Exclusive — Mike Lee: Speaker Mike Johnson a ‘Full Equity Partner’ with Schumer, McConnell, Jeffries

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is considered a “full equity partner in the firm” of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), according to Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily on Tuesday.

Lee mentioned that while he previously regarded Johnson as a friend and ally, he now believes Johnson has shifted in an unexpected direction and is not aligned with his expectations. Additionally, Lee expressed disappointment, stating that Johnson appears to have been promoted to a full equity partner in the “firm” of Schumer, McConnell, and Jeffries.

Lee said he couldn’t explain Johnson’s change and pointed out that he has taken on the practices of the “firm.” He added that he has never seen such a drastic shift away from his expectations. Lee noted that he had defended some of Johnson’s decisions in the past, even when he disagreed with them, with the hope that Johnson would find his footing. However, Lee concluded that Johnson has found his place, just not on the side of the field he anticipated.

Lee addressed various theories about Johnson’s significant change in stance, with some speculating that he may have been compromised by the “swamp” or outmaneuvered by more skilled negotiators. Others suggest Johnson may be compromising due to the slim majority in the House. However, Lee leans towards the simpler explanations.

He stated that the most straightforward and likely reason is that when individuals attain positions of power, they often strive to maintain that position. Lee speculated that Johnson might believe aligning with war hawks, intelligence hawks, and other moderate groups in the House will help him hold onto his role as Speaker, even though this approach contradicts Johnson’s past voting record.

Lee predicted that Johnson’s decision to retain power in this way could ultimately lead to his downfall as Speaker. He criticized Republicans’ inability to achieve their goals even with slim majorities, contrasting it with Democrats’ success in similar situations.

Lee questioned why Democrats can accomplish everything they want with narrow majorities in the Senate, where 60 votes are typically required for passage, while Republicans struggle to achieve anything in the House with a simple majority.

He criticized Johnson for making arguments without providing clear explanations and relying on sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIFs).

Lee emphasized that if a vote cannot be justified openly, then it is likely being approached incorrectly. He cautioned against telling others, “I’m right, and you’re wrong, but I can’t explain why,” stating that such an approach is not appropriate.
