Biden Appears To Threaten House Speaker Mike Johnson: ‘Dead On Arrival’
President Biden told reporters that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is “dead on arrival” and immediately doubled down on the statement when asked for clarification.
As President Biden was boarding Air Force One, a reporter asked for his thoughts on Johnson’s opposition to Biden’s unprecedented calls for “oversight” over the Supreme Court. Biden called for term limits of 18 years for Supreme Corrupt justices, as well as a “code of ethics” that radical Democrats will use to impeach justices who do not give them favorable rulings.
House Speaker Johnson stated that Biden’s proposals are “dead on arrival” in the Republican House on Monday.

“President Biden’s proposal to radically overhaul the U.S. Supreme Court would tilt the balance of power and erode not only the rule of law, but the American people’s faith in our system of justice,” the speaker wrote in an X post. “This proposal is the logical conclusion to the Biden-Harris Administration and Congressional Democrats’ ongoing efforts to delegitimize the Supreme Court. Their calls to expand and pack the Court will soon resume.”
“It is telling that Democrats want to change the system that has guided our nation since its founding simply because they disagree with some of the Court’s recent decisions. This dangerous gambit of the Biden-Harris Administration is dead on arrival in the House.”

The president was asked about Johnson’s statement shortly after he concluded his remarks.
“Speaker Johnson said it’s dead on arrival,” a reporter shouted just before Biden boarded Air Force One. “He is,” Biden replied.
“He is? ‘Dead on arrival?'” the reporter followed up. “He is. Dead on arrival,” Biden clarified.
The president’s comments generated outrage on social media due to the fact that they come just over two weeks after former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated by a gunman who donated to left-wing causes.
“Donald Trump was an inch away from being assassinated not three weeks ago. This is Joe Biden’s rhetoric today,” said The Spectator editor Stephen Miller,
The same people who just spent days insisting that Trump is going to cancel all elections will now pretend Joe Biden saying Mike Johnson is "dead on arrival" (twice) is no big deal.
