Now it's time for the last word with Lawrence O'Donnell. Good evening, Lawrence.

You know, Alex, that story you just reported could be subtitled. It's hard out there for a Republican.

Because when the party stands for absolutely nothing, what do you do next? It's not that hard to

remember. When one of the things the Republican parties stood for was sucking up to and protecting

in every way, the biggest employers in your state. Yes.

When you abandoned everything that you used to think, what are you left with? You ended up in

stories like that. You end up with not going to Disney World and announcing that you're going to

run for president. Yeah. Yeah. Ron DeSantis, enjoy that ride. Alex, I have a problem. I'm going to

struggle through here in this program. And it's similar to the problem I have with putting the

words, fox and the word news anywhere near each other. Because if I do, I feel like I'm telling a

lie. Like it's just not true. There's a congressional committee now where I cannot bring myself

to say the name of the committee and I have to report on it tonight.

I bet I know which committee you're talking about. I think you do. Don't say it. Don't say it. I can't

I can't I can't take it. And so I have to be chaired by someone named Snim Snordan or

Rims. I think it's fair. It's fair to call it the Jordan committee. You know, we,

but Jim Jordan committee, that's the best I can do as close as I can come to. I simply cannot

use the name of the committee. I'm going to explain why I in this segment. As I report on the committee,

why I dare not say its name. And don't forget Lawrence because I know you love the parliamentarian

details of the US Congress subcommittee. Just to technically a subcommittee. Yes. sub not even an

actual committee subcommittee. Which is all the weirder as these things go. I have to say.

Well, I'm looking forward to your creative nomenclature. All right, I had to work on this one.

Thank you, Alex. Good luck. Thanks. Bye. The name of congressional committees.
