Stephen Colbert doled out a unprecedented honor on Monday night time, giving one Republican lawmaker a brand new name, but it surely’s one he most probably gained’t be placing on a resume anytime quickly.
The “Past due Display” host tore into Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), who remaining week complained that Republicans get handled unfairly once they lie and pointing particularly to the arrest of former Donald Trump adviser Peter Navarro. Navarro used to be indicted on contempt fees after refusing to agree to a subpoena from the Space committee investigating the Jan. 6 assault at the U.S. Capitol.
However Gohmert noticed it from any other standpoint.
“It in fact places an exclamation level on the truth that we have now a two-tired justice device. For those who’re a Republican, you’ll be able to’t even misinform Congress or misinform an FBI agent or they’re coming after you,” he griped.
“Wait! Hang on a 2nd, we’re getting extra breaking information!” Colbert interjected. “That is simply in. Is that this showed? He’s simply showed it: Louie Gohmert stays the dumbest guy alive.”
