“I’ll tell you a secret, since media is not here. Thank you for not allowing the media in. Look, I’m a Southern Baptist, I don’t wanna get too spooky on you, But, you know, the Lord speaks to your heart.
“The Lord began to wake me up, through this three-week process, in the middle of night to speak to me. The Lord impressed upon my heart a few weeks before this happened that something was going to occur.
“And the Lord very specifically told me in my prayers to prepare, but to wait. At the time, I assumed the Lord was going to choose a new Moses and thank you, Lord, you’re going to allow me to be Aaron to Moses.
“I had this sense that we were going to come to a Red Sea moment in our Republican conference and in the county at large. God had been speaking to me about this, and the Lord told me very clearly to prepare and be ready.
“Ultimately 13 people ran for the post. And the Lord kept telling me to, ‘Wait, wait, wait.’ So I waited, I waited. And then at the end the Lord said, ‘Now step forward.’
“Me? I’m supposed to be Aaron. ‘No,’ the Lord said, ‘Step forward.’” – Mike Johnson, speaking last night to the far-right National Association of Christian Lawmakers.
This man is a true believer. True believers do not compromise anything that goes against what they believe their religion tells them. This man is far more dangerous than Donald Trump, who is simply a grifter and was in it for himself. This guy thinks the gods have ordained him. Anybody who stands against him is going against God, in his own mind.
LITERAL blasphemy. Like actual, textbook blasphemy. And his sycophants lap it up.
In a more rational time, he’d be diagnosed with delusional psychosis and locked in a mental asylum. Today, he speaker of the House of Representatives.
He’s definitely a delusional psycho, but it turns out that isn’t a dealbreaker for today’s Republican party.
“Sometimes when I want to do something, I get really quiet, and in the stillness, I hear that voice inside of me that always says ‘Do whatever you want. It’s always justified.’”

In the 5th year of his reign, Pharaoh Amenhotep IV had an epiphany— the sun god, Aten, had chosen him as his personal vessel on earth, and he, of course, changed the state religion to Atenism, and devoted his life (and drove everybody crazy) talking about the goddamned Aten all the time. (The Aten, I hope is really clear, obviously doesn’t exist, since this is like 2500 years ago and it’s not like the sun god is exacting his revenge on our planet by cooking it.)
Anyway, that asshole was erased from history because he was a legendary pain in the ass, but at least he’d grown up in a world where everyone, from the day he was born, told him he was a special prince destined to rule the world.
Where Mike fucking Johnson gets off with that level of delusion, I cannot say.
There is nothing new under the sun
jesus…
I’m so sorry americans
Any other western country he’d be laughed out of existence. I know for a fact no british politician would live this down.
Let’s crucify him and he can truly be a symbol for The Lord
Random question: How come God always agrees with these loons in whatever kooky-ass shit they pray to Him about? Why does he never respond, “Lol, no, that’s dumb.”?
Because the people who think God told them “naw fam” usually don’t follow through with their insane ideas.
Because their religion only serves to validate their shitty ideas that they already had.
I sometimes hear a voice telling my heart that I’ll become Iron Man, but to wait. So, I’m waiting.
“When fanatics are on top there is no limit to oppression.” - H. L. Mencken
When you style yourself a modern-day Moses - but in reality you’re more like one of the possessed pigs Jesus drowned in the sea.
This is delusional …
Barry fucking Goldwater knew these kinds of people were trying to take over his party, and he for sure wasn’t a Democrat.
“Frankly these people frighten me. Politics demands compromise. These people believe they’re acting in the name of God, so they can’t and won’t compromise. I know, I’ve tried dealing with them.”.
Fuckin YIKES he’s like a villain from an A24 movie. The Main Character Syndrome vibes are spiking through the roof
God Chose Me To Be America’s “Moses”
I choose him to be under a butterfly net.
What exactly does he mean by being Moses and America’s “red sea moment?” Are the liberals, FBI, and the people prosecuting Trump the Egyptians? So, Johnson has been chosen to lead Republicans to safety, and kill the liberals, FBI, and prosecutors?
Fuck this imbecile.
This moron probably believes in Santa in addition to sky daddy. Complete waste of skin.
