This was a badly handled attempt to grab a hot story without taking enough time to be sure about it. Had I listened to it long enough before posting, I wouldn'ta done it. So sorry.

Thank you.

1. WTF? No one is reporting this on cable or broadcast tv... ???????????????

[mahatmakanejeeves]

6. But it's in ALL-CAPS. It has to be true. NT

2. I don't believe it. When I google Mike Johnson no mention of it. mike johnson did remove turner from the house

intelligence committee though.

3. Judi, Mike TURNER (not Johnson) was removed last week from Intel chairman. I think this is confused.

??????????????

11. Yeah...I think that's right. The vote for speaker came and went with no changes.

4. this source has some crazy titles for their videos

click bait

[FSogol]

5. Holy Clickbait, Batman!

7. Don't think this is correct. Has something to do with another GOPer and was some time ago.

8. 😩

I’m melting

You have to skip to the end 1:24 or so to get the point. … 😐

10. Per the Slavic gentleman on the podcast:

I don't care about official titles:

Musk is President Elect
Trump is the Speaker

MAGA mike is a puppet

[Attilatheblond]

12. Ummm, 435 members is the House. 160 wouldn't be enought to fire his ass unless most members are at brunch

What is this about?

[Lovie777]

13. 160 is not enough....

Mike Turner was fired by MIke Johnson.

14. BS OUTFIT

I learned a long time ago to totally ignore any of the vids from this outfit known as “Progressive Politics Network”. They are misleading and dishonest in their so- called reports. They usually have the large red field on their bated site so it’s easy to recognize them and avoid being tempted to click on.

15. You're so right. I posted it in total ignorance, before I had heard much beyond the start.

Deeply surprised and sorry.

The host took great liberties with his manner of introducing his "take" on what has happened with the current Speaker, and the fact Trump is actually controlling his behavior from now on, or he'll be gone.

Thank you, so much, for your civilized and thoughtful post. It's most appreciated.
