The 147 Republicans Who Still Voted To Overturn The Election After The Capitol Siege
huffpost ^ | 01/11/2021 | Jennifer Bendery

They repeated Trump’s lies about widespread fraud as he incited supporters to violently attack Congress and democracy. Why are they still in office?

It sounds like a scene from a dystopian movie, but it was a real day in Washington, D.C.

On Wednesday, throngs of President Donald Trump’s supporters violently stormed the Capitol, incited by the president himself, with plans to kill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Vice President Mike Pence and others to stop them from certifying President-elect Joe Biden’s win. They smashed and stole federal property. They attacked police and journalists. They sent hundreds of lawmakers into hiding. Five people died. And the death toll could have been so, so much worse.

And yet, hours later, dozens of the same lawmakers who hid during the attempted coup returned to the House and Senate floors and voted just as Trump wanted them to: to overturn the election results in his favor, based on lies about widespread voter fraud.

There will be countless investigations into what happened that day and why it was so easy for white supremacist insurrectionists to break into the Capitol and potentially carry out a massacre. Why it took so long for federal law enforcement to respond. Who these domestic terrorists are and how their plan came together.

But one of the most egregious attacks on democracy happened in plain sight and requires no investigation: It was when these 147 Republican lawmakers cast their votes.

Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) introduced a resolution on Monday to expel those who had tried to overturn the election on the grounds that they violated the 14th Amendment.

Here are the names of every Republican senator and member of Congress who voted to sustain objections to certifying the electoral results in two states where Trump lost, Arizona and Pennsylvania, despite no evidence of fraud. The full House tallies for each vote are here and here; the Senate votes are here and here.

In the Senate:

Ted Cruz (R-Texas)

Josh Hawley (R-Mo.)

Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Miss.)

John Kennedy (R-La.)

Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.)

Roger Marshall (R-Kan.)

Because a riot justifies a stolen election?

One way to send a message to the RNC is to send $10 dollars to each this month.

I heard a clip of some house(?) member on the radio. Female, speaking broken English. She said that she voted for looking into the election results more closely, and voted for looking into the impeachment more closely (before just voiting “Impeach”).

I liked her. Of course the Liberals don’t want to look into ANY of it more closely.

"There will be countless investigations into what happened that day and why it was so easy for white supremacist insurrectionists to break into the Capitol and potentially carry out a massacre."

The Huff Post writers really are swept up in the latest leftist delusion. They started out a couple of years ago believing that words could kill them, and that even expressing ideas they didn't agree with was threatening their life.

Now, without any rational basis whatsoever, they are upset about a situation where some unknown, and clearly non-existent person might "potentially carry out a massacre".

The only person doing any killing was a government employee, who really did massacre somebody. Her name was Ashli Babbitt.

Do the people writing for Huff Post realize that theoretically there is always the possibility that some deranged person might "potentially carry out a massacre"? Just like there is always the possibility that a giant meteor could crash into earth? Or a dangerous virus could spread around the world?

But one thing we do know now is that regardless of what someone could imagine might happen on any particular day, nobody physically attacked any politician on January 6th. From what I could see reported in the news nobody even did what Senator Cory Booker asked his supporters to do and confronted politicians like the Democrat occupiers of the Senate Office Building did in 2018.
