Republicans have at long last elected a House speaker: Representative Mike Johnson, a fundamentalist Christian who was also once called a key “architect” in Congress’s efforts to overthrow the 2020 election.

Johnson finally secured the speaker’s gavel after Republican infighting left the House without a speaker for 22 days. He secured 220 votes.

Johnson is a four-term congressman representing Louisiana. His win also represents the rise of the MAGA front in the Republican Party. Earlier Wednesday morning, Donald Trump endorsed Johnson as House speaker—after quickly killing Mike Emmer’s nomination the day before.

Evangelicals are sleeping with the devil to do the lords work

Didn't Jesus specifically teach against the concept of being an evangelical?

Edited to make more sense

Pretty much.

Matthew 6:6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Or just spray it all over Facebook

I wonder, was that added because early christian "cultists" were persecuted pretty badly? Maybe similar to why there is stuff about pork, because of trichinosis
