Mike Johnson: “I regard myself as a wartime Speaker”
Twitter/X ^ | April 17 | Rep. Massie

“I regard myself as a wartime Speaker.”

Get a grip; we are not at war. You can’t use that as an excuse to justify passage of warrantless spying, a bloated omnibus, or $100 billion in foreign aid.

This a—hole thinks he is Dubya’s brother. GW Bush:
‘I consider myself a wartime president.”

Are you saying the border crisis is not a war? Yes it is. And that by itself makes him a wartime speaker.

I said you can’t call yourself a wartime speaker and leave our borders wide open. That’s a “surrender speaker” not a wartime one. Defending our borders is really the only thing we absolutely need a government for. If you abandon that, you’re not a wartime anything. The actual war as it stands is over, lost.

I regard Johnson as a flip flopper and POS.

The Republican Speaker of the House is seeking a rule to pass almost $100 billion in foreign aid - while unquestionably, dangerous criminals, terrorists, & fentanyl pour across our border. The border “vote” in this package is a watered-down dangerous cover vote. I will oppose.

it is surely disappointing that we don’t have one conservative who will make the privileged motion to vacate.
I can only hope and pray that someone will.

JOhnsonhas tirned against his own party.He cast a tie breaking vote to re-institude section 702 of FISA.

He is a traitor to the People.Section 702 is how the FBI is used to illegally investigate legitimate political activity.
It allows for fascism to grow.

NOw JOhnson must go. He is compromised and can no longer act.

You say vacating him will totally destroy any GOP majority in the house. Fine, let the horrors begin. We will elect a new slate in November.
