I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

NSPM-7, and the associated executive orders are sure to lead to the suppression of “anti-fascist,” “anti-American,” “anti-capitalist,” and other speech deemed “treasonous” by the administration, and to the arrest and prosecution of citizens and noncitizens alike who are seen as the “enemy within.”

Trump’s War on Antifa Is Destined to Backfire

Professing love for Hitler is more than anti-Semitic—it’s antihuman. It’s a proud refusal to be bound by the most basic standard of goodness, a deliberate expression of contempt for everything decent. The texts degrade all of us.

It's obvious that James is helping out her family. Her sister lives there. Her sister's daughter and grandchildren live there. This happens when you are a family. This is a good thing. I am 67 and at some point, will need to live with my niece. This charge is actually perversely sick.
