Texas Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate James Talarico saw a boost in campaign cash and had his profile skyrocket amid a war of words between Stephen Colbert, CBS and the Trump administration over his spiked The Late Show interview.
Colbert said that the network’s lawyers told him that Talarico, a state legislator from Austin, could not appear on the show. This comes as early voting for the Senate primaries in Texas began on Tuesday.
