##### So ... "Who Is Mike Johnson?" - or "MAGA Mike" as he's now being called by his own #cult - as if that's a compliment ?!

I do hate to be the "bearer of the bad news", sky is falling etc. - on this 'place' where I know many who see my posts are not in the USA, and I apologize for my tendency to be US-centric in news headlines. In the context of a world rife with war, terror, climate disaster, etc. - and also with some good things happening! - things like mass shootings and my country's own Civil War and absurd government 'theater' in our House of Representatives....

So I end my immediate reactions to, and warnings about, the new "Speaker", #MAGAMikeJohnson with this.
#Truth - I've never been able to watch more than 3 minutes or so of #Fox & Fiends without getting nauseous &/or angry at the spread of #disinformation, tribalism, and #TrumpVirus hate... And yet maybe 1/3 of Americans are now partial to their alternate-reality.
Especially the 'false gods' of reality and morality, like Hannity and Carlson. But it's worth a watch to truly see what we now have.
 

Speaker Johnson Sits Down with Sean Hannity

 

Here is an Interview with Mike Johnson, on Fox of course ('exclusively'), a full sit-down history.
I'm posting it for anyone who is truly interesting on "who he is" beyond the many summary lists and articles.
Here he is in his comfort zone, reiterating his positions of budget cutting, G-d, and the wonders of the #GQP 'party'/ #cult

I'm a psychologist, so I view this like an intake interview. Hannity pitches softballs, advances his own 'truths' as if they're a given, to which Johnson whole-heartedly agrees and expands.... To me this is the most revealing portrait of an incoming House Speaker I've ever seen, and I came across this by accident, as I'd never intentionally watch Fox or Hannity... But.... Want to know exactly how MAGA Mike views the world, the country, and his mission? This fills in some blanks and reinforces the 'big picture'.
