BREAKING NEWS: Speaker Johnson Blasts 'Sham' Trump Hush Money Trial At Press Briefing In NYC 

The people are not losing faith in the system. We have LOST faith in the system. You are right about one thing, though. It is disgusting.

We have lost faith already.

The fact that all of these Washington establishment types are showing up at a State criminal trial means someone's ass is in trouble.

Why can’t you hold James and Bragg accountable too? DO SOMETHING WITH OVERSITE NOW!

Secure Our Border Johnson !

They say Trump can’t talk, but they canst stop others from speaking out about the evil ones.

Very disgusting and disappointed Justice systems!

We have plenty of faith in our founding documents. Why aren't they being used to make the judges and courts do things lawfully?

MR SPEAKER, STOP TALKING AND FIX THIS! RIGHT NOW!!!!! YOU STOP IT! 😡😡😡😡😡😡

CLOSE THE BORDER !

Speaker Johnson show the people with action you are standing on the right Thank you for today

Every Republican elected official across America must get behind this immediately and hold these unethical judges and prosecutors accountable with consequences.

Thank you Speaker Johnson for those statements. It's good to hear that at least some Republicans at not afraid to speak out about what all of Americans see in live time.

Who is responsible for overseeing these people? And why are they not doing their jobs to disbar and jail these criminals!

Johnson should not use the American people for this issues

Oh, so he IS on our side...today.

Crooked judge

I thought mike johnson was a good Christian American. In america no one above the law!

Then do something about it. Investigate the investigators and prosecute them.

Mr Johnson, I wish RFK had THIS daily exposure. By this daily exposure Trump doesn’t have to campaign. This trial is his campaign

Mr.Johnson And Mr. Scott You Both Have Something In Common With Jellyfish...

Johnson definitely a trump enabler

Thank you Speaker Johnson! FINALLY, someone (besides DJT himself) defending him against this political injustice. I also appreciate your hard work in the House knowing it cannot be easy.

The people of New York better open their eyes and vote these deceitful politicians out.The corrupt DA and the Judge

We have a jury. Please go back to work.

This person should not be speaker of the house

I am sorry people, This man has made it impossible to look at him and take seriously.

TRUTH..TOTAL SCAM..GO ARREST SOME REAL CRIMINALS 💥

Republicans they do the show not the trial the facts and evidences they show inside the court room 🧑‍⚖️

Kiss the ring, pal.

Once this is done and all over with, power should be taken away from these DA's.

Dam I guess the speaker of the house now serves at the discretion of a criminal defendant. So pathetic .

The Congress is just a bunch of people in a room, given fancy titles, elected by popularity contests, and throwing mud and screaming lies at each other. It's better than a bad King or a cruel Dictator, but there is still a lot of stupid and cruel people running the show.

I don’t see it. Seems perfectly justified. Mike is a dork.

They always try to use the American people, as if all of us agree... Man please

It is about time for you to SHOW UP. STAND UP FOR AMERICA JOHNSON!!!!!! YOU HAVEN'T BEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It should be illegal for our coequal branch of government and speaker of the house to do a campaign event, such as this for a criminal defendant!🤬🤬🤬

Finally, Republicans are united 😊❤

Close the damn border!!!! TRUMP 2024

President Donald J. TRUMP, we love and support you and true America stand with you. We will not fall. Thank you

Mike Johnson has to clean Diaper Don's diapers AGAIN!! 💩💩💩

It’s utterly despicable that our supposed Speaker is there lying.

the people are fed up with YOU mike johnson!!!

The largest crowds ever 😧😂🤣

Mike Johnson should be on trial

As Speaker, why isn't he doing his job. Why is he stumping for a criminal?

Speaker Johnson Congress & Supreme Court must Stop the Dem Corruption of Justice System.

Speaker Johnson I appreciate you. Thanks for speak your thoughts and truths. This is a sham trail just to keep president Trump too busy to campaign. This will make more people determined to get out and vote.🇺🇸

Kevin McCarthy would never have been near these proceedings.

On my God! This is crazy!

It’s not a travesty It’s justice The real travesty is that he isn’t in jail for inciting an insurrection

Corrupt DA and corrupt Judge

From Scotland……I didn’t know that in US you can have 2 presidents at once! Here was me thinking President Biden was the only one. But wait…..isn’t he the one resides in the White House?

We the people wake up. get back America strong again! No border No nation!

I don't want to hear squat from him. He could have fixed the border problem months ago, the one that the gop has been whining about, but he is not man enough to stand up to Donnie Chaos.

I still don't trust him, and don't like him anymore. I hope Trump doesn't trust him, and stops supporting him.

It is about time Speaker, the Judge, Prescuter and all involved must testify before the congress!

Mike Johnson needs to stay out of this! This is absolutely not congressional business. This is a form of witness intimidation.

Remember this - Speaker Johnson is number 2 in line to the president's office. The VP and then him. Number two. 3rd most powerful person in the world. You can't make him do what's coming next, because we all will suffer. Remember.

Thank you Speaker Johnson for speaking on Trump's behalf. President Trump 2024 !!!!!!!

Finally, someone with guts laid out the truth.

Oh my God!! The Speaker of the house! What a shame! He committed crimes that keeps him in court like everyone else

A sham calling out a sham. Damn I love politics.

Here is the thing... If he (Trump) hadn't delayed this thing two years out with his legal loopholes the trial would have started long before now. It wouldn't change the facts though. Who am I to judge this man? I'm not a legal analyst, nor a lawyer, or have any experience that would matter. I'm just a 'Sgt. Snuffy' at this point. But when all the evidence points towards you committing a crime then you cannot call something a sham. Senator Johnson is in a public position, it is shameful that he should use that platform to attempt to defend a criminal defendant in trial for his own (Trumps) crimes. Regardless if he says he is there in his own capacity he made a public statement defending Trump and that could sway jurors.

What type of attorney were you to think a defendant in a criminal trial doesn't have to be present during his/her trial, a real estate attorney ?

Mike Johnson is a clown even his base hates him 🤣

HOW CAN THIS OCCUR?????? 🙏🇺🇸

Speaker Mike Johnson is not Trump lawyer spokesman but he is a Congressman and needs to speak on the American people issues.

I hope he loses his job, this man whos job was saved by democratic s, saying this trail is awful, look if you do the crimes its going to catch you sooner or later, trump needs to do the time. Trump cares only for his self, and trump would throw you under the bus, if your not with him, i wish these people would wake up.

It's not a sham. YOU ARE

HUA...AND YOU DONT CALL OUT THE US MARCHES,, TO AREST AND TAKE IT TO ONE OF THE AREMFORSE CORTS..

Thank you

Well done, sir!❤

How is it that we have elected people who now want to take over and ruin years of work. We have to be better at electing responsible people. Vote blue 💙 Get the crazies out of the government.

The United States judicial system needs some serious attention, from want to be Judges on down

Maybe MTG should do another Speaker outage vote. I suspect the democrats won’t save Johnson this time.

About time‼️

Bravo Mike 👏 President Trump 💯 ❤❤❤

This needs to end! Leave Trump alone! Why are they getting away with doing this?!? It’s because they know we need Trump to save us and they don’t want America to be saved!

If it’s a sham, why did the grand jury agree that there was enough evidence to prosecute?

You could have defended this stopped it any time. You just do this for power.

So irresponsible... to imagine a lawmaker criticizing the justice system, that leaves a whole lot to be desired... last week when the same Democrats voted to save your job, you were quiet. Politics ahhhhhh! such evil...

Let the jury decide Trump is not guilty, then there is no question or arguing if he is innocent or not.

Thank you for having a back bone with this and the speech on the campuses, Mr speaker.

I am first, ashamed of my country to do this ,second, I am afraid where this will lead to.

Go speaker Johnson why can’t this judge recused himself if there is a conflict of interest . Vote Republicans all the way November 2024

I like how bringing criminals to justice is a travesty when it's your criminal.

We can almost see the strings pulling out from his back . ( Strings controlled by the master of puppets )

Yes -They are both a travesty of justice. He is there using TAXPAYERS MONEY - this has nothing to do with his JOB

What you guys need to do is to be more transparent about why this is happening. We know that the White House is paying for this prosecutor to go after Trump. You guys think that the American people are stupid.

Amen. God bless Trump. I pray for his protection.

Please help president Trump! Why can’t something be done to end this madness?!

that is reason why it is so important to know the truth. Everyone must know the truth before voting.

Didn't the hoouse of Representatives have a slush fund to pay NDAs. I believe it was about 7 years ago.

Thank you Mike Johnson for speaking truth and for coming along side a friend

The groveling before Trump continues.

The pilgrimage from D.C. to NYC tells you all you need to know about the Trumplican party. Some men are above the law. However, if you’re a woman after Trump is re-elected, you’re going to have to report to the pregnancy police for examination and registration if you miss your period.

We can't see anything. You are asking for privileges because it is not a regular guy, several people are facing trial and no one is having any problems with it.

This is where we need to see Johnson , up in front of the cameras where the real action is . Congress is boring ,it sorta takes care of itself . The GOP needs to promote Trump as their number 1 prize fighter so that The Good will conquer the evil , the evil ways of the accuser 💚

Grand jury felt it was good enough to go to trial
