Johnson's first act as Speaker.

Though I wish it had been Jim Jordan as Speaker, we could do a LOT worse than Mike Johnson.
I'm willing to give him a chance.

My Preacher is from Shreveport, LA. Moved to Hammond when he was super young.

But he called a pastor buddy of his who has pastored down there for 50 years.

He’s a personal friend of Mike Johnson.

Says he’s the real deal.

Our pastor lived in La for several years. He told me tonight he personally knows him (has his cell number), their kids are friends, etc. He too spoke highly of him tonight.

Pray for him that God will give him a backbone, and he'll take a stand for what is right.

Donalds was thought to lack the necessary experience

Don't they all? At least those in the running. Experience isn't everything. McCarthy is experienced enough. What experience gets you in DC is membership in the swamp, it seems.

I think I'm okay with that.

Who was the 1 Republican voting nay to that?

Experience gets you a Mitch McConnell, someone who can play the rules of the chamber and its traditions and arcana like a master to exercise control of his unruly and fractious brethren

I agree, but Johnson's perception is more mild mannered.

The more info that comes out on him, the more I think we will all like him.

Seemingly, we had to go through all the votes and other crap we did to get the pressure on to all of the Republicans to vote Johnson in.

All I know about Johnson comes from the "...owns Democrats" videos that show up in my Youtube feed. I really enjoyed the one where he "owned" Swallowwell. Nothing ever comes from all this owning, but it sure is entertaining.

Thomas Massie (R - Kentucky).
I have no idea what he was thinking.
Conservative Review rates him A 96%.
It makes no sense.
Here's what he says on Twitter

I just thought of something. So with someone I don’t hate as speaker, my thoughts drift to a what-if scenario.

What if, Joe and Kamala decided to sneak off in Joe’s Corvette to getsome…eh, we’ll just say “ice cream”. Joe makes a wrong turn and ends up in the middle of a pro-HAMAS protest mob blocking the streets. Things get violent, and, it’s not wishful thinking, but Joe Nd Kamala don’t make it.

Johnson gets sworn in as McCarthy seethes in bitter anger towards Matt Gaetz for depriving him of this fortuitous unearned presidency.

First day Johnson reverses all of Biden’s EO’s. The economy comes roaring back and people forget all about ClownWorld™.

Massie leans pretty libertarian. Short of his own words explaining it, I don’t know what explains it.

He’s in the freedom caucus. Israel certainly isn’t all blameless. But it doesn’t come anywhere close to justifying what HAMAS did.

Sounds like you are advocating assassination, albeit discretely. I have reported you to the secret service

May God have mercy on your soul

Might have missed it but where does Johnson stand? Looks like he is the next one they are voting on.

8%…
