He also shares his porn browsing history with his son. And reviews his sons porn browsing history.
He claimed 0 assets. No stocks, no interest earning bank accounts, no mutual funds, no CDs. That’s awfully suspicious.
“Actually, the Speaker’s office told Marketplace that he does have a personal bank account, but it’s exempt from House reporting rules because it doesn’t earn interest.”
Lol
If you go to the bank that issued the check, they should cash it for free.
Some places pay cash, and some will pay in pre-paid debit cards. That’s not usually the case for the U.S. Gov’t, though!
No claimed assets + religious nutjob suggests to me that he gives all his income to some cult leader.
Is he not 3rd in line? Also there is a currently a member of congress being investigated because they claimed on their campaign finance forms to have loaned their campaign $350,000 despite not having a savings account. Pretty weird if you ask me
Biden is the president
Harris is first in line should Biden leave office
Johnson is second in line, behind Harris
3rd if you count the presidency itself.
Pres
Vp
Speaker
President pro tempore
The president is not in line though. His office is what the line is for, and he’s in it.
So you’re telling me that either Mike Johnson has a wad under his mattress, or is somehow the most based cryptobro in politics? Someone should… investigate… this.
Why would they investigate it? Either he has no money, and is telling the truth, or he “has no money” and will be happy to share his “nothing” to keep an investigation from happening.
It was stated elsewhere that he has
no interest earning bank accounts
So while most bank accounts do earn interest, apparently he has one which does not.
The investigation part of mine was more insinuation that he had a massive wad of money sitting relatively unsecured in his home.
…yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Maybe he’s got no money, or keeps it in a bank with no interest for some weird reason, but the more likely scenario is that he has a lot of money he doesn’t want to make public. If he’s got so much money that it benefits him more to keep it hidden than to let it publicly gain interest, then he’s going to be willing to hand some of it off to a corrupt public official to prevent an investigation.
If a real investigation were done, then there would be no reason for him to bribe anyone, which is the more important thing for the vast majority of the government, so they have no reason to do an investigation. I’d like them to, but my preferences aren’t going to matter to the guy who only took the job of an investigator for the bribery money. If anything, they’ll just do a sham investigation so that they can say “nope, nothing” while walking away with their pockets full of cash.
It’s been a long time since this country meaningfully punished a rich man for doing something wrong.
Looks like he is claiming that he doesn’t own anything:
