Editor’s Note: While the media and other leftist elites ignore the millions of folks living in “flyover” states, they do so at their own peril; it was this silent majority that put President Trump in the White House. Each week, Liberty Nation gives voice to the hard-working heartlanders who are silent no more.

American patriots from across the country gathered in the Swamp to protest the election results as Congress and Vice President Mike Pence gathered to certify and record the Electoral College votes. In Georgia, the U.S. Senate run-off shifted the balance of power from a narrow Republican stronghold to a slim Democratic advantage. It was an unsatisfactory week, to say the least, that began with the 117^th Congress demonstrating a level of ridiculousness and stupidity this country must now endure – for the short term.

So Be It

The opening day for the 117^th Congress went about as well as one would expect when there are lunatics in charge of the asylum. As usual, a prayer was given, asking the help of the Divine to watch over the esteemed lawmakers. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) followed the plea with a pithy and oh-so-woke reinvention: He said Amen. Then he said Awoman. Now flyover folks are calling him Amoron.

Donald Trump, Jr agreed, saying, “These people are morons.” Susan Stevens Hilderman in Bay Village, OH, helped to clarify for the non-religious: “The closing ‘Amen’ does not denote gender. In Hebrew, Amen means ‘so be it’. I have no idea what it means in Shebrew, though.”

But Dave Meador from Michigan was thoroughly confused: “I thought there was no such thing as men or women … The left is BEYOND deranged.”

Believe it or not, this was only the beginning of the progressive-insane uprising.

House Rules

The term House Rules has taken on a whole new meaning in hallowed halls. Adopting new rules on language allowed Democrats shoved through another asinine complication for lawmakers: Gender identity ideology will be policed. We now have gender-neutral language demands passed by a 217 to 206 party-line vote. Ah, inclusion!

The new policy wasn’t well-received. Yet heartlanders want all of America to be clear on what you can and cannot say in the 117^th Clown Car – er, Congress:

“Clause 8(c)(3) of rule XXIII, strike ‘’father, mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, first cousin, nephew, niece, husband, wife, father-in-law, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, stepfather, stepmother, stepson, stepdaughter, stepbrother, step-sister, half brother, half-sister, grandson, or grand-daughter’ and insert ’parent, child, sibling, parent’s sibling, first cousin, sibling’s child, spouse, parent-in-law, child-in-law, sibling-in-law, stepparent, stepchild, stepsibling, half-sibling, or grandchild.’”

Could these elected officials comport any more ridiculously? Teresa Henderson in Fayetteville, TN, was offended. “Not using the word ‘mother’ is one of the greatest insults to women and women’s rights ever. Telling us how to speak and what words we can and can’t use is just more fascism and forced suppression.”

But a plan emerged from Texas, as Mark Grigg from Smyer suggested: “And The house shall be renamed ‘Outhouse.’”

Witnessing the craziness of an election to be forever contested and the fall out of such, New Mexican Amanda Garcia helped us rewrite our Pledge of Allegiance for the next couple of years:

“I pledge allegiance, to the flag of the United States under China, and to the Republic, for which it kills, under one world order, with no God, no liberty and no justice for me and for thee.”

“Dear God, protect us from this abject stupidity. Amen.”
