House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has not shied away from the cameras as negotiations to reach a funding deal stalled, leaving the government shut down.

Both parties have rushed to blame the shutdown on the other side, but Johnson has been busy making TV appearances, holding press conferences, and even joining C-SPAN’s Washington Journal to take calls from viewers, which a speaker hasn’t done in more than two decades. Johnson has also appeared on major networks such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, and Newsmax, among others, to push his message about the shutdown.
