... let me give you a quick summary," Johnson responded ...

imo, less of an explanation, and more of the usual politician's comment, ~let me get out of here~ comment.


imo Spkr Johnson is a wuss. No, let me correct my opinion. A lame wuss.

All he seems to do is follow Pres Trump's orders.

Totally ignoring the Constitution's co-equal government dictum.


imo, he has failed the requirements of the most respected position he occupies.

And, if I may add as a corollary ...

What does that say about the Republicans who put him in that position?

Asked differently, Spkr Johnson is the best and the brightest of the GOP in the House of Representatives?

Arch blasphemer and shoddy frontispiece for America's super-wealthy oligarchs Republican Mike Johnson knows more about theology than Pope Leo XIV?

Talk about hubris.

It's weird, but I really do think Pope Leo has a firmer grasp of the Bible (especially the New Testament, the part Christians didn't appropriate from another people with another religion) than Bossier Parish's very own wannabe Elmer Gantry (but lacking Gantry's fire and wisdom).

For a guy on video explaining he doesn't know things, Johnson sure thinks he knows things.

I think he's just a lying wuss.

The fake plastic Christian giving a half a&&ed "lesson" to a guy who has spent his entire life studying this stuff...

Must be why the Pope cites New Testament while dips*&^ fake plastic Chreestian cites Old Testament.

Mikey is speaking with his lower rear mouth.

New converts to Christianity were not expected to be circumcised, nor to follow Jewish food and other laws... as a matter of fact, neither were Jews who converted.

And the his mealy-mouthed talk about immigrants (or sojourners in the bible) is the polar opposite of the truth.

The Pope and Johnson have a common problem ... pedophiles in their power structure.

Remarkable that the Christian villains target young goyim, while the Jewish villains target young shiksas

What a mystery story to write or comic book to illustrate.

Why doesn't Trump respond to the Pope? Trump is after all the White Christian Nationalist Messiah.

I wouldn't put it past Johnson to be IN the files.

My first impession of the rather fey gent was this is the kind of political animal that steadfastly believes his de regure knee-jerk piety grants him carte blanch to nakedly and repeatedly fib to the American public, despite any credible or factual push-back to the contrary. It's a Bronze Age zombie yarn some have historically found useful in controling those with little to no ability to recognize how "bad" Angry Sky Daddy can be in determining who makes society's on-going pact with itself fair & just for everyone. $20 says he has a Grindr account.
