Ep. 88  Is Speaker of the House Mike Johnson being blackmailed to do the bidding of the left? It certainly seems that way. His colleague, Marjorie Taylor Greene, explains.

 :bkmk:  After listening to MTG most are aware of some things that she has stated, but she makes an alarming point that Johnson basically isn't going to allow the GOP to do their job; he's side stepping them. They don't even know yet what is in the bill and finding out from the media.  Something is rotten in Denmark.

I question though then, why he received a unanimous vote to become Speaker? I had never even heard of him till McCarthy was ousted.

Correct.  He's just becoming enamored with the power that a Speaker wields...case in point:

   Who benefits the most from this current GOP spectacle, who landed this hit peice?  That is what you should be asking yourselves.

I don't think he needs to be blackmailed, and he's probably not bright enough to take bribes undetected.  He just believes what the press tells him.
