House Democrats are furious with Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) over the chamber’s latest swearing-in ceremony.

Johnson on Thursday swore in Rep. Matt Van Epps (R-Tenn.) around 36 hours after his Tuesday special election win. That swift turnaround contrasts sharply with the record-long wait Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) endured, leading Democrats to accuse Johnson of playing partisan games.

“Rep. Van Epps has been sworn in LESS THAN TWO DAYS after winning his election,” read a post from the House Democrats X account. “Rep. Grijalva was sworn in 50 DAYS after hers. House Republicans only act swiftly when it suits them and their billionaire friends.”

Grijalva said that it “must be nice” for Epps in a post on X.

1. Yeah how about that.

2. Unless or until the House Republicans earn respect, they should be given none.

How many Republicans objected or stood up to this intentional act from the Speaker?

4. How many democrats did.

He was sworn in by unanimous consent. Any Democrat including Congresswoman Grijalva could have objected. Mr Cohen, a Democrat asked for Van Epps to get sworn in even though the election was not certified.

3. Maga Mike just loves being a little potentate. Everything he does is just to please his daddy trump
