Donalds Blasts Colbert as Political Hack in Texas Primary
February 23, 2026·1 day ago·via The Miami Times

Rep. Byron Donalds shreds CBS late-night host Stephen Colbert as a "political hack" for interviewing failed Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico, accusing him of meddling in the Texas primaries to boost his preferred leftist. Donalds points out Colbert's stunt backfired spectacularly, with the interview airing on YouTube, racking up 6 million views and raising $2.5 million for Talarico's campaign in 24 hours - yet it violated equal time laws since Colbert ignored Rep. Jasmine Crockett.
