On day 37 of the Schumer shutdown, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) spoke with reporters following the embrace of radicals by Democrat voters on Tuesday.
Speaking with reporters, Johnson shared the concern (and reality) that ‘a communist wave’ is taking over the Democrat party.
Johnson shared, “There are some things we really need to point out. First, there were no surprises on Tuesday night, ok? You had blue states and blue cities that voted blue, to the alarm of no one, to the surprise of no one. That was what was expected.”
“It just so happened that New York, New Jersey, and Virginia were the states that were in the national spotlight on Tuesday. If the tables had been turned, and the calendar had been different, and you had three red states, we’d have an entirely different narrative that you all would be writing about. Don’t lose the simple facts.”
“Second, the big headline that everyone is writing about, appropriately, is that the future of the Democrats was set in New York City.”
“A 34-year-old Marxist is now the leader of the Democratic Party and it is a very dangerous road for them to go down.”
“I want to say this because there is a lot that’s been said about the Mamdani campaign. It is very easy to run and win as a socialist, right? All you do is promise everything to everyone for free. What a great message that is. Boy, that really resonates with people who don’t study history.”
“And while you’re making all those promises, you just hope, you hope, they never realize the trap that you’re actually setting. The impossibility of fulfilling your fantastical claims and dreams and the extreme danger and chaos that would result if you ever could.”
“When you run as a socialist, you have to hope that they never understand that this will lead to the inevitable loss of their freedom, their opportunity, their security. The loss of meritocracy and fairness in society. The loss of colorblindness and the loss of emphasis on character and the morality and personal incentive and the common sense that we rely upon to keep a republic in operation.”
“If you run as a socialist, you run on a big list of false claims. You promise everything to everyone, and you can’t deliver. And if you were ever able to deliver, it would be at the great detriment of the very people that you lured in to vote for you.”
“Third fact about the election on Tuesday night is that the Democrats, and you all aren’t writing about this and you should be, not writing enough about it, the Democrats have now set themselves on a collision course in their own tent.”
“If you look at Spanberger in Virginia and Sherrill in New Jersey, they tried to run as moderate pragmatists; that’s how they self-described.”
“But they will be no match for the coming communist wave taking over their party right now.”
“The energy is on the side of the Marxists.”
“Look no further than the top two Democrats in Congress, we’ve noted this here every day. They had to bend the knee to the socialists.

On Wednesday, Johnson further noted the dangers of Mamdani’s victory.
“Zohran Mamdani’s victory marks the BIGGEST WIN FOR destructive, dangerous, big government SOCIALISM in U.S. history — and a loss for freedom loving American people.”
“He’s an unapologetic Marxist — fully EMBRACED by the Democrat establishment. Hakeem Jeffries ENDORSED him. Barack Obama personally called to CONGRATULATE him. The Democrat Party has officially surrendered to socialists and the radicals who HATE America — they now control the movement.”
