Resurfaced comments in which new House Speaker Mike Johnson talked about how he and his son monitor each other’s online activity using “accountability software” have raised questions about national security.

Johnson, a Republican who was first elected to Congress in 2016, spoke in 2022 about how he installed software called Covenant Eyes on his devices during a panel called “War on Technology” at Cypress Baptist Church in Benton, Louisiana, Rolling Stone reported.

According to a clip first posted on X, formerly Twitter, by a user called Receipt Maven, Johnson spoke about how the subscription-based service helps people abstain from internet porn and “objectionable” websites.

    It sucks gopher nads, but not in a fun way. Especially being a liberal, and gay in such an environment. You’d think I was the worst criminal since Jeff Dahmer, yet I’ve never not towed the line, not payed my tithing, or dared to go out or date someone. I know what the mormons can do to someone they hate. And hate, they most certain do, and you do NOT want to cross that line with them.
