Married and Counting is a feature documentary about a same-sex couple who celebrate 25 years together by getting married in every state that will let them.
Today, we pause to remember the Americans who laid down their lives in service to our nation.
May we always honor their legacy and support the loved ones they left behind.
Stephen Colbert was awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. A fitting honor for a champion of our democracy.
RETWEET to congratulate Colbert on this honor!
COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.
BREAKING: President Biden torches Donald Trump's disastrous record in a blockbuster speech and coins a humiliating new nickname for his repeatedly indicted rival.
Speaking in Maryland today, Biden said that he wanted to "compare the records" between himself and Trump when it comes to "reducing the debt." The numbers speak for themselves.
"Under my predecessor, remember the self professed King of Debt? Turned out he was the Emperor of Debt," said Biden. "He created more debt than any other president in one year. No, I'm serious!"
This is the ugly little truth that Republicans always ignore. Donald Trump skyrocketed the U.S. debt by giving massive handouts to the rich but still his party wants to claim that they stand for "fiscal responsibility."
"For starters when he passed that $2 trillion tax cut skewed to the wealthy and big corporations they didn't pay for a penny of it," said Biden. "The end result was that it has ballooned the national debt by nearly forty percent."
The way forward is clear. Bidenomics offers a brighter future. MAGAnomics leads to disaster.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's humiliation gets turbocharged as the New York attorney general's office reveals that he actually inflated his net worth by WAY more than the $2.2 billion previously reported.
And it gets so much worse...
When the $2.2 billion news originally hit, Trump completely freaked out and insisted that he was just as rich as he had claimed and had "BIG CASH."
Now, a new filing from Attorney General Letitia James alleges that Trump consistently inflated his net worth between 2011 and 2021. One year, he falsely inflated it by a staggering $3.6 billion.
As if that weren't bad enough, James called this massive new figure "still a conservative estimate," meaning that the the final inflation number could be much higher.
The filing is part of the $250 million civil fraud lawsuit against Trump, his crooked children, and his mafia-like business. They consistently inflated Trump's net worth in order to fool banks and insurers — a serious crime.

BREAKING: Donald Trump is hit with more devastating news as a prominent Democratic Senator comes out in favor of banning Trump from the ballot under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment — which bans insurrectionists from holding office ever again.
In a bombshell new interview, Senator Tim Kaine declared that “there’s a powerful argument to be made” for banning Trump under the 14th Amendment” because “the language of the amendment is specific: If you give aid and comfort to those who engage in an insurrection against the Constitution of the United States — it doesn’t say against the United States, it says against the Constitution. In my view, the attack on the Capitol that day was designed for a particular purpose — and that was to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power as is laid out in the Constitution.”
Senator Tim Kaine couldn’t be more right. Trump fits the intention of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment like a glove — so the Constitution demands that he be exiled from our political system.
Senator Kaine is now the highest profile Democrat to throw his weight behind banning Trump, the latest sign that the idea is gaining steam on Capitol Hill.

I'm honored to join strongman & swords-swallower @AdamRealman on @coneyislandusa's "Ask the Experts" online series tonight @ 7p ET. We'll take your Qs on filmmaking, politics, & Coney Island lore.
FYI, in the picture they chose, I'm the one on the right.https://t.co/UH2ZQ9m3zW
You negotiated this bill for months. You NEVER said you wanted $2000. And now, all you have to do is pick up the phone and tell Republicans to stop blocking $2000 payments.
But you won't. Because you don't want $2000 payments. You just want chaos. To light the country on fire.
To all the “tough guys" who don't want to wear a mask or worry about COVID.
I have a message for you.
Exhausted nurses & doctors. EMTs & ambulance drivers.
THEY'RE the tough ones.
Stop making their job harder.
Saddened by the news of the passing of Sir Sean Connery. A wonderful man who I had the pleasure of working with in Time Bandits. We crossed paths many times over the years. Such immense talent and a vibrant human. And the only one of us to find The Holy Grail.
