Summary

Fox News reporter Chad Pergram challenged Speaker Mike Johnson for blaming Democrats for a potential government shutdown over funding bill opposition.

After Johnson claimed Democrats would be “responsible for every troop who misses a paycheck” if they reject his “clean CR,” Pergram pointed out this implies Republicans lack sufficient votes.

Johnson insisted “we’ll have the votes” despite reports that House Republicans plan to vote against the bill, claiming Democrats should “do the responsible thing.”

    If a human being can be that dishonest and still convince himself he’s a good person, maybe our species never had much of a chance.

    We’re not there, when he looks in the mirror. Evil politics takes a toll on all. From his perspective, "God watches us all’.

    Also, have faith, fellow mammal. We’re a work in progress, generationally.
