Mike comes from the 4th Congressional District. That's Shreveport and West Louisiana. 61% vote for Trump, both races.
Mike may be more conservative than Jordan. Certainly, a lot more than McCarthy. He's not a media hog and if he succeeds, it will be behind the scenes.

Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

Prediction: Israel will get what Israel wants.
Ukraine? Maybe not.

It’s not even appropriate to call her a colleague. She has no vote.
A normal member’s legislative assistant has more power.

I may be wrong, but I think she's been called the "ranking member" in committee meetings.
She served as a manager during the Trump impeachment.
If she can't vote and has no power, why is she even there other than to tick some checkboxes? Her insightful questioning of Taibbi and Schellenberger was an embarrassment.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Then the new speaker better have a coherent and workable plan to keep what will be left of Ukraine as a sovereign and independent state from Russia.
Elbows up!

Why bother?
Constitutions, in general, do not last very long. The mean lifespan across the world since 1789 is 17 years. Interpreted as the probability of survival at a certain age, the estimates show that one-half of constitutions are likely to be dead by age 18, and by age 50 only 19 percent will remain. Infant mortality is quite high—a large percentage, approximately 7 percent, do not even make it to their second birthday.

Folks,
Lake City is no longer selling ammunition to the public. CSG in the Czech Republic, just bought Vista's sporting division (that 's Remington ammo, CCI and Speer) for $1.9B. Production details remain spotty.
We only have two companies that make primers. Things have gotten so bad and so far behind, American companies are buying Russian primers to stay afloat.
That's how far behind we are on ammunition production.
Y'all want that 5.56 to go Israel or Ukraine? Take your pick...

Am sure from the new Speaker’s perspective the money and assistance must go to Israel.
Ukraine will just have to go back to being a truncated vassal state of Russia run by Kremlin Quislings.

Can't find the story at the moment, but Johnson, today, said that further aid to Ukraine is definitely ON the table.

I think it will be. But I've met Letlow, both the deceased husband and the wife. Mike and Letlow are very similar politically. Evangelical Christian. Very pro Israel.
What I'm saying, is that Ukraine may be funded, but it's going to take a backseat.
Perhaps the rest of NATO will step up some more?

Let's hope so. It would be a real shame if the GOP House became the political wing of the Tucker Carlson show.
