Ex-GOP Speaker Ryan denounces effort to challenge Electoral College results
By Zack Budryk - 01/03/21 04:10 PM EST

Former Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) on Sunday blasted Congressional Republicans’ efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

“Efforts to reject the votes of the Electoral College and sow doubt about Joe Biden’s victory strike at the foundation of our republic. It is difficult to conceive of a more anti-democratic and anti-conservative act than a federal intervention to overturn the results of state-certified elections and disenfranchise millions of Americans,” Ryan said in a statement.

“The Trump campaign had ample opportunity to challenge election results, and those efforts failed from lack of evidence,” the statement continues. “The legal process was exhausted, and the results were decisively confirmed. The Department of Justice, too, found no basis for overturning the result. If states wish to reform their processes for future elections, that is their prerogative. But Joe Biden’s victory is entirely legitimate.”

Yeah, although it may be critical to the future of the nation its definitely bad for business.

And that is what really concerns Paul Ryan.

It ought to be a law before any ex-politico opens his mouth, they need to disclose their after office money sources, lobbying connections, and all other Swamp influenced activities.

He was worse than McConnell and I think even worse than McCain as far as being detrimental to the GOP and this country.

Just one more worthless RINO that betrayed his country, and continues to do so!
