Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that.

Much like the Hitler Youth was the youth wing of the Nazi Party, the Young Republicans are the youth wing of the Trump-Republican Party. The commonalities of the Hitler Youth and the Young Republicans is their dedication to Nazi ideology and one supreme leader. 😳👇

It’s incredible that the VT State Senator wrapped up in this hasn’t resigned yet — every major GOP leader in the state has called for his resignation. Fixing democracy requires restoring shame to public life. And accountability. Lots of accountability. vtdigger.org/2025/10/14/v...
