| Douchebag honors a terrorist. |
The outgoing Texas lawmaker is a white extremist and supporter of the Jan. 6 insurrection. Thankfully we may have seen the last of him. He is one of the 90 members of Congress who have relatively no accomplishments whatsoever.
Rep. Karen Gohmert (R-TX) was a former judge from Tyler, Texas. He entered Congress and soon became a far right extremist who spends most of his time scapegoating.
He is a conspiracy theorist, climate change denier and white supremacist.
During Barack Obama's term her was a birther and flat out racist. He also was a part time guest host for Softball Hannity's right wing carnival.
Gohmert along with Rep. Idiot Karen Greene (R-GA) demand the U.S. Justice Department release some participants of the insurrection due to their treatment in federal custody.
He reportedly honored a COVID-19 denier and anti-mask mandate extremist.
Heartfelt moments as Dr. Simone Gold has officially been released from prison, being met by Representative Louie Gohmert, the AFLDS team, and her supporters.

I am honored to receive this recognition from Congressman Gohmert, a true believer in freedom and a fierce defender of our constitutional rights.

Happy Freedom Day to @drsimonegold! I'm honored to be here with you after some vindictive DOJ personnel decided to lock you down in a MAXIMUM SECURITY prison.

Gohmert met with Dr. Karen Gold on Friday after she was released from federal prison.
Gold, the founder of America's Frontline Doctors, a group that spreads disinformation and conspiracy theories about the COVID-19 pandemic, was previously known for touting unproven claims during the pandemic.
In March, Gold took a plea agreement for her involvement in the riot.
Gold pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, according to the plea agreement, Insider's Ashley Collman previously reported. She was sentenced to 60 days in prison in June, CNN reported.

| Gold does not look like a political prisoner. She ate healthy in the federal time out. |
In a press release, Gohmert falsely called Gold a "political prisoner" and blamed President Joe Biden's administration for "unjustly prosecuting" her.
"After having her name and reputation shamefully dragged through the mud, the Biden administration's DOJ threw her in prison for peacefully walking into the U.S. Capitol on January 6 and delivering a speech. Dr. Gold is the definition of what a political prisoner looks like—something I never thought I'd see here in the United States of America," Gohmert said.
"God Bless Dr. Gold. History will not look kindly upon those who persecuted—and prosecuted—doctors who spoke out against the COVID lockdown, mask and vaccine mandates."
Gold, in a tweet, said she was "honored" to receive the recognition.
"I am honored to receive this recognition from Congressman Gohmert, a true believer in freedom and a fierce defender of our constitutional rights," Gold wrote.
This is what President Joe Biden was talking about in his Philadelphia speech. These Republicans are too extreme. Had it been Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) honoring a man who was accused of an attack and was a practicing Muslim, the far right would loose their shit.
The double standard of whiteness exists in America. Gohmert is too stupid to realize that he is only hurting the Republicans by posing with a terrorist.
