Speaker of the house

[neurosis]

before your time

Before my time would have been the 60's.   

[Incogneeto]

Then you SHOULD have paid more attention

They don't let you watch much TV in the County Jail.

[Incogneeto]

They also would vote for a dead person before voting for Trump.

I saw that interview too.

I Bet they think this guy is Brilliant at work.

He sounded like the prick that always runs to the front office on others.

[Incogneeto]

If you think Trump can bring this country together, I want some of what you're smoking...because it sounds like you've gotten into Del's stash.

Mind you, he is not the only reason but he is a BIG reason WHY we're in the mess we're in..he is not the solution, he too is part of the problem.

Uhhh I'm still waiting for an Apology. You misread my post and Insulted me with a Vulgar opinion.

My Stash is waaaay better than Del's.

[Incogneeto]

Oh yea, Trump sycophant was one of the things I forgot to mention.   

So Classic....

Here is a Fence . Trump on one side Biden on the Other.

What's your Pick Nero?

[neurosis]

Here is a Fence . Trump on one side Biden on the Other.

What's your Pick Nero?

Here is a fence.  My right nut on one side and my left nut on the other.

What's your pick, Incog? 

Why do I have to pick between two shit bags? Because you say I do? 

[neurosis]

Then you SHOULD have paid more attention

I did. Maybe that's the problem?

[neurosis]

What's your Pick Nero?

I know that you'd like to turn me in to a rigid thinking ideologue like yourself, but you're going to have to wait until Friday night when I've had a couple of cocktails. You might stand a better chance then. 

You can woo me with anti-vax talk or pizza basement pedophiles.  Or maybe some stories about how Obama wasn't a US citizen or his wife is actually a man.

Who is Speaker of the House Mike Johnson

Mr. Johnson is a lawyer specializing in constitutional issues. He earned his juris doctorate from the Paul M. Hebert Law Center at Louisiana State University in 1998 and earned his undergraduate degree in business administration from Louisiana State University in 1995, according to his official website.

He spent nearly 20 years practicing constitutional law, including successfully litigating "high-profile" constitutional law cases in district and appellate courts nationwide, his biography states.

The married father of four was elected to the Louisiana legislature twice without opposition and served in the Louisiana House from 2015 to 2017, before being elected to Congress.

He represents Louisiana's fourth district, which includes nearly 760,000 within 16 parishes in the northwest and western regions of the state.

According to his official website, Mr. Johnson was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives with the largest margin of victory in his region in more than 50 years.

Mr. Johnson is "widely recognized as a leading defender of the right to life, religious liberty, free speech, the Second Amendment, and free market principles," and has "solidified his distinguished reputation as a principled, full-spectrum conservative as the representative for Louisiana's Fourth District," according to his website.

The lawmaker, who is also serving as vice chairman of the House Republican Conference for a second time after being unanimously reelected last year, also describes himself as a "trusted ally" of former President Donald Trump.

In 2020, he rallied Republicans around President Trump's legal efforts questioning the 2020 election results. Mr. Johnson also staunchly defended President Trump during his impeachment hearings.
"President Trump called me this morning to let me know how much he appreciates the amicus brief we are filing on behalf of members of Congress," Mr. Johnson posted on X at the time the brief was introduced. "Indeed, 'this is the big one!'" he added.

Mr. Johnson also serves on the House Judiciary Committee, which is charged with overseeing the administration of justice within the federal courts, federal administrative agencies, and federal law enforcement entities.

The committee is currently probing President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, who has been charged with federal tax crimes, and a firearms-related count.

The Louisiana representative also serves on the Select Committee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, and on the House Armed Services Committee, and is the chairman of its Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government

Mr. Johnson has already received widespread support in his efforts to become House speaker, beating four other candidates, including Reps. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.), Chuck Fleischmann (R-Tenn), Mark Green (R-Tenn.), and Roger Williams (R-Texas), to secure the nomination.
Despite his nomination for the position of House speaker by his colleagues, Mr. Johnson told his fellow lawmakers in a letter over the weekend that he had "never before aspired to the office."

However, after much deliberation, he decided to step forward after Mr. Emmer dropped out in hopes that he could "serve as a trusted caretaker and a good steward of the gavel" and House Republicans could "chart a new path."

"The complex role of speaker at this time requires a team player and a bridge-builder with endless energy and a unique mix of skills and experiences," Mr. Johnson wrote in his letter.

"My extensive background in law, policy, strategic analysis, messaging, managing, networking, and building coalitions happens to have served as uncommon preparation for the extraordinary demands of this day," he continued.

"I would be humbled to earn your support, and, by God's grace, lead our historic cause as your Speaker," he concluded.

Lawmakers will head to the House floor later on Wednesday to vote.

[neurosis]

That's probably the nicest explanation of him that I've seen or heard today.

He sounds like someone who will be very well received by the evangelicals.

I think maybe the Dems and Rinos got sandbagged.

Gateway Pundit

A highy biased and suspect source, but interesting all the same.
The swamp doesn't like sunshine.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) joined the War Room with Steve Bannon on Wednesday morning following the voting last evening for the next Republican Speaker-designate.

During their conversation Matt Gaetz revealed the devious actions of the Old Guard Republicans in their attempts to derail Mike Johnson's vote.

According to Matt Gaetz, Kevin McCarthy was hiding in the background actively working to sabotage the candidates who were running to replace him.
