  1. I love Heather Cox Richardson, and Andy Borowitz, and here they are together, for the first time.

    Andy Borowitz interviews Heather Cox Richardson about what she sees happening with the Trump administration, SCOTUS, voting rights, the Electoral College, the Constitution, and democracy in the United States, in 2026 as we barrel toward midterm elections. Professor Richardson explains her thoughts through the lens of American history.

  2. > The autocrats’ anxiety is entirely justified. Comedy is their kryptonite. They rule by intimidation, and when we laugh at them, their power to scare us evaporates. As Mark Twain wrote in The Mysterious Stranger, “Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.”

    Which brings me to Stephen Colbert, who hosts his final “Late Show” tonight. ...

    I seriously doubt tonight’s farewell episode is the last we’ll hear from the indefatigably creative Colbert, who will likely move to a new platform where he’ll enjoy more freedom and financial success than he had at CBS.

    “ Offering an explanation for his sweeping tariffs on foreign films, on Tuesday Donald J. Trump argued that movies with subtitles “encourage reading.”

    “ In his most dire warning, he claimed that reading subtitles could lead Americans to read books, and eventually the Constitution.”
