Mike Johnson re-rlected as US House Speaker

Mike Johnson election news

Mike Johnson was re-elected as Speaker of the House on Friday in a decisive first-round vote, securing broad Republican support despite prior internal tensions.

His re-election comes after some conservatives, including Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and members of the House Freedom Caucus, voiced objections over Johnson’s leadership on key issues like government funding.

Massie, who strongly opposed Johnson, made fiery remarks ahead of the vote but ultimately could not derail the process.

“You can pull all my fingernails out, you can shove bamboo up in them, you can start cutting off my fingers.”

“I am not voting for Mike Johnson tomorrow, and you can take that to the bank,” Massie said prior to the vote.

Johnson’s allies warned that prolonging the speaker battle could delay the certification of President-elect Donald Trump’s upcoming term.

Trump himself publicly endorsed Johnson, calling his leadership a “crucial victory” for the GOP.

Johnson, who first claimed the gavel in October 2023 following Kevin McCarthy’s ouster, begins his first full term with calls for party unity and a commitment to advancing Trump’s “America First” agenda.

  1. Mike Johnson- a Masonic Deep State ‘Yes-Man’ who is actually converted to being a RINO under Deep State threats!
    He may have come into office with good intentions, BUT-
    Just after he was appointed ‘Speaker of the House’, he was called in to a closed-door meeting and read the Deep State edicts and the ‘riot act’, in which the Deep State threatened Johnson with having child porn dumped into his computers, as experienced by several others who opposed the RINO Deep State players if they resisted the Deep State plans run by the Mossad, CIA, DIA, FBI and *Nutanyahu (*real J3wi$h name; Mielkowski).
