Mike Johnson becomes the new Speaker of the House in the US Congress
Republican Congressman Mike Johnson from Louisiana has been chosen as the new Speaker of the House. He is a four-term representative known for his Christian conservative values and support for Donald Trump's legal challenges to the 2020 presidential election. While his victory is concerning due to his involvement in the efforts to overturn the election results, Johnson has also expressed a focus on budget reform and bipartisan debt reduction, which aligns with libertarian principles.
