This honestly seems sketchy. Everyone has a price, but $95,000 seems a tad low to sell your soul.
The kind of nonsense that we know exists in congress involves 6 and 7 figures… not 5

BREAKING: House Speaker Mike Johnson allegedly received a $95,000 payment from a foreign lobby group shortly after the passing of the $14.5 billion military aid package late last year, according to FEC report.
Not to mention that it could be completely unrelated. Temporal precedence is irrelevant to the potential correlation between the payment and the aid package. What happened today is also "after the passing of the $14.5b military aid package last year."
Bribing...sorry, "lobbying"...Congressmen happens for sure, but I'm sure they're smart enough not to cut a check so soon after that it raises flags. That would be about as dumb as putting "for passing the aid package" in the memo line.
They're all crooks. Mike Johnson is probably a crook. But this isn't some smoking gun evidence of a payoff (absent further information).
