Read this article in the Atlantic or at least, scroll down to the last paragraph, which tells it like it is. The author proposes that these republicans be shunned from all public forums, for their acts of what can very well, be called sedition. The 140 representatives and about 10 in the Senate, have joined to try to draw out the last struggles of a tyrant, a little bit longer. They have disgraced themselves and should never be taken seriously again.
Is that what happened with these 31 congresspersons in 2005?

Because they, along with Senator Barbara Boxer, did the same thing.
Quotes from the time:
Quote:
"Some may criticize our colleague from California for bringing us here for this brief debate. I thank her for doing that because it gives members an opportunity once again on a bipartisan basis to look at a challenge that we face not just in the last election in one State but in many States."
Senator Dick Durban, D-IL
Quote:
"I believe that Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH) have performed a very valuable public service in bringing this debate before the Congress. As Americans, we should all be troubled by reports of voting problems in many parts of the country. I have been particularly concerned about the lack of a verifiable paper record in connection with electronic voting systems. I am proud to be a co-sponsor of legislation to solve that problem."
Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md

I read that article in The Atlantic yesterday, I think it was, and sent it to people I know. I thought it was such a spectacular editorial. Lol, after reading the article, a friend of mine posted on his timeline stating that Trump should face the harshest penalties for treason and the poor guy got put into FB jail!!!
Ah the good old days.. you know when someone could have their own opinion even if it was in opposition to the popular mantra. It was called debate, editorials, a reason to talk but still part as friends but today not so much.
It seems that if you speak out against the Lefty narrative they will attempt to crush you, shame you and destroy your life.
The elected that are opposing the stolen election are the brave ones yet History will cast them as cultish Trump sycophants. We are in for a world of trouble when half of the country doesn't even care to get to the bottom of the fraud but if all the back door dealings favored Trump America would literally be burning.
The powers that be investigated a rope on a NASCAR garage door more seriously than claims of fraud in the 2020 election. We are lost.
How exactly is it a defense to say "the other side did it too"? It's not a defense. You're telling on yourselves. It's quite the false equivalency, however.
Also, if you read the article, you'd know that, at the times of these objections, Kerry had long since conceded. Clinton too, of course. When someone tried this nonsense in 2017, the Vice President presiding over the roll call said "It is over".
That was Biden putting an end to the objection in 2017, btw.
The entire left has been practicing sedition for the last 4 years. So now, all of a sudden, sedition is wrong?
God, I hate Democrats.
