"Politician Mike Johnson Denies Election Allegations in Face of CBS Confrontation"
TL;DR Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson bristled at CBS's Margaret Brennan when she confronted him about his support for Donald Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election results, insisting that his actions did not make him an "election denier." Johnson defended his position by claiming that the Constitution was violated in the run-up to the 2020 election due to changes in election laws made by states to address pandemic-related complications. He also accused House Republican Conference chairwoman Liz Cheney of considering backing the lawsuit, a claim she later rejected.
