I was working at the U.S. Attorney’s office taking on the opioid crisis at the very same time as Jack was making millions of dollars creating materials downplaying the dangers of opioids. Families across New Jersey suffered while Jack got rich.

REPORTER: Do you support repealing Obamacare and what's your healthcare plan?

MIKE JOHNSON: We worked on repealing and replacing Obamacare back in 2017. I still have PTSD from the experience. We know that American healthcare needs dramatic reform. We have lots of ideas.

(So, no plan)

Democrats, don’t cave! Hold the line! We’re wining the blame game because our reasons are just and good for Americans, theirs is cruel. And Americans are seeing through Trump’s and Johnson’s lies.
