Why This Congressman Is Using Superman Comic for Swearing-In
BBC ^ | 1/5 | Brandon Drenon

Incoming US congressman Robert Garcia will be sworn in using the US Constitution - and a Superman comic.

In a tweet on Tuesday, he said it is one of three items he will use that "mean a lot to me personally".

The other two are a photo of his parents, who he said were lost to Covid-19, and his citizenship certificate.

Itsnotsupposed to be about YOU Bob.

You’re there to represent your constituents not be a life affirming event.

What you’re doing is an insult.

It’s an oath before God, and should be on a bible

Not a joke on a cimic book.

Spit

I think it’s rather appropriate that a cartoon character is sworn in with a comic book.

Why America is circling the porcelain fixture all the time.

The stupidity of the liberal voter is off the charts.

Whatever ignorant thing they can choose, they do.

It’s how we got AOC and others just like her.
