“Speaker” Mike Johnson gives away just what an unhinged whack job he is

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Smile, Mike Johnson! You’re on camera! Mike Johnson, who is starting to make Kevin McCarthy actually look competent, has had a bit of a camera snafu. On Tuesday, Johnson was giving a speech. This speech was done at a Christian Nationalist party.

When he thinks the cameras are away, Mikey will play. In this frighteningly delusional speech, Johnson confided in the audience that he wasn’t really Mike Johnson He was Moses.

See, Johnson thought the cameras were far, far away. He thought the media had been banished. But Rolling Stone reported that “the Speaker was perhaps unaware that the event was being recorded.” Uh-oh.

So Johnson, smiling proudly, declared to the audience that he had spoken to God! This, he says, happened when the GOP House was fighting to find a Speaker. And God told Mikey that the Speaker would be him.

God, Mikey claimed, told him (confidentially, of course) that he, Mikey, was to be a “Moses-like figure” leading the country through a “red-sea moment.”

Wow! Moses is here, and we didn’t know! The creepy House leader clearly holds an extremely high opinion of himself. And I must say I’m a bit surprised that God, having the choice of so many MILLIONS of people, would select Mikey as his Moses. Evidently, God saw something in Mikey that he liked. Who knew!?

The truth is that the man is insane. God did not speak to him, and the only reason he’s Speaker at ALL, is because the Alt-right sees him as being wimpy enough not to put up much of a fight for their loony agenda. Definitely not God-like.
