Is morality a "scam"? Without it, a society cannot exist.
'Extinct snake discovered in India is the largest ever recorded' & is matched in modern times ONLY by Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson yet former AG Bill Barr is close second
Republican Speaker is now known officially (as the word is the Congress is making urgent name changes) so the record is reflective accurately: for your record, it is now 'Speaker Mike JohnsonLESS"

Pelosi Endorses Speaker Johnson as Removal Vote Looms
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has declared her support for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) as he faces calls for his removal from within his own party.
Johnson is facing a possible removal vote this week, but has the Republican leader already been replaced?

Former Speaker Pelosi is now endorsing Johnson and backing her party’s efforts to keep him in his leadership position.
Mike Johnson, Leader of the Free World
The House Speaker rejects U.S. decline and retreat from global leadership.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization summit this week will spawn many discussions about America’s role in the world, but the most important speech of the week may be Republican Mike Johnson’s on Monday at the Hudson Institute. The House Speaker laid down a marker for a GOP that rejects U.S. decline and retreat abroad.
“While democracy is not perfect, the burden of self-government is certainly far lighter than the yoke of tyranny,” Mr. Johnson said. “But right now, absent American leadership, we’re looking at a future that could be” defined by “communism and tyranny, rather than liberty and opportunity and security.”
Mr. Johnson said Chinese President Xi Jinping wants to expand “his communist footholds.” Vladimir Putin imagines a Russian empire that includes the Baltics, and Iran aspires to wipe Israel off the map. The Biden Administration is “appeasing and apologizing and accommodating.Joe Biden doesn’t treat China like an enemy. He’s stopped supporting Israel, and has cozied up to Iran to revive the failed nuclear deal,” he said.
The Speaker defended Donald Trump’s record and called on European allies to live up to their defense spending commitments. He noted the security risks of an uncontrolled southern border and the rising national debt, which will require hard spending adjustments.
But most notable was the larger picture Mr. Johnson painted. He didn’t indulge a false choice between meeting problems at home and threats abroad. He is pushing his party in the direction of Ronald Reagan, which is correct for the world moment and politically popular.
America is threatened “by Chinese Communists, by Russian oligarchs, and Islamic terrorists. We can choose to ignore them, we can try to appease them,” the Speaker said. “Or we can choose another course. . . . We can rearm, rebuild, reinvigorate, restore, and reinstate fear in our enemies.” Decline “is always a choice. That is not a choice that Republicans will be making anytime soon.”
Mr. Trump could hardly do better than repeat Mr. Johnson’s message word for word at next week’s GOP convention.
Speaker Mike Johnson brought the bill linking temporary funding for the federal government with a mandate that states require proof of citizenship when people register to vote; LOST 220-202 (14 Repubs & all but 3 democrats voted AGAINST it, can you imagine that? 14 fucking Republicans voted against a bill requiring proof of citizenship?)
‘The vote was 220-202, with 14 Republicans and all but three Democrats opposing the bill. Johnson, who said after the vote he was “disappointed,” will likely pursue a Plan B to avoid a partial shutdown, though he was not yet ready to share details.
“We’ll draw up another play and we’ll come up with a solution,” Johnson said. “I’m already talking to colleague about their many ideas. We have time to fix the situation and we’ll get right to it.”’
This is the issue peoples, we have Republicans subverting us, are voting with democrats, destroying USA…we need to vote these bitches out, all of them…I give testicle-LESS Mike props for bringing it but this smells fishy too, almost all designed to play with us…to fail…

He wants more election fraud. He's part of the problem. A big part.
The House Speaker rejects U.S. decline and retreat from global leadership.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has revealed that investigators have uncovered a “massive scandal” involving the Democrat fundraising platform ActBlue. ...
The speaker said that Democrats have been hiding donations from adversarial foreign nations in a money laundering scheme.
Johnson spoke about this to the media after House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) issued a confidential memo outlining evidence of the problem.
Comer said the Treasury is looking into hundreds of Suspicious Activity Reports surrounding ActBlue.
The Democrat fundraising platform has been implicated in a scheme where large donations are falsely attributed to several individual small donors.
Weird that Johnson is objecting
