Adam Schiff, a Sitting Congressman, Gets Community Noted for Not Knowing How Congress Works
Grateful Calvin
Poor Rep. Adam Schiff. He just can't get away with lying to the world anymore. On Tuesday, Adam tried to scaremonger everyone again about Rep. Jim Jordan possibly becoming Speaker of the House. Unfortunately, Adam forgot to read his Constitution (if he owns a copy), specifically the 12th Amendment.
Fortunately, Community Notes arrived to tell Schiff how Congress actually works.
We've said it before and we'll say it again: Community Notes is the best thing Elon Musk has brought to Twitter, and it's not even close. There was not a single traditional 'fact-checker' who called Schiff out on his tweet, but the people did.
So, you know what? We're not going to even take him seriously. He is lying and he knows it. And as great as Community Notes is, Schiff also knows that leftist voters will believe him anyway (there were several replies proving this).

Today, Republicans may make Jim Jordan the Speaker.
Jordan would preside over the counting of electoral votes in the next election.
After he was deeply involved in trying to overturn the last one.
Just when you think they can’t be more irresponsible, they prove you wrong.
Readers added context
The vice president, not the speaker, presides over counting of electoral college votes; and whomever is chosen as speaker in Oct. 2023 will only be speaker during the 1/6/25 electoral count if House Rs retain majority in Nov. 2024
