CNN’s chief congressional correspondent, Manu Raju, spoke to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Monday and asked him about President Donald Trump’s ongoing claims that the Los Angeles mayoral race is “rigged” against Republicans. “Speaking of fraud, the president keeps saying that there’s election fraud in the California mayor’s race.

What evidence is there to prove that?” Raju asked Johnson while walking through the U.S. Capitol. Johnson replied, “You tell me, Manu. They are counting votes weeks after the election. We have entire nations with huge populations, like India, that can count their votes in 24 to 48 hours.”. Raju cut in, “You’re saying it’s rigged, like the president?”

“I’m not saying it’s rigged. I’m saying it stinks to high heaven, and everybody knows that. Let’s — let’s — let’s remove the appearance of impropriety. Let’s have — what, what a concept — let’s have votes on an election the day of the election. That’s what many states are able to do. I think California is playing around with us,” Johnson insisted. “But what evidence is there to prove that the election was rigged?” Raju pressed.

Johnson replied, “Some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream, it is impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here, and that’s a concern. We need people to believe in the integrity of our election system. It is critical to maintain a constitutional republic. We’re going to keep working to pass the Save America Act because it requires, as you know, proof of citizenship and a photo ID to vote. Those are also 90-percent-plus issues in public opinion, and 70 percent of Democrats understand that’s necessary.”. Raju shot back, “Aren’t you all just saying that because you lost the election — because the Republicans did not win? Is that why we’re hearing this?”

1. Memo to Mike Johnson:

I know that your faith requires you to believe without proof, but this is real life. You need evidence before your claim becomes a fact.

If you can't prove it, it likely doesn't exist.

So STFU.

3. You may be much better than I to believe he is actually a "true believer" in anything. I doubt he holds

a true belief in ANYTHING except that which might improve his own political, financial, and personal PROSEPECTS. IMHO he's hitched his soul to Trump and not Jesus.

Sorry, but I have to take it further. That he USES a form of religion in which so many in the world hold true and sincere beliefs to get what but HE PERSONALLY wants and as an EXCUSE to do some really horrible things and DEFEND some despicable political ideology makes him, to me, the worst of the worst. He hurts, devastates, and yes, kills countless numbers without ever holding the gun--with his political actions--all "defended" under the guise of HIS "Xianity." My contempt for him is dwarfed only by that for Trump himself. I can only hope he gets his "just rewards" before he hurts even more people and is tossed from Congress asap. If history tells us anything, Trump will soon dump him after the midterms and he will wish he'd left willingly.

4. The something that is wrong

Is you and your Lardass boss. The sooner you both are gone the better. I long for the day that some questioner gets so pissed off at the lies these asses spew that they pop them right in the snout.

[eShirl]

5. a vibe isn't proof

[MLWR]

6. Yeah, Mikey, it's impossible to prove something that doesn't exist.

7. Ummm...

So, counting all ballots to make sure they are all good is bad unless Republican thieves get the results they want?

8. Hey, MAGAt Mike! No One Ever Had An Issue...

With mail-in ballots…until Cantaloupe Caligula the Corpulent opened his ignorant, racist pie hole.

GFY with a rusty pipe brush while you check your GRNDR account. Douchebag.

ETA: “India famously takes about 6 weeks to conduct a general election, not 24-48 hours. This is because that nation faces a similar (but more extensive) challenge as California: making sure a very large number of people have every opportunity to vote.” Electoral-Vote.com

9. I had and still have the same feeling

It was in November 2023 when the TSF won.
“I’m not saying it’s rigged. I’m saying it stinks to high heaven, and everybody knows that. Let’s — let’s — let’s remove the appearance of impropriety
I ask myself how, just how.....

19. I want one of the US House Reps to put forward a motion

to Censure (Censor?) Mike Johnson (aka House Mouse Pastor Mike) for making comments furthering disinformation.

Sick of him getting away with gaslighting. His little innocent pastor boy schtick is getting old.
