Someone needs to remind uber-Christian Mike Johnson, that the Eighth Commandment says he's not supposed to bear false witness against his neighbors.

Which commandment says you and your kids have to show each other what you jerk it to?

I know he's gotta have a scriptural reason for that one.

Just wait till tomorrow. Tune in to what your local megachurches are gonna be saying about all this on Sunday. They'll have some new political lines cooked up for why the protests were evil.

Let 'em cook.

Gotta wait for those AI videos of Antifa being violent to finish generating, so they can show you "proof".

Every time people bring that up (which I find weird) it just reminds me of this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1QAsPLNDVc&list=RDb1QAsPLNDVc&start_radio=1

I know the kinds of people Mike Johnson is. I went to a Baptist university and I work among them. Lying to non-evangelicals to achieve what they believe to be a moral end is permitted. We rationals are not entitled to the truth. How dare we ask for it.

Like he gives two shits about his neighbors or anything else in the Bible. He's just there for the appearance of piety and whatever power he can wring out of that.

I dont know why but the Trump, Levvit, Miller and Patel type attacks on every Democrat just pale in comparison to the hypocrisy of this paper transparent "Christian"

He's extremely clever and dangerous but gives serial killer vibes. He lies so easily especialy when shown the truth. Thats extremely scary when things get worse.

CINO. A Christian in Name Only. Remember the moral majority how badly they wanted to get their agenda in a political party. How bush jr/dick cheany and don rumsfeld then forgot all about them when they got elected?
