Trump: "Our country is going to hell!"

Driving the news: The following was said and done on Friday:

• The Republican National Committee censured GOP Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) — once considered among the most conservative members in all of Congress — and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) for their membership on the House committee probing the Jan. 6 violence at the U.S. Capitol.
• Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) thundered on Twitter: "Shame falls on a party that would censure persons of conscience, who seek truth in the face of vitriol."
• Former Vice President Mike Pence rebuked former President Trump, saying he was "wrong" to claim the VP had power and obligation to overturn the election results certified by the states.
• Trump put out his own statement hours later, rebuking Pence for rebuking him, and closed with his take on the state of America: "[O]ur Country is going to hell!"
