bills that support contributors to the LLC?
UPDATE: It's been a day and I haven't found a valid clip to confirm this. Worse, on Facebook they are now attributing this to Rachel Maddow. So I am going to declare this Fake News.

I haven't found the original video. Just a lot of narrated videos of what happened.

(22,568 posts)I imagine the biggest concentration is in southern states like Louisiana (where Johnson is from) and other red states. But they're everywhere, even in my area, which is in a blue state, in the suburbs of a large blue city (Chicago).
However any of us may feel about it, these places have a right to exist, because people have the right to hold whatever beliefs they want and seek this kind of counseling if they choose. It doesn't surprise me one bit that Mike J.and his wife would be associated with something like this, because I'm well aware of their ultra conservative views.

(52,316 posts)I just find it weird how I can't come up with the original video,
but there is plenty of information out there in articles and videos that narrate the situation. So, if it's a deep fake, it's wide spread.

With Johnson's record on LGBTQ+ rights, is it a surprise?

OCTOBER 30 2023 5:00 PM EST
Louisiana Rep. Mike Johnson, the newly elected Republican Speaker of the House, and his wife, Kelly Johnson, have come under scrutiny due to their shared ultra-conservative Christian beliefs, especially those regarding LGBTQ+ issues and the counseling service Kelly Johnson runs.
HuffPost reports that Kelly Johnson operates Onward Christian Counseling Services, a counseling firm that, in its operational documents, equates homosexuality with bestiality and incest.

You will note that I did not discount this story ...
I just ask that if there is a story - then I would like to see the story provided.
If the question is whether I am in support of innuendo, speculation and rumor as general coin of the realm (and, again, lets be clear in that I did not tag this story with any such .. ) - then the answer would be a rather unequivocal, "NO" Hope that helps to clear things up - at least on my end.

The Johnson Family podcast "Truth Be Told" via Apple... Here's an example...
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-14-post-roe-america-what-happens-now/id1613637836?i=1000568113099
This was an epic week in America--with a series of seismic court decisions that will change our legal lansdscape in profound ways. Mike and Kelly summarize the cases and discuss the immediate and long-term effects of the biggest one, Dobbs v. Jackson, which is the most significant, culture-changing court decision of the past 50 years.
Now that Roe v. Wade has finally been overturned, what happens now? This episode provides answers to the big questions that everyone is asking, and suggestions on steps that all of us should take today to operate in this new legal paradigm and restore a culture of life in our communities and our nation.
This was also fun:
