21 House Republicans Refuse to Award Congressional Gold Medal to Police Who Defended Democracy on January 6   It’s a remarkably sad, embarrassing and dishonorable move even for Kevin McCarthy’s increasingly extreme House GOP. On Tuesday, GOP messaging leaders and QAnon conspiracy theorists Marjorie Tayor Greene and Matt Gaetz led a group of 21 House Republicans who voted against House legislation to […]

On Honoring Law Enforcement: “It’s all politics, it’s all garbage”  Yesterday, Scott Perry joined 20 other Republicans to oppose awarding “four congressional gold medals to the United States Capitol Police and those who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.” Perry later described the vote to honor the officers who defended the Capitol from insurrectionists as “garbage.” This morning he […]

Rep. Ashley Hinson is just six months into her first term, but already Northeastern Iowans are disappointed in her failed leadership.

Emmer fails to give straight answer on 2020 election conspiracies plaguing GOP as the party continues their failed attempts to manage Trump’s lies  After months of trying to block popular legislation and forcing Americans to wonder what the House GOP is fighting for, NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer made it clear that the House GOP is more focused on managing former President Trump’s lies rather than working for the […]

Now we know why Rep. Scott Perry was fleeing in the woods from a local reporter. After finally relenting to “dozens” of requests from local media, the congressman struggled to answer questions outside the right-wing conspiracy orb he traditionally hides in. In previous interviews, Perry has minimized his role in the events of January 6th and even downplayed the events of that day to angry Pennsylvania voters. Nothing changed yesterday, when Perry came out of hiding to join two shows in-state: This Week in […]

As Republican Study Committee Cozies Up With Trump, Reminder that Spartz Stands With Their Disastrous Agenda  The Republican Study Committee just released their latest proposed budget, confirming yet again that Rep. Victoria Spartz is out of touch with Indiana values.

As Republican Study Committee Cozies Up With Trump, Reminder that Hinson Stands With Their Disastrous Agenda  The Republican Study Committee just released their latest proposed budget, confirming yet again that Rep. Ashley Hinson is out of touch with Iowa values. The Republican proposal supported by Hinson is a far-right wish list which would be a threat to Iowans’ health care. The proposal includes putting Medicaid on the chopping block and rolling back Social Security and Medicare for seniors. And that’s not all. If Hinson […]

“Phony Tony” Gonzales taken to task for misrepresenting a vote in withering new fact check by the Washington Post  A new fact check from the Washington Post today slammed AAN, House Republicans’ dark money group, with four Pinocchios for their “bogus claim” that House Democrats opposed an amendment that “was not even officially part of the motion and thus not the subject of […]
