Mike Johnson's actions on January 6 reveal contradictions in his stances regarding violence and safety. Despite previously advocating for the prosecution of January 6 criminals and opposing pardons for violent offenders, he later defended Trump's pardons and set up a committee to investigate the events of that day. At the same time, he was criticized for allowing Stewart Rhodes, a convicted Oath Keeper, to roam freely around the Capitol, where he was lobbying for the release of another Oath Keeper, Jeremy Brown, further complicating Johnson's commitment to law enforcement and accountability.
Over the course of the day, Johnson set up a Committee to keep investigating January 6, boasting about Americans "deserving safety and security".
Meanwhile, Mike Johnson let a terrorist prowl the Capitol, as Stewart Rhodes was lobbying for a pardon for Jeremy Brown.
