With Government Shutdown Looming, Federal Workers Brace For The Worst - Washington Post

Rep. Jeff Van Drew told Fox Business this morning that he supports Mike Johnson for Speaker as an independent thinker, unless Demented Donald tells them not to. Rep. Drew, who's head is phallic shaped much like former Chairmen Trey Gowdy, claimed he is a very independent lawmaker within one powerful branch of government, but in the same breath renounced his independence and would do whatever trader Trump told him to do.
