Mike Johnson's Crime

I watched Apeneck Greene denounce House Speaker Mike Johnson this morning as a traitor and so on. 

Johnson had set up things so that all the members of the House could vote on funding for Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, etc. He allowed the members to legislate. Four bills were passed by margins of about 3 to 1. 

The Democratic Party leaders cooperated.

The House, representing the United States,  finally got something done.  I did not like all of it, but that is often the case. 

I don't want to go overboard here. Johnson is a MAGA crank--but he saw his duty and did it. It will likely cost him his position. He has enraged the uninformed and brainless. But Johnson rose, used commonsense and did his job.
