House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) celebrated Democrats seizing the House by unprecedentedly relying on the opposition party to force President Joe Biden’s priority of Ukraine border defense funds toward a full House vote on Saturday.
“We look forward to every member voting their conscience and their desire, and that is exactly how this process is supposed to work and how the house is supposed to operate,” Johnson told reporters on Friday after passing a rules bill. “So we’re happy to provide that.”

I glanced at the title, and smiled. Because I thought for sure this article was from that great satirical site, “The Babylon Bee”.
I’m not smiling anymore.
WUT?
git er dun
Not sure why my comment was removed so I will try again. He is one sick cuck. We would be no better or worse off if a RAT was running the House.
What would be the difference?
Is that for real? So much for representing the constituents that put them in office. 🙄
The REAL Johnson is dead or kidnapped.
I never heard of this cuck until he ran for speaker. Why is that always the case? And when I saw him for the first time, I knew he would act exactly as he has acted so far. The adopted Haitian was the icing on the cake.
I don't know if anyone in Congress represents their constituents the way they're supposed to, except for a few exceptions. If I ever elected as a congress critter, I'd find some way of polling the area I represented and finding how they wanted me to vote, then do so as the majority wanted. I'd just make sure the area was solidly conservative!
...And no wonder we’re $34T in the hole. When everyone in Congress can get whatever their conscience and desires can pass at taxpayer expense.
The vast majority of House Republicans supported the aid package, which included aid for Ukraine. I wish Ukraine aid had been left out, but House Republicans voted in favor of the bill by well over a 2:1 margin if the figures I’m seeing are correct.
I think I heard he got Paul Ryan’ed.
He is a useless little man. What a disappointment.
Johnson’s quote just proves that the needs of the constituents don’t even merit consideration.
Why secrure a border to protect the taxchattal (at least!) when your conscience and desire is to throw money all over the world?
I remember the sham trials
They need to bring the motion to vacate the chair, so the public can see the Uniparty in action. When Congress act in “bipartisan” manner, it means they are screwing everyone.
It’s all fake money. But they line their attic and basement walls with it.
This guy went from 0 to 100 in a month. He’s flaunting his untouchable status
Can he be primaried?
Why is it that every Republican who assumes this role immediately turns traitor?
