California governor Newsom points out that Johnson and the congressional Republicans have abdicated their responsibility of co-government. Congressional Republicans represent Donald Trump not the people who elected them.
Yes, and behind all of them are the American Oligarchs. Do not forgot that! It is they who have been working on overthrowing our system of government for over 3 decades. They are the power behind the power. We MUST end Citizens United as soon as we get the chance to do so!
For context, "tar and feather" was perhaps the "cruel and unusual punishment "our founders intended to abolish when they did away with cruel and unusual punishment in our constitution.
Johnson laughs at those who listen to him and don't realize how utterly against everything American he is.
When a leader claims the pious mantle in the public discourse, they should be held accountable to their faith's highest standards. Another conveniently fungible commodity..
Mike Johnson hides behind performative piety, but nothing about his actions reflect the values he claims to live by. It’s easy to say you’re a Christian—much harder to act like one. And his actions speak volumes.

Minimal Mike sold himself to MAGA. He has no piety
He'd likely soil himself if threatened
Amazing he doesn't vomit or gag swallowing so much filth
What profit a man to gain the Speakership but lose his soul, Mike?
It's from the Bible you blaspheme
