Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

Do your best on Saturday.

Above ALL else stay calm.

It’s going to be so hard.

You’re going to get pissed.

You’re going to want to lash out.

Don’t do it.

Stay together.

Be safe.

If all else fails just walk away.

I don’t want to hear about any of you getting hurt.
