A man allegedly murdered his wife and made it look like a suicide. Matheau Moore, 51, stands trial in Delaware County, Ohio. Wife Emily Noble, 52, was last seen on her birthday: May 24, 2020. She was reported missing the next day. Her body turned up in tragic and grisly fashion the following Sept. 16. She was found hanging from a tree in a wooded area near her home. There was reportedly a 20-inch USB cord around her neck. There were multiple injuries to her head and neck. Authorities determined that this was homicide. Noble was so badly decomposed authorities had to use dental records to identify her. Prosecutors argue Moore killed her and staged the hanging. He faces charges of murder and felonious assault. Moore’s previous wife Lisa Pedersen told WBNS in a June 2021 report that he once choked her when she was pregnant with their first son. It was New Year’s Day 2001, she said. They had been married three months. “He came over, and he did, for some reason, he ended up, yeah, putting his hands around my neck,” she reportedly said. “And he started to choke me.” It was the only time he put a hand on her, and they kept in touch throughout the years, Pedersen said. Though they maintained contact, she noted that he, contrary to contemporaneous media reports, claimed to be participating in the search for Noble. “Once the details were made clear to me, I started to lean toward his guilt,” she said. Both of their sons are now dead, according to WBNS. One of the children reportedly died at 17 by hanging in a park the summer before Noble’s disappearance.

The French in Michigan and their presence in the upper Great Lakes region from 1534 to 1760 saw several critical milestones in the area’s exploration, fur trade, and military conquest. The French were drawn to the region by the abundant natural resources, including the vast fur-bearing animal populations, and sought to establish a dominant presence there. The first significant milestone was the arrival of Jacques Cartier in 1534, who explored the St. Lawrence River and claimed the area for France. This was followed by establishing French trading posts and settlements along the St. Lawrence River and Great Lakes, including the creation of Fort de Buade in 1654 near present-day St. Ignace, Michigan. The French also made significant efforts to explore the region, including the expeditions of French missionaries such as Father Jacques Marquette and Louis Hennepin. These explorers helped increase knowledge of the region’s geography, flora, and fauna and established meaningful relationships with Native American tribes, including the Huron, Ottawa, and Ojibwe. However, the French presence in the region was not without conflict. The competition for control of the fur trade and territory between the French and the British was a significant factor in the military conflicts throughout the 17th and 18th centuries, including the Seven Years’ War. Despite the efforts of the French military, the Articles of Capitulation in 1760 saw the surrender of French forts in the region, including Fort Michilimackinac, to the British. The French first stepped foot in what is now Michigan at Sault Ste. Marie in 1668. French explorer Father Jacques Marquette and fur trader Louis Jolliet arrived in the area as part of their expedition to explore the Mississippi River and establish a French presence in the region. Sault Ste. Marie became a center of the fur trade in the Great Lakes region and a hub for French exploration and settlement in the area. René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, was a French explorer and fur trader who played a significant role in the exploration and colonization of North America in the late 17th century. He is best known for expediting the Great Lakes region and the Mississippi River Valley. La Salle’s first expedition was in 1669 when he led an exploratory mission to the Great Lakes region. During this expedition, La Salle claimed the region for France and named it “La Louisiane.” He also discovered the Mississippi River and sailed to the Gulf of Mexico, opening up the region for further exploration and settlement. In 1679, La Salle led another expedition to establish a French settlement at the mouth of the Mississippi River. He founded the settlement of Fort Saint Louis, which was the first European settlement in the Mississippi River Valley. However, the settlement was short-lived, and La Salle was killed by one of his own men in 1687. Despite his untimely death, La Salle’s expeditions and discoveries had a major impact on the exploration and colonization of North America.

Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon and is one of the most iconic events in the history of space exploration. Here are some key facts about the Apollo 11 mission: Mission Objectives: Apollo 11 was launched by NASA on July 16, 1969, with the primary objective of landing astronauts on the Moon and returning them safely to Earth. The mission aimed to demonstrate the capabilities required for lunar exploration. Crew: The Apollo 11 crew consisted of three astronauts: Neil Armstrong: Mission Commander Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin: Lunar Module Pilot Michael Collins: Command Module Pilot Lunar Module: The Lunar Module, named "Eagle," separated from the Command Module in lunar orbit. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin descended to the lunar surface in the Lunar Module while Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit. Lunar Landing: On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin piloted the Lunar Module to a successful landing on the Moon's surface in the region known as the Sea of Tranquility. First Steps on the Moon: On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong became the first human to set foot on the Moon. He famously declared, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Activities on the Moon: Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin conducted various experiments, collected samples of lunar soil and rocks, and planted the American flag on the Moon's surface. They spent about two and a half hours outside the Lunar Module. Return to Earth: After spending approximately 21 hours on the lunar surface, the Lunar Module's ascent stage rejoined the Command Module in lunar orbit. The astronauts then began their journey back to Earth. Splashdown: Apollo 11 successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on July 24, 1969. The crew was recovered by the USS Hornet. Historic Achievement: Apollo 11 was a historic achievement and a major milestone in the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union. It demonstrated American technological prowess and fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's goal of landing a man on the Moon before the end of the decade. Scientific Contributions: The mission brought back valuable scientific data, including lunar rock and soil samples, which provided insights into the Moon's history and the solar system's formation. Apollo 11's success marked the beginning of a series of lunar missions and was a significant moment in human history. It remains an iconic event, with Neil Armstrong's first step on the Moon being one of the most memorable moments in the 20th century.

At approximately 21:00 local time on Monday, November 20, 2023, a destructive landslide, produced by intense rainfall, occurred roughly 18 km (11 miles) outside Wrangell, Alaska, on the Zimovia Highway. This event resulted in the deaths of at least three individuals, including a child, with three more reported missing. Active rescue efforts continue in the face of the landslide, which extended over approximately 152 meters (500 feet), destroying three homes and prompting urgent evacuations in the area. Following the landslide, Alaska State Troopers and local search teams launched a comprehensive rescue operation but concerns about the safety of the rescuers and the unstable conditions led to a temporary suspension of the search efforts. However, these efforts were soon resumed. On Tuesday, amidst the ongoing search, a woman was found alive and immediately transported to a hospital. The same day, two adult casualties were discovered by a drone operator and subsequently recovered from the debris. As of Tuesday night (local time), the focused search for two children and one adult remains underway, with teams, including canine units, combing through the debris, steadfast in their mission to find the missing. The landslide has prompted a significant response from local and state authorities. Wrangell Borough Manager Mason Villarma reported that 20 to 30 people were evacuated or asked to leave the area for their safety. Accommodations for those displaced were arranged at the Stikine Inn and Sourdough Lodge. In response to the disaster’s scale, Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy declared a state of emergency in Wrangell. The Department of Public Safety has advised against entering the slide area, emphasizing the ongoing risk of additional landslides. The Zimovia Highway has been closed from the 6-Mile marker onward, affecting local access and leaving the community beyond the landslide cut-off. There is currently no timeline for when these residents may return to their homes. The landslide also disrupted power supply, leaving approximately 75 homes without electricity between the 9 Mile marker and the end of Wrangell’s highway system. Wrangell Public Schools have been closed, but Evergreen Elementary School will offer support services.

The FBI is investigating a vehicle explosion that occurred Wednesday at the Rainbow Bridge border crossing between the U.S. and Canada. The vehicle was heading from the U.S. to Canada and was going in the direction of the border officer building, sources told Fox News' Alexis McAdams. All bridges were closed in the area, and all government buildings were evacuated, according to sources. Sources tell Fox News' Alexis McAdams that the incident was being treated as a possible attack. Fox News' Alexis McAdams was told by sources that the explosion was so big and fierce, that authorities first thought it was a terrorist attack.

Elon Musk on Monday made good on his promise to sue Media Matters, filing a federal lawsuit that accuses the left-leaning watchdog group and one of its reporters of doctoring images in an article that showed ads for major corporations next to posts depicting hate speech on X, Musk’s social media platform formerly known as Twitter. In a complaint filed in a Texas federal court, lawyers for X argued that Media Matters “knowingly and maliciously manufactured side-by-side images depicting advertisers’ posts” on X. The lawsuit alleges that the images and the media promotion of that research were done with the intention “to drive advertisers from the platform and destroy” X, citing “a blatant smear campaign” against the company over the last year. Musk’s lawsuit is the latest of his battles with regulators, advocates and advertisers, which have pointed to a rise in hate speech on the platform since he bought it last October and hollowed out its content moderation staff. The tech billionaire also sued the Center for Countering Digital Hate in August after it reported a rise in hate speech on the platform. Musk also threatened to sue the Anti-Defamation League a month later amid an ad slump for which he placed blamed on the group’s “pressure on advertisers.” The lawsuit on Monday comes as Musk and X, facing specific allegations that they endorsed and promoted antisemitic content on the platform, try to quell a recent exodus of advertisers. The complaint contends that an internal investigation found that Media Matters used accounts for its research that bypassed “X’s ad filter for new users” and followed only accounts “known to produce extreme, fringe content” and “accounts owned by X’s big-name advertisers.” The complaint further alleges that Media Matters “resorted to endlessly scrolling and refreshing its unrepresentative, hand-selected feed … until it finally received pages containing the result it wanted: controversial content next to X’s largest advertisers’ paid posts.” Shortly after Musk filed his lawsuit, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who has in the past aligned himself with the tech mogul, announced that his office would open a probe into “potential fraudulent activity” by Media Matters. In a statement after the lawsuit, Carusone said that “this is a frivolous lawsuit meant to bully X’s critics into silence. Media Matters stands behind its reporting and looks forward to winning in court.” Musk — the richest person in the world and the owner of Tesla and SpaceX — pledged over the weekend to file a “thermonuclear lawsuit” against Media Matters, a self-described “progressive research and information center” that says it monitors “conservative disinformation,” in response to the advertising boycott on X. Media Matters published a report last week alleging that X had run ads for major companies next to neo-Nazi posts, prompting companies like Apple, IBM and Disney to pull advertising from the site. That research challenged earlier claims from X CEO Linda Yaccarino, who had said that brands are now “protected from the risk of being next to” potentially toxic content on the platform. The battle with Media Matters also comes as Musk — the owner of Tesla and SpaceX, who bought Twitter last year and then rebranded it — has come under fire for what some have characterized as tolerating and, at times, encouraging antisemitism on the social media platform. Musk himself appeared to express his support for an antisemitic tweet as “the actual truth” of what Jewish people were doing amid Israel’s war against the Palestinian militant group Hamas. The White House starkly condemned the post, and the tweet has been seen as a precipitating factor in the advertising exodus the company has experienced over the last few days.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Federal Communications Commission has enacted new rules intended to eliminate discrimination in access to internet services, a move which regulators are calling the first major U.S. digital civil rights policy. The rules package, which the commission ratified on Wednesday, would empower the agency to review and investigate instances of discrimination by broadband providers to different communities based on income, race, ethnicity and other protected classes. The order also provides a framework for the FCC to crack down a range of digital inequities including the disparities in the investment of services for different neighborhoods, as well as the “digital divide,” a term experts use to describe the complete lack of internet access many communities experience due to regional or socioeconomic inequality. FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said that Congress required the agency to adopt rules addressing digital discrimination, through bipartisan infrastructure legislation passed at the start of the Biden administration.

SpaceX Starship flight tests SpaceX Starship flight tests include 10 launches of prototypes of the Starship spacecraft on suborbital and low-altitude tests, and one orbital trajectory flight of the entire Starship launch vehicle with the Starship prototype atop the Super Heavy first-stage booster.[a][1][2][3][4][5] Designed and operated by private manufacturer SpaceX, the flown prototypes of Starship so far are Starhopper, SN5, SN6, SN8, SN9, SN10, SN11, SN15 and Ship 24 stacked with Booster 7.[6][7] Starship is planned to be a fully-reusable two-stage super heavy-lift launch vehicle.[8] Unusual for previous launch vehicle and spacecraft designs, the upper stage of Starship is intended to function both as a second stage to reach orbital velocity on launches from Earth, and also eventually[9] be used in outer space as an on-orbit long-duration spacecraft. It is being designed to take people to Mars and beyond into the Solar System.[10] Starship test flights Starship prototype tests can generally be classified into three main types. In proof pressure tests, the vehicle's tanks are pressurized with either gases or liquids to test their strength—sometimes deliberately until they burst. The vehicle then performs mission rehearsals, with or without fuel, to check the vehicle and ground infrastructure. Before a test flight, SpaceX loads the vehicle prototype with propellant and briefly fires its engines in a static fire test.[11] Alternatively, the engines' turbopump spinning can be tested without firing the engines, referred to as a spin prime test.[12] Following successful testing, uncrewed flight tests and launches may take place. During a suborbital launch, Starship prototypes fly to a high altitude and then descend, landing either near the launch site or in the sea. During an orbital launch, Starship performs procedures as described in its mission profile.[11]: 19–22  The tests, flights, and launches of the Starship rocket have received significant media coverage due to SpaceX's relatively open approach to allowing outsiders to view the facilities.[13]

The second flight test of a fully integrated Starship is set to launch Friday, November 17. A two-hour launch window opens at 7:00 a.m. CT. A live webcast of the flight test will begin about 35 minutes before liftoff, which you can watch here and on X @SpaceX. As is the case with all developmental testing, the schedule is dynamic and likely to change, so be sure to stay tuned to our X account for updates. Starship’s first flight test provided numerous lessons learned that directly contributed to several upgrades to both the vehicle and ground infrastructure to improve the probability of success on future flights. The second flight test will debut a hot-stage separation system and a new electronic Thrust Vector Control (TVC) system for Super Heavy Raptor engines, in addition to reinforcements to the pad foundation and a water-cooled steel flame deflector, among many other enhancements. This rapid iterative development approach has been the basis for all of SpaceX’s major innovative advancements, including Falcon, Dragon, and Starlink. Recursive improvement is essential as we work to build a fully reusable transportation system capable of carrying both crew and cargo to Earth orbit, help humanity return to the Moon, and ultimately travel to Mars and beyond.

On Sunday, an Alaska Airlines flight made an unexpected diversion to Portland International Airport in Oregon following an incident involving an off-duty Alaska pilot attempting to interfere with the aircraft’s engines, officials said. Horizon Air was responsible for the operation of Alaska Airlines Flight 2059, which was en route from Everett, Washington, to San Francisco before being diverted and landing safely. It’s worth noting that pilots frequently utilize jump seats in the cockpit for their commuting needs. According to Alaska Airlines, “The jump seat occupant unsuccessfully attempted to disrupt the operation of the engines. The Horizon Captain and First Officer quickly responded, engine power was not lost, and the crew secured the aircraft without incident.” A recorded communication from LiveATC seemed to suggest that one of the flight’s pilots reported the individual’s attempt to shut down the engines. The recording stated, “We’ve got the guy who tried to shut the engines down out of the cockpit and he doesn’t sound like he’s causing any issue in the back now. Other than that we want law enforcement as soon as we get on the ground and parked.” The flight’s pilot successfully landed the plane in Portland without any reported injuries, as confirmed by Kieran Ramsey, the FBI’s special agent in charge in Portland. Ramsey assured the traveling public that there was no ongoing threat related to this incident. The off-duty pilot involved, 44-year-old Joseph David Emerson, is now in custody and faces charges including 83 counts of attempted murder, 83 counts of reckless endangerment, and endangering an aircraft, according to records from the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office. The pilots’ union refrained from immediate comment on the situation.

The College Football Playoff rankings are finally here, granting teams a benchmark on where they stand in terms of competing for a national championship. Only five unbeatens remain in the Power Five — Georgia, Michigan, Ohio State, Florida State and Washington — and will likely find themselves near the top of the rankings, above one-loss teams such as Oregon, Texas, Alabama and Oklahoma. The Crimson Tide (7-1, 5-0 SEC) can earn a massive resume booster as it takes on LSU (6-2, 4-1) at home on in Week 10. Georgia (8-0, 5-0) also has a tough stretch to prove its status as a top team against Missouri (7-1, 3-1), Ole Miss and (7-1, 3-1) and Tennessee (6-2, 3-2) in consecutive weeks. Both the Tigers and Rebels still have a path to the playoff. Heading into Week 10 of the college football season, plenty of programs are still alive in the playoff chase, and there's almost certain to be chaos at the finish.

On Thursday, Detroit made history — and not in a good way. The heart of the U.S. auto industry and home to the Detroit Tigers, Eminem and the White Stripes, Motown, and (maybe) Jimmy Hoffa's body became the largest city ever to file for bankruptcy. In many ways, this financial crisis is 60 years in the making. As the Motor City faces an uncertain future, here's a look back at some key dates in the long, storied past of one of America's great cities: July 24, 1701 Antoine de La Mothe Cadillac establishes a French settlement, Fort Ponchartrain du Détroit (the strait), along with 100 French soldiers and an equal number of Algonquins. 1760 Britain wins the city from the French. 1796 U.S. forces capture Detroit from the British. Feb. 1, 1802 Detroit becomes a chartered city, covering about 20 acres. It is incorporated as a city of Michigan territory in 1806, unincorporated in 1809, then reincorporated in 1815, this time for good. The population in 1815 is about 850. 1827 Detroit adopts its forward-looking city motto: Speramus Meliora; Resurget Cineribus (We hope for better days; it shall rise from the ashes). 1850 Bernhard Stroh opens Stroh Brewery Company. Over the years, Stroh's acquires several rival brands, including Schaefer, Schlitz, Old Milwaukee, Lone Star, and Colt 45. June 4, 1896 Henry Ford test drives his first automobile on the streets of Detroit. 1898 Ford establishes the Detroit Automobile Co., producing all of two cars before the company fails three years later. 1899 Ransom E. Olds opens Detroit's first auto manufacturing plant. Nov. 3, 1901 Ford opens his second car company, Henry Ford Co. Ford leaves the company in August 1902, and it becomes the Cadillac Motor Co. Detroit is America's 13th biggest city, with a population of about 286,000. June 16, 1903 Ford starts the Ford Motor Co. in Detroit; among the 12 initial investors are brothers John and Horace Dodge, who start manufacturing their own Dodge cars in 1915. Ford soon moves his operations to the suburb of Dearborn. (The company hasn't built a car in Detroit since 1910.) Sept. 16, 1908 William Durant and Charles Stewart Mott found General Motors in Flint, Mich., as a holding company for Buick. (Today, GM is now the only one of the major U.S. automakers headquartered in Detroit proper.) June 6, 1925 Walter Chrysler starts the Chrysler Corp. in Detroit. It is now headquartered in Auburn Hills, a Detroit suburb. 1950 Detroit's population hits 1.85 million, making it America's fourth-largest city, with 296,000 manufacturing jobs. 1958 The 3,500,000-square-foot Packard Motor Car Co. factory in Detroit, opened in 1903, is shuttered. It still stands today, a symbol of Detroit's long, slow decline.

President Biden ran for office to restore the soul of our nation. He is unequivocal: there is no place for hate in America against anyone. Period. Today, he and Vice President Harris are announcing that their Administration will develop the first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia in the United States. We look forward to continuing our work with community leaders, advocates, members of Congress, and more to develop the strategy – which will be a joint effort led by the Domestic Policy Council and the National Security Council – and counter the scourge of Islamophobia and hate in all its forms. For too long, Muslims in America, and those perceived to be Muslim, such as Arabs and Sikhs, have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks and other discriminatory incidents. We all mourn the recent barbaric killing of Wadea Al-Fayoume, a 6-year-old Palestinian American Muslim boy, and the brutal attack on his mother in their home outside Chicago. Today’s announcement is the latest step as part of President Biden’s directive last year to establish an interagency group to increase and better coordinate U.S. Government efforts to counter Islamophobia, Antisemitism, and related forms of bias and discrimination within the United States. Moving forward, the President, Vice President, and our entire Administration will continue working to ensure every American has the freedom to live their lives in safety and without fear for how they pray, what they believe, and who they are.

Republican presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy headed to Nashville on Wednesday and demanded that Gov. Bill Lee release the writings of Covenant School shooter Audrey Hale. Ramaswamy slammed politicians and law enforcement for their “stonewalled silence” on the deadly shooting by the 28-year-old transgender artists who opened fire in the private elementary school on the morning of March 27. “We have to learn from tragedy to prevent it in the future,” Ramaswamy told a crowd as he stood in front of Davidson County Courthouse in Nashville Wednesday afternoon. He railed against Lee, the Metro Nashville Police Department and the FBI as he repeated “Tell us the truth,” before adding: “The whole truth, nothing but the truth.” “I do believe they’re hiding this manifesto,” he added. Ramaswamy further slammed the FBI for “hiding and sitting on this manifesto” despite having released similar writings in other instances of mass shootings. He called it “perfectly reasonable” for officials to release a redacted version of the writings. “But what we do need to know is this killer’s motives, this killer’s psychological state of mind, the truth of the matter is that we have a mental health epidemic in this country that is driving a wave of violence around this country,” he said.

Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon and is one of the most iconic events in the history of space exploration. Here are some key facts about the Apollo 11 mission: Mission Objectives: Apollo 11 was launched by NASA on July 16, 1969, with the primary objective of landing astronauts on the Moon and returning them safely to Earth. The mission aimed to demonstrate the capabilities required for lunar exploration.

Activities on the Moon: Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin conducted various experiments, collected samples of lunar soil and rocks, and planted the American flag on the Moon's surface. They spent about two and a half hours outside the Lunar Module. Return to Earth: After spending approximately 21 hours on the lunar surface, the Lunar Module's ascent stage rejoined the Command Module in lunar orbit. The astronauts then began their journey back to Earth. Splashdown: Apollo 11 successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on July 24, 1969. The crew was recovered by the USS Hornet. Historic Achievement: Apollo 11 was a historic achievement and a major milestone in the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union. It demonstrated American technological prowess and fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's goal of landing a man on the Moon before the end of the decade. Scientific Contributions: The mission brought back valuable scientific data, including lunar rock and soil samples, which provided insights into the Moon's history and the solar system's formation. Apollo 11's success marked the beginning of a series of lunar missions and was a significant moment in human history. It remains an iconic event, with Neil Armstrong's first step on the Moon being one of the most memorable moments in the 20th century.

The ascension of Mike Johnson to the post of speaker of the House marks the latest and perhaps the most consequential event to date in the alliance of white evangelical Christians with the Republican Party. It also adds a chapter to the alliance of evangelicals and former President Donald Trump. If there were many in the Capitol and in the country surprised to see the little-known Johnson as speaker, they share that amazement with those who could not imagine Trump in the White House. Beyond that, there is the eye-opening fact that these utterly different personalities — and the conservative Christian movement itself — all owe their current status and power to their cooperation with each other. Who is Mike Johnson? An ardent conservative who embraces far-right policies POLITICS Who is Mike Johnson? An ardent conservative who embraces far-right policies How Johnson came to be speaker Those in conservative circles are still debating Trump's role in the rebellion that ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy in early October. As president he had a relationship with McCarthy, even calling him "my Kevin" at times. This year he was not pleased to see McCarthy strike a deal with Democrats on the debt ceiling in the spring and again on the government shutdown deadline this fall. But the anger that boiled over and forced McCarthy out came from within his own ranks of House members. Thereafter, Trump did put an endorsement for Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, one of the several candidates who would be nominated to succeed McCarthy but unable to get a majority of the whole House to elect him. Jordan had been perhaps the fiercest defender of the former president during Trump's first impeachment proceeding in 2019. Trump's backing was a big plus for Jordan, who had not been part of the leadership before. But in the end, even that endorsement was not enough. The fear among swing-district Republicans was that Jordan's high-profile abrasiveness would dim or even doom their own reelection prospects in 2024. POLITICS What the House speaker election fiasco says about Trump's power When Jordan failed, the House Republicans entertained a new batch of candidates for their nomination, and among them, Johnson initially got just 32 votes out of more than 200. The field shrank to just Johnson and Tom Emmer of Minnesota, the House majority whip and next on the leadership ladder. Emmer prevailed 117 to 97. Trump had made it clear earlier that Emmer was not his pick, calling him "totally out of touch with Republican voters" and a "globalist RINO." The Minnesotan had voted to certify the results of the election in 2020, apparently making him anathema to Trump and therefore to many House Republicans. Without even taking the issue to the floor, Emmer withdrew. Johnson, a junior member of leadership little known outside Louisiana but a champion of Trump's false claims of election fraud in 2020, suddenly stood tall. Trump came out for him, clearing that hurdle. So the choice for his party confreres had become Johnson now, or who-knows-who and who-knows-when. After three weeks of indulging their personal preferences, they were ready to be done. Johnson's conservative record Trump erupted with predictions of success for Johnson on social media. He will certainly be the most pro-Trump speaker. He may also be the most conservative speaker in generations, and surely the most public about his religiosity. The first photos to go viral after his selection showed him leading the House GOP in prayer.
