He's basically a comedian. He's a comedian who hasn't had good new material in years, but many still enjoy his show, for some reason. (nostalgia for the old material) Oh, and a comedian who has the power to drop nuclear weapons.

Today, jury duty is on the docket. On this episode of our podcast Let the Record Show, our hosts @iammrbeat.bsky.social and Shereen Marisol Meraji join us to explore how Pauli Murray, a legendary civil rights lawyer exposed the connection between racism, sexism, and jury selection in Alabama.

A celebrity staying quiet about politics during a time when we face growing authoritarianism just means that celebrity doesn't have courage. That's all. I lost a lot of viewers when I spoke out against Trump. I don't care. It's better to use my influence to speak out against authoritarianism.

I interviewed Adam Hamilton, a pastor, minister, and author running for the U.S. Senate to represent my home state of Kansas. If elected, Hamilton would be the first Democrat to win a U.S. Senate election in 94 years. The full interview is now posted on the thing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhUp...
