I was shocked to hear that he was once a Democrat.

I regularly post his monologue and "A Closer Look" - and any political guests, Amy Klobuchar was on last night! He's gotten exceptionally good on politics!

And Al Franken had a surprisingly good interview with Bill Kristol on his podcast earlier this week:
