Appalling and Dishonorable

Texas Congressman Louis Gohmert told One America News that some very familiar names pressured members of the House Freedom Caucus to rethink who they would endorse for Speaker.

“Promises were made and as I understand it, our friend Senator Jim DeMint, now head of the Heritage Foundation was making calls persuading…really shocked me. I don’t guess I was so surprised that Newt Gingrich was making calls behind the scenes to Freedom Caucus members to tell them, ‘you gotta cave and go with Paul,’” Gohmert said.



Backdoor promises that are made, crossing the aisle to collaborate with those who plot the demise of our nation as founded and the elitism of the ruling class to govern above the head of the people they are elected to represent is appalling and dishonorable.

Shame on former Sen. DeMint of the Heritage Foundation for this betrayal of our founding principles as Ryan pledges to govern outside of the people, unwilling to have his authority challenged.

We continue to support Rep. Dan Webster (R:FL) for Speaker, and extend our greatest appreciation to Rep. Gohmert for keeping up the fight for freedom!
