dweebish little factotum Holy Mike Johnson became House Speaker because he was standing in the right place — the corner of What About This Guy Street and Fine, Let’s Just Get It The Fuck Over With Avenue — at the right time.

nobody knew dick about the guy, except that he was some kind of god-mad religious fanatic. but now the facts are starting to leak out and and holy shit, there’s a lot going on that makes no fucking sense at all. first of all, how the fuck does Mike Johnson not have a bank account?

The Daily Beast reports that in financial disclosures dating back to 2016, the year he joined Congress, Johnson never reported having a savings or checking account in his name, his spouse’s name, or in the name of any of his children. In his latest filing, which covers last year, he doesn’t list a single asset either. Which, given that he made more than $200,000 last year—in addition to his wife’s salary—is more than a little odd.

think about that. Mike gets paid. what does he do with the check? does he go to a check-cashing place in one of DC’s skeevier neighborhoods?

Tiedrich is just getting started here. It's classic.... Then Tiedrich continues on the BS about Mike Johnson's black adopted son. Finishing up with his favortie targets, George Santos and Chump.

The cover comes later.

2. That was my first thought when I heard he didn't have a banking account. Check cashing place?

Do we see him standing in line every couple of weeks to get his paycheck cash.ed? His paycheck must be deposited somewhere. Too bad we don’t have a profession in this country whose job it is to search out thse facts

Tiedrich is on fire. I love it

4. I keep wondering if his "adopted" black son was more like a servant to this Louisiana boy, Mike

Have we seen his birth certificate, his name doesn’t even sound real

[WhiteTara]

6. He may have a porn addiction

and he took the child as......

[Walleye]

7. I won't even go that far, although it's possible. I just see his "son" as unpaid domestic help

[WhiteTara]

8. that's the ticket.

5. K&R -- must-read!

11. and what about...

Reality, that.

13. In all that, "fuckface" stands out as my go-to descriptor in casual conversation.

9. Tiedrich's use of the word "factotum" just makes me happy.

[Skittles]

10. I had to look that up!

noun
noun: factotum; plural noun: factotums

an employee who does all kinds of work.
"he was employed as the general factotum"

[RussellCattle]

12. I've thought that it was more derogatory, more like "he's just the go-fer" around here", useful, but not important.

But I looked it up and you're right..
