Summary

House Speaker Mike Johnson is looking to blow a $4 trillion hole in the deficit, cut back on Medicare and Medicaid, and dole out billions in tax breaks to a handful of ultra-rich Americans. He’s an easy target, but that doesn’t mean we should let him off the hook. The chaos within the ranks belies a bitter truth: this budget, if enacted, would be a moral and economic calamity. It would reshape our society in ways that are hard to imagine. And Mike Johnson is the kind of guy who probably knows, but doesn’t care. He might be a mumbly little nerd, but he’s earned his spot on the Enemies List. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
