The former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis says the January 6 committee members are subpoenaing her because they're 'mad they can't date' herhttps://www.businessinsider.com/jenna-ellis-jan-6-panel-mad-they-cant-date-her-2022-1
Former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis has a theory about why she was subpoenaed by the January 6 panel investigating the Capitol riot.
The committee is just mad they can't date me," Ellis tweeted on Wednesday.
Ellis tweeted the comment after she and three other former Trump lawyers, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Boris Epshteyn, were subpoenaed by the January 6 committee.
Fact check: Rep. Ronny Jackson falsely claims undocumented immigrants have 'easier access' than most citizens to health care and voting
https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/21/politics/fact-check-ronny-jackson-immigrants-health-care-ballot-boxes/index.html
"In 2022, illegal immigrants will have MORE FREEDOMS and easier access to healthcare and ballot boxes than most Americans... Just think about that," Jackson, who has more than 190,000 Twitter followers, tweeted on Sunday.
CNN researched his claims in detail. They are not even close to true.
Facts First: Jackson was thoroughly incorrect. Undocumented immigrants are prohibited from voting in all federal elections, all state elections and almost all local elections; the vast majority of citizens have the right to vote in all three. And undocumented immigrants, unlike citizens, are prohibited from receiving health insurance coverage from Medicare, Medicaid (with the exception of emergency Medicaid), the Children's Health Insurance Program (though some states use CHIP to cover prenatal care for all) and Affordable Care Act exchanges.
"Rep. Jackson's statement is wildly inaccurate," San Francisco State University political science professor Ron Hayduk, who studies political participation and immigration and wrote a book on noncitizen voting, said in an email. Hayduk added: "I'm not sure what world Rep. Jackson lives in but it surely is not in the real world of the U.S. and its 50 states, even accounting for variations among states. The facts are clear and indisputable."

(50,557 posts)Not sure why anyone would want to date her. Shes only passably attractive and the only thing that attracts her is power - she hated Trump until he got the nomination, and then she was all in on him.

It's always refreshing when the truth is finally out.
