Sounds more dangerous than Jordan. Repubs obviously wanted somebody who smelled better. And whose bull Schitt is more easily swallowed.

And, if still Speaker on Jan. 6(?), 2025, is likely to throw more spanners into the works of ratifying the results of the 2024 election once President Biden is reelected.

Congress changes hands on January 3, so the likelihood of this bible banging hayshaker being in a position to screw things up is unlikely. I don't think Speaker Jeffries will want to do any of that.

Thank you for this reminder. In the meantime, I just checked Johnson's Wikipedia bio and find that he was reelected in 2022, having run unopposed. In any case, it's essential in 2024 that Democrats retake the House and expand the number of Democratic members in the Senate.
