Wonkette: Mike Johnson Is FREAKED By The Epstein Vote. So What's Really Up His Ass?

[sheshe2]

Last night, coming out of the state dinner Donald Trump threw for Prince Bonesaw bin-Murdertrash, House Speaker Mike Johnson was asked about what happened yesterday in the Senate, as the body swiftly moved the House’s discharge petition to force the release of the Epstein Files right on through with unanimous consent, sending the bill directly to Trump’s Big Mac TV tray for signing.

Friends, Johnson was shook. And he was mad. And the facial expressions from the weakest, most ineffective House speaker in American history were alone worth the price of admission. Shoot it directly into our veins!

But what’s Johnson so upset and lying about with this? Why is he grimacing like somebody just jizzed inside his biblical anti-masturbation software, which we are sure voids the warranty? And why’s he so mad at Chuck Schumer?

Yesterday in a press conference, Johnson said he was “confident” that Senate Majority Leader John Thune would allow amendments, in order to fix all his concerns with the discharge petition passed by the House. “I’m very confident that when this moves forward in process, if and when it is processed in the Senate — which is no certainty, that that will be — that they will take the time methodically to do what we have not been allowed to do in the House,” he whined. “Amend this discharge petition and to make sure these protections are there.”

After which Thune promptly made Johnson his bitch.

1. Wonder if he convinced Trump the Senate would return it to House thus more delay

Since Johnson said he expected the senate to mark-up the bill and return it to the house, I have to wonder if he expected their mark-up to take awhile, then once they sent it back, more delay due to Thanksgiving, so later and later it goes, and finally back to the senate, but when? So he voted yes for a bill he does not support? Wow, what a patriot. Just my best guess

2. Yup, looks like Grindr Mike and Agent Krasnov had a

secret plan to stall it in the Senate. And it blew up in their faces. SWEET!!!

[sheshe2]

3. You are exactly right, Lettuce Be.

[marble falls]

4. He made the mistake of actually believing he had a grip on it and it was all but done. He couldn't stop the House, ...

... and thought the Senate would balk so he could fix the order in reconciliation. Like Democrats did not see that lame scam coming.

The GOP didn't want to put their names on it so made it a joint resolution, anonymously. If that doesn't show how scared they are of both TACO and voters back home, nothing does.

7. He did Nazi that coming

[stopdiggin]

5. My take? Johnson is pissed because he and others fought a heroic rearguard action

(at the direction of 'Dear Leader'). And then got promptly, and publicly, knifed in the back by - Dear Leader.
Thus becoming the public face of humiliation and defeat ...
And the wimpy little cheese-d*ck weasel that he is.

It'd be enough to piss off any sycophant ass kisser !

6. It's not what but who?

8. "We have some guesses!"

9. Poor Mike, the Honorable whatever from looooosiana

Everybody’s making him their bitch, and apparently he’s got something up his ass.

[Initech]

10. Fox News. He's Rupert Murdoch's puppet.

[Boo1]

11. He's probably worried about his speakership

He couldn't keep his caucus in line and neither could his ally Trump. Given that he's clearly opposed by a group with some power within his party and it just became a lot easier to walk over to that side.

Thune passed that thing through the Senate as fast as he could because he didn't want his name anywhere near it.

12. For some mysterious reason, perverts just wanna keep perving.

Boy they're determined.

13. "Protections" For Whom?!

Looks like his "confidence" was Shattered.

Lawrence O'Donnel was very happy with Leader Schumer last night.

TY, she

[sheshe2]

14. "Protections" for me and not for thee.

Mahalo, Cha.

15. "Thune denies Johnson's demand for Epstein bill changes"

Nice headline... Hope they're not pulling some kind of Fast one.

Snip****

Speaker Mike Johnson said he voted for the Jeffrey Epstein disclosure bill Tuesday based on his hope that the Senate would make changes he’s been demanding. Senate Majority Leader John Thune shot that down.

Thune said Tuesday evening that, while he had talked with the speaker about the bill, he and Senate GOP legal counsel decided the legislation was “sufficient.” The Senate effectively approved the legislation by unanimous consent mere hours after House passage Tuesday afternoon without provisions sought by Johnson, including additional victim and whistleblower name protections.

Snip****

Asked if he would press Trump to veto the bill if the Senate didn’t amend it, Johnson said he would “cross that bridge” if necessary. He also raised “national security” concerns about the bill Tuesday.

16. I just read tsf signed the bill.

I guess Bondi finished the redactions. We will soon see if he is even mentioned once.

[Cha]

17. Precisely. I read it just after I

finished that post.

Of course just as we Suspected when Traitor Took a Sharp 180 Turn and wanted them Released. Traitor Miller and Bondi had a new Plan..

Doctor the Files and call out to Release the Files.. Maybe no one will notice the Depths Pedo Rapist went to in order to Keep them HIDDEN

[sheshe2]

18. Soon we shall see. 🤔

I think the original plan that Mikie and friends wanted was the Senate revisions so that it would bounce back and forth between Senate and House to debate ad nauseum.

[Cha]

19. That's sounds exactly like them..

Yes, That was then...

Now we Know that if Traitor's name is in the files in any capacity.. he would not sign it.
