“Several Republicans in Congress have spoken out against Nancy Pelosi’s mask mandate. But by far the worst take came from Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, whose every utterance sounds like it is coming from someone being dragged backward out of a Costco grabbing at the DVD rack. Greene, who has a history of anti-Semitism, used an absolutely insane and grotesque analogy when she compared Pelosi’s mandate to the Holocaust on a recent podcast. You just compared having to wear a mask to prevent transmission of a highly contagious respiratory illness to the Holocaust. I’d say you should be wearing a straitjacket, but with you I’m guessing a normal jacket put on backward would probably do the trick: [imitating Majorie Taylor Greene] ‘How do I get out of this? The Antifa Democrats have trapped me in a windbreaker! This is just like Nazi Germany.’” —Seth Meyers
“She’s like the lady at the P.T.A. meeting who argues that math violates the Constitution: [as Greene] ‘According to the First Amendment, two plus two equals whatever I say it does.’ ‘Ma’am, do you even have a child at this school?’ ‘Oh, I guess I need children to have an opinion on the curriculum for a school two towns over from mine. I didn’t know I was living in Soviet Russia.’” —Seth Meyers

“House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy immediately condemned her comments. He said they were reprehensible and totally inconsistent with the values of the Republican Party. No, just kidding — he said nothing. He did nothing, and he said nothing.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“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.”
