During a conversation on the War on Technology at Benton, Louisianas Cypress Baptist Church unearthed by X user Receipt Maven last week the Louisiana representative talked about how he installed accountability software called Covenant Eyes on his devices in order to abstain from internet porn and other unsavory websites.

It scans all the activity on your phone, or your devices, your laptop, what have you; we do all of it, Johnson told the panel about the app.

It sends a report to your accountability partner. My accountability partner right now is Jack, my son. Hes 17. So he and I get a report about all the things that are on our phones, all of our devices, once a week. If anything objectionable comes up, your accountability partner gets an immediate notice. Im proud to tell ya, my son has got a clean slate.

That's what you took away from the direct quotes?

-sigh- again, not surprising at all in this current political sphere.

Josh Duggar had Covenant Eyes installed when he was arrested for possession of child porn.

I refuse to believe he never did the deed when he was younger. Also, there's no shortage of ways to get off even with these restrictions.

Have you listened to any of the Republicans (especially the Speaker) of late? At all?

They would pitch us all headlong into Gilead if they could.

Until he gets someone pregnant. Then those anti-abortion laws the GOP are pushing so hard for will become a nuisance

Ah, who am I kidding. Theyd find a way to get it done.

Children's Congress, Mary Tyler Moore, International Chairman of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, presents JDRF's Hero's Award to U.S. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R-IL), for his pivotal role in securing federal funding for type 1 diabetes research and his support for JDRF. Also pictured: Children's Congress delegates from Speaker Hastert's home state, 2003.

What the hell, that's Mary Tyler Moore? She looks like a relative of Kellyanne Conway.

Also, even though Dennis Hastert was before my time and I know about him without seeing a picture of him, I instantly thought to myself "that's gotta be Hastert" because the dude looks like Dennis Hastert knowing only his reputation and history.

Willingly installing software called "covenant eyes" to spy on yourself and your family feels like something out of a story trying to parody dystopian stories, or a gag for a sitcom episode

Even ignoring the weirdness of this, someone in such an important public office willfully installing spyware on his devices seems like a pretty serious security issue.

The fact that the Speaker of the House thinks this shit is normal really worries in terms of the kind of horrifying dystopian shit that might get passed. Stuff like EARN IT, KOSA, and all kinds of other bad things are still floating around both chambers of Congress.

People make fun of the alternate timeline conspiracy theories all the time, but reading those quotes made me feel like this just can't be real. Such an unhinged, irresponsible nutjob living in a fantasy land can't really have this much power over our country, can he? This is WAY worse than Trump.

It's actually very par for the course as far as U.S. evangelical fundamentalist "Christians" go. I've heard journalists and experts who study this stuff talk about how he's not unique at all when you get into the realm of people who think like him. We just haven't had anybody like that in a position of power or at least not in modern times.

For all the faults Kevin McCarthy had, at least he wasn't this sack of shit we currently have.

Covenant Eyes is the app that got that Duggar dude in trouble for all the CP. I fully support all GOP members and their family using Covenant Eyes. As a demographic those people overwhelmingly need it.
