Just like the Nazis!

Yet another example of so-called "conservatives" wasting taxpayer dollars.

Does "fiscal responsibility" mean anything nowadays? Are conservatives still touting it as a cornerstone value over there in the US?

Yes, while at the same time pissing it away like there's no tomorrow.

Pissing it away into their own pockets and the pockets of their handlers.

Words haven't had meaning for some time now.

You'd think these people would have something more important to do with the money the American tax payer is paying them than punching down on minorities.

delay, deny, and depose

Demonizing trans people, putting trans lifes at risk just so people won't notice how they are destroying the planet with their greed.

Isn’t this the guy who adopted the boy he was dating?

I thought that was Gaetz, did Johnson do it too?

I know he apparently had a masturbation schedule with his biological son, or something like that.

I thought it was that they get messages about what porn the other watches.

It’s difficult to keep them straight

Yup, Johnson too. These are weird guys.

The new right-wing House Speaker Mike Johnson has an adult "adopted" Black son.

He explained why his son has chosen to keep a low profile and stay out of his public life.

Johnson has likened their experience to that in "The Blind Side," starring Sandra Bullock.
