So dumb! Colbert rocks

Christ professed REINCARNATION, explained what (born again) (return as this child)! MEANS!. I'm so tired of politicians and conmen twisting the words of christ against my people. It's the definition of (anti christ) It's (Mormon indoctrination of white Supremacy) aka(zionism)!

Christ actually does touch on homosexuality in the Bible. Denouncing divorce , and ADULTERY. says it's better not to marry! Then professed 3 types of eunuchs he placed above the adulterous heart of men and women who make oaths before God and break them! FACTS

God is the landowner of this parable! Man is made of land!

youtu.be/AiiePD_lhrM?... I need all my fellow Americans and nato nations to rise in solidarity with me, in the spirit of the Marque. AND DEMAND JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THIS TREASONOUS WHITE SUPREMACY/PEDO REGIME. I can't watch this crap any longer and keep my mouth shut

Unbelievable!

Over 7 1/2 million views now. 😆

STREISAND EFFECT. Tell people they can't see it, makes more people go look.💨💨💥💣

It's called a dictatorship.

Colbert has nothing to lose from CBS. Maybe they yank him early but I’m sure his contract protects him salary wise. So go for it!

👏👏👏

Yes. Early voting, here I come!!

That was wonderful! As a fifth gen Texan I agree with him! I was raised Baptist too & my grandfather told me when I was 8(he died 2 yrs later) that he didn't believe in organized religion,but in spirituality & teachings of Jesus. I will never forget that moment & how it guided me in life!

Censorship by corporate media cooptation.

The idiots in this administration have obviously never heard of the Streisand Effect.

Love to see a strong, intelligent woman stand up to some pretty dumb questions.

Could Colbert follow some of the "parody" rules in place? Even if Carr isn't following the rules, couldn't Colbert have an actor on to Parody James Talarico, but then recreate the interview verbatim? Feels like that would do good numbers, be funny, and expose some of this.

Who funds Talarico?

Passed it on. Thank you for sharing.

Fear is so obvious.... The only way to combat the sycophants is to insure their cult leader has no power. #Blue2026 will do that!

It's up to 3.5 million now,

Please donate to this candidate.. I just did. Let's flip Texas!! talarico4tx.com/mLTC4W

CBS will soon learn the error of their ways, when their board of directors has to use their money to pay their employees...#BOYCOTTCBS

Way to go dipshits. You gave it far more attention than it would have had if you’d just let it air.

I get to vote for this guy they are soooo afraid of!

Oh Jim, I really hope the voters see the light and vote for him

He and Jasmine Crockett are both gems 💎 and if she were to win, he could be a representative! Either one of them would be a terrific senator! I’ve talked to so many nice people from Texas, they deserve to get out from under the Reich Regime!

Excellent interview. The most sense I’ve heard in a long time

Streisand effect, yay!!

If you watch, you can see why the Trump regime wouldn’t want this on TV.

Watched this morning.

If Colbert could control Cornyn and Paxton from simply riffing like they do on Fox etc, I’d like to see those interviews. When they refuse to answer questions, my patience dissipates completely. Jon Stewart interviewing them would be fun to watch.

youtu.be/sa6fiO2EgJ4?...

What did they run instead?

Done ✅

James: 'CONSTITUTIONAL BACKFIRES' for $2,000, Alex. Alex: Attempting to stifle dissent, the Trump administration’s EO banning 'woke' books from schools only increased interest in those topics - an example of this social phenomenon named for a famous singer. James: What is the Streisand Effect?

Ha ha cbs we saw it in spite of your actions. Many many more will view. Thanks Stephen Colbert

Streisand effect

CBS wonders why no one watches them.

@cbsnews.com @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @cbssports.bsky.social HEAD Bari Weiss is an evil, dishonest, corrupt, VICIOUS RIGHT-WING Trump supporter who supports genocide in Brazil, Ukraine and Gaza.

He gives us hope for the future

Best thing that could have happened to James Talarico. I had no idea that Colbert was doing an interview with him. Now I know & will watch. Brendan Carr brought more attention, publicity & viewership to this interview than it otherwise would have gotten had it just aired as business as usual.

Watch and subscribe to Colbert's YouTube channel so he will have an audience when he leaves CBS.

No

This was an excellent way to make sure people who wouldn't normally watch Colbert see this important interview. They really don't think these things through, do they.

👍

Maybe Bari Weiss should be trying to hire Talarico to host Whiskey Fridays 😂

Excellent interview. I need to watch it again. Talarico is intelligent and articulate. Speaks with grace and integrity. Everything the far- right despises.

Why isn't the right screaming about their freedoms like they were under Biden????

Fantastic interview. I wish all those so called “Christians” would listen to this.

He will be on Lawrence O'Donnell tonight talking about it.

Let’s turn TX Blue!

This guy is presidential material. He has to stay away from AIPAC though.

Kimmel on his next show needs to have a special one hour interview with two people Stephen Colbert and James Talarico (streaming next day on Hulu) CBS and Bari BAD Weiss can’t do anything about it. And the FCC can’t do anything to Jimmy Kimmel because he’s already signed his extension with ABC

This was favoritism to the white candidate. Jasmine is running against him. CBS has weighed in here. There's a preference, and it's a white person in office in Texas.

I remember Vance speaking against censorship

What is Colbert’s usual audience? Let’s double that

James Talarico seems to be the one to tame Trump.

Europeans are scratching their heads Get religion the fuck out of politics

"fReE sPeEcH"

Colbert is doing the heavy lifting day in and day out !!!!

When we take back the government we need to take a look at who owns our media and how they’re using it.

Almost 2 million now, just 2 hours later!

Paxton is never a good option. He cheats in politics and on his wife.

This is so perfect. The CBS censorship has led to far more views of this interview than it would have received otherwise.

He did take money from Adelson.

234,000 views as of 2pm today, Fat Tuesday

I don't live in TX but my MT is in many ways, particularly politics, a twin 2 TX. I've got 2 say, I really like James Talarico. He's an authentically honest & respectful decent man who speaks truth. I agree w/ him on every subject matter he's addressed. But, I also really like @crockett.house.gov

They just really don’t understand the Streisand Effect

3.2M and still counting… 😈 It was a really good interview, too! I can see why they want to silence the guy. Which of course means they'll find some way to charge him with something, while continuing to offer pardons to every Barabbas compatriot who comes along.

3.1 M and counting!

CBS has bowed down to the most notorious pedophile and child rapist on the planet. we must never allow them to deny this, or recover from it.

💙💙💙💙💙

Worth every rebellious second

Cross-wearing MAGAs are frightened of Talarico and smearing him how ever that they can because he's not a Fake Christian and Hypocrite like they are. He talks abt loving ur neighbors. He's not into defending pedos, arresting 5 yr olds & pathologically lying abt everything. He knows The Golden Rule.

Thank you, CBS. I otherwise would not have seen this interview of James Talarico. What a quality human who will be favorable to the governmental process of healing this terribly fractured nation.

Streisand effect. Well done, Bari…

B@stards. I wish I could cancel CBS like I can cancel streaming services.

I watched this and I can tell you that I am voting for this honest, unassuming, intelligent young man in early voting this week. I love Jasmine’s fiery nature and I wish she hadn’t lost her district to gerrymandering but this man has won me over.

💔

2.1M views by now 👍

FYI: Viewership for Colbert spiked to 3 million last July when CBS announced it would not renew his contract. It averages about 2.4 million. It’s 3:30 ET on 2/17 and it’s been viewed 2.14 million times. www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

CBS sucks!

They used to say that this kind of thing only happened in VENEZUELA. #CENSORSHIPinTheUS bsky.app/profile/gtco...

I guess I’m confused about why CBS would shut down the Talarico interview but still platform the town hall with Wes Moore. Placating Trump’s whim of the day, I suppose.

The FCC & CBS can shove it where the sun don't shine.

Poifect!

What are they gonna do, fire Colbert?

They learned absolutely nothing from the Kimmel/Disney fiasco.

Agree. My point is that the republicans seem to be more strategic about placing strong candidates in different elections to optimize outcomes.

Her district became compromised after the texas redistricting. I agree, this is tragic. They are both too good to lose.

📌

Had no plans to watch Colbert's show. But now I'm gonna watch the fuck out of it. Streisand Effect FTW

Thank you!

I would also add this... call on Carr to resign from the FCC.

Colbert's show drew 2.4 viewers per night on average last week. May the Talarico interview beat those numbers! 💪

Currently up to 3.7 Million views... thanks Brendan Carr!

this morning when i first saw this link it had 800,000 views that was 11 am eastern time feb 17, 2026, its now 2:30 pm eastern time feb 17, 2026 and its at 1,800,000, a million views in 3.5 hours.. :)

I found it and I can see why Rep Talarico scares them. I heard him on the Rachel Maddow show before. He is impressive,smart& well spoken. Also an actual Christian. I agree wholeheartedly in keeping church and state separate.

Viva la Streisand effect!!

That’s…. That’s not how democracies work? Or how people run for election and get elected? And how primaries work? If parties (like DNC) “chose” candidates… “getting strategic…” and told ppl who their candidate is. That’s how MAGA works. That’s how Russia and Hungary work. That’s what you want?!?

Agreed. However in the end Texas will have a great senator.

I live in Texas. I don’t believe Crockett can win here. This isn’t NY. I’m voting for Talarico because I like his policies and I think he can win. Nevertheless, if she wins the primary I will vote for her.

Sameeeeee

He seems great but personally, there are already too many white Christian men in Congress - representation matters. He does seems like a great guy but Crockett is also amazing!! Too bad they have to go head to head! Thankful for both of them putting themselves out there - in Texas!!
