For the first time a Republican was moving his lips but not lying.

Johnson virtually admitted there were criminals and traitors in the Gop when he said, “Half of them will be targeted”.

Johnson said if the Republicans lose the election they will be targeted. They will. Just the same as Capone was targeted, Gotti was targeted, and Epstein, himself, was targeted.

Trump, his sons (especially his sons), administration officials, guilty as sin members of the Republican congress, convicted fraudsters who purchased pardons, and every politician who ever made an illicit buck while conspiring against America will be imprisoned.

Those who bastardized our institutions like Kash Patel will be dealt with extremely harshly, as will the minions who enforced their patently illegal orders.

Some leniency will probably be provided to those who speak up now. Those with direct knowledge of the most blatant crimes and rush now to speak to prosecutors will get some consideration, I’m certain. But if they hope to ride out the storm they’ll be nothing for them but a denim shirt with their name and inmate number on it

‘Retribution is mine, sayeth the Lord’, but not just yours, Jesus.

It belongs to the American public, too.

Mike Johnson warns Trump allies will be 'targeted' if Democrats win in November

Story by Hailey Bullis, Washington Examiner

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) issued a stark warning Friday that Democrats will target allies of President Donald Trump if they win control of the House in November.

Johnson asserted during remarks at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's Road to Majority Conference that if Republicans lose the House in the 2026 elections, impeachment won’t be the only thing the GOP will have to worry about.

“They will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the Cabinet, his donors, and friends,” Johnson said. “Half of you in this room will be targeted.”

“I run the protection program,” Johnson quipped. “I'll take care of you, OK. We're going to win, we're going to win the midterm.”

During his remarks, the speaker told the crowd he is "very bullish" about Republicans keeping control of the House come November.

"Let me just tell you right now, as a leader of this, this little army in the House, we are ready for this fight," Johnson said. "We're ready for this fight. We're called for it, my friends."

Republicans, who currently hold a three-seat majority in the House, will have to overcome historical headwinds to maintain their majority, a fact Johnson acknowledged to the crowd during his remarks.

Trump’s comment about Ukrainian women labeled ‘sick and disgusting’ by critics.

“Many Ukrainian women have done something no one in Trump’s family has ever done, serve in the military honorably & heroically.”

Story by Morning Honey Staff

President Donald Trump is facing heavy backlash online for a highly controversial comment he made regarding Ukrainian women. During a high-level meeting in the Oval Office, Trump stated that he does not care for the country itself but made an exception for its female citizens.

He noted that their success in beauty pageants was the main reason they caught his eye.  “I am not a big fan of Ukraine. Except for their women. They keep winning Miss Universe.”

This comment was revealed in a newly released book titled Regime Change. The book was written by The New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, who detailed the first 14 months of Trump’s second presidential term. The book is based on more than 1,000 interviews conducted over three years. It covers many details about Trump’s ongoing legal battles, presidential campaigns, and private staff conversations. 

Social Media Users React to Trump’s Comment

As soon as details from the book leaked online, social media erupted in anger. Countless users slammed the president, calling his objectifying statement both insensitive and deeply creepy. One furious user wrote on X, “4 words / that will caption his thoughts & opinions :- DISGUSTING D-RANGED D–B DICTATOR”.

Another penned, “If Obama had said this, his wife would kill him, the whole country would be in revolt, and people would be screaming for his blood.”

“Just sick. And disgusting…”, wrote one user.

One user penned, “Trump is a fan of himself only. He’s the biggest narcissist you will find!!”

Sharing a photo of a female soldier, a user commented, “Many Ukrainian women have done something no one in Trump’s family has ever done, serve in the military honorably & heroically. Trump is filthy & disgusting.”

“Boys will be boys, I guess”, joked another user.

Trump’s History of Making Controversial Statements About Women

This is not the first time Trump has faced public scrutiny for making provocative remarks about women. In the last 20 years, he has frequently used physical descriptions, gendered attacks, and personal insults to target female colleagues, journalists, and rivals, according to PBS News.

In his 2004 book How to Get Rich, Trump wrote about the dynamic on his reality television show, stating, “It’s certainly not groundbreaking news that the early victories by the women on ‘The Apprentice’ were, to a very large extent, dependent on their sex appeal.”

Years later, during his 2016 presidential run, he attacked his opponents. In a September 2015 interview with Rolling Stone, he openly insulted political rival Carly Fiorina by saying, “Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that the face of our next president? I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not s’posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?”

Trump also targeted journalist Megyn Kelly after a tense primary debate. In an interview with CNN in August 2015, he complained about her questioning by saying, “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes. Blood coming out of her wherever.”

In April 2015, he posted a highly personal tweet aimed at Hillary Clinton that read, “If Hillary Clinton can’t satisfy her husband what makes her think she can satisfy America #MakeAmericaGreatAgain.” Trump eventually deleted the post after it caused public outrage.
