Resurfaced comments in which new House Speaker Mike Johnson talked about how he and his son monitor each other’s online activity using “accountability software” have raised questions about national security.
Johnson, a Republican who was first elected to Congress in 2016, spoke in 2022 about how he installed software called Covenant Eyes on his devices during a panel called “War on Technology” at Cypress Baptist Church in Benton, Louisiana, Rolling Stone reported.
According to a clip first posted on X, formerly Twitter, by a user called Receipt Maven, Johnson spoke about how the subscription-based service helps people abstain from internet porn and “objectionable” websites.
This whole thing is just creepy as hell. This guy has some serious and disturbing psychological issues.
And he’s a fucking politician. People actually decided that they wanted him to represent them in government.
More all the time, I feel like I’ve somehow been trapped on an alien planet, surrounded by a bizarre race of inexplicably stupid lunatics.
Not just a “politician” but voted on by his party to be the speaker of the house of representatives.
Unanimously. This is their guy.
Just scratch “alien” and that about sums it up.
