Stephen Colbert made an interesting proposition for Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI).

Participating in the upcoming season of the PBS show Finding Your Roots, Ryan discovered that he is three percent Ashkenazi Jewish due to his 10th great-grandfather, who was born in Germany in 1531.

Ryan took to Twitter to semi-confirm the news.

“Haven’t the Jewish people suffered enough?” Colbert reacted to the news. “The Anti-Defamation League has already responded, saying ‘What?! Run the test again!'”

The Late Show host told his audience that such a discovery “naturally” leads to “one burning question.”

“Paul Ryan, are you even circumcised bro?” Colbert directly asked the House Speaker.

Colbert guessed he wasn’t, but he told he advised Ryan that it’s the “price of admission,” which lead Colbert to make an offer he can’t refuse… “The Late Show’s Live Paul Ryan Bris-Stravaganza.”

“C’mon on my show and get a live bris!” Colbert urged Ryan. “Moyles are standing by. Think of it this way, Paul… The foreskin is only one percent of the penis. And we know how much you love cuts for the one percent.”
