Williams on Speaker Johnson: I Couldn’t Vote to Save His Speakership Knowing that He Couldn’t Affirm to Accept the 2024 Election

RUSH EXCERPT:
WILLIAMS: "Well, first, reverend al, thank you for having this conversation, because I want to be clear, I was not voting with Marjorie Taylor Greene. My job is to represent the people of Georgia’s fifth congressional district, and the very day that this motion was brought to the floor to table Mike Johnson’s motion to vacate, he held a press conference, reverend al, and could not even affirm that he would accept the results of the 2024 election. So I could not in good faith representing this seat that was once held by John Lewis, representing Atlanta, Georgia, steeped in our civils rights history and voting rights, I couldn’t stand there and vote to save his speakership knowing that he could notch affirm he could accept the 2024 election results and was one of the architects of the plan to overturn the 2020 election results."
