Is amazing how quickly he capitulated. That points to one thing ...he is compromised. If it was a slow process one can say that the machine is grinding him down and he had to give it up here and there but this quickly? He is an intel captive. Alex Jones said many years ago that a person can't get a senior position in DC if the Deep State do NOT have something on them. Blackmail is how the skids are greased in DC.

AIPAC gave Mike Johnson $95000.00 so I think hes working for them too. The guy is a traitor to his own party.

Judging people is wrong, but watching a professing Christian do the things he is doing is a head scratcher. MTG thinks he might be blackmailed. Are they threatening to kill his family if he doesn’t cooperate?

Read the book(s) by Whitney Webb, one of the few decent reporters left in the US, called One Nation under Blackmail. The Epstein affair is just the latest. This has been going on in the US forever. They threaten and blackmail each other like crazy. If you are squeeky clean they'll just manufacture something on you. It is truly a bunch of sociopaths screwing each other. The most evil win.

Whitney doesn't actually live in the US... probably because she's smart.

The Uniparty strikes again! Against the people again!

What we are dealing with is a two-winged bird of prey that will, like a vulture, kill almost anything that interferes with its goals, which include the complete subjugation of the people.

The UniParty is the Facist Party. Johnson was probably compromised before he was selected Speaker.

"He’s either compromised by the national security state or he’s compromised by the corporate interests which control the GOP establishment."

Those entities doing the compromising control a whole lot more than the GOP establishment; they control everything and nearly every person in government, at all levels, not just DC. The only reason "they" need the illusion of a Congress is, exactly as you say, "more money" for everyone but us. Since only the House can appropriate these insane sums, and since "they" need the House to do that to siphon our wealth for their oligarch friends, "they" continue to pretend we have a choice. We don't. And, FWIW, changing speakers will not change anything meaningfully; the next speaker will also be compromised immediately and will do the bidding of the owning cabal, just like this one did.

How can you tell what someone else's commitment is? Answer: By the results!

How can you tell when someone else is keeping their commitment? Answer: Because they will take EVERY RELEVANT STEP ALONG THE WAY.

Clearly Mike Johnson is not committed to MAGA. He is a swindler, charlatan, and con-artist.

Let's not forget Johnson's inability to convince apostate RINOs not to resign before the fall and going along with kicking George Santos out before any legal action against him warranted his eviction (losing another reliable conservative vote). At best Johnson's inept; at worst he's playing ball with the Uniparty's scheme to regain control of the House prior to the '24 election.

Agreed. But the 'other side' of this coin... is that because the economy is going to crash before November, I think Trump wants the entire enchilada to be in the lap of the dip-shit-iots. That way there is absolutely nothing the Ds can say to attempt people to blame any of the wreckage on Trump. Trump = Art of War & 5D Chess. I think he has all of this planned out to the Nth Degree. And with this maneuver of the D's taking back the House, Trump is coaxing the deepest of the deep state and hiding RINO's out of the shadows. Let's watch them [the Uniparty] struggle and squirm because Trump and General Smith hold all of the nuclear launch codes.

So if trump's so "smart", how was the 2020 election stolen right out from under him? How about the connection between the "two weeks to flatten the curve" lockdowns and all that Covid stimulus money and the high inflation and crashing economy? Then there's the "Warp Speed" Vaxxs.

My own opinion is that Johnson is faced with the resignations of 2 or more Republicans that woould put the Crime Family in control of the House. You have commented on this before and that may be the best explanation.On control they will use the control to stop Trump.

Let's say that he's compromised. The thing I'm thinking about is - what would I do if I learned that he took a bribe, that he cheated on his wife, that he's really gay, that his brother is being considered for prosecution (my ability to imagine what 'compromised' means is limited). I'm in CO-3 and Lauren Boebert (while she represents CO-3) has issues, but I know that she's a human and don't expect her to be perfect. What do they have on him that he would betray and lie to the American people.

I'm not sure which part of that you are questioning, but, yes, that whole thing was serious.

This Robinson comment section is re-arranging my brain’s “constitution/bill of rights” understanding; we the people will be served last, after the uniparty end game!

Looking at Johnson's face, if you put Liz Cheney's hair on him, they would be hard to tell apart!

I contributed to you, Emerald, and I regret it. You don't post often enough and it's never anything but warmed over news.

There was a reason they voted down Jim Jordan as Speaker before they chose Johnson. Now we are seeing why. Jordan has a backbone. Johnson has the spine of a jellyfish.

Rand Paul is also fed up with Johnson. Will this be the shortest lived speakership ever? I'm sure McCarthy is praying for it.

As it should, Emerald. Mike is a puppet of the corrupted deep state uniparty of malfeasant government.
