Does House Speaker Mike Johnson ever read the news? On Tuesday, he played dumb about news that a man pardoned by President Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot has been rearrested after allegedly threatening to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. “I don't know any of the details of this at all,” Johnson said, falling back on his often-used excuse of being ignorant of national events. “I will say that anybody—anybody—who threatens political violence against elected officials or anyone else should have the full weight and measure of the Department of Justice on their head. I trust that’ll happen. I hope it will. We are intellectually consistent about that.” But Johnson was not done shoveling the BS, adding, “I will tell you this: The violence on the left is far more prevalent than the violence on the right. Don't make me go through the list.” Historically, political violence is much more of a right-wing problem than a left-wing one. The data on that is clear.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is wrong: we have a far bigger right-wing violence problem in America than left-wing violence.

Pardoned Jan. 6 Insurrectionist Arrested For Death Threats Against House Minority Leader
By Cliff Montgomery - Oct. 22nd, 2025
Remember how Trump pardoned those involved in the Jan. 6th, 2021 insurrection, but upped the ante against left-wing protesters following the assassination of Trump supporter Charlie Kirk? Well, it seems that his favorite groups for political violence are at it again: One of those pardoned individuals has just been arrested for threatening to murder House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY).
If convicted, there’s not yet any word on how quickly Trump will pardon him for this act of political violence. Such violence is allowed and even encouraged by this White House - if Trump can benefit from it, at any rate.
An anonymous statement to federal justice authorities led to the arrest of Christopher Moynihan, who was one of those convicted for violently forcing their way onto the Senate floor, and for searching through the desks of senators. The arrest of Moynihan was performed by New York State police, after conducting a “thorough investigation.”
Investigators further said their investigation has led them to believe that Moynihan at least had some capacity to access a firearm.
It’s possible that Moynihan may be charged with conducting a threat of terrorism against an official serving in Congress. His arrest on Oct. 19 was first detailed by CBS News.
“Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC I cannot allow this terrorist to live,” declared one text message allegedly sent by Moynihan to an unnamed recipient.
“Even if I am hated he must be eliminated,” Moynihan added, according to the filed complaint. “I will kill him for the future.”
Jeffries offered praise of federal and state authorities for working to apprehend Moynihan, declaring that he is “grateful to state and federal law enforcement for their swift and decisive action to apprehend a dangerous individual who made a credible death threat against me with every intention to carry it out.”
Understandably, Jeffries also pointed out the foolishness of Trump’s blanket pardon.
“Unfortunately, our brave men and women in law enforcement are being forced to spend their time keeping our communities safe from these violent individuals who should never have been pardoned,” Jeffries declared in a statement.
Moynihan is only one of those pardoned by Trump to be charged with conducting some other dangerous, criminal activity - an important point, since they may with some justification believe this president encourages such actions from his supporters.
An increasing list of those prosecuted for some role in the Jan. 6 insurrection - and having benefitted from Trump’s blanket pardon - have since been charged with other serious crimes. Many have already been convicted or sentenced for those activities.
One of those pardoned individuals, Edward Kelley, received a life sentence earlier this year after he was caught working on an assassination plot intended to kill law enforcement personnel who worked to convict him for his activity in the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Still other pardoned individuals have been charged with burglary, firearms-related activities or possession of child pornography.
For his part, Trump has been working to provide another case of special pleading intended to obscure or explain away the obvious crime of violent insurrection performed by his own people. He recently has employed his typical logical fallacy of special pleading, claiming without a shred of evidence that the Jan. 6th insurrection was pushed by shadowy ‘government actors’.
What is known is that no government official invested more time pushing the insurrectionists forward than the man who was still president that day, Donald Trump. He encouraged their meeting en masse in the capitol on Jan. 6th, personally delivered an impassioned speech to them before the insurrection exhorting them to march to the capitol building and “fight like hell” to “stop the steal” of their government, flatly refused to perform his duty to maintain law and order as the insurrection took place - Mike Pence, not Donald Trump, finally called in the National Guard to restore order on the capitol that day - and finally, Trump immediately issued a blanket immunity for those involved in the insurrection the moment he regained the presidency this year.
If these activities don’t constitute a tacit support of violent insurrection and attacks on public officials, then nothing does and nothing ever will. If Trump is looking for government officials to blame for helping to incite the violent insurrection, he doesn’t need another special pleading. He only needs a mirror.

A man pardoned by President Donald Trump for rioting at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was arrested Sunday for allegedly threatening to kill one of the top Democrats in Congress. New York State Police announced the arrest of Christopher Moynihan on Sunday with the help of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. Moynihan had been serving a 21-month prison sentence when he and 1,500 other rioters were pardoned by Trump in January. On Tuesday, CBS News reported Moynihan had sent a text message about killing House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.).
“Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC I cannot allow this terrorist to live,” Moynihan allegedly wrote, according to court documents obtained by CBS News. “Even if I am hated, he must be eliminated, I will kill him for the future.” Jeffries said he was grateful to police for making the arrest.
“The person arrested, along with thousands of violent felons who stormed the US Capitol during the January 6th attack, was pardoned by Donald Trump on the President’s very first day in office,” Jeffries said Tuesday. “Since the blanket pardon that occurred earlier this year, many of the criminals released have committed additional crimes throughout the country.” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) told reporters Tuesday morning he hadn’t heard of the case. “Terrible. First I’ve heard of that,” Johnson said. “I don’t know anything about it, but anybody who threatens to kill any political official, we denounce it absolutely, they ought to have justice fall upon their head.” Asked if it was a mistake for Trump to pardon the Jan. 6 rioters, Johnson pivoted, saying it’s not Republicans who support political violence. “I will tell you this: Violence on the left is far more prevalent than the violence on the right. Don’t make me go through the list,” Johnson said. “This is the left in almost every case that is advancing this, and not the right. So let’s not make it a partisan issue.”
Pardoned January 6th Insurrectionist Christopher Moynihan got arrested for issuing threats to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). This is yet another reason the J6 terrorists should never have been pardoned.
