Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson erupted after failing to block a bipartisan proxy voting bill allowing parental leave for lawmakers.
Despite once voting by proxy himself, Johnson called it “unconstitutional,” revealing GOP resistance to family-friendly policies.
Critics say this aligns with Trump-era efforts to push women out of public life, consistent with Project 2025’s goal of restoring “traditional families.”
Johnson’s move, including canceling House activity, exposed the contradiction in the GOP’s “pro-family” stance and highlighted deeper hostility to workplace flexibility and women’s equality.
Is this the guy that’s on Grindr?
Idk, it’s well documented that he has a weird “porn accountability” arrangement with his kid though. Meaning they monitor each other’s keystrokes to make sure the other’s not stroking their sin stick.
I was being a bit silly, but there was a rumor flying around about a week ago about how he’s on Grindr.
I don’t give it much actual credence - but it would not surprise me at all if we did learn it was true…
…This is documented?
Yep! It made the rounds back when he became Speaker of the House.
