TL;DR Summary

A review of Republican Congressman Mike Johnson's former legal clients reveals his close association with extreme anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ groups, some of which have ties to violent movements. Johnson, who has openly expressed his anti-abortion and anti-gay beliefs, provided legal services for free to clients who advocated for violence against abortion providers and the LGBTQ community. One former client, who now leads a militant organization linked to the murder of an abortion doctor, also endorsed the hanging of government officials during the January 6th Capitol attack. Despite the violent rhetoric of his clients, Johnson has not distanced himself from their actions or denounced their involvement in the insurrection.
