“This is huge news, and would be even bigger if it changed anything,” he continued, as Sinema said she intends to keep her same committee assignments, continue caucusing with the Democrats, and assured Arizonans that “nothing will change about my values or behavior”.Seth Meyerschecked in on Donald Trump, who has been holed up at Mar-a-Lago since announcing his 2024 bid, other than to play golf at a course across a lake. “Fine, he’s a 76-year-old former business idiot from Queens,” Meyers said.
Meyers also roasted GOP politicians leaning harder into the Maga-verse, such as Greene. In Manhattan over the weekend, Greene claimed she had nothing to do with January 6th by arguing that it couldn’t have been planned by conservatives if they weren’t armed. “That’s the whole joke, isn’t it? They say that whole thing was planned, and I’m like, are you kidding me?” she said.
