Glenn Kirschner – Big Lie and Big Liar

The Republican Accountability Project – Liberls should not be making a hero out of Liz Cheney. Republicans, however, probably should. It might be their only chance.

The Lincoln Project – Elise Stefanik

RepresentUs – with Sarah Silverman

Liberal Redneck – Confederate Memorial Day (May 100

Randy Rainbow – Are all these parodists on the same schedule? Nothing for a month and then three in three days (and another one tomorrow.)

This is 43 seconds and no, I haven’t lost my mind. Stay to the end and watch the faces. You may need to watch the faces a second time to get the full flavor. And no, there’s no CC, and I don’t want to put a spoiler here, but there’s one here

The Lincoln Project – “McCarthy”

Ring of Fire – more on McCarthy (et al)
