Mike Johnson says California election is 'rigged' and 'impossible to prove'
RAJU: But what evidence is there to prove the California election is rigged? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, some of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it's impossible to prove. But I think everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here.
Ace Combat Fan - Cheets608I instinctively know something is wrong with Mike Johnson. Should he be investigated by that logic alone?
RiseUp!! (Formerly Maskup)333"So far upstream we can't prove it..."🤣
Democratic Free Press283"Impossible to prove "- Mike Johnson because it doesn't exist" Taking longer to count = non rush count and more accurate
Eliana191The #GreedyOldPendejos are mighty desperate!
jfordemocracy111Please tell us about these diabolical efforts.
[email protected]110If anyone knows about rigging and outright stealing election it’s them.
Blkshrink88Mike Johnson lies so much about American politics and law, he SHOULD be up for sanctions by the State Bar Association for wherever he holds a license for ethics violations.
Catherine73Yes. Something is very wrong when the Republican Political Party tries to park a reality television personality in the Governor's seat.
RiseUp!! (Formerly Maskup)64The LAST instincts I would rely on are habitually lying republicans.🤣
Raeann60Yea, a corrupt president and a weasel Speaker of the House.
Expatriot59There is no fucking appearance of impropriety. Because that's what having zero fucking evidence means
m. hela fella43Those dangerous "feelings" that had trump "instinctively" bombing/executing fishermen without due process is pervasive among the self proclaimed 🇷🇺MAGA... Little sycophant Mikey Squeaker Johnson knows that if trump doesn't win something is "instinctively wrong". Can we apply that to pedophiles?
Cwnidog42Hey Mikey, “impossible to prove” == bullshit. If you can’t prove a claim, don’t make it.
Marc Bloomquist38We need to believe in……something I have no evidence of. Not shocking coming from a “man of faith”. Thanks religion! Odd how they think when they were all elected everything was fine. 2016 and 2024 Pres elections happened to be clean to them.
Joce34diabolical? Sounds like projection to me. These people are shameless -- it's always 'rigged' when they lose but never when they win? How does anyone believe the hypocrisy.
Epstein34If Jay Clayton is making claims about California elections without evidence, that's irresponsible for a lawyer and public official. Attorneys have a duty to be truthful and evidence-based. If that standard is being violated, his conduct should be scrutinized and disbarment considered.
Tim31Little shyster! Someone slap those glasses off his lying face, the next time he lies..
Twinsfan81 💙🇺🇸🦅🦋29No proof, but they have feelings. Ugh.
Carrie Carnes 🦋25Yeah, something IS wrong. Donald Trump is trying to steal an election by accusing Democrats of cheating. He does this every time we get close to him being held responsible for his corruption and grifting off of the American people.
Johnny David La Fayette25What's written here, is a treasonous conspiracy to force us into a theocracy. That's what is wrong you lieing little fuck Put that treasonous little shit in prison where he belongs. Our Whitehouse looks like a fuckin circus. This isn't Roman empire gladiator time. It's LA FAYETTE WE ARE HERE TIME
Julia Dilliard💙🐴🇺🇦#Resist. DM's are blocked.25Trump said much the same in his interview with Kristen Welker.😡
Halfpint DJT IS MY NELLIE OLSEN!24Oh for gawds sakes. Unreal. Everything is always rigged when they lose. Ppl get this right? Right?
mcrbird.bsky.social23Impossible to prove, but we know it’s true. This is the definition of delusion.
Craig Gardy23I think some people instinctively know Trump is guilty of Epstein related crimes. We instinctively know that something is wroig there.
Dr Eric Farmer20What a slimeball. Trump says that there's evidence everywhere, but doesn't produce any. Johnson says it's impossible to prove but "everyone knows instinctively". How would that play out in a court of law if they were accused of slander?
Philip J Fry20"It's impossible to prove". Man that's funny, because he also has no problem believing in a god with the same description. How about we start electing people who believe things that are POSSIBLE to prove
Blue Kentucky Gal20Knows. Instinctively? Those two words mean different things.
Miss Fanny Tittington19OMFG! There’s no evidence but he has a spidey sense. What a moron.
lafourchette18sooo … he trumpets what he can’t see but when presented with facts/videos he claims he hasn’t seen them.
4jim18They just hate the idea of people not like them voting so any not straight white male christian land owner vote, to them, is wrong and rigged.
Bonnie C17Mike “the Trump Lapdog” Johnson is a f’ing diabolical LIAR.
Johnny David La Fayette17States run their own elections ASSIMILATE MIKE JOHNSON. Asshole
Kathryn Edwards17He’s talking about Musk and MAGA election fraud.
FunnyTechGuy 💙17I'm no lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that an instinct is not a legal basis for anything. Wasn't Maga Mike Mini Johnson a lawyer in a previous life?
Doug Urner (he/they) 🏳️⚧️16Mike Johnson: "They are so good at it that nobody can find any evidence. That's how we know it's happening." Me: "Hmm... Maybe we're underestimating the US electorate, maybe they actually voted in massive numbers for Harris, then something diabolical happened far upstream."
Hedley Lamar's fugly sister16MR JOHNSON! THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS!?
Chris Cotton16Yes, we do need people to believe in election integrity. It's why fuckwits like Mike Johnson and twats like Donald Trump need to be held accountable for their fucking unfounded lies.
NullHedge BongFella15What a psychotic douche canoe.
playon.bsky.social14"Impossible to prove" lol. Who is this "everybody" he speaks of?
Get up, stand up14I know instinctively that he is a lying POS.
Claude the Irregular Dragon (TM)14Ha ha ha ha! What a lying little asshat!
judic-wc.bsky.social14Mike Johnson, you’re so full of sh#t. No, everybody doesn’t know. There’s nothing wrong with the election process in CA. So don’t be gaslighting people.
WilliamTheConquerant 🇨🇦🏴☠️🏴14Mike Johnson has to live with being a fucking liar for the rest of his life. You know, the kind of people Satan likes.
Geoffrey Hoytsman14Not like there’s a war going on. Screwworms, droughts, gas prices. Let’s whine about election we had no chance of winning
Alfred Poor14Every accusation from the Trump Administration and Congressional Republican leadership is a confession. Every. Time.
Hitchen’s Razor: Whatever can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence
Kas12Well—I know instinctively that everything coming out of the Speaker’s mouth is just a big fat lie to stay in the good graces of the fraudster who occupies the Oval Office. Nothing more. I live in CA and LA county alone has almost twice as many voters than all of the Louisiana counties combined.
Granuailynn12"We're not winning, & all we do is inhale MAGAT farts all day, so of COURSE that means if we're not winning it's b/c of cheating & not that voters can see & smell what we're up to"🙄 One of the most rigorous voting systems is "diabolical" Can't prove a negative, so we'll spin that it's "impossible"
Weldon J. Wilkerson12"Trust me bro," is his evidence.
BossyEmma'sDad12My instincts tell me that The Speaker of the US House of Representatives is lying in maga's continuing effort to undermine faith in US elections.
Connie2448.bsky.social12Do these idiots realize how many people live in California? And how many people vote in California. Try to count to at least a million, disagree see how long it takes.
Halfpint DJT IS MY NELLIE OLSEN!12"The people dont hate us..its rigged!!"
Kat ‘Beans’12We’ve moved into slander and defamation territory…
CLE11The MAGA RepubliCON sore losers at it again. Nothing more diabolical than Musk & Trump letting it slip that they interfered in the polls last election. So much Fascism now since then that it is COMPLETELY understandable why Democrats are doing so well. California is a blue state anyways. Whaa.
Henk11This guy is a pathetic liar and a traitor to democracy.
Lonelibinutah11What a piece of work. So Trump's little Johnson thinks liberals are so smart they figured out a way to rig an election so good, it can't be detected. Yeah, something is definitely wrong here.🤔
Fucking Bitch from Minnesota11Whenever a judge asks me for evidence, I just reply: I feel like there's evidence there judge. Trust my instinct.
StayingCovidSafe11Back at ya Mike 😒
truthntransparency.bsky.social10There needs to be severe punishment for Politicians who lie. And severe punishment for Politicians who rig elections. I'm 100% sure they are the same people.
Lauren10It's always rigged when their guy loses. Fn fascists.
Diana9Liar liar pants on fire Mike Johnson
Tyrant Biggles9What is it about the California primary that makes Mike Johnson's instincts engage while his instincts lay dormant over other issues Johnson hasn't heard about?
Mr. International9Vote this fool out Louisiana!!!! Register and vote!
Mr. International9Such evil geniuses Trump is the president and both houses of Congress are Republicans.
paintgarden4.bsky.social9What a bunch of baloney. So it’s “diabolical” and so far “upstream” that there’s no evidence and it can’t actually be proven with facts? These people are rotten through and through. The system worked for 250 years and just with Trump ONLY the whole system is corrupt??? They are shameless liars.
JustMeJohnnyV9Someone remind him that Musk knew who won the 2024 election four hours before the election was over.
TruthShines☀️9Their instincts appear to be broken🙄
b-mcconnaughey.bsky.social8ah, their guy didn’t win. 🎻
Linda8I just don’t understand how these performative religious types are not in fear for their immortal souls with the magnitude of the lies they spew for immoral purposes.
Sunnydazehaze8“Your Honor, they committed a crime! I feel it in my gut. Just convict and sentence!”
@ShowMe1018So diabolical? Tell us how diabolical.
freshbrainfood.bsky.social8How did someone like tRUmp get elected. You just know it is just intuitively wrong.
tulc.bsky.social7AHH!! the old "the total lack of proof is all the proof we need!!" claim! that one NEVER gets old!
Extended Metaphor7What a despicable worm. God, politicians are the absolute worse. And then there are politicians like Mike Johnson who are several levels below that.
like_a_bosstonian7“It’s so far upstream” - Sir you literally held the presidency…
Desi7Every accusation is a confession.
I'm Beth7Look, the way I see things there's no way it could be a legitimate vote tally, bc everybody who's anybody thinks the way that I do, so therefore it has to be rigged if my guys don't win. So we know instinctively there was cheating because everybody who matters agrees w/ me. You understand right? 🙄
Mike7Mike Johnson is living proof, yes they do actually stack bullshit that high.
Mlip7Isn’t this guy a lawyer?
billtbns.bsky.social6Just your typical lying Republican cunt.
huckleberrymike.bsky.social6The folks they're appealing to respond best to these appeals to emotion ("diabolical") and authority (his, such as that is). There is no need for logic. Thus there is none.
ftp-coward.bsky.social6It’s true. This goes all the way to the top. The voters are involved in it.
melaniefromsanjose.bsky.social6Some of these states have 12 people in them, does he know how many people are in California?
Chris Plourde6No evidence, but Republicans cheat where they can so let’s assume Democrats do as well.
snaxlight.bsky.social6FALLACY: "...everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here." <--- appeal to common belief fallacy; does not make a statement true or provide actual evidence of that statement NOT A FALLACY: "The GOP often lie." <-- a well-documented fact that can be easily checked by multiple sources
Blkshrink6So since Trump “Believes” his ENEMIES are against him and not loyal that makes them guilty under this spineless toads rationale…and he doesn’t REALLY have to prove it!
erinkurinsky6There's absolutely nothing wrong with people choosing to vote for non-MAGAT candidates. This makes a lot of sense to me.
Kelly Frady6My instinct is telling me all of you are incompetent asswipes.
AliceinBlunderland6Is he new here? Seriously California is a vast state & voters by mail held back their ballots after Eric Swallwell the front runner was accused of infidelity. Voters did not know if he would drop out. The deceiver & thief goes straight for the knife instead of Occam’s Razor aka logic.
tzigan.bsky.social5There is definitely something wrong here and it's not the elections. Diabolical, so far upstream, impossible to prove? I know instinctively he is a liar and not even good at it.
Paula5California probably has more residents than red states all out together. Doh.
CogitoErgoSum5STOP 🛑 playing along w/ their malicious & sinister game. Call ‘em out! Make ‘em provide CLEAR evidence. W/o evidence, it’s just here-say, opinions a/o conspiracy theories. Courts only deal w/ facts & evidence. Only the court rulings matter: Trump lost 63 times in court R/T his election challenges.
Grumpy Grandpa5Oh jeez Now its the Devil?
djdaisylee.bsky.social5I’m just surprised he heard about it.
Rube Walker5Can't someone just knock him the fuck out already? "Trust me, bro."
Romanyel5Ha! The allegations are so absurd that they must be true. Only a Republican could say those words without gagging
traciew.bsky.social5Ask him how likely. He needs to answer specifically, not vaguely. Many people think, some people claim, it “could” be…
mkdbail5The projection is so diabolical and actually not very far upstream, and it's probably fairly easy to prove if Johnson had a spine and wasn't fully participating in it.
jnova6.bsky.social5No proof, we just “feel it”…Constitutional scholar…yeesh
teriberry81.bsky.social5Just lying about everything, all the time
mwoooooooooo5“Diabolical”? Holy Mike, who makes a nice show of pretending to be a Christian… is WAY too comfortable lying in support of the filthy corruption of the *rump regime… Think “pious fraud” when you hear him speak and you’ll see how it fits.
gmachancla.bsky.social4The old “because I feel it in my bones” argument….
"individual acts of perversion... so profound and disgusting that decorum prohibits listing them here."
Arcade4Mike Johnson is an Epstein Elite.
marcosantana4Johnson doubting CAs election process with a view to invalidating a democratic election is treason. @whitehouse-47.bsky.social @gavinnewsom.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @demgovs.org
lorisanor.bsky.social4So...you know what these "diabolical" (side note: why do you talk like that?) and "so far upstream" efforts are, (and, apparently how they work) BUT they are "impossible to prove"? I think everyone knows instictively that MJ is full of BS.
Lonnietoft4El Diablo! The devil rigged the election! Or, I just wish my side won so the other side must've cheated.
Blue Finn He/Him 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🇺🇦4Mike Johnson is a traitor and should already be in prison for treason.

gceno.bsky.social3Where did they find all these scum of the earth politicans?
Bocas Lee3He's so far up Trump's ass he can see what Trump eats for breakfast. I can't wait for Mike Johnson to be gone!
claudeskard.bsky.social3Something IS wrong and it's owned the guy being interviewed and his party. His words and actions are evidence of an inpropriety. VOTE! Vote these Republican criminals out! VOTE!
Del G💙💙💙3Apparently, this ding dong doesn’t know how elections go so my hell we forget the president cheated to become president admitted by Elon Musk but my how we tend to forget that allowing a man fucking up this country so easily but you’re OK with that give me a fucking break
The Legendary Frank King3🎶"Oh you got to have faith, faith, faith"🎶
marcosantana3This is treason. @demgovs.org @aoc.bsky.social
TamiaSciurus3Which makes me even more suspicious about the 2024 election
dregsfrolics3Hey Mikey, your self portrait here shows you know where it stinks. Where your head is. Do ya think Trump and Musk didn't have a diabolical plan in '24? And your scummy Project 2025 friends were dismantling democracy in America at the same time. This is where the actual criminality lies.
melaniefromsanjose.bsky.social3That’s literally saying it’s rigged
Craig Smith3Johnson is right that instincts should guide people's judgment and behavior. Thus, anyone whose instincts insist on punching this lying twerp in the throat has little choice but to comply.
tkb24.bsky.social3Come on, man. That is so lame. My gut tells me there is fraud, just trust me, dude. Give me a break.
Wayne P3The career ratfucker thinks it has to be ratfucking when a Dem city says fuck you to republican slimeball
cosmoknows.bsky.social3Yeah, something is definitely wrong in DC.
Magicman2Mike Johnson is a joke and I’m sure his constituents know it. That’s why he has to be voted out of office.
El Guapo2Put up some evidence, or shut your cock-holster. He's a trained lawyer. Call him out as such. Would he say that under oath? If not, then shove fat, dirty hog in your mouth, Mr. Speaker.
Jeff Terflinger2The only thing that is that far upstream are his lips on rTumps ass.
August West2"But I think everybody knows instinctively that something is wrong here." Epstein Files.
mom2two.bsky.social2#GrindrMike machetes his way through breaking every commandment and all seven deadly sins every single day, doesn’t he?
Kathy Forer2They should subpoena the ‘upstream’ satellite activity logs. Pull those from November 2024 while they’re at it.
Scott Farrand ❌👑2The Democrats are so diabolical, sooo diabolical, that the proof of their crimes is the utter lack of evidence of any crime. If this argument makes sense to you, you must be MAGA.
lwilde11.bsky.social2Once again, every accusation is a confession. They are the ones doing the rigging and voter suppression.
Long Island Jim2Time to take every republican spouting these lies out to the execution range and end these lies forever.
Jackie Knott2CA has ranked voting; with a state this large, yeah, it takes time. They could probably minimize the problem by passing laws mail in ballots must be RECEIVED by Election Day, rather than they can be mailed ON Election Day ... it takes longer. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranked_...
cbee305.bsky.social2Who The Fuck is everyone AH?
Patti R.2Whats wrong here LilMikey is your BS skills are horrible and your nothing more than a boil on America's ass.
frank-is-a-jerk.bsky.social2It's impossible to PROVE! We don't have to prove anything, just believe that its bad with no evidence. Evidence is overrated! Now, follow me down this razorblade slide to a pool of alcohol!
stinkfootjr.bsky.social2Diabolical Mike talking trash 🤷
Plisskin Is Alive2“Diabolical!!” The people are too much.
At this point, the claims that elections are "rigged" are in the same realm as claims of demonic possession. The people behind this alleged conspiracy are clearly, in the GOP imagining, actual wizards, possessed of dark magic. That and also "rigged" means "they let Black people vote."
yazikus5I think, if pressed about what upstream efforts there are, would have to admit he thinks things like public school and pbs indoctrinate kids into becoming democrats later on.
ropty.bsky.social4That is not fair. It also means "they let women and minorities vote."
WordMan ⚾️🐦📕🎞️🇫🇷📰🇮🇪3Also, separate issue, but Rs HATE the machine counting of ballots, because, you know, machines are biased against Rs, even though machine counting is much more accurate than is hand counting. How long do they think hand counting of ballots in a state as populous as CA would take? TX? NY?
Carmen Czachor2People should ask Mike Johnson, "was it...SATAN?" In their best Dana Harvey church lady voice.
Mike Johnson says that the CA election is rigged so diabolically that it is impossible to prove. But people know it was rigged, because they know so instinctively. I dare anyone to name a timeline stupider than this one.
Cachrisca6its worse than stupid- it’s evil bc it’s a lie and he knows it’s a lie
PClark Baja4Let’s convict people based on our instinctive knowledge… What the hell is that And will any judge permit instinctive knowledge be submitted as evidence republicans have fallen so low… its time to stand up for our constitution, our laws, and most importantly, our country VOTE THEM ALL OUT!
renegadehamster.bsky.social4Screw him I work elections here. It’s tight. Los Angeles County has more registered voters than some states.
CaptAirkat3Johnson will lie, imply, cheat, steal...do anything for his Orange Criminal mob boss.
Earlier this year President Trump made false claims about "rigged elections" in his State of the Union. Today, it's the California election. He continues to say that if his side loses, it's because it is rigged. We need to listen to what this means, and act accordingly.
JoeSker ❌👑4I’m so sick of this weak-ass language. “Made false claims”? Yeah…he lied. He LIES. All. The Time. He’s a LIAR. Call it what it is Senator.
Rik Basterd3Oh really? Trump claimed elections are rigged? It's funny that no one has heard this before... Senator, if you want to report the news, then resign and become a talking head. We watch the news, we see the articles online, we know Trump is a lying POC. How about fighting instead of reporting.
Scott3Donald Trump is a prolific liar.
Disaster Geek3And when are you going to stop suckling at Netanyahu's teat?
TheFeralHermit2We've been acting accordingly. We're protesting, boycotting, etc. It's politicians, like you, who are not acting accordingly. You continue to protect the tech bros, data centers, ICE, GEO Group, CoreCivic, war criminals in Israel, etc. When are you going to act on our behalf, instead of lobbyists?
Solextre2OK - "accordingly" - suppose you make the assumption that some of us don't understand what we are supposed to do. What do you mean when you say we should act "accordingly"?
michaelrayrayray.bsky.social2www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre... Yet you continue to return your blue slips to help confirm his nominees. Nominees that may twist the law to help him steal elections. It’s really hard to take you concern seriously when you continue to advance his extreme judicial nominees. What a joke.
House Speaker Mike Johnson is echoing President Donald Trump's allegations of fraud in the Los Angeles mayoral race — but admitted Monday he has no evidence to back them up, telling CNN's Manu Raju the claims are "impossible to prove."
Raw Story18🗣 On Sunday, Trump posted to Truth Social: "Not possible for Spencer Pratt to have lost the L.A. runoffs after the big lead he had. 3rd World Nation. Rigged Elections!"
Tom Gingerich2Pathetic yes-men like Johnson never say no!!! The entire cabinet, and every Republican politician are constantly vying for the “Trump‘s favorite ass kisser” position! There are so many candidates, it’s a tossup!😂🤬
somtimesyoulose.bsky.social2Every time Trump or Johnson talk about stolen elections, someone needs to ask them is true that Elon Musk manipulated the voting machines for Trump.
