MAGA House Republicans Lean Fully into Election-Denial

After three weeks of chaos and infighting, House Republicans today elected Mike Johnson (R-LA) as the new Speaker of the House.

Lisa Gilbert, the executive vice president of Public Citizen issued the following statement in response:

“Mike Johnson’s claim to fame is leading the charge to deny President Biden's certification and attempting to overturn a democratic election.

"A year out from the next presidential election, House Republicans have made their contempt for democracy and their intent to lean into full-on election denialism crystal clear.”
