Mike Johnson's report card that assesses how hard one shills for Ukraine gave him the lowest grade possible.
On the surface, this seems like a huge upgrade compared to the Ukraine flag wearing McCarthy who satiated Zelensky at every possible turn.
Johnson has been given Trump's approval and he was an integral part in questioning the 2020 election.
Overall, this is a win where we desperately needed something to be encouraged by.
And I, for one, will take it.

Johnson, the city's first African-American fire instructor and captain, who died in the line of duty.[11] Johnson's father was also critically burned and disabled in the line of duty during the same fire.[12]"
"Johnson's maternal grandfather, Nunzio Messina, was from Italy, and he has some French and Irish ancestry on his father's side of the family.[14]"

Johnson questions McKenzie, Austin and Milley on who was to blame of the failure of withdrawal of Afghanistan?. Except for McKenzie the others wouldn’t admit who’s fault it was.
And Milley says re: Joe, I cannot share the plans I discuss with the President. Hmm I guess sharing with China is fine, but not the House Members.

from Wikipedia:
"Johnson is a young earth creationist and believes that the Earth was created approximately between 6,000 and 10,000 years ago.[75]
He is a writer for Answers in Genesis and has represented them in lawsuits.[74][75][76] In 2014, he supported government-provided tax breaks for their Ark Encounter theme park in Kentucky, saying:[75][76]
If his proposition were followed, the commonwealth [of Kentucky] would be legally liable for blatantly unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination. Phelps' preference - that religious groups should be denied equal access to tax incentive programs and also forced to hire people who openly disagree with their main beliefs - is not only unfair, it is clearly unlawful. "
Johnson: Let the enemies of freedom around the world hear us loud and clear; the people's house is back in business….I genuinely believe in my heart that the best days of America are still ahead of us.
Johnson: We have a catastrophe at our southern border, the senate and the White House can no longer ignore the problem. From Texas to New York, wave after wave of illegal migrants are stressing our communities to their breaking point. We know that our streets are being flooded with Fentanyl, and all of our communities children, and even adults, are dying from it. The status quo is unacceptable, inaction is unacceptable, and we must come together and address the broken border. We have to do it.
[standing ovation from republicans; silence from democrats]
Just what we need
Johnson: I have made a commitment to my colleagues here, that this speaker's office is going to be known for decentralizing the power here.
