Mike Johnson

Speaker Mike Johnson has said he wants to target 'waste and abuse.'

I want to target waste and abuse.

Investigate the sources of these attacks

I got the President Trump dial and now I have -- now I have the Elon dial, okay, because Elon has the largest platform in the world, literally.

I certainly hope that there are enough Democrats in the Senate who have a conscience who will do the right thing by the American people and take care of business over there.

This guy apparently was a mastermind... If you are on a student visa and you’re in America and you’re an aspiring young terrorist who wants to prey upon your Jewish classmates, you’re going home.

Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., who shepherded the bill through the House, took a victory lap after the vote, saying that House Republicans "stood together" with one Democrat to keep the government's lights on.

Look, I’m in the incumbent protection program here. I consider Thomas Massie a friend. He’s a thoughtful guy. I guess he’ll tell you he’s doing what he thinks is right on this. I just vehemently disagree.

We can do it on our own.

He must determine whether he wants to fund the government and do the responsible thing or he wants to shut the government down.

House Republicans stood together with one Democrat to keep the government's lights on.

We're going to pass the CR.

I think this will serve students, parents, teachers, administrators better to have that down at the local level.

No one wants to shut the government down, and we are governing, doing the responsible thing as Republicans.

The United States is transitioning from Bidenomics and the terrible economy that was delivered by the last administration.

The responsible thing is to keep the government funded.

What we are going to do is go into those programs and carve out the fraud, waste and abuse, and find efficiencies.

We want to root out fraud and waste in the program.

We’ll see if there are grown up Democrats in the Senate.

All this attention is being paid to Medicaid because that’s the Democrats’ talking point.

Viral videos showing constituents upset with Republicans during their town halls were of paid protesters or of Democrats who went to the events early and filled up the seats.

It doesn’t even mention Medicaid in the bill.

What he’s finding with his algorithms crawling through the data of Social Security system is enormous amounts of fraud, waste and abuse.

He deliberately violated House rules, and an expeditious vote of censure is an appropriate remedy.
