Speaking on The Jay Weber Show on Monday, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) revealed that he doesn't believe the attack on the U.S. Capitol was an "armed insurrection."
Johnson got into it with fellow Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) on the Senate floor during the final hours of the impeachment proceedings where Johnson looked "visibly upset," Politico reported Saturday. Johnson lashed out at reporters for asking questions about the argument assuming that they were somehow surreptitiously. In reality, it was that he was so loud reporters in the gallery could hear him, the report said.
But when talking about it to Weber, Johnson dismissed the entire proceeding as much-ado about nothing.
Johnson did say that he believes the "breach" happened and "we all mourn the loss of life." He then went on to blame Democrats because of the George Floyd protesters burning buildings. He also alleged that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi somehow knew something ahead of time. Other Republicans now are attempting to blame her for Trump's supporters attacking the Capitol. .............(more)

spreading hate, lies and disinformation. I hope by next election the Wisconsin voters will have had enough of him and vote him out of office.

The people involved had every intention of doing great harm including death to the Vice President and Members of the House and Senate.

He was shutting his pants just like everyone else. That crowd did not know him from Adam. They would have fucked him up as much as anyone else

(18,112 posts)9. Johnson has become really unhinged in the last year or so
In the past, he was just a really bad senator, but lately he's become quite maniacal. Witness this exchange between he and Gary Peters from MI:
FWIW, Romney said their argument on the Senate floor was about boxers vs briefs.

Since he's been replaced as the DUMBEST US SENATOR by Tommy Tuberville...
So there's that....
