Yeah, even us in other countries know goddamn well how deer in the pornlights Johnson looks these days. How the fuck was Kevin McCarthy a better speaker than this swamp rat?

mostly it’s because he’s a sociopath, fascist dick bag.

She didn’t even get sworn in yet and she’s already more of a threat than half of Congress.

Well, DUH. The Republican Epstein cover-up is part of the reason they WANT this government shutdown. They’re trying to buy Trump more time to come up with new distractions.

Key quote:
>However, the House did hold a three-and-a-half-minute procedural session on Tuesday – one Grijalva attended along with dozens of Democrats, in hopes of getting Johnson to swear her in. No luck, even though Johnson administered the oath to two Republicans who won special elections in Florida during a similar session earlier this year….
>A spokesperson for Johnson pointed to his comments signaling that Grijalva will be sworn in when the House returns to session, but that will not happen until funding is restored to the government.

Release the files! It’s crazy that they think this avoidance of the issue will work. They look guilty.

It’s insane that he has the power to just deny this district its elected representative.
Republicans genuinely hate small-d democracy.
Careful-Rent5779 on
Yes,
Johnson is just TheRumps lapdog, without even being compensated with dog food.

I think there’s more to this than just releasing the files – I’m positive now that Yam Tits had the dude killed

He is denying citizens the representation they lawfully voted for and the constitution demands. Mike Johnson is a traitor.

Yes.

Yes. Absolutely. Correct.

Honestly, how does Johnson and his Gang of Pedophiles ever return to Congress to do the work for the people they were all elected to do without exposing and revealing themselves and/or Trump for being a participant to one degree or another of what Epstein was doing? Is our government not just shutdown… but over? If that’s the case, then what does that make them to the rest of the country? No longer elected or official, they are nothing but the people who would ruin the country to protect a bunch of sex offenders.

Get ready for this to be used in the midterm election. You a Democrat? Well there was fraud so we need to wait to investigate before we seat you. Republican? OK you’re in, nothing fraudulent about your election.

She should pinky promise to not demand the files.
And then fucking demand the files.

I mean, people scoffed at me when I said if/when the dems win another election, that this was going to be the play: just refuse to certify, delay delay delay, announced fraud investigations, election interference, you name it. And yet…

Yes, but he’d obstruct and delay regardless. There’s simply no decency and so no reason adhere to norms.

I worry the precedence here is Democrats will no longer be sworn in. I know probably not realistic but a lot of events I thought not possible have occurred.
ArchdruidHalsin on
Yes
Nice_Soup3198 on
YES.
And YES!
Next question…

Signs point to yes.

Time to make another donation to the Democrat running for his district. Conrad Cable, and I like his policies.
The ONLY reason Johnson is speaker is because he has skeletons in his closet, so Trump see’s that as a form of protection. Time to vote him out.

Is Mike a hypocrite?

Not only do repubs not want to swear her in to prevent Epstein file release, they also don’t want to do it because she’s a democrat. If she was Republican, she would have been sworn in so fast your head wouldn’t have time to spin. Do expect them to find a rule/law/excuse as to why she can never be sworn in… like it’s too close to a presidential election… or the sun rose in the east… or water is wet. They will come up with something.
