Let he who has never Venmo’d a prostitute cast the first stone (or as Republicans call it...)


April 2021

“Matt Gaetz, Florida congressman and fraternity brother who wants to show you something in his room, has been under fire since news broke of him being under investigation over possible sex trafficking. But like a Karen in a Bath & Body Works, he refuses to back down.” —Trevor Noah


“According to a new report, Florida congressman Matt Gaetz used the cash transfer app Venmo to send an accused sex trafficker $900, who then paid three young women for, quote, ‘tuition and school,’ which is a pretty weak attempt to cover your tracks. That’s like leaving your wallet at a crime scene but wiping your fingerprints off it.” —Seth Meyers


“Let he who has never Venmo’d a prostitute cast the first stone.” —Jimmy Kimmel


“I mean, you think you know a guy, and then it turns out — yeah, you’re totally right. You do know him. You know him pretty well.” —Trevor Noah


“The House Ethics Committee announced Friday it will launch an investigation into Republican congressman Matt Gaetz over allegations that he, quote, ‘may have engaged in sexual misconduct, and/or illicit drug use, shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misused state identification records, converted campaign funds to personal use and/or accepted a bribe, improper gratuity or impermissible gift’ — or as Republicans call it, ‘running for re-election.’” —Seth Meyers

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night of the Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”

We found the leaker! He’s in your mirror (setting the Constitution on fire)

Congressman Nunes is stepping aside because the House Ethics Committee is determined to investigate allegations that Nunes may have made unauthorized disclosures of classified information. “Good news, Congressman Nunes! We found the leaker! He’s in your mirror.” –Stephen Colbert
The rule change was getting rid of the filibuster, a last resort commonly known as the “nuclear option.” And it’s called the “nuclear option” because they need some part of it to sound exciting. –Stephen Colbert

Who was chairing this commission, Michael Jackson?




"Today the House Ethics Committee released its report on Mark Foley. Well, they found willful ignorance, but no rules were broken. They said the whole thing was proper according to the law. Okay, Cardinal Bernard Law. Hitting on kids is not a crime? Who was chairing this commission, Michael Jackson." --Jay Leno

"Earlier today, the Christmas tree in front of the White House fell over. Even after the tree collapsed, President Bush insisted that the tree was doing a heckuva job." --Conan O'Brien

"Earlier in the week, NASA announced plans to establish a manned base on the moon. President Bush was quick to point out, 'We're only going to stay on the moon until the moon people are able to govern themselves. President Bush also suggested waiting until there was a full moon, so there would be more places to land.'" --Jay Leno
