A new Senate Judiciary Committee report found that Clarence Thomas failed to disclose two luxury vacations bankrolled by billionaire Harlan Crow — even after he amended his past disclosure filings. He's a national disgrace.

I enjoyed chatting with Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show" last summer. He has always been kind to me when I've been a guest on his various shows — and he's a wicked smart satirist. Are you planning to tune in to his farewell episode tomorrow night?

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

A Supreme Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places the Court at odds with democracy itself. This is the legacy of Chief Justice John Roberts. I opposed his nomination back in 2005, and I stand by that.
