Republicans have at long last elected a House speaker: Representative Mike Johnson, a fundamentalist Christian who was also once called a key āarchitectā in Congressās efforts to overthrow the 2020 election.
Johnson finally secured the speakerās gavel after Republican infighting left the House without a speaker for 22 days. He secured 220 votes.
Johnson is a four-term congressman representing Louisiana. His win also represents the rise of the MAGA front in the Republican Party. Earlier Wednesday morning, Donald Trump endorsed Johnson as House speakerāafter quickly killing Mike Emmerās nomination the day before.
Many states already are going down that path. Are you saying the judges wonāt vote in the peopleās favor bringing the suit?
What Iāll say is the only states doing this wouldnāt vote for him anyhow. Itās important that this happen, but letās be real.
āAll statesā is the only thing that would directly, functionally impact results.
Arizona is red and Michigan is purple. New Hampshire and Minnesota are very close to purple. Colorado is blue. The down ticket will mess their shit up as well.
