Former Senator Paul Ryan strongly objected to Senate and House efforts to block certification in a Sunday statement.
Shocker!
He has no credibility with either side. The current Fox News Board member wrote:
This is a very dishonest missive. First, the Trump administration has not had any legitimate hearing. Every court refused to look at the evidence, claiming the case was too late, or the plaintiffs did not have standing.
Secondly, there is nothing anti-Democratic or anti-conservative about contesting this election. Democrats did the same thing in 1969, 2000, 2004, and 2016.
It’s within the law.
Third, it’s also illegal to commit fraud. What could be wrong with investigating?
Investigations have been shut down at every turn, even though more than half of the country believes the election was fraudulent.
Paul Ryan has never said one word about the mistreatment of Donald Trump over these past four years. The unconstitutional Beria-style probe over Russia went without him noticing. He didn’t care about the fraudulent Ukraine impeachment either. Ryan never said a word about the brutal 24/7 media assault.
If President Trump lost, he lost, but we need to know if that was the case. And no one should care what Ryan thinks.

Lyin’ Ryan never met an illegal he didn’t like, and was about as Republican as Pelousy is.
Typo time. Paul Ryan is not a former Senator. He is a former Congressman whose entire career has been in government and quite profitable for him. He ascended to Speaker of the House when the incompetent John Boehner stepped down. As Speaker, he used his hatred of President Trump to effectively block many of the policies our president wanted to enact. Ryan’s hatred for President Trump and his incompetent leadership resulted in Democrats taking control of the House. I have said before and will say again, I believe Ryan’s next political goal is to run for governor in Wisconsin as a Democrat.
No one cares what Ryan thinks other than establishment DC RINOs. What Ryan wrote there is nothing but cheerleading for the election coup. it’s just empty rhetoric, and as usual written for him. Ryan has never has an independent thought in his head. His job now is as a figurehead at fox, which he was given as a reward for selling out conservatives.
Ryan was involved in the 2016-2017 coup, at a minimum he was notified of the spying on the Trump campaign (by law) and did no oversight of it. He then used the house to thwart investigations of it.
Obama’s beard? Doesn’t he have some cannabis (weed) money to be making with comrade kommissar Weepy Boehner?
Get back to the glorious people’s republic of Wisconsin Pauly the RAT.
