‘Damn right!’ GOPer makes House floor outburst in support of election subversion

In an outburst on the House floor, right-wing Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) praised Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) for his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

While nominating Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-CA) took a shot at the record of the Republican nominee for speaker of the House.

"Has this been about a focus of House Republicans, to find the person who can pass their extreme litmus test to oppose marriage equality, enact a nationwide abortion ban without exceptions, gut Social Security and Medicare, and support overturning a free and fair election?" Aguilar asked to jeers from Republicans.

"This has been about one thing," he continued. "This has been about who can appease Donald Trump."

Aguilar accused House Republicans of putting "their names behind someone who has been called the most important architect of the electoral college objections."

"Damn right!" Luna shouted.

"That's fair," Aguilar replied. "We know how you feel. You've made that clear."

"He spearheaded the legal effort joined by more than 100 of our colleagues on the other side of the aisle in support of a dangerous and baseless lawsuit to overturn the results of the 2020 election," he added. "On the eve of January 6th, some of my Republican colleagues even called this a failed strategy."
