No women will lead a House committee for the first time in two decades after House Republicans revealed their list of committee leaders for the 119th Congress. No people of color were selected, either.

At least they're being true to old time Biblical values. I don't know how Pubs accept any woman in a leadership position. Didn't God tell them not to listen to any advice from a woman?

I thought Empty G was running the new "Suck Up to Co-President Elon" House committee? Or is that not a real thing?

This is what the leadership of a MAGA Congress looks like, Lilly white males...

Lyndsey Graham could have won a Committee!

They would certainly qualify, if you've ever seen them on their period AND on tv.

Republican Party returning women to a time long ago, when they may have had the vote, but had no power.
Your bodies, our choice, in all matters all the time.
And if you don't like it, take it to the bigoted Supreme Corrupt Court!

I'd like to see YOU define what a "woman" is ... in front of a woman.

This year apparently the definition of a woman includes a human that is not allowed to serve on House committees.

Why the worry, unless someone can tell us that the position is just allowed to be filled by whatever the dems deem a woman is.
