Congressman Mike Gallagher yesterday said it is time to end the election opposition.

Paul Ryan yesterday released a statement that says opposing the Electoral College results is one of the most ‘anti-democratic and anti-conservative’ things that Republicans in Washington D.C. can do. Ryan says the President had plenty of chances to challenge the election in court but failed to bring enough evidence to overturn the results. Ryan says the electoral opposition will sow seeds of doubt in Joe Biden’s presidency.
