Mike Johnson melts down after House proxy vote failure exposes MAGA’s “pro-family” lie

Parliament Speaker Mike Johnson, R does not. Once he said that, he understood “I look at the world“All one must do is” capture and read the Bible. ” Donald TrumpHowever, Johnson has shown a lot of tolerance with the injustice that would anger Jesus the Bible: The spread of innocent men to torture prison In El Salvador, Ajdad accuses lies of being “fraud” your An excuse to remove social security verificationsAnd the condemnation of children He dies from preventive diseases such as HIV and measles. None of this was disturbed by Johnson, who supported Trump throughout the escalating sadism of the administration.

However, this week Johnson found one policy that he could not adhere to: allowing actors to serve their voters during the care of their children at the same time. Tuesday, Johnson tried to prevent the draft law of the two parties To allow members of the House of Representatives to vote by proxy, with the help of technology, when you are on parents ’vacation. Although the speaker has widespread control of his bills for voting, he could not stop this. Through nine Republicans the corridor to help Democrats Spoil the threshold to force the bill on the ground. After that, Johnson was very angry at canceling all Congress activity for this week and sent members to the home.

“Given the opportunity to actually support families, they run their backs,” MP Jim McGavran, M.,,,,, He said about the Republicans who support Johnson maneuver. A lot of response from the left has repeated this speech, noting that the Republicans claim that they are a “pro -family” party, but when it is given an opportunity to make life a little easier for new parents, Johnson and his gathering refuse. As many critics, Johnson’s voted himself by the proxy several times during the epidemic, but somehow decided that he was “unconstitutional” to give the same right to people who have duties of paternity and motherhood that physically withdraw them from Congress.

But it is not right to attribute this to hypocrisy. Johnson’s behavior It is perfectly in line with renewed republican enthusiasm To push women from public life and return to the kitchen. like David Graham wrote in the Atlantic Ocean in a recent article on how Republicans They implement the project 2025, and the party under Trump’s leadership was made “efforts to restore traditional families” priority. “In this vision, men are infiltrators and women from mothers,” he wrote, noting how the 2025 project makes different political ideas to force women to get out of the workplace to roles as wives at home.

“When I was pregnant, I could not fly at the end of my due date because he was unsafe,” MP Bretani Petersen, De Colu,, He said during the discussion about the proxy voting policy. Representative Anna Polina Luna, R Florida, a new mother who led republican support for anemia for the parents ’vacation, He announced that he has shown “The importance of obtaining a vote in Washington, DC”

Johnson himself voted by Proxy several times during the epidemic, but somehow decided that he was “unconstitutional” to give the same right to people who have duties of paternity and maternity that attracts them physically from Congress.

Of course, the reason most Republicans oppose politics is that they do not appreciate women’s voices in politics. Especially for the religious right, which most Republicans are in line with, the goal is to remove women from dirty actions to politics, so that they can focus their energies on caring for the home and stove. From this distinguished point, there is no reason to create accommodations for the parents of young children in Congress. Mothers are expected to stay at home and not work. Parents are expected to come to work, regardless of what is going on at home, where homework is left for women. One of the few Republicans supporting the bill, MP Wesley Hunt From Texas, I tried to plead that parents sometimes need at homeJohnson told that he regretted leaving a sick son in the hospital so that he could return to Congress to vote. But in the growing gender policy of the Republican Party, the Republican Party, the Republican Party is not seen, a sick child is not seen as a female action that men should not bother them.

This is part of the larger Republican party rebellion against the culture of work from the home that rose during the Covid-19 pandemic. It was one of Trump’s first actions when he returned to the White House To issue an executive order that compels federal workers to stop work from a distance It appears in the office, whether their jobs require this or not. He justified this by Familiar accused of workers remotely “does not work” however “Tennis” or “Golf Play”. Part of this is his usual psychological drop, as Trump spends a large amount of his week’s work week. Part of that was the 2025 project and the Illon Musk schedule to make the job miserable that people resigned. But Johnson’s anger is a reminder that there is another central Republican concern that work policies from home may help women’s equality.

During the peak of the epidemic, there was a reason to fear that working from the house was more harmful to women. burden Children’s care and homework declined in a way that is not commensurate with womenEspecially with married couples, as both spouses were trying to work from home to avoid the virus. But many of that was due to the inability to make children at school or day care. Now the ability to work remotely, at least At some time, it seems that it helps women out. Not only because it allows a woman the elasticity of dealing with household chores, which are still located mostly on their shoulders. In addition, with more men who work remotely, it can slowly build a culture as men pick up more homework. If the wife has to be in the office on that day, but her husband does not, it makes sense to bring children from school or dinner. This exactly the Republicans in the future are trying to prevent uncompromising insistence on a physical presence in the office to work on “counting”.

The leadership of Luna confirms the proxy voting bill how this ideological pressure is an increasingly paradise of republican policies. Women often try to reduce through the email to the aesthetic of the “midwife”, in the hope that the subject and influence may distract their attention from their ambition. The nation saw this more clearly through A letter of the strange response of the Senator Katy Brett, R-aa, last year. Brett spoke in the so -called “child’s voice” and sat in her kitchen, trying to look like a subject. The action did not succeed, as it collapsed under the contradictions that arise from playing the housewife during the test to be Trump’s companion. She is sitting in a safe seat in the Senate, but it is possible that Brett would farewell to her hopes of climbing the power ladder higher.

As I am He wrote about him in February, the leadership of the Republican Party In recent months, she put her eyes not to distribute governorate women, especially. Laws affect the state level that restricts reproductive rights in a manner that is not commensurate with women who attend the republics. The proposals to restrict voting rights would make married women more than single women, which will again harm the Republican women. There was a big boost to take leaders to the bottom of the wedge, where Maga’s effects now say that women should not be in leadership. Johnson’s anger is the same. Republican men really mean all this talk about strict sexual roles, and women in their party began to pay a personal price.
