What I’ve learned about Mike Johnson, the new Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States of America, in the last 48 hours has thrilled me. And I want you to also be glad and hopeful for what Mike Johnson’s Christian leadership means for America.
Mike Johnson is likely to be the best speaker in your and my lifetime.
He’s not Kevin McCarthy’s “boy.” No, Johnson was the “stealth candidate” who almost wasn’t elected. Remember, the top three RINOs of “Team McCarthy” — Kevin McCarthy himself, McCarthy’s majority leader Steve Scalise, and McCarthy’s majority whip Tom Emmer — all crashed and burned due to conservative opposition.
After conservatives rejected Scalise, liberal Republicans, with McCarthy leading, killed the speaker candidacy of conservative constitutional champion Jim Jordan. Then, after Tom Emmer, the most liberal of the Republican nominees, was berated by conservatives upset with Emmer’s anti-family and unconstitutional votes and agendas (this went on for four straight hours, and eventually Emmer ended his candidacy), Republicans were left with the second-place voter-getter in that last round, which was Mike Johnson.
And that same evening, despite McCarthy still trying to sabotage Johnson’s ascendance to the speakership, in a spectacular moment, all the Republicans plotting to return McCarthy as speaker folded. By persevering, the conservatives had beaten the RINOs!
So, Mike Johnson is not part of the Swamp and is not a RINO. In this high-stakes “negotiation” between warring sides, Johnson only got elected because the RINOs eventually gave up due to strong opposition from moral conservatives and because McCarthy’s bad character was exposed.
Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is refreshingly different from the RINO speakers you’ve had to live under the last two decades!
On Johnson’s own website, he describes how he “spent nearly 20 years successfully litigating high profile constitutional law cases in district and appellate courts nationwide and is widely recognized as a leading defender of the right to life, religious liberty, free speech, the Second Amendment and free market principles.”
So there you have it:Mike Johnson is a family-values champion for our First Amendment rights. Add to this the fact that Johnson is a strong Christian believer who fears God, and you’ve got the most trustworthy kind of man in the world.
What’s more, he’s very concerned about election fraud. In 2020 in the House of Representatives, Johnson organized an amicus brief signed by 126 House Republicans, challenging the election results in four swing states purportedly won by Joe Biden.
Do you see how the Tyrannical, Immoral Left is viciously attacking him? Because of his conservative Christian values, Mike Johnson is good for you and is anathema to them.
PLEASE TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION
Mike Johnson needs spiritual protection from the enemy’s attacks. Please pray in Name of Jesus Christ asking God to send angels to protect Mike Johnson, his staff, and his family.
And urge Johnson to investigate election fraud, something McCarthy was loathe to do. A Republican subcommittee to investigate election fraud must be a top priority. Exposing election fraud as real will motivate more Republican state legislatures to write and pass bills to reform the election process, including eliminating widescale mail-in ballots.
Please call Mike Johnson’s Washington, DC office at 202-225-2777 to leave this message: “I’m calling to say I’m glad Mike Johnson is speaker, I’m praying for him, and I urge him to create an election fraud subcommittee to publicly expose this huge problem.”

Laphonza Butler, a top strategist on the Kamala Harris for President team, in 2019
Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom has announced his appointment to replace the late Dianne Feinstein. And even worse than Feinstein, Laphonza Butler brazenly embraces Newsom’s and Kamala Harris’ immoral agenda:
She’s a leading abortion activist: Butler is currently the head of Emily’s List, a wealthy, Democrat-run pro-abortion political group (Source), which opposes all baby killing restrictions, such as banning abortions when a pre-born baby’s heartbeat is confirmed. (Source)
She’s an “out” lesbian “married” to another woman:Butler and her “wife” are both “LGBTQIA+” activists. In 2020, Butler joined Airbnb as its director of public policy and campaigns , turning it hard against property owners with moral values (Source). Demonstrating she believes all the “LGBTQIA+” lies, Butler wrote last year, “And these are yet again, the same politicians who also don’t believe in science, who are attacking trans-youth and erasing the history of our country by banning books.” (Source)
She’s a former union boss who led revolts against small business owners and coerced millions in ‘dues’: “Butler served as president of Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 2015, the nation’s largest home care and nursing home workers union.” (Source) As the Freedom Foundation observed in 2018, “SEIU 2015 deducts a staggering 3 percent of the caregivers’ meager paychecks, which comes to more than $500 per year for many…When a caregiver tries to opt out of union membership, they are sent a 500-word form letter rejecting their request. The letter rambles on about the benefits of union membership and buries instructions on how to “properly” opt out during the annual 15-day escape period.” (Source)
She’s a racist: Butler was on the board of BlackPAC, which defines itself as “an independent, Black-led organization that uses the power of year-round political engagement and elections to change our economic, justice, and political systems…We’re holding our public officials accountable to a policy agenda that defends our rights, promotes dignity, and ends white supremacy.” (Source)
And she doesn’t even live California: “But according to a filing with the Federal Election Commission from September 2023, Butler doesn’t live in California, nor anywhere close to the state. Instead, it appears she lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, a Washington, DC suburb. Using the address listed in the FEC filing, it’s possible to find Butler’s voter registration in Maryland, which is as recent as September 2022 and classifies the Silver Spring address as her “residential” location.” (Source)
Ditch the smiles — Laphonza Butler will further “butcher” our children and our Constitution.
“And the attacks on our rights, the rights to make decisions about our body, the attacks on our voting rights — that is happening with governors and state legislators. And so EMILY’s List specifically is going to be focused on engaging and investing the resources to win at the state and local level so that these are cases that don’t wind their way to the courts.” Liberal activist extraordinaire Laphonza Butler in 2021

You’ve probably already heard that the ruling Democrats in the California State Senate on Wednesday passed 2 big anti-parent bills: AB 665 coercively emancipating 12-year-olds for any reason, and AB 957 discriminating against religious parents in child custody cases.
1. Because Democrat politicians actually oppose parents’ rights: With their votes and even their words — especially on the Assembly floor this year — Democrat Party legislators increasingly believe parents “get in the way” of the Democrats’ “LGBTQIA+” and abortion (baby-killing) agendas. This subversive philosophy was strengthened last year when SB 866 initially passed the State Senate, making it “easier” for them to trample parental rights.
2. Because Democrat politicians prostitute themselves to “LGBTQIA+”: Both bills, especially AB 957, were sold to the ruling Democrats as benefitting children who “identify” as another “gender.” Experts at playing the “LGBTQIA+ card,” Democrat bosses twisted the arms of 4 Democrats who, June 13 in the Senate Judiciary Committee, had demanded a religious-freedom amendment as a condition to support AB 957 on the floor. Yet no religious accommodation was put in the bill, since those 4 Democrats were reminded how the “LGBTQIA+” agenda supersedes everything. And with AB 665, Democrat state senators were sold how this somehow benefitted “LGBT youth.” You see, in order to capture kids, their perversity agenda must squash God-given parental rights, every time.
3. Because Democrat politicians are professional liars: Over the years, I’ve repeatedly seen Democrat legislators draft deceitful bills, redefine and misdefine words, break their promises, and arrogantly claim what’s true is false and what’s false is true. AB 665 author Wendy Carrillo falsely claimed her bill never threatened parents, and said AB 665 is for “homeless youth,” when that’s not even a condition of her bill. And AB 957 author Lori Wilson claimed religious parents would never have their children taken away, that her judicial mandate is not a mandate, and that she’d “work” with the Judiciary Committee chair to amend AB 957 to accommodate religious parents — but these were all lies.
1. Please call Newsom’s constituent services office, Monday-Friday, 9-5 at 916-445-2841. When a staffer answers, tell the staffer paid to take your simple message: “I’m calling to urge Governor Newsom to veto the anti-parent bills AB 665 and AB 957.”

The California State Legislature will adjourn its 2023 session on September 14; the governor will have until October 14 to sign or veto bills.
Democratic governors don’t tend to jump at the chance for a sit-down interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News. They also don’t tend to do tours of states they consider hostile to their own, like Florida. But then there’s California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom. He prefers the national stage to dealing with the rampant dysfunction happening in his own state. And while Newsom claims he isn’t running for president, the evidence suggests he actually is.
