Misguided religion, that's pretty rich. coming from little Moses Mike Grinder Johnson. Misguided religion, he says. This guy who is an insane Bible thumper. I mean, this guy is an absolute lunatic.

And you have to understand, people that live on the coast, people that live in other countries, People can be addicted to gambling. People can be addicted to drugs.

What are the implications of religious fanaticism in politics?

And then when the speaker's race happened and Kevin McCarthy, who's a dear friend of mine, was deposed, vacated from the chair. Oh, wow. Well, this is what the Lord may have been preparing us for. And so I was started praying more about that. And then The Lord began to wake me up through this three-week process we were in, in the middle of the night, and to speak to him. Now, at the time, I assumed the Lord is going to choose a new Moses. And, oh, thank you, the Lord. Lord, you're going to allow me to be Aaron to Moses. And so I worked to get Steve Scalise elected speaker. That didn't happen. And then Jim Jordan, who's like another big brother of mine. No, that didn't happen. And then Tom Emmer. And, you know, ultimately, 13 people ran for the post.

in the modern world is how you ascended to be speaker of the house and the opposition party isn't constantly saying um hello we have a problem here we have an insane cultist in the Speaker of the House position. They don't. They don't say a word about it. This has always bothered me.

How does Mike Johnson view foreign policy in relation to religion?

Jennifer Welch & Angie Sullivan 3:44
It will forever bother me. This is how they are able to go and kill little kids in Palestine. And now they're killing little kids in Iran because they think they're fighting a holy war because they're fucking crazy. They sit and criticize other people's religion because their religions put a mirror on their own. And this is just, this insanity is what is guiding American foreign policy right now.
Unknown 4:13
To your point, I have had a conversation last week with someone that said, well, people are telling me don't get a divorce because God told them her heart would change, your heart would change. So this is not uncommon in the circles that I grew up in, that I find myself in still today. When somebody says to you, God told me That is something that happens without batting an eyelash. So this is extremely normal to the people in the Bible Belt, ie it just happened to me where somebody looked at my face and said, Well, God told me that blah, blah, blah, blah.
