Republicans in Congress are putting our elections at risk with the latest spending bill, joining the Democrats to keep the government funded and abandoning a bill to protect voter integrity. One America’s Pearson Sharp explains.

As an investigative reporter, I try to be fair and balanced in my approach to the news.

You have to have an objective viewpoint, you have to look at all the facts and just present what you find, no matter what it is.

Well, objectively speaking, it’s hard to think of anyone who has betrayed our country as deeply or as often as House Speaker Mike Johnson.

You expect Democrats to betray us, that’s what their party stands for—they hate America.

But Republicans like Johnson are supposed to be pro-American, they’re supposed to represent the people.

And yet Mike Johnson has rushed head first from one betrayal to the next, cutting deals with Democrats and stabbing small-town America in the back… every single chance he gets.

And now, he’s done it again.

To avoid a government shutdown at the start of October, Johnson is pushing a stopgap funding bill to keep Washington open through December.

True to his stripes as a deep state operative, Johnson is backing the bill without any support for the SAVE act.

If you don’t know what that is, it’s legislation that would require proof of US citizenship to register to vote.

Basically, it’s a last-ditch effort to try and make sure that the only people voting in American elections are American.

And good ol’ Judas Johnson has made it clear he wants no part of safeguarding America’s elections, and wants to move forward without the SAVE act.

His argument is that it wouldn’t be a good look for the Republicans to let the government shutdown just weeks before an election.

But the alternative is destroying our election integrity just to make sure some useless paper-pushing bureaucrats keep getting paid.

Basically, Johnson is selling out the entire country, just to save face.

Imagine having the opportunity to pass a bullet-proof bill to protect our voting integrity and saying “nah, forget it, I’m siding with the Democrats.”

Because that’s what Mike Johnson is doing—he’s siding with the Democrats.

Again.

“Once he became speaker, he became a man that none of us recognize. He pass three continuing resolutions, and then he passed a two-part omnibus that fully-funded Joe Biden’s agenda, and the Democrat agenda… Americans were raging at Mike Johnson, and he doubled down, he didn’t change course, he continued… Mike Johnson is not capable of that job, he has proven it over and over again. Now we have Hakim Jeffries and the Democrats coming out, embracing Mike Johnson with a warm hug and a big, wet, sloppy kiss. And they are ready, they have endorsed him, they are ready to support him as speaker, they want to keep it going, keep the band together, why? Because Mike Johnson is giving them everything they want.”

Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social, quote, “If Republicans in the House, and Senate, don’t get absolute assurances on Election Security, THEY SHOULD, IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM, GO FORWARD WITH A CONTINUING RESOLUTION.”

And Trump is absolutely right—this is our one bargaining chip to bring Democrats to the table, to make them realize we’re serious about election security.

The fact that Democrats—and Republicans! Are opposed to a bill that mandates that only Americans vote in our elections tells you everything you need to know about their intentions.

With this bill, Johnson’s name will go down in history, along with Benedict Arnold, as one of the worst traitors our nation has ever seen.

From now on, any time a person stabs someone in the back, we can say wow, he’s a real Mike Johnson.

Marjorie Taylor Greene called Johnson out for his betrayal, warning that Republicans in Congress have totally lost respect for the speaker over his cowardice.

Neither Republicans nor Democrats—especially Democrats—have any interesting in making sure it’s only Americans voting in our elections, and we all know why.

In fact Biden’s DOJ is threatening election offices by claiming that “cleaning up voter rolls may be discriminatory.”

They don’t want the rolls cleaned!

They want as many dead and illegal voters on these rolls as possible, that’s the only way to keep the deep state in power.

Millions of illegal and ineligible voters have already been removed from voter rolls across the country this year, and that’s a *big blow to the Democrats and neocons, they have to stop that.

That’s why Biden has so vehemently opposed the SAVE Act, and now he’s got Mike Johnson going along with him, ensuring that this next election will be the least transparent and most corrupt in history.

What does it tell you when all the democrats have come out in full support of Mike Johnson giving him their glowing endorsement—the Democrats love him, they want him to stay in power, because for them, it’s the best of both worlds.

A republican who does whatever the Democrats want.

Oh and by the way—now Mike Johnson is promising there’s no way he’ll pass another omnibus spending bill.

Of course, that’s after he said he wouldn’t pass an omnibus spending bill last year… and then signed his name onto one of the biggest omnibus spending bills in American history.

I wonder what’s going to happen this time. For One America News, I’m Pearson Sharp.
