On Saturday, writing for the Huffington Post, Arthur Delaney and Amanda Terkel documented the false claims made by Republicans as they are "desperately trying to deflect blame" from themselves for the violent invasion of the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

"Some Republicans, such as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), have admitted what actually happened," they wrote. "But others are compiling a growing list of distractions, excuses and alternate theories of the day's events, hoping that as time passes, the public forgets what actually went on."

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) left many Twitter users puzzled when he decided to do a storytime segment while filming himself reading a Dr. Seuss book. According to The Huffington Post, many social media users wondered what McCarthy's purpose was in sharing the post.

Almost immediately after the California lawmaker shared the post, Twitter users began firing back with critical and mocking responses.

Already buffeted by a massive $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems over his claims that the company helped Joe Biden steal the 2020 presidential election, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has new legal problems as the US Attorney's office at the South District of New York is re-upping an investigation into his foreign dealings.

According to a report from Yahoo News, the investigation into Giuliani's Ukraine work for Donald Trump in an attempt to dig up dirt on now-President Joe Biden had been sitting dormant but now is being re-activated.
