House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) insisted that federal agents' abuse of force had not risen to the level of congressional investigations after a judge barred the Department of Homeland Security from using specific tactics against faith leaders and journalists.
During a press conference on Tuesday, one reporter told Johnson that federal agents had been seen shooting pepper balls at the targets.
I've not seen them cross the line yet," Johnson insisted. "We have committees of jurisdiction who have that responsibility, but it's not risen to that level."
What I've seen is the abuse of law enforcement by radical leftist activists," he continued. "You know, most recently, the most threatening thing I've seen yet was the naked bicyclers in Portland who were protesting ICE down there. I mean, it's getting really ugly."

So, naked bicyclists are more 'threatening' than masked, heavily armed men kicking in doors?

Are you sure this isn't from the onion? Bizarre if true that the Speaker is upset.

All those barebutts. How can he contain himself? How can he restrain himself? How can he choose which one he wants?

Naked bikers are more threatening than the suffering you cause Americans with your Epstein shutdown aiding & abetting?

Sort of OT, but I find the idea of sitting naked on a bicycle seat really gross. I've never found...

Mike Johnson needs to take a peek through the curtains of his little church and see what the real world really is.
