Mike Johnson is attacking Adelita Grijalva for not "serving her constituents"... while literally refusing to swear her in.


Speaker Johnson on Rep. Grijalva: "In the meantime, instead of doing TikTok videos, she should be serving her constituents."

Are you kidding me? He's the one refusing to swear her in. These people are sick!

Mike Johnson is attacking Adelita Grijalva for not “serving her constituents”… while literally refusing to swear her in. The irony is working harder than Congress right now.

This is like padlocking the door to someone’s office and then complaining they’re not at work.

Stormy Daniels described the felon's penis as a tiny mushroom. Mike Johnson fits that description, the limp fruit of an itty-bitty fungi.

And that is true of the entire Republican/Trump CABAL.........

Either THAT, or in Colorado Super Max, filling every cell in the entire prison.......

It's really pathetic how low they are willing to stoop, esp. since all of them should know by now that ETTD, and that he will throw ANYONE under the bus without hesitation.

BTW, Mike? How much time does Dear Leader spend farting around on Social Media instead of "serving his subj ..... errr ..... constituents"?

A Tic Toc message showing she has so far been placed into a closet basically with little to no tech equipment and no passwords to even use the computers to work, until after swearing in. All because he will not allow her to do anything.
He needs some good ole Leviticus stone work for all the fucking sinning he is doing, in the name of HIS precious Jesus. And his God, trump.

Perhaps bring barraged with negative talking points might help weaken his stubborn no-compromise attitude.

I couldn’t help noticing how a group shot showed him about a head SHORTER than several Repubs he was standing with. Maybe that drives his efforts to “stand strong” (or whatever their dumb-shit talking points are, this week)? Just asking, cuz I’m always interested in the motivations.

Why else would he keep humiliating himself to protect Donald Trump? And almost no one in the GOP will stand up to him.

while our government that we rely on is shut down over his temper tantrums and the corporate media are bending over to give him a complete -pass on all of it.

I'd love to see protests wherever this asshole goes, peaceful groups yelling at him to do his job.

... but he knows that his audience is dumber that dirt, each with the attention span of a goldfish, and the moral compass of a rabid hyena, so it never occurs to them to say, "HEY! Wait a minute! How can she do her job if you won't swear her in so she can do her job, you slimy little asshole?!!?"
