Israel First says new House Speaker Mike Johnson and GOP presidential field
The more things change, the more they stay the same
When the globalist Kevin McCarthy was installed as the Speaker of the House, I wrote that business as usual will continue.

Well, the more things change, the more they stay the same.
It was so important to the Clowns of Congress to install a new Speaker because we have to keep the war machine running.
Well, the clowns found their man, Mike Johnson of Louisiana. Of course, the media was ready to push stories of how “far right” he is and how much of a “Christian” he is. Do you buy it?
Let’s face facts, Johnson was a relatively unknown politician. So, let’s see what he’s had to say.
An0maly put together some of Johnson’s statements from the past as well as statements since becoming Speaker.
Did you know that Johnson believes in white privilege? Well, he does.
But where Johnson really fit the bill for the globalists is his adherence to the Military Industrial Complex. After being selected Speaker, Johnson assured the narrative media that “we all” (in Congress) support stealing more money from the American people to give to Ukrainian Nazis to target more civilians.
Johnson declared that we “can’t allow Vladimir Putin to prevail in Ukraine,” according to The Hill.
But far more important than Ukraine, for Johnson, is stealing more money from the American people to send to the pro-sodomite, pro-baby murder (abortion), Orwellian police state, spy state government of Israel.
Brian Shilhavy wrote for Vaccine Impact:
“Johnson is a Zionist Evangelical Christian, and his first act as the newly elected Speaker of the House was to draw up a resolution supporting the current government in Israel….
How long will it be now before people like me who dare to publish the opposing view of Christian Zionism, or publish the other side of the current conflict in the Middle East that is mostly censored in the Corporate Media and even in most of the Right-Conservative Alternative Media, are rounded up and locked away for being ‘Antisemitic’?
In Florida, college and university students, where freedom of speech should be welcome, are allegedly being forced to disband if they have anything to do with Palestinians that don’t fit in with the Zionist views of Evangelical Christianity.
The U.S. Government is even trying to censor journalists outside the U.S. who live in Muslim countries for not supporting Israel.”
Johnson said that as “a Christian, we believe the Bible teaches very clearly that we’re to stand with Israel.” He’s also said that no matter what, America will support Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu, who he described as a “strong leader.”
I don’t know which one is it. Does he support Netanyahu or does he support Israel? They certainly aren’t the same thing, at least not if you ask the Israeli people who “four in five people blame the Israeli government for the 7 October massacres and over half want (Netanyahu) to resign,” a recent poll found. And the Israeli people have good reason to believe that. Just read my recent reporting on the current conflict.
But let’s deal with that “very clearly” comment about the Bible’s teachings. I wonder if Johnson has read 2 Kings:
Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them from His sight; there was none left but the tribe of Judah alone. Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the Lord their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made. And the Lord rejected all the descendants of Israel, afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of plunderers, until He had cast them from His sight.—2 Kings 17:18-20
Of course, Johnson’s comment stems from one line in Genesis. Shilhavy provided the whole passage to provide context as well as a passage from Matthew:
The LORD had said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people and your father’s household and go to the land I will show you. I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all nations on earth will be blessed through you.”—Genesis 12:1-3
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”—Matthew 28:18-20
Shilhavy wrote:
“It is interesting how Zionists seem to leave out about the part about ‘all nations on earth will be blessed through you.’…
For modern day Zionist Christians, apparently ‘all nations’ here only applies to non-Muslim nations who support the modern day government of Israel.”
So, very clear that the Bible commands us to stand with Israel? Specifically, we must stand with the Israeli government and the murderous, thuggish, pro-sodomite, pro-abortion, authoritarian Netanyahu regime?
GOP Censors Trampling on Our Rights
Of course, the GOP and CONservative media love Johnson because, after all, it’s “America first, but Israel firstest,” as Donald Jeffries put it.
Just recently, multiple Republican presidential candidates spoke with the Republican Jewish Coalition to assures them that Israel, not the American people, are their primary concern because “America first, but Israel firstest.”
You had Donald Trump declare that if “you spill a drop of American blood, we will spoll a gallon of yours.” Of course, he was speaking of Hamas.
It certainly didn’t apply to Israel who has already killed Americans, including American children, in its all-out slaughter of the people of Gaza. But that’s ok because “America first, but Israel firstest.”
By the way, Trump said in 2021 that “Israel literally owned Congress… rightfully.” No, you silly Americans. You shouldn’t expect Congress to represent you. No, they represent Israel because “America first, but Israel firstest.”
Trump’s sentiments at the Jewish Republican event was shared by the entire cacophony of neocon warmongers at the event. They share good company as they’re on Hillary Clinton’s team:
We have Ron DeSantis who has ordered universities to shut down pro-Palestinian groups because they violate he new anti-First Amendment and radical “hate crime” laws. Which, by the way, he traveled to Israel on the Florida taxpayers’ dime to sign both because “America first, but Israel firstest.”

The GOP and their CONservative mouthpieces are demanding “safe spaces” on campus and that people lose their jobs for wrong think. But, after all, it’s “America first, but Israel firstest.”
“Shocker: a huge contingent of ‘free speech warriors’ never really meant any of it.
All along, their ‘free speech’ talking points were code for the much less noble principle: ‘I want my political opponents silenced and my political tribe amplified in the media because I’m scared my ideas can’t stand up to scrutiny.’
…And so, just like that, all of their alleged fidelity to the concept of freedom of speech is tossed out the window when the neocons catch the slightest whiff of a hot new Middle East war they might be able to finagle out of a tragedy.
In response to various university groups embracing Hamas and/or criticizing Israel (these are not interchangeable positions regardless of how hard neocons want to conflate them), Nikki Haley trotted out a new censorship slogan she might as well have ripped straight from a Women’s and Gender Studies manifesto:
“There should be freedom of speech, but you don’t get freedom of hate.”
(Note how the political dichotomy has a way of coming full circle when it comes to justifying censorship.)
Of course, Haley’s nonsensical catchphrase handed to her by her PR people doesn’t mean anything, but that’s the point: it’s incoherent and malleable enough to justify any crackdown on speech possible.
Ben Shapiro: ‘If you work in the media and uncritically and reflexively parrot the genocidal Jew-hating terrorist liars Hamas you should be fired’

‘But, Ben,’ one might make the rhetorical counterpoint, ‘what should happen to you if you work in media and you’re a literal Israeli intelligence asset posing as an American patriot?’

Bartee goes on to touch on DeSantis’ anti-free speech movements as well as Laura Loomer who is calling for the firing of people who are pro-Palestine. He finished:
“The above is merely an hors d’oeuvres of the calls for censorship by neocons and MIGAs (Make Israel Great Again) in the name of combating anti-Semitism.

This is a fair warning to all the neocon filth out there from both parties cheerleading this anti-American bullshit: you are sowing your karma. One way or another, you’ll reap it good and hard.”
It would be unfair to not note that there is one Republican to put America first. That was Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) who was the lone GOP no vote on Johnson’s resolution to make Israel the priority. Massie Tweeted:
“I condemn the barbaric attack on Israel and I affirm Israel’s right to defend itself.
However, I will not be voting for House Resolution 771 today because:
1) It calls for sanctions on a sovereign country. Sanctions are a prelude to war and hurt the citizens of the country more than the government of the country that’s being sanctioned. And ultimately, sanctions create laws that will be used to prosecute American citizens (who engage in trade), not citizens of the sanctioned country. In short, sanctions do not achieve their stated purposes but do breed resentment of our country abroad.
2) It asserts the necessity of foreign aid commitments which I have voted against. Our country is going bankrupt and we can’t afford to borrow money to send overseas, yet this resolution states that we should.
3) It contains an open-ended promise of military support that is so broad that it could be interpreted to commit US soldiers to the conflict. US troops should not be engaged in this conflict.
4) It tends to broaden the conflict to other countries when it would be better to keep the war contained geographically.”
And just to note, the Republican Jewish Coalition supported ousting Massie in 2020 because he was the only Congressman to oppose the largest spending bill in American history, the CARES Act, and argued that the only stimulus Americans needed was reopening America. So, yeah, for Massie it is America first.

A voice crying in the wilderness. A wilderness populated with swamp creatures who if you oppose you’re going to be censored and destroyed. Thomas Massie is that crying voice and I hear and support his cry for justice.
