a tool of a Russian election interference effort. . Johnson, who claims he's being targeted for destruction by Democrats and the press, also hinted in one Tuesday radio interview that he had some friction with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who he said had "sidelined" him at one point during his investigation.
Johnson has emphasized that his investigation's overlap with Graham is another reason he hasn't pursued certain lines of inquiry. Graham is pursuing allegations of abuses by the FBI in its investigation into the Trump campaign's 2016 contacts with Russia. That overlap became particularly evident this week: Johnson subpoenaed the FBI on Monday, demanding all records related to Crossfire Hurricane and accusing Director Chris Wray of stonewalling his investigation.
Johnson is also pursuing widely discredited allegations that Biden engineered the removal of a Ukrainian prosecutor to shield his son Hunter from a corruption probe. At the time, Hunter was serving on the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company, a conflict that several Obama-era officials said presented the appearance of a conflict of interest even if they saw no evidence of wrongdoing.
But Johnson's office later acknowledged this wasn't the case — the committee's Republicans already voted to empower Johnson to subpoena Brennan, Comey and others during a June business meeting. Rather, aides said Johnson had opted against issuing subpoenas because he wanted to exhaust efforts to obtain documents and seek voluntary cooperation from witnesses.

GailBBrown1 If Biden or Obama did something wrong by using their influential power to garner political favors then shame on them and they should suffer the consequences. The same goes for Donald Trump.
They break the law and then accuse their opponent of breaking the law. Ron Johnson is a Russian asset.

Trump’s new unemployment plan ‘not an option,’ DeSantis says, as he looks for othersGov. Ron DeSantis dismissed President Donald Trump’s proposal to spend emergency pandemic dollars to boost the state’s paltry unemployment benefits during a news conference Tuesday. It’s currently the only option since Congress is stuck in the mud. States don't have money 💰 and Trump knows that but he wants to hurt Democrats in the states. Trump wants to hurt Democrats and he doesn't care if 40% of the people in the states are Republicans. He doesn't want to sign the bill in Congress because he wants to hurt Democrats.
