Democrats Promise to Bail out Speaker Johnson if He Backs Immigration Plot
The Hill ^ | 01/19/2024 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 01/19/2024 10:33:24 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

House Democrats promised to bail out Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) if he were to do the “right thing” and help pass an immigration bill that would do little to combat the border crisis unfolding under President Joe Biden.

Johnson has said he opposes an immigration deal struck by Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) and Democrats.

Although he faces significant pressure from President Donald Trump and conservatives not to back the deal, Democrats are now offering to help him keep his speakership should he face a motion to vacate over his passing of the immigration bill.

No. Deal. https://t.co/9lNJT4fmT2

For some reason an old fable about a Scorpion and the Frog come to mind.

I wonder if this is just Democrat manufactured rumors and propaganda to make conservatives angry with Johnson. He’s on a knife’s edge as it is....

I don’t know - am simply presenting a possibility

Another vote to run him out would expose the rinos. Won’t matter as the rates will vote 100% in sync. They stick together.

I would assess that possibility at 100% correct. Democrats play hardball and I have no doubt they would make an offer of support to a Republican to betray other Republicans.

It is not likely they will deliver on whatever was promised for the betrayal. But it costs them nothing to make rumors of an offer.

I was shocked to hear that he believes the Biden was placed in office by God. I would not have believed that anyone with a room temperature IQ could be that stupid. He is a danger to the nation.

Somebody that stupid might think that if he opposed Biden, he is opposing God.

It turns out that Pelosi, for all practical purposes, is still the Speaker of the House. The little worm refuses to release the Jan 6 tapes, doing the bidding of Pelosi.

Maybe this nation is experiencing the wrath of God.

And then because the Demoncrats ... I mean Democrats will give all the illegals they’ve allowed into the country the right to vote the House/Senate/White House will be under their control forever and Speaker Johnson out of a job.

Fake news from the DungHill.
The Senate wouldn’t be pushing it if Biden didn’t want it.
