New Moses is a liar, and he's repeating the mistakes of Old Moses by leading his people around in circles.
He broke the law like jaywalking is breaking the law.
But actually less dangerous than jaywalking.
If Biden is such a lawless motherfucker, the #GOP damn well better hope that SCotUS doesn't give him free reign to exile them from the country or just straight up zero them w/ this upcoming immunity decision.
This is a distraction from the Intelligence committee's news.
I bet they found a backchannel between Johnson & the Kremlin.
How about that Russian company that is Mike's top campaign contributors?

Ironically all perfectly legal and above-board, because there's no law against US branches of foreign companies covering the legitimate expenses of a House Speaker's campaign, like that app that tells your son if you're jerking it.
While American Ethane was run in 2018 by American John Houghtaling, 88 percent of the firm was owned by three Russian nationals—Konstantin Nikolaev, Mikhail Yuriev, and Andrey Kunatbaev.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstantin_Nikolaev
Konstantin Yuryevich Nikolaev (also transliterated as Nikolayev) (Russian: Константин Юрьевич Николаев; born March 5, 1971, in Dniepropetrovsk, Ukraine SSR) is a Russian billionaire and businessman who is a financial supporter of Maria Butina, a co-owner of the Tula Cartridge Plant that supplies very large amounts of ammunition to Russian forces during Russia-Ukraine War
According to Ilya Yashin (Russian: Илья Яшин), who is an outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin and is incarcerated in Russia for his violations of laws in support of Russia during the Russia-Ukraine War, the family of Konstantin Nikolaev, defense plants in Russia, the NRA, Donald Trump, Trump's gun lobby, Steven Seagal, Maria Butina and others are supporting and financing Russia during its war in Ukraine and have effectively blocked more appropriate sanctions.
Lolz. Damn. That shit's crazy.
Can we scream this from the hill tops and cite our sources? Literally just call Rubepublicans Russians.
Rolls off the tongue
They are the Party of Putin now.
Guild Of Putin?
The mascot isn't an elephant, it's a goatse.
For Mike "Tuggin-Ma" Johnson to accuse Biden of breaking the law must make his anus twitch around Trump's little dick in pleasure.
Jesus these visuals are getting out of hand, I don't want to picture that
I don't have an army, billions of dollars, or a Supreme Court in my pocket. I can only fight evil with mockery.
To you, I apologize for spattering your imagination. To the GOP? I'll leave that to your imagination.
I’ll leave that to your imagination.
You better not do that. You might spatter his/her imagination a second time.
The only ones I purposely wish to offend (in this context) are the traitorous fucks of the GOP - not well meaning folks, and I'm not skilled enough to always avoid them.
To be fair, Mike Johnson is on Putin’s payroll
It's a logical move to lie. He knows his base can't read enough to find out the truth.
They'll believe the lie even if they know it's a lie.
His base won't read enough...
Wait, his base can read at all?!
They'll refuse to read enough...
