Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI normally do not make posts such as this one:
There is a rumor sweeping the Intertubes (sic) about the Speaker of the House. It has to do with his participation at a certain website which, to be frank, is not one with which he, or any of his RW peers, would wish an association. This rumor is picking up speed and is being reposted with increasing frequency on mainstream social media.
I am not casting aspersions upon lifestyles, I am casting them towards hypocrisy and duplicity.
I thank you for your time and patience.

(19,846 posts)The rumor is Mike Johnson's profile on Grindr was found and is at risk of being exposed by someone fed up with his hypocrisy.

(1,981 posts)It's just so that Johnson does his job and swears in the new AZ Dem.
Most folks I know have a very very high bar against outing people.

(4,367 posts)This is old news. I heard about Mike Johnson being a closet case months ago. Nobody seemed to care then, which I found a little surprising, but Trump does have a way of sucking all the oxygen out of the room.

Projection, etc is how they appeal to the masses. The "masses" eat it up like choc cake.
MAGA is the supreme example of hypocrisy yet his cult still loves the crazy moron.

(1,981 posts)I mean, I'm pretty sure that's what you are pointing to. But it's not clear what you're saying about it.
If it's any comfort, this supposition is not news. (I mean, his adopted son, really?) What would be news is an image of an ad or profile. Then, let's have at it. Wanna sue? Prepare for discovery.
Edited to add: It's sad that he's refusing to do his job. And unfortunate that we have to resort to rethug tactics to simply get Johnson to do what he's already paid to do. (Referring to swearing in the new congresswoman, not whatever he does on his personal time.)

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/reason-republican-mike-johnson-grindr-001043193.htmlOver the weekend, an anonymous man took to TikTok to give the conservative politician an ultimatum: swear in Democratic Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva, who recently won a special election, or hell release proof that Johnson has a secret Grindr profile.
The anonymous man, who uses the TikTok handle @razzledazzlemo, claims to have screenshots, IP data, and a selfie that will allegedly prove that the Grindr account is indeed Johnsons and that his demands are all in an effort to get the government to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.
The source speaks with apparent confidence about his alleged evidence, but has yet to provide any actual proof. This, however, has not stopped the video from taking off like wildfire on X where "Mike Johnson Grindr" began trending. With so many rumors, comments, and the recent rise in AI political videos being frequently mistaken for real on social media, it can all become confusing quickly. Here's what we know.
Probably not true, but if the Tik Tok user is telling the truth, things are about to get very interesting.

i think he said he's been debating for a few days whether or not to mention this
and the "threat" or "blackmail" was that this info would come out if johnson didn't swear the dem rep. by oct. 1st.
apparently she would make the 118th vote on voting to release epstein info or something to that effect-- so that it would be brought up for a vote and republicans would have to show the folks back home that they don't want it released
something like that--i didn't catch all that he said tho
on edit: i meant 218th vote. (oopsie)

(52,084 posts)Grindr has 14+ million users and only one has the goods on Johnson? Seems like this would have come out a lot earlier if true.
FakeNoose
(38,917 posts)How many guys have changed their real name to something vanilla-bread like "Mike Johnson" or "Sam Jones" and not even realize it's the same as a semi-important person? Also wouldn't it be fairly easy to start a fake account and use photos of a real person, you know, just for political blackmail purposes?

But, yeah, this person has to have more than Mike Johnson's screen name and ip address.
It would be great if this did turn out to be another Ted Haggard, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

I had to look up what Grindr is and OH MY Shazam.
You dont think if this is true that Putins boys dont know about it? And just like with Lindsey
Graham that Trump also knows about it and has pictures and video too?
Rumor only but is his Mikes posting name the big Johnson?

(1,060 posts)This was started as a comment/speculation by a TikTok user. Who is now back-peddling.
I am always skeptical of stuff like this. Why not just release the information anonymously if this were true? Is he grifting somehow?
A long thread on Reddit with the original TikTok posting. Go there and search for :"Man who said hed leak Mike Johnsons Grindr profile by Wednesday, October 1, now fears for his own safety ".
