COLBERT: “On Monday, McConnell led a Republican filibuster that blocked government funding and raising the debt ceiling. So, this is a totally avoidable crisis. It would be like knowing there was a life-saving medicine available during a pandemic and not taking it. Ooh, ooh, wait, wait. Maybe we should inject the budget with horse paste?”
