Pretzel logic in AP story about lawmakers who voted against Biden
Posted by TakingStock on 1/10/21 at 5:28 pm52
Check out how much twisting and turning there is in this AP article I just read entitled:
"Lawmakers who voted against Biden are denounced back home"
Is this real life? It's sad that we'll never see objective journalism in our lifetimes ever again.
"Lawmakers who voted against Biden are denounced back home"
quote:
Republican members of Congress who voted against certifying Joe Biden’s presidential victory, even after a mob broke into the Capitol, are being denounced by critics in their home districts who demand that they resign or be ousted.
Protesters, newspaper editorial boards and local-level Democrats have urged the lawmakers to step down or for their colleagues to kick them out. The House and Senate can remove members with a two-thirds vote or censure or reprimand with a majority.
Rep. Madison Cawthorn “needs to be held accountable for his seditious behavior and for the consequences resulting from said behavior,” a group of Democratic officials wrote in a letter asking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to expel the North Carolina freshman who took his oath of office on Jan. 3.
Cawthorn said he had a constitutional duty to vote against Biden. He condemned the violence in Wednesday's attack, but compared it to last summer's protests over police brutality. Those demonstrations never breached a government building during official business.

No, but they sure as hell tried to burn one down and blinded 3 federal officers during their riots.
