Will Sean Hannity, Matt Gaetz, and Jim Jordan start their segment tonight with the Pledge of Allegiance? 🤔
Why doesn't Matt Gaetz start every day on Twitter by tweeting out the Pledge of Allegiance? Hmm???
I just remembered that I did this previously with Boris Epshteyn because he suggested that people should do the Pledge "at every chance." (I don't believe he has been doing the Pledge "at every chance" but I have not been keeping track.)
UPDATE: Gaetz posted a video of his interview with Hannity (alongside Jordan) and it did NOT include anyone reciting the Pledge despite having roughly six minutes of airtime. 🧐
(Hannity promoted Gaetz's book twice.)
UPDATE 2: At the end of his YouTube video, Gaetz says that people can "like and subscribe to our YouTube channel," among other things. But his other suggestions do NOT include stating the Pledge of Allegiance. 😞

There are a lot of pathetic things about this amendment, including that Marjorie Taylor Greene has attacked Rep. Ilhan Omar for being Muslim (mediamatters.org/congress/marjo…) and used violent rhetoric (cnn.com/2020/09/04/pol…) against her and the Squad.
Greene is a bigot who falsely thinks that Rep. Omar is an illegitimate member of Congress because she took her congressional oath of office on the Quran.
On Facebook in 2018, now-Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) endorsed a conspiracy theory that Hillary Clinton participated in a satanic child murder and ordered a hit on a police officer to cover it up. mediamatters.org/facebook/marjo…
Greene also liked a meme that was posted to her Facebook page in June 2018 claiming that Democrats have used the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program for human trafficking, pedophilia, and organ harvesting. (The meme has since been removed.)
Additionally, Greene is a QAnon and 9/11 conspiracy theorist who has endorsed the false claims that the Parkland and Sandy Hook school shootings were staged.
Republicans recently selected her to be on the House Committee on Education and Labor: edweek.org/policy-politic…
In a newly uncovered 2018 FB post, Marjorie Taylor Greene endorsed the conspiracy theories that 9/11 was an inside job and that the Sandy Hook shooting was staged. She also (again) endorsed the conspiracy theory that the Parkland shooting was staged. mediamatters.org/false-flag-con…
@mmfa reported earlier this week that in other FB posts, Greene agreed that the Parkland shooting was actually a false flag planned event and claimed to have been told that House Speaker Pelosi has been saying that "we need another school shooting." mediamatters.org/false-flag-con…
Republican House leader Kevin McCarthy previously and falsely defended (washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…) Greene over her support for QAnon. His Twitter (@GOPLeader) header image currently features him with the GOP House freshman class, with Greene just a few spots away from him.
The Arizona GOP and chair Kelli Ward are boosting the longshot House campaign of self-described QAnon follower Daniel Wood.
During a recent video, Ward told Wood that he is "a man after my own heart" and encouraged people to help elect him to Congress. mediamatters.org/qanon-conspira…
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) also recently endorsed Wood:
Additionally, Wood featured a photo of him and Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) on his Facebook page last month:
Here are some of Moutos' tweets encouraging violence against Black Lives Matter:
Moutos -- again, he's a Texas assistant attorney general -- is also an anti-Muslim and anti-LGBTQ bigot who has tweeted that places are "overrun with Muslims" and said that people "should use" the ACLU for "target practice" because they support transgender rights.
HHS assistant secretary Michael Caputo previously "spread baseless conspiracy theories about the coronavirus, praised white supremacist Milo Yiannopoulos, and said Democrats are 'counting' on COVID-19 fatalities in order to win." (via @peltzmadeline) mediamatters.org/coronavirus-co…
Caputo states on his LinkedIn profile that he directs "public affairs for the largest US government cabinet agency at the center of an historic pandemic" and he drives "a force of nearly 700 communicators delivering national COVID response public health information."
