So Ron Johnson is apparently conducting an investigation of his fake elector scandal.

which he calls a "nothing burger." If it is that, why investigate it, Ron?

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) promised to explain why his chief of staff had offered to deliver fake electors to then-vice president Mike Pence on January 6th, 2021.

The House Select Committee showed screenshots of text messages from Johnson's chief of staff, Sean Riley, and Pence aide David Hodgson offering to have the senator hand deliver documents signed by unlawful electors from Michigan and Wisconsin, but the vice president's staff told them not to do that.

“We are piecing this together," Johnson told reporters. "You’ll find out what a nothing burger this is. It’s a complete non-story”
Johnson said his office would release a statement Thursday, two days after the texts were revealed.


Excuse me while I go behind the shrubbery here and guffaw.

1. How hard can that be?

"Chief of staff Sean, where did you get these documents? Who told you to give them to Pence?"
"You did, Senator."
"Shut up." Turns to reporters, "Nothingburger!"

2. he is trying to figure out....

if the committee has anything directly linking him to telling the aide to do specific acts.......

They don't seem to want to answer his calls.

while watching videos of the insurrection on his computer.

6. What a liar. The only reason he's investigating this is that he wants to make sure that all of the

evidence is destroyed, etc. and the only regret he has is that idiot as he is, got caught w/ the goodies.
