"A Presbyterian seminarian, Talarico has gained national attention for using his theological background to criticize Chrisian nationalism, condemning it as a 'betrayal of Jesus of Nazareth,' because it 'worships power in the name of Christ.' Talarico urges MAGA to look at themselves and realize that chasing power at all costs is wrong."

"The alleged censorship of Talarico’s interview suggests a dangerous attack on both free expression and religious pluralism. The Christian nationalist agenda advocates against a diversity of Christian experience, contradicting and threatening kindness and justice as key tenets of our faith."
~ Mary Ann Montgomery

"They also overlook that Trump’s ICE is throwing senior citizens to the pavement, dragging people from their cars, and breaking into homes without a search warrant. They don’t care that his agents are murdering peaceful US protestors and Venezuelans in fishing boats that cannot, due to size and distance, make it to US shores and therefore cannot be posing a direct threat."

#JamesTalarico, a Democratic candidate for the #Senate in #Texas, appeared on “The View” on Feb 2. US Rep #JasmineCrockett, who is running against #Talarico for the nomination, has also been on the show.
The #Trump admin has taken steps to clamp down on #TalkShows [only the ones he doesn’t like], which the #FCC has suggested may be “motivated by partisan purposes.”

“The #FCC has an enforcement action underway on that,” Chairman #BrendanCarr told reporters after an agency meeting Wednesday, in response to a question about whether there were an investigation into the daytime series over potential violations of the “equal time” rule. “And we’re taking a look at it.”

#StephenColbert isn’t backing down in an extraordinary public dispute with his bosses at #CBS over what he can air on his late-night talk show.
On “The Late Show” Tuesday, Colbert said he was surprised by a statement from CBS denying that its lawyers told him he couldn’t show an interview with Democratic #Texas #Senate candidate #JamesTalarico — which the host said had happened the night before.

I heard Donald Trump doesn't want anyone to see this interview of a Texas Democrat.
The Trump FCC has threatened every show State Rep. James Talarico goes on and this week it was The Late Show's turn in the hot seat. The FCC forced this interview off the airwaves.
We probably should watch it if Trump hates this politician so much.
