This is the kind of representation uninformed, education deprived Trump Republicans want.
CNN reports, "Newly elected Republican Congresswoman
Mayra Flores spread conspiracies on social media that the January 6 riot at the US Capitol was caused by members of the far-left group Antifa and repeatedly used a hashtag of the QAnon conspiracy theory in tweets that have since been removed.
"Flores won the special election for Texas’ 34th Congressional District last week, giving Republicans an additional seat in the House of Representatives. She beat a field of four other candidates – two Republicans and two Democrats.
"Before running for office, Flores was a local Republican activist who tweeted under the handle “LaRepublicana86,” where she spread false claims about election fraud and immediately began suggesting on January 6, 2021, that the Capitol riot was caused by Antifa and “infiltrators.”
"The Republican Party of Texas adopted a resolution at its state convention that rejects
President Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 election, further aligning the state party establishment with former
President Donald Trump in pushing false election claims."
“We reject the certified results of the 2020 Presidential election, and we hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States,” reads the resolution.
The Hill reports, "The Jan. 6 committee investigating the attack on the Capitol revealed Thursday that at least a half-dozen Republican lawmakers asked for presidential pardons for their role in voting to overturn election results in certain states on Jan. 6, 2021, according to testimony from former Trump aides.
"
Testimony from Trump aides named Reps.
Matt Gaetz (Fla.)
Mo Brooks (Ala.)
Louie Gohmert (Texas),
Andy Biggs (Ariz.), and
Scott Perry (PA.) as seeking pardons."
Trump Republicans are the same people who want to control Congress after the November mid-terms.
