Mike Johnson

If President Biden wants a supplemental spending bill focused on national security, it better begin by defending America's national security.

House Speaker Mike Johnson today cornered both literally and figuratively by right members, far-right members of his conference.

I'm operating with the smallest margin in U.S. history. The only way to get a rule on the floor is that it requires a couple of Democrats.

If I operated out of fear over a motion to vacate, I would never be able to do my job. Look, history judges us for what we do. This is a critical time right now.

Look, we know what the timetable is. We know the urgency in Ukraine and in Israel. And we are going to stand by Israel, our close ally and dear friend, and we are going to stand for freedom and make sure that Vladimir Putin doesn't march…

I regard myself as a wartime speaker.

It is not helpful to the cause. It is not helpful to the country. We need steady leadership.

I am not resigning and it is -- it is in my view an absurd notion that someone would bring a vacate motion when we are simply here trying to do our jobs.

I am not resigning. It does not help the House Republicans advance or agenda.

But I think all of us know intuitively that they were -- there was a lot of amiss about this election day.

There's so many millions of illegals in the country, that if only one out of 100 voted, they would cast potentially hundreds of thousands of votes in the election. That could turn an election.

The House Republicans are introducing a bill that will require proof of citizenship to vote. It seems like common sense. I'm sure all of us would agree. We only want U.S. citizens to vote in U.S. elections, but there are some Democrats who…

The Constitution was clearly violated in the 2020 election.

It would be chaos in the House.

This is not only highly inappropriate, it's just plain wrong for an American leader to play such a divisive role in Israeli politics while our closest ally in the region is in an existential battle for its very survival.

I understand this acutely — it directly affects my people. We’re going to be very careful not to cut a benefit for anyone who is eligible to receive it and relies upon it.

The president has said repeatedly, we’re not going to hurt Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid recipients who are eligible for it.

We must be clear that Putin will be met with united opposition.

We should be 'united' against Putin.

Vladimir Putin is a vicious dictator and the world knows he is likely directly responsible for the sudden death of his most prominent political opponent, Alexey Navalny. This is the latest attempt to send a message to those working to…

There is no cause for alarm right now.

On this vote, the yeas are 215 (ph) and the nays are 213. The resolution is adopted.

These facts require it. The House of Representatives has the constitutional responsibility of impeachment, and that begins with the investigation.

The Constitution does not change. Impeachment power is probably the heaviest power that the House of Representatives is given in the Constitution.

Extreme times, desperate times call for desperate measures, and that's where we are.
