True. Johnson is trash. We best get rid of all RINOS.

Republican legislators are probably all under surveillance anyway.
All it takes is a setup where a foreign source calls or emails them.

On one new program this morning Jim Jordan gave the clearest reasons why extenssion of section 702 of the FISA regime should not be passed without an amendment he said was proposed to be included. That amendment did not get included.

Watch as this deft leader does a backwards sommersault while pulling the rug out from under his own future.

The only difference at this point (presumably) is their willingness to throw up some procedural roadblock to prevent Trump from being certified. If that wasn’t a real concern, I’m not sure how much I’d really care about having Jeffries replace Johnson.

It really seems like they may have something on him. For the first few month of his speakership, he did some good things and seemed to be all in. Now he’s taken an abrupt turn. It’s hard for me to explain it any other way than that he’s being pressured behind the scenes.

Are the republicans really that stupid? Seriously where are their brains?

See GIF of girls spewing coffee. There is no bound to Republican stupidity. If the Intel community really needs this capability so badly then make them show how they are defending civil liberties by delivering on pikes the heads of everyone who has been involved in abuse of this power. Body parts traded for names of hitherto unnamed culprits. Let's do one of those three hops thing how many people do the people you conspired with conspire with and how many did they conspire with. You guys want to serve your country and save it from its enemies foreign and domestic, here is your chance.

As angry as I am that it passed, and as angry as I am that Johnson cast the deciding vote to pass it, don’t forget that we have a bunch of SPINELESS RepubliCANTS who could have made that needed difference. It didn’t have to come down to one man, and it shouldn’t have.

Honestly, I don’t think anything can explain the positions of some of these Congresscritters other than plain old blackmail. Watch the Oliver Stone movie “Snowden” to get an idea of what kind of tricks the Deep State has up their sleeves...

With Johnsons like these, who needs a Jeffries.

Nope! That would be 10 times worse! But half of the people here refuse to look at the bigger picture, weigh pros & cons of whatever circumstances happen to be at any given moment, come up with a plan that takes past, present & future circumstances into account & positions us well on election day & work hard to elect & enact the most conservative agenda possible. At present, all half of the people here care about is electing Trump (like one person could change everything on his own) & paying 20 times more attention to internal battles with
establishment GOPers than communist Democrats, violations of free speech & enacting election id & oversight statutes. I had so many hopes for MAGA energy. Other than for Trump, they don’t appear to be showing up- but they’re certainly happy to complain a lot. I’ll await their inevitable ‘I know you are but what am I?’ 🙄

He voted to allow violation our Constitutional rights. He is the enemy of Americans.

As expected, not one poster can come up with any comment from Speaker Johnson that suggests or shows he would have voted in any way OTHER than he did regarding FISA.

It shouldn’t have been a surprise that Johnson voted the way he did re: FISA.
