House Speaker Mike Johnson told a hotel conference roomful of Christian conservatives that he was the only thing stopping Democrats from investigating not just President Donald Trump, but all of his allies and family members — and many of them, too.
Johnson spoke on Friday to the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s annual summit, a gathering of religious conservatives, where Trump also spoke later in the day. Most polling shows Democrats have a good chance of winning back the House of Representatives, but Johnson warned of the consequences for such a Republican defeat.
He warned that while Trump will not be on the ballot again, his future might be, along with their own.
The video is even worse than how it reads.
Brazenly bragging about a cover-up.
Apart from the obvious implication they are engaged in crime, even the term “protection” is just comedically accurate on-the-nose mafia terminology for what is happening - a subtle threat of punishment to “supporters” unless they comply.
Once again, it’s hard to think of a better insult than what they openly admit to. It’s another confirmation they are psychopaths, because if they were at all capable of shame, they’d feel nothing else.
Narcissists too
I wonder if any of them have ever considered just not breaking the law?
If their ideology weren’t “rules for thee, not for me” they wouldn’t be Republicans in the first place.
Most are too dumb to know what the law is let alone have the backbone to stand up to anyone with a quarter in their pocket willing to split it with them for looking the other way
Mike Johnson defends pedophiles
You know another name for a person who defends/ protects pedophiles?
A Pedophile.
NGL the No tax but for billionaires one is kinda pissing me off. You went through all that effort only to fuck up on the last leg and stuck it on the wrong fucken side.
That sounds like a confession of committing a criminal conspiracy
Treason?
Is there still a country left to betray?
Well, I guess the silver lining is that it’s so damn easy to hate these ghouls. Like, they don’t even try to have a shred of anything remotely resembling likability to confuse my rationale or emotional impulses.
So he’s the guy the Iranians and Saudis need to pay to kill Trump? Is that what he’s saying?
Saudis
stupid question - who’s that? I guess go back to pre-9/11 saudis? or are they newly pissed off because of this shitshow war?
just wondering
The ones who are pissed because Iran bombed them because Trump stirred up a fire next door
are they newly pissed off because of this shitshow war?
so option b. eh guess it makes as much sense as anything
Everything in the Middle East happens AROUND Saudi Arabia. NOBODY wants to piss them off, for any reason. They have more money than Allah.
Iran does.
NOBODY
uhh… recent events seem to disagree…
If you had a mob guy saying this on a movie or TV show, it would get rejected for being too on-the-nose.
I’m thinking most people know - that’s why he’s always running away from journalists when they are asking him the fluffiest of questions…
Stephen Colbert really took a turn after he got fired from his show the first time on comedy central and changed his name and became a louisiana congressman. What a dick.
Did you really confuse Stephen Colbert with known pedophile Mike Johnson?
You are way, way off dude
Are you implying that stephen colbert didn’t assume an alternate identity and go into rw politics while someone else took over his persona?
Wow.
I can not tell now if you were confused or just bad at being funny
Ha ha, ok.
Stephen Colbert is too handsome and intelligent to be confused with this ghoul. I see the set-up, but the punchline needs work
