Speaker Johnson Says What? [View all]

He later added that the justices on the nation’s highest court, “many” of whom he knows personally, are “deeply concerned about that, as we are. So, I think they will set this straight, but it’s gonna take a while.”

Wow 😳. That is a pretty interesting statement from the Speaker. One is it exposes a significant bias from the Justices in question, calling into question their ability to be impartial in cases involving TSF.
Two, in what situation is the Speaker of the House associating with SCOTUS Justices and discussing the legal challenges facing the former president? Why is that conversation even happening? What was the reason that the Speaker engaged with multiple Justices in the last 12 hours and specifically discussed Trump's legal issues?
