Mike Johnson also says ICE SHOOTING A MINISTER and snatching child’s from their beds, zip tying their wrists and laying them naked on concrete, doesn’t cross his imaginary moral line!

Hey, Rep. Mike Johnson! You need to RELEASE the EPSTEIN FILES to prevent children from being raped by the likes of Epstein and his "friends" (and you KNOW who we mean by "friend of Epstein").

Over 1,200 convicted Jan 6 rioters pardoned—yet Mike Johnson still swears they “stand with Capitol Police.” The plaque still collecting dust says otherwise. The only thing they’ve stood with is their own reflection, choking on the stench of their own gaslighting.

“In April, Architect of the Capitol Thomas Austin told a House subcommittee that House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, had not instructed him to install the plaque. The speaker is responsible for any modifications to the House side of the Capitol, Austin noted.”

There have been plenty of jokes about Republicans forgetting who was president in 2020, but the party’s habit of forgetting about the Jan. 6 attack is far less funny.

House Speaker Mike Johnson insisted Tuesday that he would not swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva until Democrats relent and end the government shutdown.

Grijalva, speaking alongside Democrats, including Sen. Mark Kelly, on Wednesday, said the delay “is not procedural. It’s intentional.” 🧵

While Mike Johnson claims he doesn’t have a strategy, we know that’s a lie. His strategy: give tax breaks to billionaires and protect the predators since he won’t release the Epstein files. All while Americans suffer.
