Mini-Mike's Misery

February 7, 2024 (Vol. 18 No. 7) - You should be careful what you ask for - you may just get it. That's a hard-learned lesson Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is trying to cope with today. Mini-Mike suffered two embarrassing defeats yesterday inside of one fateful hour. First, the GOP-controlled House lost control and failed by four Republican votes to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. It's not that they had any justification to do so. The charges against him were, literally, Trumped-up. And when push came to shove, Mini-Mike's Sedition Caucus was unable to do what it said it would do. A few minutes later, Mini-Mike's Clown Caucus failed to deliver a much-needed aid package of Israel - something else the Speaker said he could deliver. The fact is that Mini-Mike is the weakest Speaker of House of Representatives since before the American Civil War. The Louisiana Loser, who originally wanted to be a firefighter like his heroic dad, has found that he is incapable of putting out fires of his own making. More importantly, he and his predecessor, the disgraced Kevin McCarthy, have shown the nation and the world how feckless and spineless the Republican Party has become. Although most Republicans on the Hill despise former President Bone Spurs, they are afraid to say or do anything that will upset him and the MAGA-maggots. This became painfully evident this week, when Republicans started backing away from a bipartisan immigration deal/foreign aid package within hours of the announcement of its details. They did so, despite the fact that it contains most of what these so-called conservatives have said they have wanted for more than a decade. And why the sudden reversal? Because former President Man Child said so. He wants the immigration chaos to continue so he can blame President Biden. Well, guess what? As of Sunday, February 5, 2024, the day the Republicans scuttled real-immigration reform, the Republicans own that issue. Every person who comes across our southern border illegally from that date is on them. The only accomplishment the Republicans have achieved during the last eight years is the removal of govern from government. With Mini-Mike in the House and Moscow Mitch McConnell in the Senate, American Democracy has ground to a halt. That's why this November we should remember that friends don't let friends vote Republican. Any party that puts politics above the national interest and adopts a mentally-challenged sex-offender, tax-cheat, seditionist as its standard bearer is unworthy of anyone's vote. That includes all spineless Republican representatives and senators who blindly follow the Orange Traitor as he tries to drive the country over the cliff. That's it for now. Fear the Turtle.
