re: Mike Johnson needed a large police presence to travel to the state capitol.

He does have the protection. He sent them away so he could get his back door "hammered" in.

Johnson asked for the job and was given it by virtue of the values/policies which he promised to serve, and when he changed his allegiance 180 degrees. What the hell should anybody who did this expect from those who supported their 'leadership'.

He should resign from Congress and go back to his Chruch. He has proven himself untrustworthy, under highly questionable political pressure. It may not be his fault that the System is now totally corrupt, but he knew what DC was/is and is now powerless to represent the values of the constituents who chose him. He's done.

He didn't make it through his first real legislative battle as Speaker. Sad really.

I mean at least if you are going to pretend fight, throw a believable punch.

I'm glad he needed it
