The Johnson-led brief didn’t just “express … concern with the integrity of the 2020 election” it asked #SCOTUS to hold that the results in GA, MI, WI, and PA were “unconstitutional.” Someone who would advance that argument as late as December 10 has no business being Speaker.
This would also be a good reason:
During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Mike Johnson attacks Roe v. Wade, insisting that if only women were compelled to bring more "able-bodied workers" into the world, Republicans wouldn’t need to slash Social Security and Medicare.Oh, well:
Republicans can elect their Christian nationalist, forced birther, anti-gay, social security cutting, election denier as Speaker. Democrats can make sure many of them lose their jobs next year because of it, while making his tenure very brief.emptywheel thinks these antics are laying the groundwork for Trump to win the election in the House in 2025. Without a victor from the EC, that would require a signed challenge by 1/5th of the House and the Senate, which won’t be the same Congress as currently seated. And the way things are going, won’t be a more MAGA Congress in 2025, either.
