Author, philosopher, bon vivant, iconoclast. Democracy is messy, but it beats the hell out of autocracy.
One would have to be blind or delusional to deny the reality.
You do understand that everything he's doing to Washington DC is about fortifying the city when he decides he's not leaving office

Anyone surprised by Johnson’s move to shut down Congress to stop an impeachment vote on Hegseth.

Vote the incompetent GOP out. #MidTerms

Regardless of the number of Super Bowl wins he has (which, btw, counts for nothing), Robert Kraft is still a loathsome piece of shit.

I'm an American citizen, and I approve this plan.
Hey mainstream media outlets! How about you boycott the White House? If nobody shows up to cover the news…. He would literally go out of his mind. He can’t live without attention. Maybe we stop giving it to him because everything he says are lies anyway.

I see that lil' Mikey Johnson is suffering from #TrumpDerangementSyndrome.
As an American political historian, I can confirm that this Congress has been "almost unmatched in history" in several categories -- sad abdication of its war powers, craven surrender of the power of the purse, weird refusal to conduct meaningful oversight, and an utter failure to pass actual laws.
Mike Johnson claims that the current Congress is "probably in the top three or four of all time" and is "almost unmatched in history" 🙃

Worst. Ad. Ever.
How many people worked on this commercial? How many brainstormed, scripted, planned, shot, edited and reviewed it before airing?

I didn't know any of this.

Of course, none of it matters to someone who supports Trump.

The biggest mistake in American history was not dragging Trump off to prison within 24 hours of Jan 6th.

We’ll all pay for that for the rest of our lives, if the MIDTERMS go south…

Now, go VOTE! 😎✨

The truth of this is only shocking to those that have tried to deny the truth of electing a confirmed felon, entitled, spoiled brat, and career criminal who has been a scofflaw all his life. America is getting what it deserves.

It’s insane that people in Congress are paid over $174K a year in taxpayer dollars whilst making millions of dollars from insider trading whilst getting 18 vacations a year as Americans all over the country struggle to pay for rent, gas and groceries.

Mike Johnson sending the House home to avoid a vote on Pete Hegseth’s impeachment is a cowardly disgrace…and another reminder why these anti-democratic, pro-war, pro-Trump, Epstein file coverup enablers and Republican failures need to be sent home permanently.

This.

They've been so corrupt that they can't afford to lose this election. It's not just about losing power; it's knowing they'll be held accountable for their crimes, too.
He does but one day people will be fed up with the Republicans corruption and greed and will finally want to vote them out that is the problem they recognize and have to address while they still have the power to do it, they worked to hard to just give it up.

I realize that many years ago voters determined that character and honesty were not that important to them in a president or members of Congress, but it seems that when you have a historically unprecedented level of lying about everything with rampant corruption they should care.

Every day that major media fail to clearly declare that the president is out of his mind and is building a dictatorship is a day when they are betraying their duty to the American people.

Mitch McConnell is dead. Prove me wrong.
Mitch McConnell supposedly had an in-depth discussion on a wide array of foreign and domestic policy topics with Scott Jennings exactly 2 months ago and we still have no video from Mitch nor has he agreed to any kind of interview with anyone or showed up to work.
