This is on point. I'm Meganichakra Bardi.

It is my great privilege to introduce the 45th speaker of the House.

My dear friend, Mike Johnson, the speaker. On October 25th, after what seemed like never-ending internessing

chaos within the Republican Caucus, Mike Johnson emerged as the 56th speaker of the US House of Representatives.

At age 51, he is one of the youngest and by some measures least experienced House Speaker's ever.

But that does not mean that Johnson doesn't have a mission.

In fact, he does.

And he has the motivation to see that mission through.

Here he is speaking in front of Congress

prior to being sworn in as speaker.

I don't believe there are any coincidences

in a matter like this.

I believe that scripture, the Bible is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority.

He raised up each of you, all of us.

And I believe that God has ordained and allowed each one of us to be brought here for this

specific moment in this time.

This is my belief.

I believe that each one of us has a huge responsibility today to use the gifts that God has

given us to serve the extraordinary people of this great country and they deserve it.

And to ensure that our republic remains standing as the great beacon of light and hope and freedom

and a world that desperately needs it.

Johnson was first elected to the House by Louisiana's fourth congressional district in 2016, just seven years ago.
