The top GOP lawmaker and his wife Kelly informally adopted James after meeting him while doing charitable community work in Louisiana in the 1990s.

James went on to have a string of conflicts with law enforcement, beginning just a few years after the Johnsons took him in, and continuing to this day.

He claims to be a Christian, so they are trying everything at their disposal to prove that he is not. Also, they are hating on any Republican.

I agree.

I think it speaks to Mr. Johnson’s great character that he wanted to help this very troubled young man.

guilt by associationI think I can live with that one. The entire democratic party seems to have gone over the precipice in declaring their support for baby beheading, teenage girl raping, murderous terrorists. From this we can conclude that all democrats are murderous terrorist who need to be rounded up and sent to Gitmo.

What’s with all these hit pieces in the media against Mike Johnson?

The Left is scared to death of Mike Johnson and with good reason.

Johnson is going to be devastating to the Left and their Marxist movement.

When children reach the age of accountability, they are responsible for their own decisions.

Shame on the anti-Johnsons for thrusting his family into the public.

IMO, this is a twisted plan to compare Johnson’s adopted son to criminal President Biden’s ’s criminal son.

They are evil in the extreme, and anyone who tries to help a minority they believe they own by giving them an opportunity to escape poverty and hopelessness, the left sees as their worst enemy.

[[By all means let’s excoriate people for trying to do a good thing.]]

Liberals excel at doing just that (excoriating people i mean)

Children raised in the homes of the politically connected, doesn’t mean they will be good persons.


Look at whoring crackhead Hunter Biden.

A lot of these kids were borne by mothers with addictions, so that the kids start out life addicted themselves, and intellectually impaired. Very hard cycle to break.

It’s not Johnson’s fault how this guy turned out. He and his wife were just doing the Christian thing of trying to help someone. This just seems to be another smear job.

It’s not news when the Dung Beetle Party’s family members do it. In fact, in the Bidenskyyyyyyys’ case, it’s not even a crime.

Did Mike Johnson: 1) send 82,000 emails under assumed names? 2) accept millions in bribes from foreign interests? 3) work about one hour a day; 4) ignore the Supreme Court on a variety of issues, including student loan repayments; 5) be accused of sexual impropriety by a former female staffer; 6) constantly lie that his son Beau was a war casualty; 7) compulsively lie about his academic status, admission to the Naval Academy, being the recipient of a merit scholarship; 8) lie about being the quarterback for Delaware; 9) falsely accuse the truck driver in his wife’s accident to have caused it and to have been drinking; 10) give the eulogy for a fellow senator who had been a KKK member??
