He probably should read any history book about European monarchies...

Johnson is the court jester, nothing more

If they weren't on vacation, and did their jobs, then maybe the shutdown could end. Oh wait, that would mean that he would have to swear in a new Democratic member to the House, and Trump wouldn't want that.

Cannot stand that smug face! He lies better than the devil. He IS the devil. Get rid of that Keebler Elf-man!

Can't wait to hear his lame-a** excuse tomorrow. Is anybody keeping track? I don't think AI could keep up with these ever changing reasons for his complete failure as a human being.

Hold the line Democrats. Hold the line.

Never trust a MAGA Talking Snake.

Never trust a talking snake like Mike Johnson...

If the President were king, he wouldn't need Congress. Like he doesn't now. Thanks, Mikey. Idiot. youtu.be/JsSkOyAIOZY

Trump's government is open. He's got exactly what he wants: no congressional oversight. It's the people's government that is closed. By Congress.

Totally agree .. 🫩🫩

Grand Moff Tarkin: The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. I've just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away.

.. Problem is, their magic wand only turns stuff into shit.

Republicans like being out of session and home on vacation. They don’t really serve any oversight function anyway. They take orders from Trump and approve everything without question.

Quit talking about the Senate when you’ve neutered the House

We see the strings he’s pulling all you GOP congress people. He owns you, beta.

Shut up, you porn loving pixie.

It only takes nine republican votes to vacate the speaker of the house. I believe we have 13. If that’s what it takes to negotiate healthcare, let’s go for it.

Does he think that his party is ‘centrist’? Also, Americans voted these people in. Current state of play is the culmination of 250 years of the worst political experiment ever. I don’t see how you’re going to turn it around so you’re fucked.

Or potentially the Republican house could just come back to work. Nice you pay yourselves while you starve your constituents. Evildoers

one day very soon Johnson's lie-inducing flop sweat is going to make his glasses slide off his shiny red face like a bad ski jumper

If he was king, there would be no government.

OR, if Trump was king, he’d keep the government closed to prevent investigations into his crimes from going through, AND to remove obstacles from his efforts to consolidate even more power.

The neverending trainwreck.

King Charles I got along for quite a while without parliament. Go read a book in your ample spare time, Johnson!

Sounds like a threat.

Well it is open to those who court his favor like Argentina or for the projects that meet his whimsy like the ballroom.

Baked into that statement is the suggestion that Trump *should* be king so we can open up the government.

Every time I see Lil Mike, I always hope a 4x4 comes flying in and smacks that smug MF in the face

Keep talking, asshole.

Kings don’t have need for a government because they don’t govern, they rule, and do so by decree. 47 rules by executive order.

Trump said, “Pass the bill and he wouldn’t need Congress anymore.”

Little bitch boy seen here talking out of his ass as usual 🥴

We get 'em soon.....remember that corps command i wanted...McPherson's.

Good thing for Trump, we don’t HAVE a functioning Congress when they’re IN session. If the guard at the door lets everyone melee, there really isn’t a guard. Mike Johnson: the least effective speaker in history.

I did as Johnson said, read the text of the bill(arghh). It turns out the CR ends November 21, 2025. Would you make a deal if it’s set to expire in 30 days? Makes sense that insurance companies could send out notices to policy holders about their projected increases. Dems, need to be clear!

He’s delusional and lies as much as trump & the press Secretary

If there is no need for Congress will Johnson go away? Please! and he can take all the other unscrupulous opportunists with him.

😡

I agree, that the GOP is useless, they should all resign, let the folks that are actually willing to work get things done!

Why did Rome fall? The collapse of Rome was a gradual disintegration driven by factors such as barbarian invasions, (Trump shooting boat out water) political instability (Republican takeover), economic decline (Tariffs/Crypto, AI), and systemic social issues (Immigration/No Kings). Sounds familiar?

😳 this isn't even entertainable

It's OBVIOUS Mikey Johnson doesn't "give a shhh" about his low income families in Louisiana, bc he's a puppet ot trump, like trump is a puppet of putin!!! When putin gives trump "the order" to take care of America, He will!

He thinks that's funny????

Ah yes the king always demands parliament be open!

Maybe that is the idea behind it..NO CONGRESS NEEDED..HE DECIDES IT ALL..Are Americans not freaked out..yet?? Do away with Representation of the People..next is the Senate..Why have one...HE MAKES THE LAWS as he sees fits... Is it possible? Hell yes...

What a smug little christo-fascist liar.

The president literally accepted a crown yesterday from the South Korean government, and his spokeswoman says his "top priority" is to build a giant new ballroom. But, sure, he's just one of the common people who populate our great land.

He doesn't want to open the government.

That's something a reporter needs to point out to Mike I have no clue Johnson, it appears his cult doesn't allow him to watch TV or be online so he has no idea what's going on in the country.

Trump doesn't want it open, Republicans are the useful idiots he needed to shut it down

The jerk is circling once again.

What's all that brown stuff all over Mikey's face?

And Donald would be making sweet love to Mikes wife. 🤣

You're trying to portray President Trump as a king. You, coup supporter. The president cannot kill whomever Trump says is a "threat." That's you, dumbasses. You, the Nazis who kidnap immigrants like your king did to OUR ancestors. Again, that's you, dumbass..... the obvious truth.

New book idea: "If a mouse tells a lie"

Johnson is an obnoxious smirking little git.

Hey, Lil Mike, you will not be judged kindly by history or your lord

Also this. 👇🏽

They’re not even pretending anymore. The shutdown isn’t about spending. It’s about testing whether Congress still matters at all.

Right. Kings don’t need congress.

He’s talking himself out of a job.

Perhaps both Mike Johnson and Donald Trump should read a bit how kingdoms are ruled today? Most kingdoms are democratic, and the king has a very limited role. The rule is explicitly set up to avoid the kind of nonsense that now goes on in the US.

If the Speaker of the House were competent and doing his job the government would be open, the healthcare issue would be resolved and the Congress’ authority to set and direct Federal spending would be intact. None of these have happened. He is a total failure.

No Mikey, if Donnie was absolute king, there would be no functioning government. Just like now.

With the proposed cuts to aid (snap) will affect many.Democrats want to keep the budget as is. It's the cuts the Democrats are fighting against. Save the children first.

GOP has the House and Senate. Both are worthless

"I've just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away"

Dear Mike, You lying MF. Open the house, release the Epstein files. Do your job. Stop humiliating yourself. Fun fact - Lots of people AROUND NIXON went to jail. Hope this helps.

So he can make fast dangerous decisions.

Keep up, Mike.

If Trump was a King, his name would be Wayne.

#KingTrump has: Supreme Court, Presidency, House, Senate, murdering Military, Media, Secret Police, billions in bribes, a golden plane, a gilded office, a golden ballroom, unlimited golfing, and free reign to distribute our treasury $$ to any despot he wishes. He can’t give a crap about poor people.

#TheEpsteinShutdown #TheEpsteinSpeaker

Don the Con.

…and millions of people wouldn’t be able to afford healthcare.

Open the House and swear in that lady, you asshat.

So your excuse is...he's not technically a king, so even though he acts like one, it's not his fault? 🥴

So he's keeping the government shut down to prove that trump is not a king?

09/25: "Donald Trump has warned that he would not need Congress to impose tariffs on imports if he is reelected. "I'd rather get their support," the former president said Monday after claiming he could enact his 10 to 20 percent tax on goods without help from lawmakers on Capitol Hill...."

Yeah, right. If it were up to Trump, Congress wouldn't exist.

What did you say?

Ha ha ha. It’s so funny.

Watch the pig in his latest garble..... holy shit he has the world shaking its head and realizing its a perfect time to take advantage of the leadership vacuum & take over the U.S. ? we are not safe

That’s why I think the government will stay closed for awhile. The house and senate have given Trump everything he wants

As usual, Johnson gets an F grade, this time in history: Kings Charles I, Charles II, James II, and William IV all dissolved Parliament, Charles I repeatedly.

You know… when my sorority house closed, and when college dorms closed, we all had to leave. When offices and workplaces close, people aren’t getting paid… so why on earth is Trump still living in the White House and why is congress getting their paychecks?!

Give me a break pedo Mike. If you are constantly having to argue that the president isn't a king or acting like one, you're on the wrong side.

Remove maga Mike

What a swivel eyed scrote this guy is, his mother should hang her head in shame every time his name is mentioned! #EpsteinFiles

What a crock of 💩‼️ #RepubliKKKansAreAlwaysTheProblem #ReleaseTheEpstein-tRumpPedoFiles #🖕🏼GuardianOfPedophiles💩GOP🖕🏼

Republicans have a wand - it's called nuking the filibuster. If they don't want to negotiate to open the government they should use their "magic wand" and let people go back to work.

Has that pathetic little man been asked whether he agrees with Donald about that? The main objective was to pass the corporate tax cuts. That's done. As long as the House remains shut, the Epstein files remain unreleased.

or a few centrist republicans could negotiate with centrist democrats, like how did Budgets get passed without a 60 seat majority for the last 250 years?

IT'S A COUP!!!

Johnson took his 13-year-old daughter to a "Purity" Ball saying, "there are predators out there and there are prey. And what we want to do with our girls is to see what their motives are and try to steer clear of wolves like that." Apparently, he didn't really mean it for her or other girls.

Trump is keeping open only the things he wants open and funding only the things he wants funded - so.....

The fact is that Trump and his cronies think that any bit of that doesn’t directly benefit them is unnecessary.

Not funny, Mike. Open the House and stop bootlicking. Food and healthcare are being denied to citizens so Argentina can get $40 Billion. Explain that.

says the man who has nullified the second branch of govt. I guess they are just hanging on for the paychecks and benefits.

Mick the Weasel. Worst speaker ever

If Trump managed to become "king", Johnson would be relegated to Court Jester.

Is he refuting the protestors or is he laying out the GOP's terms?

"If the president wasn't on the Epstein's list, then the government would be open".

"Wave a magic wand" = "negotiate in good faith with Democrats"

Get to work, you incompetent, lazy republican shits. Fund healthcare and open the government.

Mike Johnson sure values his oath to the constitution. 🙄

Well the Constitution states that “HE” does! His ridiculous Executive Orders are based on LIES and must be rescinded!

Open if he wants, closed if he wants. 🚫 👑

Fucktard...

FU, YOU POS lying, phony Christian who knows he can reopen gov on his own just like, on his own, he can swear in a rep for a state with no representation. I AM SICK OF HIS NONSENSE

That assumes Trump wants to lead as king. He just wants the title.

Needing Congress or not is not up to that A-hole.

So Mikey is okay with doing away with Congress. I don't think Mikey is very bright.
