Fingers stuck in ears.

Wanna know something interesting? Republicans are to choose a Speaker of the House before the new Congress is sworn in on Jan 3rd. Remember last time?

If they don’t choose a speaker by January 6th - there will be no one to start the electoral vote count or swear in new members of Congress - meaning newly elected lawmakers cannot vote to certify the electoral votes or to re-open the government.

Lmao!
