Huge Number of GOP Members Reportedly Will Now Object to the Electoral Count on Jan. 6

All it takes is one from the House and one from the Senate to shut down the Electoral College count, to open debate on the question of fraud and irregularities in the election in the contested states.

When Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said that he would join Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) and about ten other House members, they had enough to open the discussion and call for a vote on the question.

As we reported, Democrats flipped out and attacked Hawley. Since then, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-MA) even said Hawley’s actions “bordered on sedition and treason.” But they of course were being hypocritical, forgetting about the prior times their members had actually raised objection, including as recently as against Donald Trump and Democrats like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) praised. those action.

Apparently now that Hawley, Brooks and the others were willing to step forward, that’s prompted others to stand up now as well.

Reports are now that at least 140 GOP members have joined the move and that may go up even more. That’s 66% of the Republican members of Congress, if true.

That’s what needs to happen to get some actual movement and attention on the issue. You have a huge part of 75 million who voted for the president and who don’t believe or accept the results of this election. Unless you answer the questions about the irregularities, that’s a big problem; or it should be to anyone who’s concerned about the security of our elections, the Constitution and the rule of law. Democrats/media have just wanted to declare it all a hoax and run away from the topic, ignoring the violations of state law and the sworn affidavits of people alleging irregularities. This at least puts more attention on it and forces everyone to take a stand on the issue. With at least 140 people, one has to give serious weight to the question.

Many of the folks trying to suppress any discussion aren’t even aware of the alleged irregularities or violations of the Constitution, they just think everything has been found to be invalid when virtually all the significant concerns haven’t been heard.

It shows that some are willing to fight. It was always going to be a lost cause. We don’t have the House and the Senate Republicans (by and large) are everything we have come to expect and hate about the uniparty,

Still, I’d rather see someone fight rather than throw in the towel.

Yep! It’s just enough to keep the base tamed and semi-satisfied! McConnell has already signal that he’s very disgusted by the objection of some pubs representatives. That speaks volumes! Backstabbing blood sucking money hungry China connected POS!

Phone lines need to be burned up with a clear message:

“Refuse to support and stand with the contesting of the electoral votes submitted, and then refuse to vote against any potentially fraudulent slate of votes; and you will not receive a single vote in the next election.”

Of course, there will still be plenty claiming that we just need to hold our noses and vote for the lesser evil. Which is exactly how we ended up here.

Greatful is good....

It would be interesting if the number of Republicans in the House standing and saying “I am Spartacus” ends up somewhere in the triple digits.

Strategy for the House Republicans to give Nancy Pelosi the boot as Speaker - If ANY other Democrat besides Nancy Pelosi is nominated, the Republicans as a bloc should vote for that nominee, that plus the disaffected Democrats would force her from the Speaker’s chair, maybe even shame her to the point she resigns, goes home, and gets the psychological help she so dearly needs.

Excuse me?
Demonrats projecting AGAIN.
AND there had better be a LARGE number objecting to this FAKE ELECTION or the blood will flow!
TRUMP WON this election. Anything else coming out of congress will be UNACCEPTABLE.

I think it means that the writing is on the wall for huge numbers of Republicans to lose all chance of being re-elected by the 75 million that voted for Trump. Unless, that is, they change their party affiliation to Democrat. Re-election is all they care about, and it’s incumbent for them to stand up NOW! It’s the least they can do.

It means that now that the RINOs have figured out that objecting won't really change anything, they're virtue signaling by jumping on the Objection Bandwagon.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is nominally from New Hampshire, but she might as well be from Massachusetts, since Massachusetts college students crossing the state line to vote for her put her in office. Of course she is in favor of vote fraud and ballot box stuffing.

The Republicans in Congress got elected in huge numbers throughout the country, although Mitch seems to not care about endangering his majority lead in the Senate, given his indifference as to what’s going on in Georgia.

But any Republican who benefited from the RED WAVE below the top of the ticket ought to show up to protest what the DEMS/CHINA did to the top of the ticket—ie, switching Trump votes to Biden, and flooding certain states with Biden votes in the dark of night!!
