The implication is that Mike J (Johnson) is performing the lyric, not Mike D.

That being tossed in at the very end is tantamount to an insurance qualification, sort of like the universally known “not that there’s anything wrong with that.” I don’t think it’s unreasonable to assume the true sentiment is the one you led with.

The sentiment I led with is also correct. What I said is, "we all know both sides are guilty of all sorts of malfeasance". (I am not singling out Johnson here, but the Republican party as a whole, thereby justifying the need to investigate everyone and IF anyone has been committing fraud, they need to go to jail).

It sounds to me like you don't want Republicans or Mike Johnson investigated for fraud.

Not the case at all, and I’m not sure why it even has to go there. That’s actually akin to the same tone and approach I was referring to in the first place.

And this is where the right diverges from the left.

Hey! Lookie there. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence!

Look here! Not here!

Again, kinda convenient timing that the GOP leaders have FEC complaints filed against them at the same time as the Liberal fraud across the country is being exposed.

If he’s guilt? Hang him.

Also, why can’t the GOP do this? Why can’t they use the same tactics?

How much did Ilan Omar’s net worth increase? 66,700%? Might wanna look into that one while you’re at it.

This isn’t about party any longer. If he’s guilty, put him in jail.

This is the same scheme set up under Actblue. These parties are stealing taxpayer dollars and smurfing them back into their coffers to fight to retain power. Evil bastards.

In my years of following politics on tPT, I have learned that "smurfing" and "ratfricking" are actual political terms. I love this place. But I hate it too.

I don't care if it's Johnson or Omar or McTurtle or Miss Lindsey or Eric Swallowswell. They're all corrupt swamp creatures that have been fleecing us for decades. There aren't many Tim Burchetts in leadership roles.

This is being done to put Republican Congressmen on notice. Don’t investigate the Democrat corruption or the Democrats are going to take you down too.

Do it. Anyone committing fraud should suffer the consequences. I won’t defend any of them.

It’s really not so much a right/left thing for me anymore.

I’m tired of paying a small fortune in taxes only to have the grifters on all sides up there in DC piss down my back and then tell me it’s raining.

I mean, frick. ENOUGH.

If that’s the case, the exact same tactic should be used against Democrats in Congress. Tit for tat. Give the whole system a gigantic enema.
