'Ethics violation': Mike Johnson's speech to right-wing group raises questions

New questions have been raised about House speaker Mike Johnson's speech four years ago for the right-wing Council on National Policy.

The Louisiana Republican spoke to the conservative group on Oct. 4, 2019, at the New Orleans Ritz-Carlton, and there's a 31-minute video to prove it.

However, Johnson never filed a travel report or list the event on his annual personal financial disclosure that year, reported The Daily Beast.

"That leaves a few options: he paid for the trip out of pocket, the trip somehow didn’t trigger the same reporting requirements that it did for his colleagues, or Johnson simply failed to disclose a gift from the conservative organization," reported Roger Sollenberger. "Neither Johnson’s office nor CNP returned a request for comment about the trip."

Rep. Jody Hice (R-GA) filed a gift travel report when he spoke to the CNP at the Orlando Ritz-Carlton in February of 2019, showing is transportation was $884, a night at the hotel was $370, and the registration fee was $675.

Reps. Mark Green (R-TN) and Chip Roy (R-TX) filed similar gift travel reports for their own speeches to the CNP in 2019 and 2022, respectively.

“The most reasonable inference is that the very well-heeled CNP covered Johnson’s expenses when he addressed the group’s meeting in 2019, but the new speaker failed to report those gifts,” said Brendan Fischer, deputy executive director of Documented. “What [would make] it an ethics violation is if the payments aren’t reported."

Although Johnson lives in Shreveport, Louisiana, his speech makes clear that he had traveled to New Orleans from Washington, D.C., and he most likely stayed there overnight, because Shreveport is a five-hour drive and there are no passenger trains or direct flights between the two cities, and Fischer doubts the lawmaker paid for his trip out of pocket.

“If a person is tight on cash, why on earth would they pay out of pocket to attend a conference financed by some of the wealthiest individuals in the country, when the conference sponsor is willing and able to pick up the tab?” Fischer said. “All he has to do is properly report the gift.”

Mike Johnson 'clearly violating federal laws' with 'laughable' filings: ethics complaint

WASHINGTON, DC - OCTOBER 25: U.S. Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) applauds alongside fellow lawmakers as the House of Representatives holds an election for a new Speaker of the House at the U.S. Capitol on October 25, 2023 in Washington, DC. After a contentious nominating period that has seen four candidates over a three-week period, the House GOP conference selected Johnson as their most recent nominee to succeed former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who was ousted on October 4 in a move led by a small group of conservative members of his own party.

House speaker Mike Johnson and his wife's finances are the subject of a new ethics complaint filed by a government watchdog.

The left-leaning nonprofit and advocacy group End Citizens United filed a complaint with the House Ethics Committee, presenting multiple potential violations in his financial disclosures, just hours after The Daily Beast published a deep dive Monday evening into the Louisiana Republican and his wife's income and other discrepancies in their reported finances.

“The American people deserve to know whether the Speaker of the House has financial conflicts of interests, but Speaker Johnson is clearly violating federal laws by hiding critical information from the public,” said Tiffany Muller, president of End Citizens United. “It’s laughable to believe that the person leading government funding negotiations doesn’t have a reportable savings or retirement account. But beyond his own potential financial mismanagement, failing to disclose travel and his spouse’s sources of income is against the law and the Office of Congressional Ethics must investigate and hold him accountable.”

Johnson's office responded to The Daily Beast minutes after the story published, and a full 24 hours after a deadline provided for comment, to say they had not had time to review detailed questions for the report – which runs to nearly 4,000 words – that a reporter had sent Friday afternoon.

“Everything we learn about Johnson’s finances raises more questions," said Jordan Libowitz, communications director for watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. "When comparing his state filings to the federal ones to what’s been previously reported, things quite literally don’t add up."

Johnson raised eyebrows, to say the least, when he claimed to have never had a bank account but offered no additional explanation, and Libowitz and other watchdogs say the gaps in his financial disclosures are highly unusual.

“It’s hard to tell just how much money Johnson has made and why, when he lives in such a low cost of living area, that money doesn’t show up in his disclosures,” Libowitz said. "[He can't] wave his hands and make this go away. The questions will keep piling up until he answers them."

Well Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and the progressive/liberal/Democrats rolled the House Speaker and the treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans again. They just passed essentially a clean CR with two pitfall exceptions no funding for Ukraine and Israel. Which amounts to hostage taking. A small minority of treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republican Putin supporters don't want to fund Ukraine. But hardly anyone other than some of the Squad are opposed to funding Israel right now. Which is political suicide for treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans right now. So both Ukraine and Israel are going to have to be funded.

But other than that the Democratic priorities are intact. Funding levels remain about the same and all Speaker Johnson managed to do with massive help from the Democrats is kick the can down the road to January and February when the stakes of a shutdown will be even higher for them. Which President Biden and the progressive/liberal/Democrats relish because the treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans are on the verge of fist fights now. And the vast majority of Americans are sick and fucking tired of the constant chaos.

And ironically enough Kevin The Coward will probably be punching a few more of his colleagues because this is the exact same thing he was removed as Speaker for.



House passes stopgap bill to avert government shutdown

• By Clare Foran and Haley Talbot, CNN
• Nov 14, 2023 Updated 21 min ago

The House passed a stopgap bill on Tuesday to keep the government open, putting Congress on a path to avert a shutdown and setting the stage for a broader funding fight in the new year.

The Senate will next need to approve the measure. President Joe Biden is prepared to sign the bill if it is passed by the Senate, a White House official told CNN. Government funding is currently set to expire at the end of the week on Friday, November 17.

The stopgap bill passed the House on a bipartisan basis with a vote of 336 to 95. More Democrats supported the measure than Republicans – a warning sign for newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson. Two hundred and nine Democrats voted for the bill, while only 127 Republicans voted for it. Ninety-three Republicans and two Democrats opposed the bill.



In the first major test of his leadership, Johnson is pursuing an unusual two-step plan that would set up two new shutdown deadlines in January and February.

The bill would extend funding until January 19 for priorities including military construction, veterans’ affairs, transportation, housing and the Energy Department. The rest of the government – anything not covered by the first step – would be funded until February 2. The proposal does not include additional aid for Israel or Ukraine.

The plan would give lawmakers more time to attempt to negotiate and pass full-year spending bills, though major partisan divisions would make that effort fraught and complicated. Johnson has argued that his plan would prevent Congress from passing a massive spending bill in December – a scenario that has played out many times before when lawmakers have faced a deadline right before the winter holidays.



But the strategy is risky. The short-term funding plan has already resulted in backlash from some conservatives, a dynamic that forced House Republican leaders to turn to Democrats for votes to pass it as the GOP holds only a narrow majority in the chamber.

A number of conservatives oppose the stopgap bill because it would not implement the deep spending cuts they have demanded. Instead, it would extend funding at current levels. As a result, the bill required Democratic support to pass the House.

House Democratic leadership released a statement ahead of the vote saying they would support the stopgap.


“House Democrats have repeatedly articulated that any continuing resolution must be set at the fiscal year 2023 spending level, be devoid of harmful cuts and free of extreme right-wing policy riders. The continuing resolution before the House today meets that criteria and we will support it,” the joint statement from House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries and other top House Democratic leaders said.

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was ousted after putting a stopgap bill on the House floor at the end of September. The move averted a shutdown but sparked a conservative revolt against McCarthy that led to his removal as speaker.

Despite the opposition within their ranks, many House Republicans are signaling that Johnson will be spared the same fate as McCarthy. Even the more conservative House Republicans who are opposed to the new stopgap bill – and who voted to oust McCarthy – are willing to spare Johnson their ire.

“He’s had two weeks to pass it. His predecessor had had since January, and then he jammed us up against the September 30 deadline,” said GOP Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee. “I’ll just tell you that Speaker Johnson hasn’t lied to me. That’s a good thing.”


Johnson defended his approach to avert a government shutdown and insisted his handling of the situation differs from McCarthy.

“Kevin was in a very difficult situation when that happened,” Johnson told CNN’s Manu Raju. “This is a different situation, the innovation that we created, this new vehicle that the Democrats initially said was so frightening, actually turns out to be something that will change the way we do this.”


“This is a very different situation,” he repeated.

“We’re not surrendering, we’re fighting, but you have to be wise about choosing the fights,” Johnson continued.

He added, “Look, it took decades to get into this mess, right? I’ve been at the job less than three weeks, right? I can’t change, I can’t turn an aircraft carrier overnight.”

Johnson vowed, however, that he is “done with short-term” stopgap bills, a big promise that will set up a nasty fight down the line.

In a sign of continuing tensions in the aftermath of McCarthy’s ouster, Burchett accused McCarthy of elbowing him in the back Tuesday morning while he was talking to a reporter after the party’s conference meeting.

McCarthy denied the incident to CNN’s Melanie Zanona and said, “I didn’t shove or elbow him. It’s a tight hallway.”

American hater is so dishonest he can't even bring himself to post the full exchange that makes him laugh out loud.
Given his reaction to this it seems American hater doesn't believe in God either.
Which, you know, if pretty telling cause in other posts he's talked about his faith in God.​

 

On a more important matter we see once again the despicable practice of attacking anyone not in lockstep with their beliefs.
Adult discourse be damned, if you aren't in lockstep with our beliefs you are the enemy and are to be destroyed, no matter what it takes. they seem to believe.

Case in point, speaker Mike Johnson. A few weeks ago he was just another legislator in the House doing what politicians do. No one much paid attention to him.
Then he gets elected speaker.
And the despicables pull out all the stops.
They attack the man.
They attack his religion.
They attack his family.
They attack every single thing he does or ever did do.
Just now it's his finances, with a bunch of innuendo and "sources familiar with the situation" authorities.
They criticize because Johnson doesn't report his bank accounts.
Well, he doesn't have to if there's less than $1,000 in them, which is apparently the case with Johnson.
Course, that doesn't stop the left from inferring that one can't be a politician without a bank account.

What this all tells us is that the despicables are well beyond willing to openly discuss policy or differences.
They keep losing those debates is what happens.
So rather than change their thinking, they changed their tactics.
And use propaganda, and lies, and dirty tricks at every turn.
Whatever it takes, eh?

And you can't hate America more than that.

 

Just more trumptard spew. Johnson already proved his loyalty is with Der Fuhrer and not to America.

Liz Cheney called new House Speaker Mike Johnson "dangerous" because he supported overturning the results of the 2020 election.

"He was willing to set aside what he knew to be the rulings of the courts, the requirements of the Constitution, in order to placate Donald Trump."

 

No one cares what Liz Cheney thinks or says.
Except dishonest despicables when she, you know, panders to them for attention.

 

Of course, the truth hurts, eh

 

you tell us.

 

So shooter, explain to us why speaker Johnson supported Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election?

Enlighten us

 

And he claims to be such a great Christian and all he does is lie cheat and steal. It looks like about the only thing he really bows to is getting Democratic votes.

No kidding talk about triggered. Nothing like the treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans getting rolled by the Democrats again to set hm off I guess.

And explain why he would bear false witness to his colleagues and the Spree Court no less.

 

Hard-Line Republicans Furious At Speaker Mike Johnson For Avoiding Shutdown

WASHINGTON ― Far-right Republicans were incensed at House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) successful bid to fund the government with support from Democrats.

The House on Tuesday passed Johnson’s so-called two-step stopgap bill that would fund certain parts of the government into mid-January and others into early February, setting up potential partial government shutdowns unless spending agreements are reached.

But it was Johnson’s method to get the bill through the House, as well as the fact it contained no spending cuts, that angered some House Republicans. Johnson relied overwhelmingly on Democratic votes instead of those from his own party.

The House Freedom Caucus, a bloc of several dozen lawmakers, formally opposed the measure, though it did not say it would retaliate against Johnson. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) suggested, however, that there could be consequences.

“We’ll see,” Roy told reporters. “I tend to try to give people grace. I gave Kevin grace, I give Mike grace. Tough job. But I strongly disagree with this play call.”

Johnson used a special procedure to circumvent the House rules committee, where Roy and other conservatives had threatened to block a floor vote. The procedure, known as suspending the rules, is usually reserved for non-controversial bills with broad bipartisan support. It requires a two-thirds supermajority for approval, meaning lots of Democrats will have to back the resolution for it to be adopted.

House Democrats provided the bulk of the support in a 336 to 95 vote Tuesday. If approved by the Senate and signed by President Joe Biden, the bill would fund smaller federal agencies like the departments of Transportation, Agriculture and Veterans Affairs, and several others through Jan. 19. Other agencies, including the two biggest in the Defense and Heath and Human Services Departments, would be funded through Feb. 2.

Without an extension, the government faces a midnight deadline Friday night for shutting down.

Roy said it was “asinine” to use suspension, and suggested that he might withhold support from future Johnson priorities. “It’s hard to fundraise and vote for certain things when you’re getting rolled on other things,” he said.

Johnson defended his choice and touted what he said was a new spin on the usual stopgap bill formula.

“We’re not surrendering, we’re fighting. But you have to be wise about choosing the fights,” Johnson said at a press conference. He added that the idea of setting different dates for different portions of the government to shut down if no agreement is reached is “an important innovation” that changes the dynamics of the debate.

McCarthy was ousted in part because the stopgap funding bill he passed using Democratic votes also had no spending cuts, like Johnson’s measure. But Johnson said he’s not worried he will face the same fate as McCarthy.

“I’m not concerned about it at all,” Johnson said. “Kevin should take no blame for that. Kevin was in a very difficult situation when that happened. This is a different situation.”

McCarthy, in a recent interview with CNN’s Manu Raju, also said Johnson’s job is safe, with House Republicans wary of trying to oust another speaker soon after the three-week House shutdown that happened as they struggled to replace McCarthy with Johnson.

“Who are they going to replace him with?” McCarthy asked.

Several conservatives who oppose Johnson’s continuing resolution said they don’t think the speaker will face any serious retaliation, since he’s only been in the job for a few weeks.

“The team’s down 30 to nothing in the fourth quarter, you put in the backup quarterback, and you want to hold him accountable for the three quarters of failure that got you behind?” Rep. Bob Good (R-Va.) said, explaining why the team shouldn’t bench Johnson.

Still, Good likened the vote to both a fumble and an interception. “But I’m not cutting the guy,” he said.

The most dysfunctional, incompetent, and laughable clown show I have ever seen. And what is so funny its all of their own making. The right employed fear hate and anger fueled by lies, false propaganda, and psychological projection. And all that did was help a bunch of stupid, ignorant, and mentally ill people get elected. Who they in turn bent over backwards to appease and gave them power. And now they have seized control. Which prevents them from making any kind of front against President Biden and the Democrats. Because the treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans have turned on each other like packs of rabid dogs.



House abruptly heads home early after conservatives retaliate over Johnson's government funding plan

WASHINGTON – House lawmakers abruptly went home a day early partially due to a familiar sight for the House Republican conference: a rebellion from the lower chamber’s most conservative lawmakers.

The quick departure came just one day after passing a short-term stopgap measure to avert a government shutdown.

Some 19 Republicans, mostly comprised of members of the ultraconservative House Freedom Caucus, tanked a procedural vote Wednesday morning. The procedural vote – referred to as a rule vote – has traditionally passed along party lines regardless of any member’s support or opposition to the bill’s rule.

House conservatives, however, have broken that precedent multiple times this year, illustrating how unwieldy the deeply divided GOP majority is for newly installed House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.

Hard-right lawmakers shot down the rule vote this time around partly out of retaliation for Johnson’s funding plan – referred to as a continuing resolution – that cleared the House Tuesday. Those members have clamored for past months that any funding legislation include deep spending cuts, but Johnson’s bill was considered “clean” for retaining government funding at current levels.

Among their other grievances was opposition to a slate of amendments on one of the 12 appropriations bills needed to fund the government long-term.

“There’s certainly a concern with the bill itself in addition to concern relative to what happened with the (continuing resolution) yesterday,” said Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., a member of the Freedom Caucus who voted against the rule.

Chair of the Freedom Caucus, Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pa., contended that he and his conservative colleagues killed the rule vote out of “good faith” in pursuit of conservative policy wins.

New speaker, old divisions
Underscoring how divided the House Republican conference is even after electing a new speaker, moderate Republicans from the New York Delegation for the first time also voted to take down the rule.

Rep. Nick LaLota, R-N.Y., told reporters he voted against the rule due to spending cuts that he said would have disproportionately affected law enforcement in his district.

“We should regroup, get back to the kitchen, maybe choose some new ingredients, cook it a different way,” he said.

The House, which was originally scheduled to stay in session until Thursday, is now slated to return after Thanksgiving on Nov. 28.

The dysfunction that appears to have roiled House Republicans once again has been the norm for the conference since they took control of the lower chamber in January, but the fractures that have emerged from both conservatives and moderates threatens to make the appropriations process to fund the government long-term more arduous than it already has been.

“It’s never easy to get work done here,” said Rep. Dusty Johnson, R-S.D., chair of the Main Street Caucus, a group of pragmatic House Republicans.

“It’s a lot harder when you have people who I think are prone to emotionally immature decisions,” Dusty Johnson continued, nodding to the House’s conservative hardliners. “This is retaliation. If something doesn’t go their way, they decide they want to blow something up. I guess this is today’s fatality.”

Speaker Johnson’s ascension to the speakership was paraded as a significant victory for House conservatives, who ousted his predecessor, Kevin McCarthy over his failures to meet their deeply conservative demands.

But those hard-right members’ opposition to his government funding plan and their sinking of the rule vote reflects how Johnson’s election as speaker changes little in the dynamics of the conference.

“Overall the functionality is gonna get a little worse before it hopefully gets better,” said Rep. Garret Graves, R-La., who was one of McCarthy’s closest allies. “I think that some of them are coming to realize it and I think some of it knew it the whole time.”

Liberal Media Shrieks in Fear Over Flag Outside Speaker Johnson's Office (msn.com)
Liberal Media Shrieks in Fear Over Flag Outside Speaker Johnson's Office
Story by Michael Schwarz • 2h

Rolling Stone magazine must have given its affluent liberal readers a feeling of breathless anticipation.

"The Key to Mike Johnson’s Christian Extremism Hangs Outside His Office," the story's alarming headline read. Oh no. What could it be?

According to co-authors Bradley Onishi and Matthew D. Taylor, the Republican House Speaker showcases his "Christian Extremism" by flying the Pine Tree flag, better known as the "Appeal to Heaven" flag.

You read that correctly. The flag designed in 1775 by Joseph Reed \-- lieutenant colonel in the Continental Army, aide-de-camp to General George Washington and future signer of the Articles of Confederation -- has become, in the twisted imaginations of Onishi and Taylor, a symbol of "Christian Extremism."

Readers unfamiliar with the flag's history might nonetheless recognize it from its brief appearance during the opening montage for the 2008 HBO miniseries, "John Adams." That montage, coupled with the theme song, remains one of television history's most stirring introductions.

According to Onishi and Taylor, however, that flag now "leads into a universe of right-wing religious extremism." In fact, "in the past decade it has come to symbolize a die-hard vision of a hegemonically Christian America."

Onishi has taught at the University of San Francisco and elsewhere. Taylor works as a "senior scholar" at the Institute for Islamic, Christian and Jewish Studies in Baltimore. Hence the go-to academic jargon, "hegemonically."

Their reasoning regarding Johnson and the flag could not be more tortured, but here it is in a nutshell:

Modern Christian leaders who believe in prophecies and other supernatural elements of the ancient faith have adopted what the authors pejoratively labeled an "aggressive theological vision." Many of those same leaders have supported former President Donald Trump. Thus, they regard the 2020 election as stolen. In fact, some protesters carried "Appeal to Heaven" flags outside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Predictable, right?

Well, despite the authors' hand-wringing over one of the most obvious straw men ever created, Onishi apparently thought his co-authored story would receive a favorable reception on X, formerly Twitter.

"Mike Johnson, second in line to the presidency, flies a symbol of insurrection and violence outside his office. It is a window into his religious extremism. @TaylorMatthewD and I wrote about it for @RollingStone," Onishi posted on Friday.

Mike Johnson, second in line to the presidency, flies a symbol of insurrection and violence outside his office. It is a window into his religious extremism.

The fun part is, Johnson won't need a cross, or holy water, or even garlic to send the despicables racing under their desks.
He can just wear this on his lapel.
Or maybe carry a small pine tree flag with him to whip out when despicables get to close.​

Can you imagine?
Nancy Antoinette stirring from her lair to offer up a vote on, say, funding for the border wall, fully intending to spew and rally the troops cause, biden and open border, and there's Johnson, with his flag.​

 

Mike Johnson Says Americans 'Misunderstand' Separation Of Church And State
Nick Visser
Updated Wed, November 15, 2023 at 9:11 PM MST·2 min read

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Tuesday that the notion of separation of church and state was a “misnomer” and that the nation required “everybody’s vibrant expression of faith.”

Johnson made the comments in an interview with CNBC’s “Squawk Box” after host Andrew Ross Sorkin asked about an image of the lawmaker praying on the House floor earlier this year.

“When the Founders set this system up, they wanted a vibrant expression of faith in the public square because they believed that a general moral consensus and virtue was necessary,” Johnson said. “The separation of church and state is a misnomer; people misunderstand it.”

“Of course, it comes from a phrase that was in a letter that [Thomas] Jefferson wrote. It’s not in the Constitution,” he continued. “And what he was explaining is they did not want the government to encroach upon the church — not that they didn’t want principles of faith to have influence on our public life. It’s exactly the opposite.”


Johnson, a religious conservative, was elected speaker last month and quickly sparked concern among Democrats for his efforts to oppose abortion and gay rights. He took a Bible to the rostrum in the House before taking his oath of office, saying the “Bible is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority … each of you, all of us.”

“Someone asked me today in the media, ‘People are curious, what does Mike Johnson think about any issue?’” Johnson recalled later that week on Fox News. “I said, ‘Well, go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it. That’s my worldview.’”

On Tuesday, Johnson said he believed the Founders “knew” religion would be “important to maintain our system” of democracy.

“That’s why I think we need more of that,” he said. “Not an establishment of any national religion, but we need everybody’s vibrant expression of faith because it’s such an important part of who we are as a nation.”

Shooter likes this Johnson fellow.
He has demonstrated the ability to lead, bring together diverse views, find mutual ground and prioritize issues facing the nation.

That he puts the fear of God in the heathens is a bonus.

 

We need to clear up some of the lies and false propaganda being spread here.



This is not the flag Speaker Johnson has outside his office.




This is the flag Johnson is flying outside his office.








It has been adopted as one of the flags of the Christian Nationalists.

And we really need to understand what Christian Nationalism is.


What is Christian nationalism?

Christian nationalism is the belief that the American nation is defined by Christianity, and that the government should take active steps to keep it that way. Popularly, Christian nationalists assert that America is and must remain a “Christian nation”—not merely as an observation about American history, but as a prescriptive program for what America must continue to be in the future. Scholars like Samuel Huntington have made a similar argument: that America is defined by its “Anglo-Protestant” past and that we will lose our identity and our freedom if we do not preserve our cultural inheritance.


https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2021/february-web-only/what-is-christian-nationalism.html


Christian Nationalism is in reality Sharia Law For Christians enforced by the American Taliban.

It is a movement to do away with our Constitution and change the United States of America from a democracy to a theocracy


And if you can hate the United States of America more than that I don't see how.
