028 election. It's all right there in front of your eyes, folks.

After avoiding it during the primary, Andrew Cuomo finally went on the Brian Lehrer Show last week — and lied about his record.
The truth is that universal pre-K was won despite the disgraced ex-Governor, not because of him.

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.
