    Mike Johnson had to get approval from his AIPAC handler before mocking Americans losing their Medicaid. Meanwhile, US taxpayers still fund free healthcare for Israel.

    Mike Johnson doesnt even have a real bank account. His entire job is to suck Trump’s dick. You do something FUCKING constructive like you are supposed to! ‘Bout had it with these fucking congressional princesses doing jack shit and then thinking we owe them. I’m fucken losin’ it over here watching every one of these cunts just rape my country.

    I’m sure all that arrogance will keep him safe from the people he’s about to disenfranchise. The people who have illnesses, diseases, injuries, and chronic pain that make their lives almost not worth living, but thank goodness they have medical care to assuage the suffering just enough. I’m sure those people won’t have an axe to grind if someone decided to deride them mercilessly as unproductive societal waste as they’re just trying to get through the day without treatment or medication.

    This man purports to follow Jesus teachings and honor the bible - by mocking and terrorizing the poor in order to enrich himself. Either he is lying and has no religious affiliation - or he is so self deluded he thinks what he is doing is ok. Either way - total hypocrite.

    I just want to check if within those millions of Americans there is one called “John Mikeson”, to be able to say with certainty that :

    Mike Johnson is Mocking John Mikeson

    Such a fine title would make Medicaid the least of people’s worries hah

    I saw the bit about how the 20 hours a week can be work or volunteering, and my first thought was to figure out how to start a charity that needs people to volunteer from home doing something fairly easy but still useful. I’ll have to ponder that some. It’ll be a project to start working on. (Suggestions are welcome!)

        That is an option, but I would want to make sure that people with limited English fluency or education wouldn’t be excluded.

      The first thing I thought was something like helping sort/categorize photos/documents/etc. for libraries or museums or something. But then that made me think of all the existing citizen science efforts out there where they have people categorize images of galaxies and stars and stuff, or run protein-folding simulations on their home computers, etc. I wonder if those kinds of existing things could be spun as “volunteer work”.
