House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday that Republicans had hit “rock bottom” after the GOP’s national committee characterized the Capitol riot as “legitimate political discourse” when it censured Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for participating in the House select committee investigating the violence. “The Republicans seem to be having a limbo contest with themselves to see how low they can go,” Pelosi (D-Calif.) said at her weekly news conference. “They seem to have reached rock bottom with their statement that what happened on Jan. 6 was legitimate political discourse.”
