   "In his most recent annual financial disclosures, released last year, #Johnson (R-La.) reports no assets at all.

   Zero.

   There are no retirement accounts, no money-market funds, no stocks, no crypto, not even a basic checking or savings account. Even more peculiar, his disclosures have never listed any checking or savings accounts on any of the forms he has filed going back to 2016, the year he was elected to Congress."

     @ZhiZhu When I learned Johnson used Covenant Eyes under the auspice of morality policing - I said to my family, "He's teaching his son how to hide aberrant behavior. Not helping him live morally." His having zero financial trail while holding an elected office - is not OK. This is a man who believes in secrecy for himself, not for others. Choice for himself, but not for others. He does these things proudly and thinks its clever. Unfit is unfit. Leaders worth following don't hide who they are.
