Former House Speaker Paul Ryan admonished fellow Republicans Sunday in a rare statement that called planned GOP efforts to challenge President-elect Joe Biden's win 'anti-democratic and anti-conservative.' Ryan, of Wisconsin, who left Congress in 2019, said in a lengthy statement Sunday that it 'is difficult to conceive of a more anti-democratic and anti-conservative act than a federal intervention to overturn the results of state-certified elections and disenfranchise millions of Americans.'(Snip) A bipartisan group of 10 senators—including four Republicans—also pushed back against the group's planned protests Sunday, authoring a statement urging Congress to certify

Opportunistic rats everywhere you look. FTA: "Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Mitt Romney of Utah all signed on to the statement, which said 'it is time to move forward.' " "Trump allies Sen. Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, both also spoke out Sunday, insisting attempts to stop the certification of the Electoral College 'will go nowhere'."

Guess what, Mr. Former Speaker? Millions of voters have ALREADY been disenfranchised by fraud in this joke of an election, but you don't care about them. You just want to keep your own gravy train going and cover up the mass of illegality and graft that is Washington, DC.

Eddy Munster Ryan is single-handily responsible for the GOP's losing the house. I bet he was a strong Romney supporter for senator. Losers always hang together.

So according to Ryan, when there is provable election fraud on the part of states, there is no remedy for the rest of the nation, they just have to accept it and move on to keep up appearances. It’s so unseemly to actually LOOK and call out the fraud and hold the states accountable.
No. No. No.

I’m so angry at Paul Ryan that all I can say is: if you will lecture us about how we should shut up and accept a stolen election and all the exposed corruption of the entire federal system from top to bottom. We should just accept that as if we were not actually America. As if we were just a two-bit tin can banana republic. Are we NOT a Nation of Laws? Have all public officials NOT had to swear an oath to the Constitution as they assumed office? Is it NOT important to uphold such oaths?
If Paul Ryan is now to be the spokesman for corruption that can only mean that he too is corrupt.

Kind of amusing for Paul Ryan to pretend to be an independent observer here after a year of managing the Murdoch Media's attacks on Trump on Fox, in the Wall Street Journal, etc.. Also, is there any lower form of Internet life than the Daily Mail?

Paul Ryan should be the last person to comment about anything. Here's a man that could not even debate crazy Joe during an election, took up where John Boehner left off and ran the republican congress into the ground and now he is on the board for FOX making decisions and watching this company tank. Here's a man with a reputation of destroying everything that he comes in contact with. Why would I even be interested in hearing what he had to say......I DON'T!

The fact that FOX keeps Paul Ryan there tells me they must not be concerned with their viewers.

Paul Ryan is another glaring example of why the republican party is always grasping defeat from the jaws of victory. I just don't see a future for the republican party unless of coarse they want to remain the party of losers. I'm real curious to see which ones that have openly criticized president Trump will run for president in 2024.

Of all the words being banned, man woman girl boy etc, the one word banned in our home is republican. We no longer recognize that word as anything positive. We are Conservatives. We are not compassionate Conservatives. We are Christian Conservatives. The R word has now joined the N word. Have a blessed day.

Baby Blue Eyes. Still sucking on his bottle. We missed a bullet with that one (those two). But ended up with something just as bad. It took a Trump to restore confidence in the office.

Dirty Dozen? In the movie, the Dirty Dozen fought Facism! Charles Bronson, Jim Brown, Clint Walker, and others risked their lives to kill high-ranking Wehrmacht officers near Rennes in northern France just before the D-Day invasion. Long live the Dirty Dozen!

It is most fortunate that I have never run into Weasel Paul Ryan at the airport, in DC or NYC, or, really anywhere. Whether we met in a secluded or public place, a busy place or a deserted place, with or without CCTV cameras, the results would be the same.
I am at an age where the threat of a lifetime jail sentence would only be a short stay and capital punishment would only speed up the inevitable by a small measure. The only deterrent is gaining access

How did the Republican party collect so many Uniparty eunuchs? It's almost like it's been a coordinated effort since the GWB era. Some of them are no surprise, like Collins, Murkowski and Miss Lindsay but Ryan showed a little promise early on. I guess the swamp swallows them with unpredictable speed, according to weight. When they say "let's move forward" it means, "let's jump over the cliff" because the only direction Joe and the Ho can take us is down.
If they are all caving in to avoid fighting in the streets, we have news for them.

Very classy, in the Bush sense, of Ryan and Romney to hold no ill will toward Joe Biden.
