Federal judge Royce Lamberth said the January insurrection at the Capitol was a “disgrace” and forcefully rebuked the “utter nonsense” coming from some Republican lawmakers who are whitewashing what happened, CNN reports.
Said Lamberth: “I don’t know what planet they were on.”
Lamberth was appointed to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan in 1987.
