Rep. Matt Gaetz Joins Electoral College Challenge, Says Coach Tuberville Will Join Coalition
National File ^ | Dec 19 | by JACK HADFIELD

Greeted by cheers, Rep. Matt Gaetz announced he is joining the January 6 Electoral College challenge. Explosively, Gaetz added that Senator-elect Tommy Tuberville will be the first U.S. Senator to join the fight.

Speaking at Turning Point USA’s annual Student Action Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida, Representative Gaetz (R-FL) revealed that he will be “joining the fighters in Congress,” and will be objecting to Electoral College votes from states “that didn’t run clean elections” on January 6th.

The announcement was greeted by whoops and cheers from the crowd, along with chants of “USA.” Gaetz added that he has spoken to Senator-elect Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), and that he will also be joining the Electoral College challenge

“He still talks like a coach, and I had a chance to speak with Coach Tuberville just moments ago, and he says we are done running plays from the establishment’s losing playbook – it is time to stand and fight,” said Gaetz.

“Coach Tuberville went forward a lot on fourth down, when he was coaching at Auburn.” Gaetz noted, “They called him the Mississippi Riverboat Gambler.”

“Well the odds may be tough, it may be fourth and long,” he declared. “But we’re going for it on January 6th.”

Gaetz seemed to include Tuberville in his comments when he noted “we’re going for” the Electoral College challenge in January.

Hopefully Tuberville follows through because he is going to get pressured not to do this by Mitch and his crew.

Sessions did some good after all! His seat, stolen by smears against Judge Roy Moore, may now be the one that saves this nation by forcing the debate of the stolen election in the Senate.

While just one Rep and one Senator will do the job, it sure will be nice to see dozens sign on to join them. We either restore honest elections or they’re a complete bad joke that can be bought by any billionaire who wants to fund some more street riots, big lie mass media, illegal voting, and corrupt vote counting. And there will always be more soroznazis to do it, too

It’s time for all republicans with a backbone and integrity to IGNORE the compromised turtle and do what is RIGHT by the people WHO ELECTED THEM.
PERIOD.

On the senate side Rand Paul is making noise as well. And Ted Cruz may have some procedural tricks up his sleeve too

Tubberville hasn’t been in DC long enough to be bought, bribed or corrupted

I believe he’ll stand tall & fight for this nation

Man, won't that piss off the swamp critters?

A three day old Senator, and his first official act is to drop a snickers bar in the punch bowl.

What can come of this?

I dunno, just axing.

Matt was at Bundy. He is an oath keeper. You don’t want to dismiss him too quickly.

You can have dozens join in the challenge buy unless you have 51 votes in the Senate and 218 votes in the House to uphold it then the challenge fails. And the votes aren't there.

January 3rd. Same day as the House. Except for the Georgia senators.

How pathetic that only a handful of republicans will stand up. The whole conservative caucus in the House should stand up. Where are Cruz and Paul at the very least. 53 senators should be standing up.

Im glad Matt has joined Tuberville, Rand and others.

AS a one-day cohost on War Room back in November he said he would accept the legitimacy of the Biden Presidency. Perhaps he has changed his mind.
