Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House called No Kings protests “hate America rallies”. Nothing could be further from the truth. These are true patriots exercising 1st Amendment rights to say we do not want dictatorship by Trump. We don’t want unneeded military troops in our cities. We want democracy.

WASHINGTON (AP) — “Republican Speaker Mike Johnson predicted Monday the federal government shutdown may become the longest in history, saying he “won’t negotiate” with Democrats until they hit pause on their health care.” How and why are we the people allowing him to do this?? 😡🤷‍♀️

If anyone has been listening to Mike Johnson & some cabinet members frothing at the mouth, describing the evil nature of No King's Day on October 18th, be aware that they may be preloading the definition of "rebellion" to EQUAL the No Kings March on Saturday.

Justify invoking Insurrection Act.

Rep. Adelita Grijalva still hasn't been sworn in. Mike Johnson knows that Grijalva would vote yes on the release of the Epstein files. #gopcorruption #swearherin

Speaker Mike Johnson lies so routinely, one would think he would be better at it by now.

In Mel Brooks parlance, don’t bother to meet with the piss boy, Mike Johnson

He’ll just waste your time while and get you all wet and messy

Speak with the guy who actually makes the decisions instead

TUR: Have you met with Mike Johnson?

JEFFRIES: No

TUR: Why not?

JEFFRIES: Donald Trump has not given him permission to meet, Katy and we know that until Donald Trump gives them permission to meet, they're going to continue to hide.

It's weird that the guy who made the spyware app that Mike Johnson uses to spy on his son's porn-watching, and vice versa, was found to have a stash of CSAM and that just blipped right out of the news.

The way they project to deflect. It was so successful to lie before. Let's attack anti fascists to keep the focus off of the Epstein files and corrupt MAGA Trump crime syndicate selling out America for profit. That's where we are Mikey! Bald faced liar and fake Christian. Or Christians lie a lot!

You know who hates America

The guys who took healthcare away from millions of Americans

The ones who CUT billions of dollars for programs like cancer research and FEMA

Who sit and watch the president use military troops to attack our cities

That’s Mike Johnson

HE hates America

So let me see if I understand Mike Johnson, me attending the “No Kings” this weekend make me “hate America”, and “pro-Hamas”. I say to him eat shit!! I served this country in the military for over 20 years. I consider protesting the basis of why I served.

Donald Trump's peace in the middle east, doesn't matter? Because he's waging war, right here, against American citizens who disagree with him and MAGA fascism. He isn't American. He's a traitor. Plain and simple. A fucking traitor to democracy and the rule of law. ANTI AMERICAN TRUMP!

Crooked. The entire deal is corrupt. Trump is a criminal. Corrupt as all hell! Selling out America to those who hate America in the middle east. That's where he will flee to avoid prosecution for child rape. Release the Epstein files.

Donald Trump, the MAGA leader just thanked all middle eastern countries including Saudi Arabia. They all have huge deals with the Trump crime family and Trump mega donors. This entire middle eastern Israel Gaza ceasefire will not last why? Because it's totally, totally, corrupt! Totally!
