@makkhorn 🤔 Did Mike Johnson meet persons on Jan 6, who participated in the insurrectionary attack on the U.S. Capitol?

"Johnson’s record does not inspire confidence. He played an outsized role in Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 results, championing a flimsy legal theory to justify fraudulent slates of electors. The group, Republicans for Ukraine, gave Johnson an ‘F’ grade for voting against Ukraine aid in nearly all instances. He voted against the September bill to keep the government open."

@TonyStark women haven’t offered testimony of sexual assaults by Hamas because those women are dead. This is disgusting.

@angiebaby a broadly educated population is toxic to conservative ideologies.

"...Chris Sununu, New Hampshire governor. He suggested he'd vote for Trump if he was the nominee. Why? Because he said, I'm a Republican. Party before country, see? And he said, this is a guy who called Trump bleeping crazy and suggested he should be in a mental institution. That's the Republican Party right now."

So, if right-wingers think that a 13 year old girl is old enough to marry into a sexual relationship with an adult male, but don't want frank and honest sexual education for 13 year olds about their own bodies, to the point of attempting to abuse political power to criminalize age-appropriate sex-ed books, they are just telling us their politics are based, in part, on enabling a sexual fetish for naive, uneducated, easily exploitable children. Do I have that right?

@StillIRise1963 Schumer needs to follow through on his threat on a vote on those 11.

LOL. Mike Johnson is having faces blurred so that the #DOJ cannot “retaliate” against Jan6 rioters. #GOPTraitors

JUST POSTED. In her account of her stint as UN ambassador, Nikki Haley embellishes her supposed diplomatic achievements. On two key fronts—the nuclear programs of North Korea and Iran—the efforts she tout as triumphs did not succeed in curbing these programs. Please read, like, and share my latest:

I’m thrilled Tuberville is lifting his hold on 400+ military nominations. But he should still be expelled.

“Our culture has fallen so far since the founding of our country, and it’s just getting worse.” ~ House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.)

Yeah, look how we've "fallen" since the days of George Washington:
- Outlawed enslaving humans
- Expanded voting rights
- Established public education
- Protected safety of workers
- Insured bank deposits
- Adopted regulations for safe food
- Created Social Security safety net

... and so much more that we can be sure Speaker Johnson and the GOP want to put to an end.

The US State Dept. briefing yesterday highlighted a lot of excellent points.

This one needs more attention: No one is holding Hamas, the elected governing body of Gaza, accountable for the safety of Palestinian civilians.
