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.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

   Who benefits the most from this current GOP spectacle, who landed this hit peice?  That is what you should be asking yourselves.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

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.
