Take a Wild Guess How Many GOP Women Are in Leadership Next Congress

House Republicans haven’t selected a single woman to serve as a committee chair in the next Congress.

With Representative Brian Mast winning out Monday over Representative Ann Wagner to chair the House Foreign Affairs Committee, “no Republican women lawmakers will serve as elected committee leaders next year,” Punchbowl News reports.

Former Republican Representative Barbara Comstock responded to the news Tuesday, tweeting, “Very fitting in the MAGA Era—No Women Need Apply.”

Democratic Representative Don Beyer of Virginia wrote, “Women make up more than half of the population of this country but House Republicans didn’t elect a single one to lead a House committee.”

maybe that's a good thing. Imagine Marjorie Taylor Green or that sleazebag from Colorado in a leadership role. Not that the male rePukes are any better!

MAGA men are Fascists. Fascists generally hate women. Women deprive White men of attaining and keeping their White Privilege thrieving, alive, and well. They hate to share any of their power with any other group because they have spent decades shitting on the "Others". White men do not want to see that treatment come full circle and jeopardize their political standing, personal well being, or professional White Preivileges.

Why leave the door ajar and allow them to get their foot in the door?
Besides women belong in the kitchen at home - baking chocolate chip cookies. Beyond that it is a man's world and Capitol Hill is a man's job.

Women should get lost.
