JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election. As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

WTF would people vote for any Republican right now, like the economy is in reverse mode, and dictatorship is full speed ahead. Corruption and lawlessness is rife. I wonder what policies attracted their vote, or is it just mindless "my gang" voting? I guess education is important people

50 days to swear in Adelita Grijalva ... the GOP spent a ridiculously expensive campaign to get Van Epps elected; TWO DAYS! TWO DAYS BEFORE HE'S SWORN IN!!! 😁 Mike Johnson, your days are numbered when the Democrats take back the House; it will give us great pleasure. Buh bye ....

Uh-huh. Moses Mikey will probably “bless his heart,” too. What a phony! If the Democrat who should have won had been elected… Moses Mikey would have pulled the same special kind of bs on her as he pulled on AZ Rep. Grijalva.

Of course. Because the GOP forgot how to do the right thing long ago, long before they became the American Fascist Party (AFP). Now they wear their partisanship, hypocrisy, deception and general assholiness like badges of honor. Because oligarch boots won't lick themselves. But SO MANY follow!

They cheat and have no principles. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds. We get it. Let’s not waste precious cycles on complaining. Let’s discuss how we preserve our country? Who should we boycott first? Every day is election day when we vote with our wallets!

Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) said Friday she was pepper-sprayed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers during a raid near a restaurant in Tucson. “I was here … and was sprayed in the face by a very aggressive agent, pushed around by others, when I literally was not being aggressive...

not to surprising when you remember that they represent the most corrupt presidency in US history. trump alone has 34 felony convictions. in the presidencies from nixon to Obama, the republicans have had triple digit convictions and the democrats have only a hand full.

They are desperate at this point… Hell, we have a real life weekend at Bernie’s happening right now! They’re propping him up for the world to see and nobody’s doing a damn thing about it. The man just literally slept through the last meeting on TV. Impeach now !

I'd like to believe the next Democrat to hold the Speakership will remember how their side was treated and put any new Republican in the penalty box for 50 days. Then, when asked, comically feign confusion and pretend not to know what anyone's talking about. They won't, but I'd LIKE to believe.

I dunno. Jeffries seemed to have a glint in his eye after Nov elections. The question is whether he can maintain solidarity within and across the caucus like Pelosi.

And so they don’t lie? Really where’d see or hear that at because that’s a lie that they don’t lie. They are human. There are no saints walking around just people doing their best to do what’s right to all and hope others do right by them.

Bad, but McConnell’s completely hypocritical and illegitimate manipulation of Supreme Court nominations was far worse. The GOP is a puppet to the far right and Trump.

Yeah that election was ALL fucked up by the Republicans telling ppl in every state that wasnt theirs that they were elligible to vote in it. I hear it on Clay & Buck as I listen to their radio. Legal election interference at it's finest.
