CNN: Ron Johnson to bring Ken Starr to testify at controversial hearing on 2020 elections
CNN ^ | Dec 11 | Manu Raju

Washington (CNN) Sen. Ron Johnson, the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, has invited former independent counsel Ken Starr and attorneys in key battleground states to testify at a controversial hearing next week where he plans to probe the 2020 election that President-elect Joe Biden won.

The hearing, which has prompted sharp criticism from senators in both parties over concerns that Johnson is peddling in debunked conspiracy theories, is moving ahead despite calls from Democrats that he scrap it. And one Republican on his committee, Utah Sen. Mitt Romney, told CNN that he will "probably not" participate in the hearing.

"We have a process in this country, under the Constitution and our judicial system, which should be followed," Romney, the party's 2012 nominee, said on Friday when asked about the hearing. "The idea of trying to change that process or interrupt it is, in my opinion, a grave mistake."

Mitt’s R jersey is becoming transparent.

His inner Democrat is showing.

Mitt would have garnered more legal votes than Joe. He also would have lost bigly.

Mitt thinks he going to lead a post Trump R party. He's counting on the cabal to rig the election machines in the R primaries like they did for Biden in 2020.

A real majority leader would remove Romney from the committee for publicly undermining it. Too bad we don’t have one.

We do have a president elect, and he may get four more years to be the ONLY president elect. Poor ol’ joe is too senile to realize his veep and he masters are in the process of throwing his criminal butt under the bus.

Mr. Starr is thought by many to have left a lot of unfinished business at Baylor University.
I’m surprised to see him running back to the limelight.

Mitt is neither Democrat nor Republican. He’s in it for himself no matter which party label he wears.

Don’t fall for this dog and pony show from grassely. He has F*ed us several times over the last four years. From defending mueller, to russia, to impeachment and now against bringing troops home. If they do anything, it is only to better their personal position.

Is Mitt CIA? Was he recruited as a student to serve the company during his Mormon mission in Europe?

Or is Mitt blackmailed?

I’m just wondering why he seems like a puppet of the permanent government ruling class.

I know his father claimed to have been “brainwashed” by US officials about the Vietnam war.

Somebody should investigate Romney to see if he is secretly a Democrat.

Mittens has always been a disgrace. But at least we know he is a snake.
