Speaker Mike Johnson recalls the White House meeting with Schumer and Jeffries that led to the sombrero-Twitchy memes
On Monday, House Speaker Mike Johnson recalled how President Donald Trump rejected Democrats Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer at the beginning of Schumer’s shutdown. They brought their ridiculous demands to Trump, and that’s when the Mexican hat memes began.
Here’s more background. (reads)
Speaker Johnson says Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries went into the Oval Office and told President Trump to his face they wanted $1.5 trillion for illegal aliens, and NPR and PBS… and Trump said “That’s not acceptable!”
“The president has tried. He’s a great deal maker. He can negotiate an end to wars all over the world, but he doesn’t have it together with these people to overcome their fear of the Marxists in the Democratic Party.”
“There’s a huge, massive shift to the left of that party, and that’s what motivates them!”
Here’s Johnson telling the tale Fox News. (He watches)

naturally. Democrats care more about every foreigner on the planet than they do about the American people.

Illegal aliens or aliens on the other side of the world, both take precedence over Americans if you are a Democratic leader.

Democrats will never abandon their illegal aliens.
As Johnson said, Democrats are beholden to the Marxists who control their party.
Trump will not negotiate with Marxists.

To Johnson’s right, Democrats are terrified of their own Marxist wing, which is pushing them farther to the left. No deal, no surrender! Trump fights for us, not for their socialist dreams! 🇺🇸

This is how soft Marxism advances, not by invading institutions, but by supporting parallel institutions: NPR, PBS, and NGO migrant networks. It is not a public service. It is ideological colonialism. The left is not good for America. replace it.

That’s why we voted for him.
He carries the line to the people.

Trump isn’t about to let Democrats undo everything he fought for and won in the big, beautiful bill. The rumor is that Democrats will capitulate on Wednesday after the election, which will confirm that Schumer’s shutdown was just a destructive ploy to attract voter turnout. We’ll have to wait and see.
Editor’s note: Schumer close here. Instead of putting the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats imposed a government shutdown of health care for illegal immigrants. They own this.
