“Ruth Bader Ginsburg was an intellectual titan, a tireless advocate of equality, a relentless advocate of democracy, a towering figure in the history of American jurisprudence and civil rights. And yet, merely hours after her death Friday evening, Senate Republicans, who represent 15 million fewer American than Senate Democrats, are pulling out all the stops to help a sundowning fascist who lost the popular vote by 3 million fill a supreme court seat vacated by a feminist icon six weeks before an election. I get that highlighting their hypocrisy is mostly pointless – hypocrisy only matters if you have shame. They don’t. Mitch McConnell certainly isn’t capable of feeling shame. He looks like a haunted wooden doll you find at an estate sale, and has the same level of emotional complexity.” —Seth Meyers
“I don’t think anyone is surprised that Senate Republicans said one thing when Obama was president, and another thing when it’s Trump. You can’t even call them inconsistent. Doing whatever it takes to get his way is the one consistent principle that Mitch McConnell lives by. It’s that and eating baby birds right out of the nest.” —Trevor Noah
“As you know, Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away on Friday, and the host of ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ would like to be the one to replace her.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic.
A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night On Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
