House GOP's Tiny Spanish Tweet Sparks Massive MAGA Tantrum [View all]
Conservatives lashed out online Tuesday after the House GOP’s official account on X (formerly Twitter) dared to share a post that was partially written in Spanish.
“We speak English here” was a common response from furious right-wing critics.
Some commenters questioned whether the House Republican Conference’s account had been hacked, while others angrily demanded that whoever was responsible for the post be fired.

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) led the chorus of right-wing outrage, posting: “Is this a joke, @HouseGOP? We’re in America. We represent Americans. We don’t pander in foreign languages. Speak English.”
