Kimmel Blasts Trump "Lap Dog" Devin Nunez; "Perverted Circus" Ringmaster Paul Ryan (VIDEO)

I posted another thread with my first reaction to Kimmel's monologue tonight, but didn't have time to add details because I was watching Twitter reaction and looking for an article and/or video.

Both here, from Deadline:

On the eve of President Donald Trump’s release of the so-called “Nunes Memo,” late-night host Jimmy Kimmel took off his gloves.

“This is a memo written by Devin Nunes, a Republican Congressman from California that claims the FBI overstepped their surveillance of Trump foreign policy adviser Carter Page in a very obvious attempt to paint the FBI as biased against Trump and to discredit the work of Special Counsel Mueller,” Kimmel told viewers.

“This is how our government works now: If your party is in charge, you can lie, you can cheat, you can game the system to benefit your buddies, you can basically do whatever you want,” he said.

Much more in the article, lots of quotes, but here's the video, found via the article:

as they can influence people who aren't that political. That is where elections often are won and lost, on the simple memes/frames people know from these shows.
