147 republicans in the house of representatives voted to throw out the results of the election in Pennsylvania (after they had been attacked by the MAGA mob).
10 republican Senators lead by the traitors Hawley and Cruz voted to throw out the PA votes.
Through out this process we were confidently told not to worry the treason has no chance of actually working. Both the house and senate have to agree before the republicans can steal an other presidency. But, this is a simple majority vote 50 plus 1 in the Senate and 218 in the House. It is not impossible that the republicans could have slim majorities in both chambers with an incoming democratic president, gerrymandering works.
What would be the outcome if this “symbolic” process were hijacked? we could easily be looking at a process where the guy who lost both the popular vote and the electoral collage kept the presidency. After all both House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and House Minority Whip Steve Scalise were two of those idiots who voted against certification of the Pennsylvania vote. If the party leaders vote for anarchy what can we expect from the rabble that follow them? on January 6th we came incredibly close to not just a violent overthrow of our democratic process but also to a simple procedural loss of democracy, after the violence failed the procedural attempt continued. This can not stand, there must be consequences, let them skate this time and next time they will not be such incompetent buffoons….
What to do?
Eight house members, who were all on the same ballot as the presidential election, voted to reject the Pennsylvania results, presumably they must think their election is also fraudulent. They should all be immediately expelled from the house on the basis that they are fraudulently elected snot wombles.
Cruz and Hawley should have the full weight of the 14th Amendment applied and preferably banned from any public office for life. The disgusting sight of Cruz on TV should always have the label traitor on the chryon.
Impeachment must proceed rapidly, in the interim let NY and GA have a crack at prosecuting Trump. My local congress man Chris Smith is already trying to pretend that we don’t need this, no excuses no delay trial today.
Every time House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy appears in public he must be questioned on his motives and patriotism and why he allowed this to procced.
Every time House Minority Whip Steve Scalise appears in public he must be questioned on his motives and patriotism and asked why he allowed this to procced.
On the other hand perhaps one day the tables will be turned and the next incoming Republican president will learn that just squeaking by on the electoral collage is not sufficient.
It would be nice to think that the press would follow up on this over time, and that it will not go down the memory hole, Fox and idiots are already trying to pretend the violent insurrection was really Antifa, hopefully after about 300 MAGA idiots are jailed this will be squashed, but we can not let the soft coup attempt that followed be ignored. How about a 2 year long campaign starting today that targets advertisements at each of these individuals in their home districts.
