Mike Johnson refuses to open the House. Refuses to do oversight. Refuses to defend the Constitutional rights that only protect so long as they are enforced. Refuses to stand up to child predators. So we organized our own hearing in Chicago yesterday. https://youtu.be/2ihL3DpXj2A
And if you’re objecting to this on the grounds that I accused Trump of being a child predator… well, you can choose to follow Mike Johnsons example and protect child predators too. Or you could insist on the release of the Epstein files that might clear his name.
Maybe that release will explain why this isn’t as disgusting and criminal as it sounds. https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/jane-doe-affidavit.pdf
Maybe the release of the Epstein files will explain why this corroboration of the prior which also alleges a the rape of a 12 year old girl by Trump is somehow not as bad as it looks. https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/tiffany-doe-affidavit.pdf
Maybe the release of the Epstein files, which presumably include this picture will turn out to be a picture of a puppy on a beach that only looked like Trump with topless teenagers and a stain on his pants if you hold it upside down and squint your eyes just right. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dJ_4xk6HepQ
Maybe Mike Johnson, who was - I’m not making this up - the Dean of a law school named after a child rapist - has had a midlife crisis and now really wants to stand up for victims of child traffickers. https://apnews.com/article/paul-pressler-death-southern-baptist-convention-abuse-ac42aa8817b287fb6963edf3b0110273
Maybe when Mike Johnson says he’s nervous about releasing unredacted versions of the Epstein files because of the effect it might have on victims he isn’t saying that he believes Donald Trump to be said victim in need of protection. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVaPSz8i9Nk
Or maybe not.
But here’s what I know: Mike Johnson isn’t doing a goddamned thing to protect children who are being abducted off the streets by a White House who knows this sanctimonious, cowardly man would rather shred the Constitution than stand up for the American people.
@SeanCasten maybe Mike Johnson is Speaker of the House, and his role in the Congress is larger than an obsession with this one guy.
Maybe he's just not as tunnel focused on your thing; maybe his job is larger than that.
It is.
@volkris @SeanCasten yet his actions seem to confirm his focus on protecting Trump. Not swearing in the newly elected representative, not opening the House for regular business being just two examples.
If his focus was on protecting Trump then he would have pushed for legislation that would have done so. He didn't, he repeatedly refused to do what Trump wanted.
No that conspiracy theory is ridiculous. His actions confirm that he wants to stay Speaker and not get replaced by the House for violating the consensus that they should get government reopen.
The House will come back into session. It makes zero sense to say that he is protecting Trump here, because this will happen.
@Oma_Trisha_F The ball is in the court of the other chamber right now.
The Senate is gridlocked, and there's nothing for the House to do about it.
Calling the House back into session would do nothing to change that situation. It would probably make it worse, it would encourage the gridlock.
This is a problem for the Senate to resolve, not one for the other chamber to interfere with and make even more complicated.
@volkris @deepthoughts10 @SeanCasten
"It will come back into session" after tens of millions of Americans go hungry, healthcare coverage premiums go up so high 20 million will end up uninsured, and the bastard in the WH has done even more damage to our country.
Enough is enough. The sniveling shitweasel is DELIBERATELY avoiding doing anything for the people who chose him to represent them.
