Mike Johnson’s lie isn’t about confusion — it’s cover. ICE shot a priest from a rooftop, and he’s fabricating an “assault” to protect his thugs. This is the new norm: brutality from ICE, denial from leadership, and zero accountability.

Calling Ukraine the aggressor isn’t a gaffe. It’s strategic narrative engineering.
Redefine invasion as defense. Vilify the victim.
Test the story on Ukraine—apply it later to Taiwan, Chiapas, or Detroit.
