Ladies and gentlemen of the GOP, I am not Jim Jordan. I yield my time. (unipolar superpowers)

Jim Jordan’s defeat in his attempt to become Speaker of the House was an historic humiliation for a man who will not be in the history books. He was undone not by the usual Maga bomb throwers. He was brought low by a coalition of Republican moderates nearly three weeks after the more extreme wing of the party ousted Kevin McCarthy as speaker. Eight Republicans are now vying for the top position in the House, and Republicans planned to hold a forum on Monday evening in which candidates would make their case in two-minute speeches. Now, two minutes may seem short, but I know what I would say – ‘Ladies and gentlemen of the GOP, I am not Jim Jordan. I yield my time.’ —Stephen Colbert

“This time, nine Republicans will battle for the top post: Tom Emmer from Minnesota, Kevin Hern from Oklahoma, Jack Bergman from Michigan, Byron Donalds from Florida, Mike Johnson from Louisiana, Sam Nayman from Tennessee, Dan Marks from Wisconsin, Ben Warner from Georgia and Ken Sherman from Pennsylvania — and I started making up names partway through that list, and literally no one knows when I did, including me.” — Stephen Colbert
