House Speaker Mike Johnson has three flags hanging outside his office: the American flag, the Louisiana state flag, and a flag representing a movement that wants to turn the United States into a religious Christian nation.

Unfortunately, republicans will quite likely take the senate in the next cycle. With Manchin retiring, WV is essentially a republican lock. More broadly, Democrats are defending 20 seats to 11 for republicans, and the lowest hanging fruit for democratic pickups would be Rick Scott (FL) or Ted Cruz (TX), and as much as they both suck, that’s still going to be tough.
So, just to retain their slim margin, they’d have to defend all of their other seats and knock off one of those two.
Off-topic, but whenever I see someone mention Ted Cruz it reminds me of his website advertising his presidential campaign: https://www.tedcruzforhumanpresident.com/
It’s funny, you gotta check it out!
The US is fucked.
