House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is rallying behind President Donald Trump‘s crackdown on the Los Angeles riots, saying “a clear distinction exists between the violence perpetrated in Los Angeles compared to the conduct of people involved in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.”

“Everybody wants me to relitigate Jan. 6,” Johnson said. “I’m not going to do that. There’s a very clear distinction between the two. The people who broke the law and destroyed property were met with the proper consequences on Jan. 6.”
