Republican Senator Ron Johnson, who was due to join President Donald Trump in Wisconsin on Thursday, has instead entered quarantine after being exposed to someone who tested positive for the coronavirus, his office said in a statement.

Johnson, 65, who chairs the Senate Homeland Security Committee, has tested negative for COVID-19 and is experiencing no symptoms but will remain in quarantine until Sept. 29, the statement said. He was due to travel with Trump and join the president at a campaign rally in Mosinee, Wisconsin.

Since coming into contact with the coronavirus on Monday, Johnson has chaired a committee meeting and joined other lawmakers for roll-call votes on the floor of the Senate. On Wednesday, Johnson’s committee voted to move forward with subpoenas and depositions of dozens of Obama-era officials as part of an inquiry that Democrats say is intended to boost Trump’s re-election campaign. The panel is investigating a former federal probe into allegations that Trump’s 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.

Johnson this week also defended a separate inquiry by his panel into Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden, by objecting to an effort to shut it down by Democrats who allege the investigation is spreading Russian disinformation about the Bidens. The committee is due to issue a report soon on Hunter Biden’s work for a Ukrainian energy company.

If it can shut that mouth, I'll be happy

Hopefully for at least 2 months...

He should be imprisoned for his part in the Russian exchange of information over Hunter Biden!

Good, it will give him time to reflect on others that are infected because of negligence

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Herman's lonely.

It would be sad if he got sick and had to be hospitalized

Being responsible! What got into him?

Excellent news.

This probably just a bug Johnson picked up from the Russians.

If he tested negative quarantine is a waste of time

Remember this is all based on a flawed testing method that produces false positive results! Deaths that have been reclassified as covid regardless of the actual cause, and a 99.9% recovery rate! Plandemic Agenda21 ID2020 Operationlockstep Quantumtattoo Coronavirus Covid19

Rubles Ron. Get well comrade.

Is he quarantined or did he just go back to Mother Russia to get debriefed?
