  1. To too mega garbage extremists

  2. Stephaniks speech was as tone deaf as it gets

  3. Hes perfect. Elf on a shelf. Just sit there and do nothing til someone moves you around. Otherwise sit there smiling on the shelf.

  4. Obviously the 2020 election was full of corruption and problems. God help anyone who can't see that.

  5. Yay ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

  6. They werenโ€™t lies. The fraud was obvious. ITโ€™s journalists from propagandist organizations like NBC that are lying. FAR too much evidence to even entertain thinking Biden won. Itโ€™s laughable.

  7. A new low for the Republican Party. The MAGA goons have installed their puppet to do Trumps bidding.

  8. What people don't realize is this guy is going to steal the election for Trump by refusing to certify a Biden victory irrespective of the popular and electoral vote count. That will throw it into the House where the one vote per state will ensure a Trump selection. After that, it's just a matter of Trump declaring martial law, giving himself emergency powers rubber stamped by the radical right wing SCOTUS, and pardoning himself of both state and federal charges while putting an American Army on our streets to keep us all under his boot heel.

  9. Won't be that much long until he's removed.

  10. A crazy trump supporter? we are done.

  11. MAGA Mike Johnsonโ€ฆ..vote blue people or start losing your rights

  12. Politically, Quite possibly the worst state in the Union. Great food, fun people, and pork barrel backwoods politics.

  13. Well, GYM JORDAN. DIDN'T GET THE VOTES 4 SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.
    BUT IM GLAD SOMEONE GOT THE POSITION.
    NOW MAYBE THEY WILL GET BACK 2 WORK.

  14. Can he please have a border again? Not Ukraine. Not Taiwan. Just our own border security

  15. Found a nut job they could agree on.

  16. One plus is heโ€™s under 80 years old

  17. This is a great news for America specially for the patriots. Thank you, Jesus Christ.

  18. YES!!!!!!! A REAL AMERICAN SPEAKER!!!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

  19. The people should vote since he's #3 to run our country!!!!!

  20. Ok, so back to business as usual – which means nothing gets done. Get ready for a gov't shutdown in 3 weeks.

  21. Proud of the House Republicans keeping up the fight! Never give up, never surrender!

  22. One monster movie to another monster movie. The republican party put out great horror monster movies.

  23. Msn/wgn's heroine dealers keep trying to epstine me to cover up there dope there the wiredos from the big brother program

  24. WOW! BREAKING NEWSโ€ฆ.Dems donโ€™t like new GOP Speaker Mike Johnson!
    Hereโ€™s a radical concept: If you can win back The House you can pick your own!!

  25. That this guy's name is Mike Johnson is such an insult to the guitarist and composer of Thinking Plague, also named Mike Johnson.

  26. All this fuss to elect some random guy ๐Ÿ˜‚

  27. Turning against ur own people while supplying terrorist wrong move u will lose

  28. He's going to quit his house speaker job, I wouldn't be surprised ๐Ÿคจ.

  29. Send that coward to the trenches… ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  30. Fantastic choice. The swamp and the deep state take a big hit on this one.
