Travel day back from celebrating my mom’s 91st bday. So short post.

Let’s have a quick talk about Republicans; evidence-free accusations of voter fraud (in this case, the LA Mayoral primary).

Here’s Mike Johnson:

And here’s Kevin Kruse’s reponse:

Kruse might be somewhat tongue-in-cheek here (although he does start his post with, “Seriously…”), but he is onto something.

This is another opportunity for Democrats. Mike Johnson earns nearly $200K per year and his financial reports do not show a bank account. Mike Johnson was the Dean of a Christian Law School the never opened partially due to financial fraud by its namesake.

Dems absolutely should demand that - based on Johnson’s own, in Kruse’s words, “standard of evidence-free evidence” - he resign as Speaker because we all know instinctively he is corrupt.

Use their own words and logic against them.

MAKE THEM PLAY DEFENSE.

And when they squeal like a pig (yes - Deliverance reference), then ask them why its ok for them to make evidence-free accusations and demand evidence for voting fraud. We’ve let this whole voting fraud thing go one too long without enough pushback.

Make it personal. Make it hurt. MAKE THEM PLAY DEFENSE.
