Mike Johnson decries political violence after Charlie Kirk shooting. www.politico.com/live-updates...
Did Mike Johnson decry political violence when the Minnesota Senator and her husband were killed?
Where was he when Democrats were murdered? This man is a fraud.
Your day's coming insurrectionist Mike Johnson along with the rest of the co-conspirators don't start a f****** war and expect people not to fight back. We are at civil war
It's not who we are but it is exactly who he is.
Oh does Utah have open carry laws? Go figure.
No they have CONCEALED carry laws
OK thanks for telling me.
Yeah fuck all the way off Mike! You all lied and laughed at Paul Pelosi getting bludgeoned with a hammer by a MAGA supporter. Kirk spewed his hate everywhere. It's not forgotten because he died.
It's exactly who you are
Ever heard of a couple of assassinations in Minnesota, that went completely unnoticed. Ya, that’s what Jesus would do, you wretched and hateful POS.
It is who we are, unfortunately.
Trump gets seasoned FBI fired and selects Patel- who is clueless about how the process of investigation work. So what we get is amateurish and wrong every time. Two big mistakes on 1 horrible event.
I didn't like the guy's message or attitude, but he didn't deserve to die over his views and message. Violence doesn't achieve anything aside from inflaming the other side and making them react stupidly.
He was perfectly fine fanning the flames until today.
Too bad he’s not as concerned over the death of House Speaker Melissa Hortman or all the hundreds of innocent children!!!! 👎🤬🤬🤬🤬👿
Oh fuck off you are literally having ICE go to Democratic events. Fuck off with this BS to pretend care now. Democrats you need to stop this doormat shit now. This is what is going to happen they are going to blame 'the left'. You will sit there and cower and say: 'Let's all tone down'. Then /1
dear leader will send in ICE TO MORE PLACES while you fucking do this 'let's pretend the right is now compromising with us'. dear leader had a pretend shooting around this time last year to do this same shit. Don't let up on Epstein or your duties to the people for this right wing pundit.
"This is not who we are" Also: "I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023
Fuck all the way off, little Mikey. This is you and your party's doing.
Yes, it is who we are or there would be no need to say that. He should look in a mirror and ask how we got here instead!
They did nothing of the sorry when the Democrat rep and her husband were killed in Minnesota other than use the opportunity to call our governor "whacked out". Fuck Mike Johnson. Fuck MAGA. Fuck the high road.
Sorry Johnson, you don’t get to decry violence when it’s against one of your groupies while championing “political”violence against thousands in the country, by the very government that you are part of & help making it happen!
Well since MIKE said it......then it will magically disappear.
Don’t be distracted… Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein Epstein… Hundreds young girls abused :/
Unless it's Democrats getting murdered then you're okay with that
Sadly it is who we are. Thanks to guns + extremists.
That‘s rich Lil Mikey. Jan 6th?
$10 says maga set up Kirk to take the fall so they can try to start the civil war they want, and everyone forgets about epstein. Look for more shootings.
It certainly is who you are. MAGA threatens everyday. The Republican Party in Congress has given their authority to a madman criminal bent on eviserating the govt & institutions of the United States. What else is ICE raids & federal troops in US cities if not unconstitutional political violence?
Hey Fuckwit, it’s EXACTLY who YOU are‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
As soon as one of their own dies, they denounce violence. When Pelosi's husband was attacked, they laughed. Fucking hypocrites.
Exactly. Also all the children lost.
Only the best people 🤮
Yeah. Sick.
Isn't this the asshole that said protestors should get beat?
Karma is very real. STFU Johnson.
This is what you become.
This is exactly who he is.
But it is who we are, isn't it Mike. Schools, malls, even in their own homes...
What does he call the politically motivated violence we witness every day by masked thugs carrying out orders of his political party
The death of Charlie Kirk and other Nazi Republicans who will follow him is intended to demoralize and terrify them. Nazi Trump will be defeated by his own tactics.
It's precisely the violence and hatred that Nazi Trump and his fascist Republicans have always wanted. Charlie Kirk was the first victim, and more Nazi Republicans will follow, including from the ranks of GOP.
No Mike, this is EXACTLY who you are.
Maybe his party should do something about guns.
Reap what you sow
And another one who stirs the pot with conspiracy theories, and encourages the nuttiness and the craziness
As long as it's one of his subordinates
Yet republicans support the pardons for the Jan 6 insurrectionists and the guy that instigated them, Donnie Dipshit.
It’s exactly who we are.
This is exactly who we are now
Yes, it is exactly who and what people have become. The haters and the deliberate division of a nation are the cause.
Why didn’t he do so after Trump pardoned the insurrectionists who committed murder in DC?
So he was able to take his tongue out of the 🍊 fck's ass to make a statement?
We're the prayers ? So this stops. Hmmm, I guess it didn't work like always.
Of course it's who they are!! They have inflicted physical and emotional violence on too many American citizens...
If only Mike Johnson was in a position of power to do something about our problem with gun violence… oh wait.
Oh yes it is.
The Republican Party is all about Charlie Kirk shooting. This is the kind of country they have created.
It's also the kind of country they want.
It’s exactly who you are.
This is exactly who we are.
That’s exactly who they are.
No? Using the military against civilians? No, definitely not who America is 🤦🏻♂️
Maybe that fake christian should talk to his dear leader and tell him to tone down the rhetoric!
Is he sending thoughts and prayers?
Did he say this after Melissa Worthman's assassination?
Pretty much. Although that time he didn't make a public statement until directly asked about it by the press. www.reuters.com/world/us/rea...
Hey Mike Johnson, is taking away healthcare from kids political violence ? What about taking away school lunches from poor kids ? How about requiring 10 year old girls to carry their rapist father's child to term ?
How long until he spoke out about the murder of democrats in Minnesota?
Listen man, I hate Mike Johnsons pedo ass as much as the next guy, but he did put out essentially thr same statement the same day back then www.reuters.com/world/us/rea...
Condemning violence is one thing, but he has the power to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
True he could push the issue in the house, but instead he be pushing those prayers
Unless it's against the people we don't like... right, Mikey?
Hypocrite
the liberals next protest is going to be a hoot
I had no doubt that this murder would be used by Trump and his gang in political shit. Just like the murder of Iryna Zarutskaya. How did a country of freedom and democracy turn into this disgrace? Or was it always like this?
This is EXACTLY who we are
It's exactly who we are.
This is exactly who they are. Charlie Kirk encouraged gun violence and he died by his own sword. I do not advocate violence nor am I celebrating his death. I am saying that he brought about his own end by pushing for gun freedom.
Who Johnson is, is even worse.
But it IS who we've become because republicans respond like this instead of "We must take measures to curb unfettered access to guns and ammo. Open carry must end." Otherwise it's al BS
MiKKKe is okay with it when the victims are opponents. He supported KKKirk's incitement of violence.
A word to Lil Mikey- this IS who too many are and the hateful rhetoric from your camp, as well as your ammosexuals fetish over guns, gives license for this kind of event.
That's exactly what your country is: violent, bloodthirsty, murderous with lots of guns.
I wish the politicians would decry school shootings the way they do figures who line up with their political beliefs.
And the is another one TODAY in Colorado with 3 students in critical condition hasn’t.
We don't have all the facts yet. No police fired guns. One of the injured is the shooter. It's very sad. Same district as Columbine. My district for 30 years. They do a very good job at prevention now. But you can't prevent everything. Not with guns available everywhere.
You act like they don't. You must not be paying attention to any MSM outside a leftist view.
I actually watch all media. The rhetoric surrounding this is far different than what’s said after pretty much every school shooting in recent memory. Not hearing a lot of “thoughts & prayers” on the right at the moment. To be clear, I don’t condone any act of violence and this one is unacceptable.
"Thoughts and prayers" are utterly meaningless. If those in the pockets of the NRA ceased their arselicking the USA would be a safer place.
Oh, yeah, thoughts and prayers. Who could forget? Nothing like what many of them are spouting now. And your rhetoric on the "leftist view" says all that needs to be said.
🤔🤔🤔but he was okay with it before ?? Jackass
Ahhh fuck off Mike. Your boss released people who tried to hold a coup for him... You know political violence... And you pro Pedo so seriously fuck off
Where was this concern when Democrats in Minnesota were killed and targeted by a right-wing assailant?
how convenient when it’s one of yours. F everyone else tho!
You didn't see him do that when people were gunned down in their homes by some MAGAt in Illinois.
Johnson and the GOP certainly set a different tone when it's a Republican that was shot instead of Democrats, or a Democrat's husband. Where was this compassion before?
Thoughts and prayers and KARMA is a BITCH… 1 less Nazi Asshole
Sure was "who we are" when they tried to burn Shapiro and his family to death inside their home. No "coming together" after the Hortman's were killed and the Hoffman's were shot. Certainly was "who we are" when Pelosi was attacked. When was it decided "this is not who we are"? Lest we forget...
To be clear. This is horrible and I hate it, but we've been getting attacked for a while now and much of it can be laid at the Republican's feet due to all their rhetoric over the years. I mourn for us all.
Not who we are, but definitely what we’re becoming. The rhetoric is getting more inflammatory which leads to the very political violence to which he speaks. Already we’ve heard declarations of “war” by Fox News. It’s almost as if one side is edging us closer to unspeakable acts.
not GUN violence though
Did the Speaker or POTUS make similar comments when Rep. Melissa Hortman, a Minnesota Democrat and leader of the state House Democratic caucus, was assassinated?
Thoughts and prayers Mike? Does Kirk get the usual MAGAt byline of thoughts and prayers?? We know you won't do anything even if he was one of your own.
Yes it is, #MikeJohnson. Cuz you won’t stop the violence with sensible gun laws.
This is exactly who you are.
Did he decry it after the two MN Dems were shot and killed in their homes?
Sorry, Mike, it’s exactly who you are. How about some thoughts and prayers. That’ll fix it.
"This is not who we are" is the lamest, most dishonest response to an atrocity by "one of us" out there. Who are you, Mike Johnson? You abetted our Felon in Chief in his attempt to overthrow our government. Is THAT who "we" are? Not me. Who are "we" exactly, motherfucker?
Heckuva job Mikey. Well done.
Of course this is how we are as Americans. We demonstrate that over and over again every single year. It is what it is 🤷
Kirk’s killing wipes school shooting in CO out of our consciousness like it never happened.The Right is losing its fucking mind without a hint of self awareness about a Democratic lawmaker&her husband’s assassination in MN some weeks ago!Been more political violence from the Right than Left recently
No #whoYOUare is a petty little #trump #troll #mike that would set violence to our #immigrants and in our cities !!! Fuck #racist #maga #ice And #magaMike
"This is not who we are."-Mike Johnson This is *exactly* who you are! Trump and his minions like you have provoked #StochasticTerrorism, and then you all act surprised when you discover "your team" can also be a target?!? What did you expect in a country rife with hatred & more guns than empathy??
When it suits them. Eye roll.
Oh, YES. This is who we R. The things u & others R willing 2 say & do confirms it. Nothing should result in assassination. Hopelessness, however, can push extremism. So, OWN IT. Kids being killed, people being rounded up & imprisoned, limited healthcare and nutrition IS THE PLAN. Man up!
Wait, is he lying again, or is he being honest this time? It would be a lot easier if he would tell us ahead of time
So I guess Republican lawmakers and social media influencers will now be demanding personal security. My advise to them if they want to save money is to stay indoors and keep their mouth shut at all times.
Here comes the calls for Martial Law
This could be a 2 birds with one stone moment, if he does use it as an excuse to declare…I can’t vouch for authenticity because it was supposedly deleted, but…
Why??? This was probably not even a liberal who did this? It very rarely is! WTF?!!!
Not possible, liberals aren't ALLOWED to live in Utah
Not according to MAGA
They are relentless in blaming the wrong people. It’ll will never end.
The stupid is strong
Yeah it is. Tragically so.
Tragically Dip
The request for toning down the political rhetoric must start with the President. He is the cause for this upheaval among the public with is prejudice revenge!!!
They were/are looking for a reason.
Really? But Democratic politicians are expendable!
Wtf else can you call it
T&P ...fuckers
How about the school shooting in Colorado?
Crickets months ago with the murders of representatives, but now crying out. Shameless.
Violence comes only from one side- the extreme right but, good luck with that... Your country is a total shithole
Does he decry the violence that resulted in shooting deaths in Colorado?
Charlie said: " I think empathy made up, new age term, that does a lot of harm". So, hey Charlie, FAFO
Sure is
Now would be a good time to denounce the killings of Melissa Hortman and her husband too. Unless Mike is a giant piece of shit, which he is.
Now do Paul Pelosi.
MAGA Mike a true hypocrite's, hypocrite.
That’s rich coming from this guy
I find the political phrase "This is not who we are" infuriating. This is clearly and demonstrably who we are in this moment of history. Let's work toward changing it instead of denying it.
This is exactly who you are a country in decline whose every answer to every dispute is a firearm you have proven it over and over even kids dont get a break from your stupid fking 2nd amendment right save your Christian bullshit no ones buying it 🙄
I agree with the sentiment decrying political violence. I condemn all violence. But the practically daily mass shootings and terrorizing political violence indicates this is exactly who we are.
bsky.app/profile/josh...
Good point
Will this really be a turning point?
I'm willing to bet that when the shooter is found, he'll be someone with mental health problems who should never have had access to a firearm. This is not an attempt to slander the many folks with issues who don't pick up a gun. There should be no political exploitation until more facts are known.
Maga only cries about political violence in America when it affects them, if democrats are killed they celebrate. So cry me a river, that’s where we are, unfortunately
Yes. It is who y’all are.
.....it is exactly who YOU are........
Sorry, but this is exactly who you are and you, like Kirk, are partly responsible for it. Hope you are next, you sniveling hypocrite.
It is exactly who you are. You have someone like Charlie Kirk who constantly preaches hate, plus MAGA keeps taking away more more from us. Something was bound to happen.
Seriously. Remember Jan6th . An angry mob your President brought to Washington to attack the Capitol, killed three police officers and urged his proud boys to hang the vice President. Remember Sandy Hook first graders and teachers salughter by gun fire..this is exactly who we are-stuff it Johnson
This is exactly Who You Are !
FUCK JOHNSON
The last decade says otherwise.
If you sow hate, you get hate back. Who is next, Trump or Vance?
Irony of your statement. Hopefully it will be you.
Do you think wishing something on somebody else doesn’t count? Lol
Um, yeah .. If their statement was "ironic" then yours was doubly so. Not to mention, also laughably lacking in any self-awareness.
You just came here for the 'tears' huh? Or do you just like making death threats to strangers?
Just expressing heartfelt joy.
An amazing situation. Who proved their point?
Well today he got the opportunity to support his own view.
Yep.
And he would even if he lived.
Opps!
👍👍
Charlie is dead
No, this is exactly who we are and why? because of morons like you Mike Johnson who won't do anything about gun control in this damn country
Charlie Kirk “I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.” 2023 TPUSA event.
Did he cry, the violence in Minnesota when there was lawmakers were murdered along with family members and pets? I never heard Trump or Johnson speak about that.
It’s EXACTLY who “we” are, you gibbering clown!
Johnson is a guy too deep in his bs about FBI informant nonsense he needs a change of story.
This post is about two people that have zero compassion for others and the truth.
Who gives a shit.
It didn't matter to them until now.
/yawn Guy who denies women’s right to choose decries political violence…
Crocodile tears. The perpetrator playing victim. Republicans reap what they sow. You don’t sow oppression hate and violence without eventually getting push back. Cause and effect.
of course it's who you are, more than 80 gun related deaths a day and basically year round open season on your school children.
Oh now, but when children are shot it’s crickets
Hey Mike Johnson-- yes it is.
Not a peep when Democratic politicians are assaulted but heaven forbid a MAGA is the victim 😒🎻
Pretty rich coming from someone supporting this administration TBH.

Oct. 2022
Leader Kevin McCarthy stated that he would reward Greene with a much more prominent role in party leadership “I think that to be the best speaker of the House and to please the base, (McCarthy) is going to give me a lot of power and a lot of leeway,” Greene predicted in an NY Times interview.
Then....
In June 2025, House Speaker Mike Johnson said that California Governor Gavin Newsom "ought to be tarred and feathered". Johnson's comments were made in response to Newsom's handling of protests in Los Angeles related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions.
NRA: "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." He's one of those people nudging other people to kill people. "Common limitations or boundaries to freedom of speech relate to sedition, incitement, hate speech, public security, etc."
"Justifications for such include the harm principle, proposed by John Stuart Mill in On Liberty, which suggests that 'the only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others' "
. Mike Johnson, credibility ZERO.
It all depends on who's dying
Amazing how quick they respond when it’s not a bunch of school kids shot.
Like the school shooting in Denver today? Don’t hear a peep.
How about more gun control?
Honestly... I think that's what this was done for. They're wildly unpopular, and needed "a radical leftist" act of violence to justify some sweeping gun-grab. Trump's never been about guns. He's always wanted to take them because that's what dictators do. "Take the guns first; due process later."
"not who we are" um kinda seems likle it is
6abc.com/post/colorad...
Au contraire Johnson: this is precisely what you are
Better send in the national guard to Utah!
Invited the violence
Again, is Charlie Kirk a politician?
Did he decry the political violence that was done to Nancy Pelosi’s husband?
What better way to distract from the epstein files and the absolute disaster of a presidency
Anyone else hearing what WASN'T said by a majority of the GOP when Melissa and Mark Hortman were murdered? Striking isn't it, the horror and condemnation coming from Democrats now. Striking because that's how decent people react and how fascists don't! They wanted to intimidate and threaten critics.
Mike Johnson can go F his lying ass, pedophile protecting self. They don't give a F.
I dunno - lot of your colleagues like to wear gun pins, so that's who some folks are.
Add "United States History" to all the things Mike Johnson does not know.
But not kids getting shot. Cool.
Did little Johnson mention the kids in Colorado who were also shot today?
Mr. Speaker, this is exactly who you are and you prove it by making these ridiculous claims.
Wait but you didn’t give a care when Melissa and her husband and their sweet dog were assassinated Mike? Please stop holding us hostage to gun violence.
It is exactly who you are and Kirk knew it. www.newsweek.com/charlie-kirk...
Odd he should condemn that and not the shooting of two democratic lawmakers in Minnesota but I’m sure that slipped his mind…..no, no, can’t leave it at that, partisan f*&ker
Yes, it is exactly who we are. And have been for decades. JFK, Jack Ruby, Harvey Milk, MLK, RFK, Wallace (was not killed, but paralyzed), editor of Hustler magazine whose name escapes me (paralyzed), recent assassinations in MO, ... Just off the top of my head.
Larry Flynt, by a racist fanatic
Thank you. Could not remember his name.
Larry Flint
Incomplete thought....Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey Oswald.
Ooops, wrong abbreviation. MN is Minnesota, MO is Missouri. Sorry.
This is exactly who we are. 😔
Hmmm, who stormed the capital Mike?
👆
It is not who we should be.
#MikeJohnson #GOP This IS WHO YOU WANT US TO BE! Fuck your lying fascist theocratic ass!
Might I remind Spkr Johnson that Kirk publicly stated that if regular school shootings were the price of protecting the Second Amendment, it was worth it.
Epstein Files
