They’re not supposed to stay in these positions forever. They don’t need several homes. Wasteful. Have a dormitory for them when they’re in DC to WORK. disgusting
$174k isn't that much, considering they have to house themselves in two places. One being DC where a closet sized apartment can cost what, $2,000, $3,000, $5,000 a month? Plus travel. And maybe moving a spouse and children, too?
They should be paid more, but have to give up their bribes, kick backs and insider trading.
I'd serve in congress for free. It would be an honor to work for my country. I
would give it my all to help the American people. I would be living in a single wide trailer if that's what it took. It would be my biggest aspersion to be able to give back to this great nation.
That'd be my guess. Watch him come out next week and say tax payer money should cover lawyer fees and hush money for political scandals... just think of it as 90's WWF and it all makes more sense.
Of course..look at Martha Stewart, but I think the majority of us have knee jerk reactions instead of letting things play out. Mike Johnson is where he is for a reason and that reason is that Trump him there, so let’s all take a deep breath and let this play out
So you make $174,000 and can’t pay your bills, try getting a real job at 50 grand Ass Hole
I knew this guy was a piece of you know what.
Not a piece of you know what, he's a whole pile
I knew he was a piece of crap the moment he got in there.

A dorm is a wonderful idea!!! After all, they aren't in town for more than a few days at a time anyway@
I like it. We can turn the about-to-be empty FBI building into a congressional dormitory with food service from Marriott or ARA.

By his argument only the lesser qualified have taken the jobs. Albeit with criminal intent.
"At least let them do some stock (insider) trading"
Thanks Mr Obvious. Sometimes you must show them.

Shame on him and all the other leaches.
Is he just trying to put the spotlight on the hypocrisy of these fuckers writing laws to govern us???
Who really knows anymore...

Qualified people in congress. There doesn't seem to be any. No stocks.
This HAS to be a troll...
If you and I, Joe Citizens, need the same thing we’d be arrested

Why did Trump support this guy. Impeach him already
Maybe Mikey is doing us a favor by not getting anything done.
I think that's a definite possibility
He doesn't say he supports trading, I'd like to see a longer video with more context
Bull! He says specifically that at about the 35 second mark!
He says "the counter argument is", now he also says he has some sympathy for it. This does not to me say he agrees with it
