“The Republican party is having a bit of an internal squabble right now. The party is divided over whether the violent insurrection of January 6 was a violent insurrection or just a lively sightseeing tour of the Capitol. A week ago, the Republican National Committee voted to censure GOP legislators Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney for participating in the House inquiry into the insurrection, and in a statement called the attack ‘ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse’. They’re just a group of ordinary citizens wearing bear skin and horns smearing feces on the wall of the Capitol. Just ordinary citizens.” —Jimmy Kimmel
“In a rebuke of his own party, the Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell, reaffirmed this week that the attack was ‘a violent insurrection’ aimed at preventing the peaceful transfer of power. Just to show you how far down the crazy hole we’ve gone, we’re now applauding Republicans who are willing to admit that what happened, happened.” —Jimmy Kimmel
“But there’s not just crazy, there’s some dumb going on, too, including deranged comments this week by Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. Greene likened Congress to a gulag and said Nancy Pelosi deployed ‘gazpacho police’, instead of the Gestapo. If you’ve got cold soup you’d better watch it, because Nancy Pelosi is coming for it. These must be the soup Nazis Seinfeld warned us about so many years ago. And if the gazpacho police get ahold of you they’ll throw you right in the goulash.” —Jimmy Kimmel
