“According to newly released records, Donald Trump Jr. texted then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows during January’s Capitol attack, urging him to make President Trump condemn the violence. Then he texted again, saying, ‘Fine, I’ll tell him myself — just give me his number.’” —Seth Meyers
“Yeah, Trump ignored the advice of those closest to him and also Don Jr.” —Jimmy Fallon
“And then this text: He said, ‘Dad, you have to stop this right now.’ He wrote back, ‘Who is this?’” —Jimmy Kimmel
“You cannot give Don that number. It’s too risky — he might give it to Eric.” —Stephen Colbert
“Don Jr. texted Meadows, asking him to do something. Meanwhile, Eric Trump texted, ‘Does anyone know where my Paw Patrol slippers are?’” —James Corden
“Now clearly, Don Jr.’s texts didn’t work, which honestly I’m kind of glad about because the only thing worse than an insurrection would have been to thank Don Jr. for stopping the insurrection.” —Trevor Noah
“Of course, Don Jr. has spent the last 11 months praising his father’s lack of action. And Eric — his son, Eric Trump, didn’t send any texts at all. He did not text Mark Meadows, because, well, in fairness he was stuck in a claw machine at a Dave & Buster’s in Silver Spring.” —Jimmy Kimmel
“Donald Trump Jr., texted Mark Meadows, ‘We need an Oval Office address, he has to lead now.’ OK, that reveals two things about Don Jr. One, he knew his dad was responsible and failing to lead, and two, he does not have his father’s cell phone number.” —Stephen Colbert
“These Fox News hosts pushed the big election lie for months leading up to January 6th. And then when their obedient viewers stormed the Capitol, they acted all surprised. It reminds me of Charles Manson’s statement after he was arrested: ‘They did what?! I was kidding. Helter sorry.’” —Stephen Colbert

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