Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.
Don’t believe the rhetoric blaming democrats for the government shutdown. Besides… it’s the republicans that have control of both House and Senate!

Duhhhhh….

Even Marjorie Taylor Greene admitted the GOP could end the shutdown anytime they wanted, they control all the branches of government. Broken clock’s right twice a day.
