House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Monday told voters in Pennsylvania that the "little secret" former President Trump mentioned at his Madison Square Garden rally is a get-out-the-vote strategy, not something "diabolical."
Democrats have been in panic since Trump teased Sunday that his "little secret" with Johnson would help Republicans keep the House of Representatives come Election Day. A New York Times article suggested that in the worst case scenario, Democrats feared Johnson would work with Trump to steal the election and stop the certification of results on Jan. 6. 2025, should Vice President Harris win.
"It’s nothing scandalous, but we’re having a ball with this. The media, their heads are exploding. ‘What is the secret?’" Johnson said Monday at an event for GOP congressional candidate Ryan Mackenzie, according to The Hill.
"It’s a thing we have about — it’s a get-out-the-vote. It’s one of our tactics on get-out-the-vote," Johnson said in response to a voter's question about Trump's comment.
"But they are convinced," the speaker added, jokingly rubbing his hands together like he had an evil plan.
On Sunday, Trump said his "little secret" with Johnson would help Republicans win congressional elections, but he otherwise kept tight-lipped about it.
"I think with our little secret we’re going to do really well with the House, right?" Trump said, directing his remarks at Johnson. "Our little secret is having a big impact. He and I have a little secret — we will tell you what it is when the race is over."
His comments, delivered with a chuckle, set off a reported wave of fear and panic among Democrats who speculated that Trump could have been referring to attempts to steal the election.
Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., told the Times he took Trump to mean he had a "backup plan" in case Republicans lose the election.
"There’s a lot of ability for a bad actor to mess with the Electoral College if he’s the speaker of the House," he said. "If I’m wrong, they should say so. Trump has a lot of secrets: His medical records are secret, his taxes are secret, his phone calls with Vladimir Putin are secret. Clearly he hides a lot from the American people. Now he’s openly stated that he’s hiding something from the electorate."
In comments to The Hill, Johnson called the rampant speculation that he and Trump were planning to break the law after the election "absolute, utter nonsense." ………………

Veteran NBC journalist Andrea Mitchell announced at the end of her Tuesday show that she would take on a different role after the presidential inauguration in January 2025.
Mitchell said that she would be moving on from her anchoring duties at MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports to take on a wider reporting-focused role at NBC News. She told Jeremy Barr of The Washington Post in an interview on Tuesday that she “wrestled with this for a long time.”
Mitchell added that it was a “tough decision,” but made it very clear that she was not retiring from the network where she has worked since 1978. Mitchell will continue to serve in her role as NBC’s chief foreign affairs correspondent and chief Washington correspondent…
President of editorial at NBC News Rebecca Blumenstein said of Mitchell’s move: “Being an anchor is pretty time-consuming. It’s time that she doesn’t have to be doing reporting that can resonate across NBC.”
Andrea Mitchell Reports has been part of the MSNBC daytime lineup for 16 years.
