“In US news, the January 6th committee learned last week that the Secret Service erased text messages from 5 and 6 January 2021, after oversight officials asked them to be handed over. The justification for why the messages got erased has shifted several times, from ‘device replacement program’ to ‘pre-planned system migration’ and then ‘dog ate our phones’, ‘our phones are going through a tunnel’ and finally, ‘New phone, who dis?’” —Stephen Colbert
“Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon’s trial for contempt of Congress, which is set to begin this week after the recent completion of jury selection. I’m sorry, but even if you’ve never heard of Steve Bannon, how could you look at this guy and be fair and impartial. Even if I had no idea who he was, I’d take one look at him and assume, at best, he’d been arrested for stealing a seaplane in the Florida Keys or maybe illegally selling soft drinks on the sidewalk in Times Square.” —Seth Meyers
“Also, if you’re thinking to yourself ‘wasn’t Steve Bannon already arrested for a different crime?’ the answer is yes. He was charged with defrauding Trump supporters as part of a scam fundraiser to build the wall, and was arrested on a fugitive Chinese billionaire’s yacht by postal service cops before Trump pardoned him – yet another series of words that’s both insane and will be mostly forgotten to history because too much other crazy shit has happened.” —Seth Meyers

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