await interaction.response.send_message() always returns None

You can get around this by using await interaction.channel.send() which returns discord.Message and therefore you are able to add_reaction()

    message = await interaction.channel.send(f"**{question}**", embed=emb)

    await message.add_reaction('👍')

Late, but there is a better way of doing this. Using interaction.original_response we can get the interactionMessage object and add reaction from there.

await interaction.response.send_message(f"**{question}**", embed=emb)
msg = await interaction.original_response()
await msg.add_reaction('👍')
