I think the Senate chaplain has heard enough BS

A few phrases from his invocation:
That the senators make use of their "cognitive discernment and moral judgement." That the truth is "illuminated." That they "eliminate discordant static."
I didn't get it all, but in his oblique way, he called out the lies, garbage, and moral compromise.

He and The CJ are the Officiants at the public Funeral for the Constitution. The old Relic will be lying in state in an open casket in the rotunda so each of the suspects of the deadly deed can walk by it.

They don't give a rat's ass about moral compromise. In fact, they embrace it.

What you've quoted is morally ambiguous. They truth he might want to see illuminated is that Dems are lying arseholes who are creating discordant static. You know how conservatives like to project.
