The GOP Is a Circus, Not a Caucus

Tom Nichols: “Now controlled by its most unhinged members, the Republican Party has returned to power in the People’s House. Speaker Kevin McCarthy, the ringmaster of this circus, is happily paying off his debts by engaging in petty payback, conjuring up inane committees, threatening to crash the U.S. economy, and protecting a walking monument to fraud named George Santos, who may or may not actually be named George Santos.”

“In the enduring words of Emerson, Lake & Palmer: Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends.”
