Email spam from Speaker Mike, always addressed to Friend, still dominates my inbox. It beats all the usual Camp Lejeune and GERMAN SEX RITUAL and Leaf Filter spam.
(Incidentally, Leaf Filter is a real company. I’ve seen their truck heading for a job.)
Now Friend is getting competing speakerspam from Hakeem Jeffries, the D competitor to Speaker Mike.
In earlier decades the House Speaker was genuinely important. Everyone knew Carl Albert and Everett Dirksen and Tom Foley. After Foley the whole congress descended into meaningless fakery and noise, so the speaker is no more significant than 18 INCH AFRICAN COCK or MCAFEE SUBSCRIPTION EXPIRED.
Are we seeing a vague hint of the British system? In parliament the majority PM jousts publicly with the minority Shadow PM. Jeffries is the Shadow.
