House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office told Breitbart News exclusively that he intends to remain as Speaker of the House after he cast the deciding vote against ending the deep state’s warrantless surveillance of American citizens on Friday.
Johnson, who is now rushing down to Mar-a-Lago to hope former President Donald Trump gives him a lifeline, is facing serious questions as to whether or not he can continue in the position after a string of major policy failures on his watch. Johnson intends to hold a press conference with Trump to unveil a messaging bill meant to stop illegal aliens from voting. The proposal is not serious, and stands no chance in the Senate. Using Trump like this, as a shield with a messaging bill that is not serious, has rubbed lots of Trump-aligned movement leaders the wrong way in a big way.
“He’s not resigning,” Raj Shah, the Speaker’s spokesman, told Breitbart News when asked about rumors that he was considering leaving the post. “No,” Shah reiterated when asked if Johnson was considering stepping down.

Republican Leadership is an oxymoron.
He was confused , he didn’t know what he was doing ,they had him under Warrantless Surveillance ,LOL
Democrat-controlled House.
Hakeem Jeffries only needs a couple of Republicans to make him Speaker. That’s not an outcome any of us want.
The deep state wins—screw all you dregs and peons!
President Trump should make an obviously feeble excuse to cancel his appearance with Johnson and just leave him hanging.
POS Uniparty hack.
Is there any difference between Jeffries and this POS Johnson?
Just keep voting in Congressional elections.
Pretend it matters.
Have they ever read the constitution? Oh all this work like warrants make if real hard to do. yeh that was the point a____e.
At least he closed the border. Oh wait...
Mike Johnson, Democrat in Disguise (DID)
Can anyone remember a time when Pelosi voted with the Republicans against all Democrats?
Right. That’s a clue.
Vacate the chair!
What a tool. There is zero reason he needed to save 702 domestic spying. The hell with him.
The FBI showed Johnson what they have on him
Oh wait-
Speaker Johnson just said the republicans are going to act (re the border). Can’t wait! They’ve only let 15M in the last 3 yrs. What a joke!

If you don’t punish these people they will never change.
Instead, “conservatives” endlessly forgive and enable them.
The Left always punishes traitors. That’s why they always win.
The Left is willing to take the short term political hit, for long term success.
“Conservatives” are just the opposite. Which is ironic given they like to lecture others on the need for deferred gratification and low time preference.
