Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

I’m incredibly disappointed in my senator @alsobrooks.senate.gov for voting for the Make Crypto Great Again Act. It would be deeply corrupt to give crypto (a worthless scam) any regulatory backing in normal times.
But, to do so when Trump is using it to openly accept bribes is unforgivable.

Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.
