Lately they have been fixated on eliminating programs that enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in employment, education, housing, etc. And naturally, Donald Trump is the leader of this hateful movement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=69720\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Reveals that He is a Bipartisan Racist in a Pair of Disgusting Truth Social Posts<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Faithfully following Trump&#8217;s lead is his flunky in the House of Representatives, GOP Squeaker MAGA Mike Johnson. On Tuesday morning Johnson held a press briefing where he affirmed his putrid prejudices. He was asked about the war in Iran that Trump has been losing for six months and still has no plan for getting out. Johnson said that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The problem is &#8211; and the reason we&#8217;ve been frustrated is &#8211; the Iranians cannot be trusted. They&#8217;ll sit at the negotiation table and say something, then walk away and do the opposite. For some of them it&#8217;s apparently part of their religion that they can just lie to someone they disagree with.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"embed-x\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">There is SO MUCH WRONG with House Squeaker Mike Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>1?? It&#39;s racist to say it&#39;s part of Iranians religion to lie.<br \/>2?? It is Trump who can&#39;t be trusted. He ripped up the agreement that the U.S. had with Iran.<br \/>3?? Johnson &amp; Trump lie virtually every time they open their mouths. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iTWx6zImpS\">https:\/\/t.co\/iTWx6zImpS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; News Corpse (@NewsCorpse) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NewsCorpse\/status\/2094833695228363012?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 1, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s rather impressive how much repulsiveness Johnson can squeeze into such a short comment. Most notable is the flaming bigotry of his assertion that it is part of Iranians&#8217; religion to lie. It&#8217;s an especially disgusting remark considering that Johnson himself professes to be a devout Christian, while also being a pathological liar.<\/p>\n<p>The pathological lying is a trait that Johnson shares with Trump. Which makes Johnson&#8217;s accusation that Iran can&#8217;t be trusted all the more preposterous. It was Trump who tore up an agreement between the United States and Iran that had successfully prohibited any efforts by Iran to acquire nuclear weapons. And that deal, made by President Obama, was accomplished without going to war, killing thousands of people, spending billions of dollars, and wrecking the economy of the U.S., and the world.<\/p>\n<p>By breaking that deal Trump not only released Iran from their promise not to seek nuclear weapons, but he also did severe damage to the reputation of the U.S. for trustworthiness. Both of those results make the world a more dangerous place. Not that Trump cares. It has likely made him richer.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, Johnson is acting out his role as a Trump disciple who has surrendered the constitutional authority of the House of Representatives to the aspiring authoritarian occupying the White House. He&#8217;s more than happy to see American democracy crumble during his tenure as Speaker. So if anyone cannot be trusted, it&#8217;s Mike Johnson. and the sooner that he is removed from power the better. And the same goes for Trump.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70543\" target=\"_blank\">MAGA Mike Johnson Chokes When Asked on Fox News What the Republican Alternative to Socialism Is<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70405\" target=\"_blank\">MAGA Mike Johnson is \u2018Confident\u2019 Republicans Will Win the Midterms Because \u2018This is a God Thing\u2019<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=65887\" target=\"_blank\">The Trump Regime Just Purged Nearly 400 Books From the US Naval Academy Because of\u2026DEI?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/newscorpse.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\">Bluesky<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Republican Party has long been the home of racists and hate mongers who openly advocate discrimination and white supremacy.
