U.S. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva is expected to be sworn in this week, ahead of the House vote on a government funding bill, Scripps News has confirmed.
Grijalva won a special election in Arizona’s 7th congressional district in late September, but House Speaker Mike Johnson refused to swear her in. He said it was due to the House not being in session, which has been prolonged due to the government shutdown.
Wait, I thought Mike Johnson said she wasn’t sworn in due to the shutdown. If she is being sworn in before the vote to reopen the government, does that mean that Johnson was lying? Say it ain’t so!
I’m starting to think we can’t trust this Johnson fella at his word
Do I have the energy to be shocked anymore?
