Virginia Foxx, who yelled “shut up!” at the reporter who tried to ask the Speaker nominee about his attempt to overturn the 2020 election, is Chair of the Education Committee.
You might be Googling who Mike Johnson is this morning.
Let me make it simple:
Johnson is a hard-right, pro-Trump, leading election denier in the House.
Sadly, this is what passes for Speaker material in the Republican conference.
If Mike Johnson wins, and unless he’s made private commitments for a floor vote on Ukraine and funding government: Gaetz wins, MAGA wins, and Trump wins, and institutionalist™️, responsible™️, moderate™️ Republicans lose, once again having pitifully folded when the crunch came.
The unsung hero of the Jan 6 committee, is @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy, who pulled his choices to obstruct the investigation allowing for a smooth bipartisan investigation and presentation to America. Thanks Kevin!
I couldn’t imagine looking at myself in the mirror if i was @mattgaetz or @laurenboebert. Smugly sat on their hands while history was made and a real hero addressed us. Imagine caring more about performance art than actual human lives.
The reason why Georgia voters are breaking records for early voting AGAIN, is because Republicans accidentally lit a fire by shortening the available voting days in an attempt to suppress the vote.
GOT efforts for Warnock are paying off & folks are rushing to vote.
