House Speaker Mike Johnson is under scrutiny following reports that he received substantial payments from foreign lobby groups and AIPAC shortly after facilitating the passage of a $14.5 billion military aid package. According to Federal Election Commission (FEC) documents, Johnson allegedly received $95,000 from an unnamed foreign lobby group and an additional $524,000 from AIPAC. These payments reportedly occurred soon after the military aid package, which included significant funds for Israel, was approved.
