Speaker Pelosi made her displeasure clear with the 126 Republicans who joined the failed Texas lawsuit and advised them to instantly finish their election subversion.
The Courtroom has rightly dismissed out of hand the acute, illegal, and undemocratic GOP lawsuit to overturn the desire of thousands and thousands of American voters.
The 126 Republican Members that signed onto this lawsuit introduced dishonor to the Home. As an alternative of upholding their oath to assist and defend the Structure, they selected to subvert the Structure and undermine public belief in our sacred democratic establishments.
The pandemic is raging, with practically 300,000 having died and tens of thousands and thousands having misplaced jobs. Sturdy, unified motion is required to crush the virus, and Republicans should as soon as and for all finish their election subversion – instantly.
There stays the chance that Home Democrats may determine to take motion to punish the Republicans who seem to have violated the structure with their assault on the presidential election. Pelosi’s assertion ought to be seen as a warning to Home Republicans that this stops now.
By no means within the nation’s trendy electoral historical past has a gaggle of elected representatives taken such a public stand to undermine the structure. The House Republicans knew that the lawsuit was a joke but they cynically persisted, which is why need to be held accountable for their actions.
