TDS’ Lydic: For Mike Johnson, ‘the National Mandate Is to Make it Harder for One Woman to Poop’

EXCERPT:

LYDIC: "We’ve all heard the official story of the 2024 election. According to the pundits, the Democrats were obsessed with 'woke they/them politics' that didn’t connect with voters, while Republicans were talking about real issues that affect people day-to-day. So now Republicans are in charge of both houses of Congress, so let’s hear about the economy!"

REPORTER (voice-over): "On Capitol Hill, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson took aim at Democrat Sarah McBride, the first trans member of Congress. He barred transgender people from using the Capitol complex bathrooms that do not align with the sex assigned at birth."

LYDIC:" Hmm. Okay, forget about the economy. I guess the national mandate was making it harder for this one woman to poop at work. And by the way, who appointed Mike Johnson as the king of bathrooms?"
