New house speaker's latest financial disclosure

[Care4all]

If he's found a way to keep even a small part of his life away from prying eyes and haters, good for him, and until somebody can show good cause for suspecting a crime, it should stay that way.

Oh, I don't think he committed a crime for goodness sake....my head just didn't even go there! It has the appearance of him having something he wants to hide scenario, does not mean it is something criminal he is trying to hide....and that is one scenario of possibilities.... Another could be as you thought, maybe he doesn't give an F, about the rules of disclosure and just wants to keep his life private? And another could be the secretary or an assistant handles that kind of stuff for him?? Or maybe he is simply a rebel who hates govt???

Shows no assets. Not even a checking account. Nothing. Zero assets. No investments, no properties, nothing.

Seems pretty unlikely, don't you think? A congressman, even a back bencher, with no assets at all? Used to be a lawyer, won some pretty big settlements too, where is it all?

Mike Johnson Has Never Reported Having a Bank Account

Daily Beast: "Over the course of seven years, Johnson has never reported a checking or savings account in his name, nor in the name of his wife or any of his children, disclosures show. In fact, he doesn’t appear to have money stashed in any investments, with his latest filing—covering 2022—sh

Ever thought he could have everything in a trust? His income could be going to the trust and the trustee could be paying his bills. If that's the case, it's a smart way to do it.

Not all Congressmen are "inside traders" like Pelosi.

However he's been in Congress for 7 years, how does he get paid?

However he's been in Congress for 7 years, how does he get paid?

I'm guessing he gets paid with a paycheck. Much like the other Congressmen get paid?

 

[ActionJackson]

Yes they are.
Every fucking one of them.

We don't know that for a fact, but even if all of them are, none were as prolific at is as Piglosi was.

 

[frigidweirdo]

I'm guessing he gets paid with a paycheck. Much like the other Congressmen get paid?

And what does he do with that paycheck?

It's $174,000 per year, that's $14,500 a month, and he doesn't put it in a bank? Then where?

A shoebox in a hole in his backyard?

A shoebox in a hole in his backyard?

And the chances of that are.... 0.00000000000000001%

So where's the money going?

This would be what the honest ones would be doing, instead of spending 90% of their days soliciting bribes, like Biden and Pelosi did.

 

[konradv]

But you're not the least 'suspicious' of people like Pelosi, Feinstein, Biden, and Obama though. lol fraud.

Suspicious of what? They’ve been out in the open, while no one knows out of which sewer this one crawled.

Empty financial disclosures. Think man. How likely is it that this guy doesn't have a pot to piss in?

And when there's a reason to think something illegal happened, we can care.

That is the point. Why do we even care unless we're just desperate to find something, anything to be outraged about? I've heard about opposition research, but this crosses the border into ludicrous land.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Maybe he keeps it in the pocket of a suit hanging in his closet…you know, like Bob Menendez does.
Has Golfing Gator commented on Bob Menendez yet?

Yep, he is a loser piece of shit, whom all the Dems say should resign. Unlike Santos whom the GOP just voted to keep in the House.

 

[ActionJackson]

And the chances of that are.... 0.00000000000000001%

So where's the money going?

Charity? Taxes? Or perhaps we're buying into Fake News which is the norm, these days.

I agree, it's silly.....

And yes, this is what American politics has devolved to....

The daily beast freaked out that a moral, conservative man became speaker and sent reporters to do a hit piece.
In true Democrat Media Bubble fashion they had no idea that this simply makes him even more relatable to real folks.

What is Mike Johnson's net worth?

Apparently he does (or could) have a checking account but it has less than $5K in it.

He’s just bad with money

Wonderful for someone in charge of the nation’s finances.
