'This is too rich': MSNBC panel loses it over Republican's budget vote defense

A complaint by far-right conservative Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) about his budget vote had the entire panel on MSNBC's "The Weekend," laughing on Saturday morning.

Co-host Jonathan Capehart provided the set-up by remarking, "This is too rich," before running audio of a bitter quote from Van Orden about his upcoming budget vote when he snapped, "The president of the United States didn’t give us an assignment. We’re not a bunch of little b–––hes around here, okay? I’m a member of Congress. I represent almost eight hundred thousand Wisconsinites.”

After clarifying for viewers what was said in the garbled audio clip, Capehart repeated that Van Orden stated, "We're not a bunch of... b-words"–– the mention of which led the entire MSNBC panel to burst into laughter.

"We're not a bunch of b-words around here, okay," he repeated before pointing out to guest Dana Milbank, "And yet, brother man voted for the bill. He voted for the bill!. So is he a little b-word?"

"Well, I hate to tell the congressman," the Washington Post columnist replied. "But, you know, being a little b-word and being a member of Congress are not mutually exclusive at this point," which created more laughter as Capehart interjected, "Especially this go round."

"Is there a bigger joke than the House Freedom Caucus now?" Milbank asked. "I mean, every time they roar like tigers and then they do the kitten tiptoe back into their cages. Nobody's going to take them seriously again."
