Former U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan is angry with his former Republican congressional colleagues.<\/p>\n

Ryan believes they have embarked on an “un-American,”<\/em> and “anti-conservative”<\/em> strategy while seeking to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.<\/p>\n

Of course he is correct. One big problem exists, however. They don’t give crap what the former speaker thinks of their shenanigans.<\/p>\n

According to Business Insider: “All our basic rights and freedoms flow from a fidelity to the Constitution and the rule of law,” Ryan, who represented Wisconsin in the House from 1999 until 2019,\u00a0said in a statement<\/a>. “This principle is not only fundamentally American but a central tenet of conservatism. Under our system, voters determine the president, and this self-governance cannot sustain itself if the whims of Congress replace the will of the people. I urge members to consider the precedent that it would set.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Do you think any of the nimrods who are seeking to challenge President-elect Biden’s victory when Congress meets this week to certify the Electoral College tally from the election will heed these words?<\/p>\n

Nope. They are hellbent on shaming the nation.<\/p>\n\n
