Exclusive: Sen Ron Johnson details COVID probe, 'biggest gov scandal of my lifetime'

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., continues to push for answers surrounding the federal government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. To further those efforts, the Wisconsin lawmaker held a hearing Wednesday on Capitol Hill, focused on the alleged suppression of scientific research and vaccine safety. If you keep looking at evidence and say it doesn't exist, I don't know how to counter that,” Johnson said. Following the hearing, Sen. Johnson spoke exclusively with The National News Desk about his efforts to expose what he calls "the biggest government scandal of my lifetime." Because so many people's lives were impacted. So many people died,” said Johnson. _________________________________________ Follow WCYB on social media: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@news5wcyb Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/news5wcyb/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/news5wcyb Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/news5wcyb/ Have a tip?
