Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson on Thursday vowed that, should Republicans take the Senate majority in 2024, he would pursue a rigorous investigation into the federal government's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) eschewing of potential non-vaccine treatments.
"[I]n terms of holding people accountable, I mean, I don't have a chairmanship right now," he said on the "Just the News, No Noise" television show. "So I don't have subpoena authority. If we win the majority, I would be the chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigation[s], [which] has the strongest subpoena power of any committee in the Senate because we're supposed to be the premier investigatory body."
"But you know, I only have five staff members. That's how unserious the senate is about investigations. But I've been, biding my time writing more than 60 oversight letters to these federal health agencies to lay the foundation for real hearings and real discovery. And you can rest assured that I will go after this with tenacity," he vowed.

Would love to see accountability for this huge blunder those in power foisted upon us regarding C-19 and the Genetic Therapies mandated on many people called vaccines.

What’s wrong with you people. Johnson is a good guy. Pick on a Dem...particularly Schumer.

Wow. The first 5 comments are from the Nattering Nabobs of Negativism crowd.
How awful it must be to look at life like that. The Official FR Grievance Studies Committee.
To: Sacajaweau
Johnson is, indeed, one of the Very Good ones. It’s why the DS crowd dumped so much money against him last election.
The FR Grievance Studies Committee are buffoons.
To: ransomnote
I’d rather they spend their time on getting the budget out on time, and putting the brakes on deficit spending.

They will make sure to take four years and see no one is held accountable!
All their promises last time were BS.

Senator Johnson has been consistent on the topic. This Wisconsinite believes he is sincere.
