"Trump Question Unleashes Jerkish Behavior Among Republican House Members"

Republican House members, including Speaker nominee Rep. Mike Johnson, reacted aggressively when questioned about their efforts to undermine democracy and overturn the 2020 election results. Journalist Rachel Scott was shouted down and told to "shut up" by the lawmakers. The House has been without a speaker since Rep. Kevin McCarthy's ousting, and Johnson is now the fourth candidate nominated for the position. Critics condemned the behavior of the GOP lawmakers, calling it a disregard for democracy.
