Why Mike Johnson is sounding like a 'Republican from the before times'
#MikeJohnson #Congress #Politics
He changed his mind because he realized his own son, who's in the military, would be in danger.
Yup
Good observation.
or he puts his bets on Republicans losing due to MAGA and prepares for that future.
You think Mike Johnson cares more about his son than power? Doubt.
@@mile_high_topher same as trump using Baron's graduation.. while he's never been to any of his other kids grads.. convenient.
Convenient how Trump's interests always align with things that help Putin.
And Joe's align with Zelenskyy's . (Almost as if Z-man has some serious dirt on Joe)
@@Dingleberry777 Nope, that is natural ally of the USA, and NATO, and the west, and the civilized world, and the western world....remember when the GOP were proud of their global leadership, before they abdicated their ranstein head of NATO, and surrendered to Putin , officially in Helsinki in 2016 at the summit?
@@Dingleberry777 Tucker Carlson says it's cheaper in Russia so when are you leaving?
tell me how Trump telling Nato nations to pay their allotted share and Germany to stop buying resources off Russia, which just helps fund their military helps Putin genius?
@@Dingleberry777you are squirming
No one should be praising this man for suddenly doing a 180 on this, he needs to be condemned for playing politics and refusing to honor commitments America had made to Ukraine years ago in exchange for them giving up their nukes. When Russia says that the US started this war, they are not completely wrong. America and the UK convinced Ukraine to give up their nuclear deterrent in the 90s in exchange for security guarantees from the west should Russia ever invade.
Don't confused the MAGA trolls with facts now
@@lindascott3973 < Cultist
I wouldn't say the U.S. " started" the war. Your logic fails there. I do agree we are failing to honor our commitment to Ukraine if we do not immediately authorize more military aid.
No more aid for Ukraine Ukraine's president refuses peace talks with Russia and also refuses to discuss a ceasefire agreement plus when our military leaders tell Ukraine how to fight they refuse to listen to us Ukraine can take care of itself or Surrender all the money they've gotten from the US so far has been used for cruises new vacation homes new cars but none of it has been used for their military or to help their people Ukraine's president is a crook and Ukraine has a big gold Reserve why are they not using it to help themselves
You people are so clueless to what's going on. You do realize that Russia outnumbers Ukraine soldiers by 9 to 1 right? They need idiots to continue this grift, thanks for playing along
Those Russian Sleeper Agents (Confederates) should all he investigated and brought up on treason charges.
Yes, one is obligated work in order to give money to the group of greasy slavic gangsters which is relatively more virtuous or be guilty of a capital offense. Nice try, weasel.
Keeping the Russian hoax alive! 🤣 🤣 🤣
Aka the White Christian Nationalists
Be good to yourselfs and others because tomorrow is promise to no one. And be kind to the homeless specially are veterans never forget their sacrifices
He's the reason why I left the Republican Party now they're just the Russian Maga Republican Party
You’re a very silly boy.
Putin’s best investment was Trump.
@Democracy.Will.Win.866 It's not a coincidence that Democrat and "demon" both begin the same.
@@josephjones825😂 that's what you think is an argument??
@@josephjones825 Tucker Carlson says it's cheaper in Russia so when are you leaving?

Fine. Putin would be a huge improvement from Squinty.
@@sacrificialsuicide8007 When you were born the doctor slapped the wrong end!
This is the chance for Democrats and real Republicans to start getting rid of MAGA.
MAGA means MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN… I’m guessing you don’t know many of MAGA voters and supporters. Maybe you could try and you will realize that we aren’t the radical, dangerous, America destroying, socialists. Sadly that’s the side you’re on and it’s so sad to continue to see extreme radical leftists starting the beginning of their 2016 riots funded by Obama, Hillary and the swamp. (If you went aware l, BLM was paid to riot, the black people didn’t have to do much because of their allies which were mostly fairly young white men and a lot of black women. So… Tell me why Trump scared. You so much and making America great again sounds like an evil plan
MAGA is a reaction to extreme leftists. Get rid of the extreme leftists and people won’t feel the need for MAGA.
The dream - under the umbrella of "democracy now" getting ready for others. This is the fundamental to them of the word Democracy. Using it as a weapon and a shield simultaneously - to attack and then to accuse in the name of democracy.
I agree!! I’m Democrat as they come but I’m very happy with Mike Johnson so far. He has been a good speaker 😬
@@breakingreactions942 And he speaks well for somebody who is a Democrat. For MAGA people this stooge is a grifter and has to go.
Moscow Marjorie, traitor green should be sent to Moscow
It would be funny to do that and give her a youtube channel .. she could talk about how great it is out in Siberia.
She first should go to Ukraine and see the destruction that Russia has done...then go to Russia ...
@@surelyyoujokemeinfailure7531Maybe if she's lucky she can see 👀 Alaska from where she is in Siberia. Kind of a reverse Sarah Palin 😂😂😂😂
... And she could get that other up-Putin's-butt traitor, Tucker Carlson, to give her a tour of those wonderful Siberian grocery stores!
There is no accounting for stupidity.
LOL, the Republicans are finally swimming away from their sank ship.
Good
We must not toss them any life preservers.
@DarthSailorMoo Sank ship?!
How can anybody take you seriously, son?
@@TheDiamond2009 Trying to use your bot accounts to save a sank ship isn't working. Just like Republican Dan Crenshaw not taking you seriously.
@TheDiamond2009 I wouldn't praise a man who sells the The Holy Bible and also has the highest death penalty executions than any other U.S. president. Something is a wrong.
Yeah, it’s all fabulous, froo froo and lifts my soul. Johnson has already shown that he can’t be trusted and wants the US to be a theocracy. Can we really trust him now?
No, but he knows he is ###### no matter what, so that's the only reason he is doing it.
Absolutely not.
No. But still, let's get aid to Ukraine.
Vote all MAGA out in November!🎉
😂
No
Voting Green Party here in PA. End All Foreign aid
YES
Never gonna happen. Trump 2024!
@@lruss240 You're delusional, Grandma.
Wasn’t there a comment by MTG that we didn’t have to concern ourselves with Russian threats because there is the Atlantic Ocean between us? Sure, that makes sense.…if we were in another century.
The US and Russia are 55 miles apart.
MTG probably doesn't know about December 7, 1941. She probably thinks it was a special shopping day.
WHEN is Mike Johnson going to get the assistance started. Words are cheap.
assistance for who? there are already passed bills on the senate floor, Schumer just ignores them, as they don't have the fat in them for other things they wish to hide in it.
Poor GOP! If not for the Dobbs decision, none of this would have happened!
Not true. Their fascism has been on full display since Trump took office in 2017.
I hope and I really hope that will do something in the 2024 election
The GOP is the past. MAGA is the new party
@@jhpstudios8107it will.
You're delusional, comrade. "None of this would have happened" my butt. The GOP has been a lying stain for years. Dobbs was a pursued objective by the GOP for decades. It never "just happened." They did it to themselves, and they deserve all the karma they worked so hard to earn by being crappy to the American people. Profits over people, breaks for rich donors and corps. No healthcare or education support. No free choice. And now, support for Russia because they're bailing out Trump and contributing policial cash to influence US elections and votes?
Just vote blue 💙💙💙💙… no dictatorship
Nope
You forgot we already had a taste of dictatorship in 2021-2022 and we want to be sure that is never allowed to happen again.
The gop is melting. Pass the popcorn 🍿 😋
Turn up the heat
@peruvatwinz0045 yes - before the Dems take their gas stoves away - SARCASM 💙💙
Run ads labelling traitor Greene as a Russian asset. This would save Mike.
Vote Democrat for President Biden and Senate and House
💙💙💙
Only if you hate America
Nah, voting democratic is voting for socialism. No thanks
Yep, and finish the Communist takeover! 👍
My guess is that Mike Johnson understands math and realizes trump won't be re-elected. Maybe he should hold a remedial math class for the rest of the magas in congress.
Mathematical formula is the principle of equations in foregone conclusions I'm of the opinion that if the election were held today Donald Trump would win and for our president he has a 50/50 percent chance at re-election President Biden has lived on to disappoint people as far as his governance and his ability to lead it's only going to get worse the older he gets I would have much preferred had he sequestered to a younger candidate if I had been President Biden when I ran initially back in 2020 I would have told the party guys I'll do this because circumstances but I can't serve another term because I'm not as sharp as I once was but on that arcade for me I won't believe Donald Trump's threat has subsided until he's Behind Bars and he ain't there yet
If you want to know what Putin is thinking just listen to what Trump says.
This is such a stupid argument and it's why most people like me have walked away from the Democrat party. How about actually trying to give us what your goal is considering you're outnumbered 9 to 1 soldiers and how about asking for an actual audit. What's the goal? You really think they're trying to win this war.? People like you have been so confused by the media it's so sad. Go get another booster and keep falling for the lies they need village idiots to keep this grift alive
I'm still skeptical but I've backed off ole moses Johnson, for now
Every time I see Rep. Crenshaw I think of The Pirates Of The Caribbean and can't take him seriously. But he's making a lot of sense in this clip!
time to investigate MTG for her links to Putin
Agree ‼️
Ali Velshi's app ad is becoming more than counterproductive!
THANK YOU! It's getting to the point that I don't even hear Ali's voice anymore!
Because it’s too late and now he can have plausible deniability. It’s all a plot. They are all in on it. Don’t be fooled.
This is what I fear, he can have his cake and eat it...
Its not too late lol Russia has a gained a total of 14 kilometers in offensive advances in Ukraine. That Includes Bahkmut and the entire frontline across the last 2 years. They are completely incompetent. If we had just given the Ukrainians everything they need form the beginning, this war would be over and they would have pushed them back into Russia. There is still plenty of hope for Ukraine.
If Russia were capable of capturing Ukraine, they would have done it in the first weeks of the invasion when they were on the outskirts of Kiev. They are further from success than they ever have been. Sure, Ukraine has had it's issues, but Europe really has really stepped up where USA has failed to, and has been providing them with all kinds of help over the last 6 months. The problem with that is, these countries cant give the level of aid we can. But ya, its not too late. The only time it will be "too late" is when Zelenksy is in the hands of Putin. As long as Zelensky lives, Ukraine has a fighting chance. He is not willing to surrender, and has proven he will continue the fight until Ukraine is free, or he is dead.
I would be surprised if The US has not already staged the equipment and ammo ready to turn over to Ukraine. Some may already be in Europe.
It definitely makes no sense on the surface.
I would not be surprised if the US has already staged the equipment and Supplies already some even may be in Europe.
For the record, Mike Johnson IS NOT a 'Republican from the before times'. He merely wants to appear as such.
Please stop the app ad.
A republican from the "before times". Sounds like a sci-fi novel....maybe it is.
Mike did a right thing for democracy and free world❤❤❤
Sometimes when people get a position of responsibility, they actually become responsible.
True, didn't work for Trump, but maybe, maybe for MAGA Mike. At least they can become more responsible.
Man with principkes. Working together. Would love to see more! Make congress work again!
Sounds like the fix is in ? No need to rock the boat just play along? Just saying think about it? Vote Blue and continue the American experiment. 🔵🇺🇲1776🇺🇲🔵
Blue hates America. You even try to call America a Democracy
As a 47 your old American, it is clear to see our country has hated Russia my whole life
More like Russia has been determined to see our downfall.
If you were older, you would probably better understand why. When the wall came down, things became dramatically different.
Putin has the blood of millions of innocent people on his hands. He is a sociopath. Yes, Americans should hate him. He is the bad guy, the world criminal.
Try visiting Russia and find out why.
As a 73 year old American, I don't hate the Russian people. But I remember Kruschev, I remember the Cuban Missile Crisis, I remember the threat of nuclear war. Putin is former KGB and apparently excelled in his work. He is doing what he believes in, and he has excelled in his position as the leader of Russia. He wants the old USSR back. That would be very bad news for any and all democracies around the world.
So far I like him
Better than I thought I would.
sunglasses with an eye patch. Feels like a hat on a hat.
This I can respect …. As long as it’s not another game.
The RARE Earth 1 republican 😮
Mike Johnson needs to grow a pair, but don't tell matt schlapp the juggler
Mike Johnson shows that he is stronger than DJT. 👏👍
He could be and should be. He is currently in office. Rump no longer is.
Johnson might actually be a Christian. Regardless, he has done the political calculus.
Does the fact that Maga Johnson’s son is going to the Naval Academy, has anything to do with his change of heart in the Ukraine aid.
Apparently ‼️
Maybe.
I'm not holding my breath.
He changed his mind after meeting Trump; he was sickened by Trump's idiocy and character 🎉
Is Crazy Joe Scarborough having any more meltdowns?
Having his therapy dog next to him helps.
Does Johnson see the end of Trump?
I think this is smart for his survival as leader. He knows that if Republicans try to oust him, he will need Democrats to help him. This is a lesson that Kevin McCarthy didn't learn when he was facing a similar situation. So, he's seeing the bigger picture in terms of his own career.
They’ve suddenly realised they need the RINOS back
Rip uncle Bosie!
He got consumed.
Was that Joe Biden's uncle that got eaten by cannibals
Union endorsement means little. I was a teamster during BO’s admin. Most of my fellow teamsters in my chapter didn’t vote or support BO. Our chapter defied union leadership and openly supported conservative candidates including Trump in 16. Leadership didn’t like it but they couldn’t do anything. Point is union members don’t have to follow along and many don’t despite what the leadership says.
Knowing Mike Johnson strange Portfolio and His Many horrific stance on America, it seems losing the Speakership has finally hit home with Him. Hopefully, He will have a Real come to Jesus Intervention.
“A rank and file nobody” perfectly describes Mike Johnson

You can blame Biden for that one. This is unfortunately the new reality. Hopefully the SC overturns this but im not expecting them too.
It happens

When MSDNC talks good about some one they are doing wrong thing!
Maybe you're better off watching the lying channel, Faux Entertainment.
proud of you mike you did a good thing for your country
Johnson is straight from the Genesis era. At home he changes into Moses' linen robe, mule's hair underwear and dinosaur leather sandals.
So when the next 60 billion runs out then what? When Ukraine no longer has any fighting aged men? Then what?
They don't have a plan dude. Their uninformed comprehensively on the Russo-Ukrainian war and emotionally attached. As a veteran it's infuriating.
@@EuroMaidanWasAnInsurrection😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
BRAVOOO JOHNSON PUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLES FAMILIES FIRST. DEMS SUPPORT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FAMILIES WIN
he deserves zero credit, he had to be dragged kicking and screaming to allow a vote on that aid package
Susan nailed it! Well said! Two great guests.
Mike Johnson should be applauded for finally recognizing what America needs to do: Make the world safe for democracy. ❤
Crenshaw would probably be a good choice for their 2024 candidate if the party hadn't jumped the shark and gone full MAGA. He'd be a tough competitor for Biden.
Nope, he lied about his service.
I said this months ago and received nothing but negative replies from Trumpeteers.
Just to reiterate, I said that I didn't believe that in the whole of the United States of America, they couldn't find two young, patriotic people who genuinely wanted the best for everyone in the USA and would work together to sort out the country's problems and try to heal the damage Trump's done and lead the two main parties instead of two old men, I suggested Crenshaw then.
We live in dangerous times.
I pray that Trump doesn't have access to security briefings as what he knows Putin knows and the world is in danger because of it.
Biden may be old but Trump's a Russian agent.
As for the Republican Party, MTG, Gaetz, etc, Putin recruited them long ago but they still spout their anti-American bile and get away with it.
I’m thinking his turnaround is too late to save Ukraine.
But that does mean some of us can’t make a buck in the meantime.
Probably true, the betrayal and backstabbing that US stands for is truly sad. At least EU still believers in freedom and liberty, when US fails be strong.
I hope you're wrong.
@@ThePettho unfortunately the EU has abandoned western liberalism as well. Their restraints on free speech and privacy are dystopian…or Russian in their approach.
All my respect to Mike Johnson's courage! 👍
A rare instant of honor from a man I instantly didn't like when he gained this position. Johnson is showing true American Honor .Like Mike Pence on Jan 6th, a man that I also didn't like much. There are some who will not cross that line and sell their souls to Satan.
Did Uncle Bosie get ate or not ? Joetato says he did but the Army says he didn't.
I mean Joe said he was serious and not a joke and all that so.... 🥔

WARNING! WARNING! When MSNBC agrees with you, you know you're wrong!
Paging: Mike Johnson.... message for Mike Johnson.
Finally he has decided to take on the Wicked Witch of the West and the Wizard of Orange.
My friend asked me this question last night and I didn't have an answer. Why if someone kills a woman who is pregnant they are charged with two murders the woman and her baby? Please explain this to me too. I’m serious I need an answer so I can have a comeback. Any lawyers, or judges Shouldn’t they be charged with just one murder? Help.
Hey @monkeyboy, I hope you’re just being facetious! Just imagine when your mother was pregnant with you and your family was so happy you were on the way and someone purposely killed your mother wouldn’t your father and your family want our court system to aggressively prosecute the murderer? It’s not a political game, it’s just a personal decision.
Mike Johnsons constituents need to vote him out!!
lol the odds of that happening are ZERO! He is in a deep red district in a deep Red State.
This is reminiscent of the 1964 Civil Rights act where democratic majority needed Republican votes to pass the bill. William Mcullough in the House and Ev Dirksen in the Senate stepped up to get it done for America
Make
Accountability
Great
Again ! 💙
Yeah, not holding my breath on whether he keeps this path. As of late the Republicans have been known to switch their views based on what trump says and wants, like a new parent just wanting the baby to be quiet.
I am hoping that MTG does not think she is going to be the next Speaker of the House.
Viewed from outside, it is a remarkable turnaround by the Speaker. The question is, is it a genuine re-think on his part, or is it the result of Trump back peddling from alignment with the far right sector of the GOP. One would like to think that Mike Johnson is a genuinely good man who has rather suddenly discovered the wayward course of the MAGA faction and wants to make amends. One would certainly like to think so. It also raises the question as to the nature of the Mar - a - Laga small talk! Was it the taking of instructions, or was it the flexing of muscles. Johnso may very well have taken the gamble of his life, the facing down of Trump and the retention of the gavel on a more pragmatic basis. Whatever the position may be, it is very interesting.
This is by design 😆🤣😂
Apparently ‼️
Barksdale AFB is in Speaker Johnson's district
Thank you Mike.
I respect Johnson atleast he stood up to those conspiracy pusher in his party and did what was right
Funding too late not only reduces the benefit of the aid but also does not help our standing with allies. International relations are very intertwined and complicated and cannot be reduced to one on one transactions. In the world community, our America;s needs for various commodities, rare minerals, technologies come from so many different sources. Taking an America first policy, is like shooting yourself in the foot
He is just trying to not lose for GOP house republicans…so they don’t lose the house
This man has honor and faith.
Reagan would find all this incomprehensible.
Thousands of young Chinese men coming in freely. Wait to see what they're up to.
Maybe his recent trip to Maralardo opened his eyes
Thx..feels like " United" States🎉
He wrote P2025. He's temporarily usable and then into the dust bucket.
I rarely agree with ol'one eye.
Sure, NOW that mike got the message, with his son in the naval academy! ( getting a free education) HE,

Great reporting as always! But you could tone down that hyper promotion that comes at the end...
I'm sure his reasons are purely selfish.
Cancel Joey's blank check.
Let's think about the. In politics what make someone do 180 turn around? Usually 3 things.
Mike Johnson looking like the leader of the old/(hopefully)new GOP. 😮
He isn't going back to the days of such exemplar Republicans as Frank Church.
"His hard flank?" 😮😊
Why is is that you would even allow Russian sympathizers in our Congress at all!! How do we allow this. Drain the swamp
Finally some GQP members decided to do the right thing. This, of course, does not include MTG and other russian trolls.
