TAPPER: You're a man of faith. Does it matter anymore for Republicans to think of leaders as people who are moral in their personal lives? Is that still important in the GOP?

MIKE JOHNSON: Ah, sure. What I'll say about the nominees the president has put forward is they will shake up the status quo.

1. So moral means to shake up the status quo

Got it. Lots of people going to use that.

2. Sadly, it might happen

A measles outbreak, I mean

4. measles affects early pregnancy.....if not vaccinated.

Measles exposure during pregnancy can cause serious complications for both the mother and the fetus, including:

Maternal complications
Increased risk of hospitalization, pneumonia, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), a rare but fatal neurodegenerative complication
Fetal complications
Miscarriage, stillbirth, low birth weight, and increased risk of preterm delivery

Measles is a highly contagious disease, and pregnant women are at a higher risk of serious complications. If you suspect you've been exposed to measles, you should call your doctor immediately and get tested. If you're pregnant and exposed, your doctor will likely order a test to collect secretions from your nose and may also suggest a blood test.
To protect yourself against measles, you can: Get vaccinated before getting pregnant, Avoid people who are sick, and Wash your hands with soap and water.
If you're considering pregnancy, you can check your immunization record to see if you've had the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine. If you haven't, you should get vaccinated. It's recommended to get two doses of the MMR vaccine at least four weeks apart, and to avoid pregnancy for 28 days after the second dose.

5. Measles AFTER CHILD HOOD can you say

Impotent ?

Measles in teens and early adulthood can leave a male impotent. Just ask George Washington.

Also, AFTER beating measles, a young person's immunity is weak and PNEUMONIA is a complication that KILLS. People forget the actual dangers of the disease.

3. Well, in their opinion,

a dead kid is better than an autistic one.

Vaccines are safe and don't cause anything other than an immune system response that keeps you safe from disease. Dumb, stupid idiots!

6. Mike Johnson and the rest of them do not care who dies or how many die or how they die.

People really need to let that sink in.

They. Don't. Care.

They'll blame the deaths on everything but their actions.

7. Don't even get me started on mumps.

That vaccine is included in the measles one.
