You got cojones, elf.

Peru's Congress just removed a corrupt president. It wasn't the first time.

Peru's Congress has ousted interim President José Jerí just four months after he took office for failing to disclose meetings with Chinese businessmen. The scandal unfolded last month after videos emerged of Jerí meeting several times outside his official schedule with businessman Zhihua Yang, who was under government scrutiny. Jerí had previously apologised for the meetings, but denied any wrongdoing and accused his rivals of a public smear campaign. His removal from office makes him the third consecutive president to be ousted, after he replaced former leader Dina Boluarte, who was impeached in October last year. Jerí was Peru's seventh president since 2016 amid a tumultuous political landscape that has seen a succession of leaders leave the post under contentious circumstances. While lawmakers had set a date to discuss impeaching Jerí, in the end they opted for a different parliamentary procedure called censure, which only required a simple majority to pass rather than the super majority needed for an impeachment. Later on Wednesday, Congress will name a new interim president who will serve only for a few months - until a new president is chosen by the people in a general election this April.

Dear Congreso de la República del Perú, please clone your cojones and then send the clones to Republicans on Capitol Hill.
