Was a Jan 6. GOP member's speech removed from the Congressional Record?
I saw this on the wikipedia, and I recall having read in a few places that the Congressional Record had been amended to remove a statement made by a Republican member of Congress during the Jan 6. challenge.

Is that true? If so, does anyone have any information on which Congressman, and why?

Any info is helpful.

2. Delay was over the top.
Plus, while trying to insult activists, he used the term "Late Night Conspiracy"...which happens to be what WE are charging.

But, indeed, what are they hiding this time?

3. I think they can change the record.
I recall my mother-in-law going off they wall when they let them do this and she has been dead for years so it was 30 years ago that they could do that.

5. Last I heard they removed DeLay's speech
I was so appalled at his speech that I downloaded a copy of it as well as Boxer's at the other end of the spectrum. Glad I did, now. It's on myh other computer, or I would post it here. Maybe later when I activate the big guy.

9. As I recall he got a little sarcastic and much of his speech
sounded remarkably like a confession.

8. We went through this a few weeks ago.
DeLay's speech was still there. I can't find the link this instant, but let me know if you need it.

Actually, one of the highlights of the entire day, for me.

Sort of like ROFLMAO:puke:ing.
