He was on Fox & Friends this morning.

While receiving constant oral sex from Kilmeade, he was actually asked a pointed question by Doocy…

Doocy: “You were saved by Democrats. They didn’t save Kevin McCarthy, but they sure saved you. Why did they do that?”

Johnson: “Because they believe like I do. They believe in the institution. We can’t let the Congress be stuck. We have to save the world. If we allowed chaos and stagnation to interrupt the people’s work, then Iran could have fired nuclear missiles at Israel. China would take over Taiwan. Russia would take over Ukraine and push through Europe.”

Yes he actually said that. All that BS notwithstanding, I found one part particularly eye opening…

“Iran could launch nuclear missiles at Israel.”

Okay. So, from his statement we may infer one of the following:

- He’s bull shitting

- The CIA bull shitted him and he believes it

- Iran really does have nuclear weapons and he let the cat out of the bag

Whichever one it is, it sucks.

I was surprised there was no follow up from Doocy.

Our domestic AND foreign policy are all dominated by Israel and “conservatives” are happy about it

This is the problem right there. No, we don't. The best outcome in the Middle East for 'The World' would be for Israel, Iran, and 'Palestine'/Hamas to be destroyed. That is the only way to bring actual peace to the region.

How is this statement a win for him in his mind?

Either everyone thinks he is full of shite (he is) or he is admitting that Iran has nukes, which is a failure of the Obama and Biden administrations that he is enabling.

Washington D.C. is like Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Send a normal person up there and they come back as one of THEM.

he supposedly also gave a long speech about the lawfare against Trump.

Paul Ryan was probably biting his pillow.

That picture is clearly photoshopped.

I don't see Hakeem Jeffries behind him manipulating him like a ventriloquist dummy.

It's beyond frustrating. He said no foreign aid until our border is secure. Completely caved on that.

Then passed the ridiculous foreign aid package lumping Ukraine and Israel together only to have Biden now hold up Israel. It's obvious he got played.

Feels hopeless if this is the best we can do.

Narcissistic in many ways. I wonder if some of them actually believe it. I have to assume the Pelosi and John Kennedy types at least internally know this to be false.

Wouldn't the world be better off if Israel and Iran lobbed nuclear weapons at each other?

Obviously, he didn’t say Iran currently had missles with nuclear warheads.

It seems some of you won’t be happy
unless Congress either implodes or just adjourns permanently. Maybe you’d be happy with the executive branch as the single branch of government (if Trump was president, of course) God save America. from that prospect.

I feel like every morning when Johnson shows up to the Capitol, Hakeem is there at the door and says, "Hold. My. Pocket!", and then parades him around all the offices to let everyone know who's in charge.

And don't forget, Trump is totally onboard with this because Johnson "is a good man and trying really hard", just like the most unathletic kid on the team that gets a participation trophy. And Trump wants a new FBI building. And he thinks that pumping billions into DC to make it shiny and pretty is going to fix the nation's problems. Oh and he wants to increase the budget at Dept of Ed as well. Super smart guy. Totally patriotic too - sure, sure, let the Democrats burn the country down through their personal hand puppet, Mike Johnson, and don't dare think anything is wrong. Just let the controlled demolition of the United States continue, because of all the winning that will happen when Trump gets elected and then becomes Lindsey Graham's personal hand puppet, right?

Our nation is being destroyed and a lot of people here think it will be saved by a dumbass with a silver spoon that fricks porn whores, spends like Pelosi, has no clue how to hire and fire people, puts his support behind a Dem agenda, says you should take the guns first and due process second, and believes fancy building projects save a nation. The man is a supreme dumbass. He deserves full restitution from the political persecution, but he does not deserve to govern ever again.
