@russvought My personal opinion is that the "officials" (Bible term for "deep state") made him an offer: "your family or your integrity".
We saw that done openly on live TV to Michigan election commioner who wouldn't certify because the "books didn't balance" (more votes counted than ballots issued). A menacing guy videoed in to say, "Certify this election. We know where your kids live and go to school."

I can understand those who are baffled that conservatives are entertaining removing Mike Johnson from being speaker in an election year with a small majority. I haven’t really weighed in bc I understand the pros and cons. But those watching from the outside need to understand the magnitude of what Johnson is doing. Funding Ukraine & acting as the third party payer of that endless war has rightfully become a mini Brexit for many of us. The neocon foreign policy establishment is determined to keep us in this role of bill payer & imperial leader. We want out, yesterday. It’s killing and exhausting our country. It’s leading to more war internationally. Mike Johnson made commitments not to fund Ukraine without securing the border. I wish he had said regardless, but it was a tangible/reasonable approach. He is now violating that promise bc global elites (David Cameron etc) and ruling class Republicans are in a complete freak out and guess what…he agrees with them! He is a neocon. That is what is happening. So Mike Johnson is now touching the stove and may light himself on fire. This is after being worse than utter mediocrity when it comes to the spending fights, refusing to use the power of the purse, and flipping his position on reforming FISA after a SCIF brief. I don’t know what is going to happen and if he goes down, I expect a complete meltdown from Con Inc. But Mike Johnson will be responsible for his own demise for choosing to govern against the clear wishes of the vast majority of grassroots conservatives who are educated on the issues. And that is no longer a survivable place to be for any GOP leader and thank God for it.
@randahl "Whataboutism" is a bad name. In this context it means "changing the subject" or more colorfully "squirrel!"
When someone make a universal claim, and you point out a counterexample - the words "what about ..." are typically used. E.g.
Alice: All vans are white
Bob: What about that van over there? It looks blue to me.
Alice: I really hate whataboutery!

ALL foreign aid should be eliminated. And AIPAC needs to register as a foreign lobby.
@Autumn That was a major piece of Rand Paul's platform as a candidate for President. He actually had withdrawal plan modeled after addiction recovery. He visited dependent nations, and they were all very receptive to recovery from addiction to American aid.
The Marshall Plan did not have unlimited aid over unlimited time. It was designed with the risk of addiction (for both dealer and customer) in mind.
@charliekirk11 The officials (Biblical term for Deep State) told him it was his family or his integrity. He chose the latter.

@Nazareno Newsweek says that video is AI generated and not actually Biden. In a different, apparently authentic, video of Biden, he says "Don't!"

He had a very large international social media audience.
I"ve been following him since Dec 2014. He was, to coin a phrase, "boots on the ground"

@Nazareno won't be long and Macron will start shitting BRICS... just sayin'
@freemo @mapto @avlcharlie "Lay not up for yourselves treasure on earth - where moth and rust doth corrupt, and thieves break through and steal, [and inflation doth devalue]."
Investing in people is also a thing:
For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light. I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings. Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
@freemo The Christian claim is not that atheists in particular can't be moral, but that NO ONE is good.
"They have all gone astray. They have all together become corrupt. There is no one that does good. Not even one."
Religion just washes the outside. The result is what Jesus called "whitewashed sepulchers, full of dead men's bones".
