Jesus Johnson Can't Quit Lying About New Orleans Terrorist Attack
Someone needs to remind Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson that lying is a sin. Johnson made an appearance on Fox's Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo this weekend, and was asked by Bartiromo about the New Year's terrorist attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans.
As we already discussed here, the first thing Trump and Republicans like Johnson did following the attack was to lie that the United States' supposed "open borders" and undocumented migrants were to blame, even though the suspect is a 42-year old U.S. citizen from Texas.
Apparently that lie being debunked hasn't stopped Johnson from continuing to spread it, as he did again on Bartiromo's show in the segment above, while also using the incident as an excuse to demand Trump's dangerous unfit cabinet nominees are pushed through.
BARTIROMO: And Speaker, before you go, a word on New Orleans and now new worries over terrorism. Does that impact the agenda and what can you tell us about your constituents since this morning in New Orleans?
