#House Speaker #MikeJohnson has a tendency to think that when things go bad for his party, it’s the product of gross legislative mismanagement, judicial #weaponization, & a vast executive #conspiracy. But when his party wants to do something, it’s because #justice is swift & everything is proceeding according to plan. #HouseRepublicans’ efforts to hold AG #MerrickGarland are no exception to this trend.

Johnson has placed two of felon Donald Trump’s favorite coup-plotting members of congress on the House Intelligence Committee putting two people so closely associated with the Insurrection on a committee that protects American national security. 🚨

As Jody Kantor shows, Alito's flag story doesn't add up.

"The justice told Fox News that his wife hoisted the flag in response to Ms. Baden’s vulgar insult. A text message and the police call — corroborated by Fairfax County authorities — indicate, however, that the name-calling took place on Feb. 15, weeks after the inverted flag was taken down."

The Badens are the neighbors that Alito blames for provoking his wife to fly her flag.

RE

Well, that's funny, because it's so similar to what said on his last (Oct 2023) podcast . That is, are NOT connected to the govetment laws being passed. Actually he feels "must not be involved in the goverment"
(something like that, check podcast)

Johnson was the chief whip for Donald Trump.
Mike Johnson led the efforts to overturn our election. He is anti-choice. He blocks our border security. He lies for criminal Donald Trump. He supports conversion therapy. Mike Johnson is a deranged white christian nationalist aka American nazi.

Johnson’s insane dominionist Christian nationalism, aka fascism dictates that the bible should drive decisions in government and white supremacists will rule over you and our treasury.

    I am calling out the in Congress as Putin-owned who support overthrow of our government.

    and republicans' open fealty to Putin, a hostile foreign intelligence agent, who is one of the most infamous cold-blooded killers in human history & wanted war criminal.

    Mike Johnson & republicans are blocking a bill that would supply ammunition to soldiers, despite the widespread support in Congress and support of the American people. Showing the world that Republicans are anti-American & disloyal traitors to our allies and our constitution.

    Mike Johnson may have his own legal problems soon. He has possibly committed fraud on financial declarations to Congress, therein attested he has no bank accounts. Clearly hiding his bank accounts. And he has taking campaign cash from Russians closely affiliated with Putin. He lead the efforts to overturn the election and knowingly peddled . Dominion & Smartmatic voting companies should sue his/add to the defamation lawsuits.

    Let's stay on this . I can make a report to the fbi, if we get any good info.

    Any American supporting or coddling putin disgusts me to my core. The GQP aka Republicans are implicit in not only his death, but the deaths of every Ukrainian who has died to russian aggression. Thousands of rapes, tortures, murders of innocent Ukrainians. They're responsible for every child stolen from their parents and "reeducated" with russian propaganda. And they're responsible for trying to put someone just like putin in the White House.

    and traitorous republicans blocked the on aid. And then went on VACATION for 2 weeks.

    1. Russia helps elect Trump. For the first time in US history, a hostile foreign power has an American ally in the WH. Eight years later, Republicans are helping Russia wage a genocidal war against European democracy. It is the greatest shift in America’s stance in world since 1776. A major US party has joined forces with a nuclear power waging war against democracy. If Republicans prevail in helping Russia, what it means to be an American will forever be changed. A shroud of shame will descend on the legacy of the Greatest Generation. They fought to liberate Europe. Republicans are fighting to enslave a European democracy — Stuart Stevens

    maga Republican Refuses to Back Because It Could Help Biden's Poll Numbers

    Creating the problem then blaming Democrats for the problem has been standard Republican operating procedure for decades.

    The Republican congressman admitted Wednesday that he will not be supporting any solutions for the border because they could be beneficial for Biden's poll numbers.

    Of Course, republicans Vote "NO" on border funding, it's the republican strategy- to Fix Nothing, spend all day lying about the Border problems & 'Gaslighting' their base.

    Johnson to Jake Tapper: Now is not the time for immigration reform...it's too complicated.

    Republicans will never vote to solve border problems. Ever.

    So, let me get this straight: The Senate has reached a BIPARTISAN border deal, but “Speaker” Mike Johnson just said he refuses to even consider it. NONE of this is President Biden’s or Democrats’ fault. This is all on Republicans & it’s beneath contempt. They simply don’t care.

    Again, REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS reached a bipartisan border deal. But this is how Mike Johnson decided to respond. They aren’t engaged in any serious policy making whatsoever. It’s all revenge politics & it’s revolting.

    They need to have something to run on. The economy is doing well. Jobs are growing.

    "If they allow efforts to address the border issue to pass, Republicans lose their main talking point. They'd rather keep the border as a cudgel to use during the election." Repubs want a wedge issue.

    Mike Johnson doesn’t want to discuss his undemocratic actions —after all, they make him look really bad!—Johnson led the amicus brief to overturn 2020 election.

    On January 6, voted to reject Pres. Biden’s Electoral College win,.

    Republicans call him “the architect of the Electoral College objections.”

    Johnson:

    ➡️ Is the Chief whip for Donald Trump.

    ➡️ Is antiabortion, called the overturning of Roe v. Wade “a great, joyous occasion,” & is celebrated by SB Anthony Pro-Life America, gives him A-plus rating.

    ➡️ Is anti-LGBTQ+, introduced legislation based on Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law, called homosexuality “sinful” & “destructive,” & asked Amazon to lift its ban on conversion therapy books.

    ➡️ Voted against sending aid to Ukraine

    ➡️ Voted to eliminate funding for immigration refugee assistance.

    ➡️ Defended trump during both impeachments, and was been “suggested” by him for the Speaker role. Which kind of tells you everything you need to know.

    Trump ELECTION CRIMINALS BITE THE DUST

    Kenneth Chesebro: Pro-Trump lawyer pleads guilty in Georgia election subversion case, implicates Trump in fake elector conspiracy.

    Kenneth Chesebro, an attorney who helped orchestrate the Trump campaign’s 2020 fake electors plot, pleaded guilty Friday in the Georgia election subversion case to being part of a conspiracy alongside former President Donald Trump and others.

    The plea deal is another blow to Trump and a major victory for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who charged Trump and 18 others in the effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election. It comes one day after former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell also pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors.

    Chesebro pleaded guilty to one felony – conspiracy to commit filing false documents.

    Side note: Ken Cheesbro is a BFF of Virginia Ginni 'Gitmo' Thomas
