Speaker of the House Mike Johnson wrote the foreword and publicly promoted a 2022 book that spread baseless and discredited conspiracy theories and used derogatory homophobic insults.

Written by Scott McKay, a local Louisiana politics blogger, the book, “The Revivalist Manifesto,” gives credence to unfounded conspiracy theories often embraced by the far-right – including the “Pizzagate” hoax, which falsely claimed top Democratic officials were involved in a pedophile ring, among other conspiracies.

The book also propagates baseless and inaccurate claims, implying that Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts was subjected to blackmail and connected to the disgraced underage sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Other sections of the book defend podcaster Joe Rogan from racism charges after it was revealed he used the N-word, which Rogan later apologized for. The book also disparages poor voters as “unsophisticated and susceptible to government dependency” and easy to manipulate with “Black Lives Matter ‘defund the police’ pandering.”

“Scott McKay presents a valuable and timely contribution with The Revivalist Manifesto because he has managed here to articulate well what millions of conscientious, freedom-loving Americans are sensing,” Johnson writes in his 300-word foreword.

Johnson’s endorsement of the book extends beyond the foreword: In 2022, he actively promoted the book on his public social media platforms and even dedicated an episode of his podcast he co-hosts with his wife to hosting McKay.

During the podcast episode, Johnson expressed his belief in the book, stating, “I obviously believe in the product, or I wouldn’t have written the foreword. So I endorse the work.” He also referred to McKay as a “dear friend” and highlighted that the book “really could make some waves.” Over the years, Johnson had written opinion pieces for McKay’s blog, the Hayride, and engaged with the author on public platforms like Facebook.

CNN sucks and they lie 24/7

[NorthMountain]

including the “Pizzagate” hoax, which falsely claimed top Democratic officials were involved in a pedophile ring,

"Hoax"? "Falsely claimed"?

OK, CNN. Thanks.

Now we know it is all true ... and probably far worse than we suspect.

Typical CNN BS!

[RoosterRedux]

Even your enemy’s propaganda tells you what he is thinking. And if you don’t know your enemy, you cannot defeat him.

[Maris Crane]

The Hated CNN vs. ANYTHING THAT IS OPPOSED TO CNN...

I choose “ANYTHING THAT OPPOSES CNN”

They have NO idea of the TRUTH. So, the choice is easy,
If CNN reports it...I disregard it!

[gitmo]

I wonder what a “homophobic insult” is.

[RoosterRedux]

Foolish.

In this article, CNN is telling us how the Left plans to attack Mike Johnson and the rest of us.

They are telling us that they plan to give Christians the same treatment they are planning for the Jews. Isolate and eliminate.

Can you imagine Eisenhower and Churchill saying, "I don't care what Hitler thinks. We don't need to know what he is planning, and where and how he intends to attack."

Not smart.

[RoosterRedux]

I’m guessing it’s “abomination.” ;-)

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

They keep using that word. I do not think it means what they think it means.

'Fear of man"? I fear no man.
