Because he believes in protecting unborn life, traditional marriage, and the Second Amendment, Speaker Mike Johnson is a threat to Democrats.
Newly elected Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is an outspoken biblical Christian so it’s no surprise that he mentioned his faith shortly after his Republican colleagues elected him to lead the lower chamber.
“I believe that scripture, the Bible is very clear. That God is the one that raises up those in authority,” Johnson said during his inaugural speech as speaker. “He raised up each of you. All of us. And I believe that God has ordained and allowed each one of us to be brought here for this specific time.”
Because of his belief that God plays a divine role in the things that happen on Earth and because he has a track record of living according to the Bible, Johnson was smeared by corporate media and Democrats as a “Christian nationalist,” “extreme Christian fundamentalist,” and a “Folksy Champion of Christian Right.”
“Mike Johnson is America’s most blatantly Christian nationalist House speaker,” MSNBC complained.
Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin’s pinned post on X accused Johnson of attempting to usher in “theocracy” because he believes unborn babies deserve a chance at life, marriage is between a man and a woman, Americans have a Second Amendment right to defend themselves, and the 2020 election was marred with irregularities.
