On June 23, nearly a week after I published an article on these pages about the CDC’s response to a FOIA request admitting they did not monitor VAERS for safety signals, and two days after I published a similar article in CHD’s The Defender, U.S. Senator Ron Johnson wrote a letter to CDC head Rochelle Walensky, demanding to know why the CDC failed to do the analyses described in the standard operating procedures briefing document they had filed on their website.

The letter cites my substack article extensively and concludes with the following “please explain why and detail who made the decision to not follow the SOP and when that decision was made.”

I admit to feeling a sense of pride — it’s not everyday that the research one does is cited by sitting Senators in their attempts to wrangle information from the Federal bureaucracy. I have no illusions that it will make a difference, and I don’t expect Walensky or the CDC to reply to him. They have thoroughly ignored him, and I expect they will continue to do so. It’s much easier and safer than admitting to dereliction of duty.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) criticized the FBI on July 26, alleging that the bureau was “weaponized” against two U.S. senators when it arranged an intelligence briefing back in August 2020.

Johnson’s criticism was based on new revelations that surfaced a day earlier, when Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) divulged that certain FBI officials had a “scheme” to wrongly label “derogatory information” on Hunter Biden as disinformation, based on what his office learned from “highly credible whistleblowers.”

By inaccurately labeling verified evidence as disinformation, FBI officials halted investigative activities related to Hunter Biden in 2020.

“If these recent whistleblower revelations are true, it would strongly suggest that the FBI’s August 6, 2020 briefing was indeed a targeted effort to intentionally undermine a Congressional investigation,” Johnson wrote in a letter (pdf) obtained by Just the News.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said on July 31 that he expects there to be an agreement to conceal an indictment of Hunter Biden.

Johnson predicted in a Fox News interview that law enforcement “may indict Hunter Biden, but they’ll probably seal—they’ll do a deal—they’ll seal all the information.”

“The American public will never get the full truth,” he said.

Both Johnson and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) have been involved in a yearslong investigation into the business dealings of President Joe Biden’s son in places such as China, Ukraine, and elsewhere. The pair released a report in September 2020 that detailed extensive financial connections between Chinese Communist Party-linked entities and individuals and Hunter Biden.

“We’ve known that the Bidens are a corrupt family for years,” Johnson told Fox News’ Dan Bongino, noting that the “corrupt mainstream media has been covering it all up” and “even the FBI.”

Johnson also predicted that legacy news media outlets will now turn on Biden amid increasingly low poll numbers.

Republican Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has revealed that the FBI was aware of the Hunter Biden laptop story way before it first emerged and had “preplanned” a sabotage effort for when it surfaced.

Speaking during a Monday interview with Newsmax, Sen. Johnson said the FBI illegally colluded with the Democrats in the run-up to the 2020 election to help Joe Biden’s campaign.

Johnson said agents had a sabotage plan in place so they could quickly bury reports on Hunter’s “Laptop from Hell” should they emerge before election day.

“I think people should find that shocking,” Johnson said.

“It doesn’t shock me, but the FBI had the computer, we think, as early as December 2019.”

Whistleblowers have said the FBI had a scheme in August 2020 to downplay any derogatory information on Hunter Biden as the presidential election approached, Johnson said

“That same month they provided both Sen. (Chuck) Grassley and I an unsolicited and completely unnecessary briefing,” Johnson said.

The Wisconsin senator believes others were getting similar briefings that included statements such as, “You might have some foreign actors, hacking computers and then spreading that around as disinformation, you know?

“Information on certain people like oh, I don’t know, maybe Hunter Biden.”

The agency, he said, was “doing everything they could to play us, to dissuade us from ever looking at the laptop.”

WASHINGTON – On Tuesday, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) sent a letter to Dr. Rochelle Walensky, Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), regarding CDC’s repeated failure to provide complete data about the agency’s surveillance of COVID-19 vaccine adverse events and demanding further explanation of recently released information.

U.S. Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) said Republicans can prove that Hunter Biden paid “tens of thousands of dollars for prostitutes that were sex trafficked through an international sex trafficking ring.”

Senator Johnson made the latest bombshell allegation against the president’s troubled son during an interview with Fox News on Tuesday.

Interestingly, both the House and Senate appear to also have Antony Blinken in their sights, with Johnson accusing the unqualified Secretary of State of having lied to Congress. What they intend to do about it is a different question.

I’d speculate that Joe Biden might soon be facing impeachment proceedings, except that he has Kamala insurance.

No need for Kamala insurance - the Senate will not convict anyway.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) asked the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the results of analyses on data from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System in January. The request came after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said none of the safety signals it identified for the COVID-19 vaccines were “unexpected.” ...

Mr. Johnson demanded answers on that claim, prompting the CDC to point him to the FDA.

The FDA recently responded to Mr. Johnson, telling him that it cannot provide the information he seeks.

“FDA’s EB data mining analyses of adverse events contained in VAERS reports for COVID-19 vaccines are currently the subject of pending FOIA [Freedom of Information Act] litigation. FDA is unable to comment on pending litigation or provide information or data that is currently being considered in pending litigation,” the agency told the senator.

Mr. Johnson in a new letter told FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf that the claim was wrong.

“As you are well aware, Congress has a right to information contained at U.S. federal agencies as it conducts its constitutional oversight responsibilities,” Mr. Johnson said.

“It is outrageous that FDA would assert that pending litigation, and particularly FOIA litigation, would allow your agency to obstruct my congressional oversight,” he added. “Any pending litigation FDA may have relating to its EB data mining records has no bearing on its responsibility to comply with a congressional request.”

Republican Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has just gone public with explosive federal government data showing the alarming death rates associated with Covid mRNA injections.

Sen. Johnson and his team have been investigating the links between Covid shots are the soaring sudden deaths and major health complications that have been spiking across the country.

Johnson’s investors conducted an in-depth analysis of data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS).

According to Johnson, the data indicates that the COVID-19 injections are “significantly” more deadly than the flu vaccine. ...

Using the number of distributed doses to generate that figure, they found that the number of deaths per million doses of the COVID-19 vaccines (25.5) far exceeded those estimated for the flu vaccine (0.46).

Federal Health Agencies and the COVID Cartel: What Are They Hiding?

I want to thank everybody for coming. The members of the media. Obviously members of the audience and in particular the participants who have journeyed a long ways in many cases and spent some time and effort to preparing for this.

In preparing for this event, I was reminded of Louis Brandeis quote in the Supreme Court decision, Whitney versus California. To quote him, if there be a time to expose through discussion the falsehood and fallacies to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence. I think that quote is completely applicable to what's been happening over the last three four years during the pandemic.

To me, the Covid pandemic has opened my eyes to the failure and corruption of the global elite and their institutions, including government. Unfortunately, many eyes remain closed and the global elite will use all of their power to keep them closed. They maintain power by controlling information. They relentlessly push their narrative, while at the same time suppressing and marginalizing dissident voices, in this case, the overhyped fear over a virus they helped create in order to push a profitable gene therapy platform and gain greater control over our lives. Along the way, they sabotaged early treatment, denied natural immunity and vaccine injuries, caused trillions of dollars of economic devastation, and destroyed an untold number of people's lives. Unfortunately, they remain in control.

Today, I've assembled some of the dissident voices. Many have paid a heavy price for exercising their right to free speech, to offer a different perspective, a perspective that was not allowed. Some on the panel will be familiar to the audience. Some will be new faces. They come from diverse backgrounds, but they all share one attribute. Their eyes have been opened and once opened, they will not be closed.

The title for today's event is Federal Health Agencies and the Covid Cartel. What are they hiding? My eyes have been opened over the last several years, as I became aware of certain facts that have largely been suppressed, as well as policies pushed by the elite that made no sense to me and were contrary to the common good.

Two weeks ago, I received an email with an all too common story of heartbreak and despair. It was from a young man whose 36 year old wife's periods stopped within a couple of weeks of receiving her second Covid vaccine. They were recently married and planned on having children. I recommended they contact the front line Covid 19 Critical Care Alliance Flcc, one of the few groups of doctors attempting to treat vaccine injuries. Let me quote from his last email to me “we had already gotten Covid in February 2020. Alas, unless they can bring her ovaries back to life, I'm not sure Doctor Corey can help. It breaks my heart. She chose career, got the the baby family bug, and now she can't have children. She cries all the time. Apologizes to me like it's her fault. Someone needs to make them pay, and we need safeguards so that this doesn't happen again.” That pretty well sums up the purpose of today's public event, exposing the truth of what happened and holding people accountable so we can prevent a travesty like this from ever happening again.

Now, I'm sure the response from the Covid cartel will be something like, “Senator, fertility problems in 36 year old women are very common.” Just like former NIH Director Francis Collins told me when I asked about all the deaths being reported on Vaers, quote, “Senator, people die,” unquote. The fact that both of these statements are as true as they are callous highlights the challenge we face in exposing the truth.

On Thursday, February 15th, the House Select Committee on the Coronavirus Pandemic held a public hearing on the Covid vaccine. The subcommittee was not on what I would consider a fact finding mission. Instead, its purpose appeared to be rehabilitating federal health agencies that have lost the trust of many Americans and reinforcing the mantras that the vaccines are safe and effective. Vaccine injuries are rare, the benefits outweigh the risks, and that the science is clear and overwhelming. And anyone challenging this narrative is on is an anti-science conspiracy theorist. In other words, second, opinions are not allowed. To me, this attitude is the antithesis of science. True scientific inquiry starts with skepticism, challenging what we think we know but might not be so.

I believe the growing corruption of science, scientific research, medical journals, federal health agencies and as a result, the practice of medicine has been exposed in the failed response to the pandemic. To repair the damage that has been done, we must honestly and relentlessly pursue the truth. I am grateful to today's participants and to all those who are fearlessly doing just that.

One final point. I am amazed at the knowledge mankind has obtained. Over the millennia. But I would argue that what we don't know vastly exceeds what we do know. So as we pursue truth, we must pursue it with the humility that that reality demands.

Now. The title of this hearing is what are they hiding? My own evidence of that is, for example, over 60 oversight letters that I have written to the federal health agencies. This is just a small number covering two issues hot lots and the standard operating procedures of their analysis on vapors. But some of my first oversight letters were prompted by the emails that were released under FOIA. In June of 2021. These are Anthony Fauci's emails. Again, they were released under FOIA. In other words, somebody has to go to court. Even though members of Congress, we have the right to see these things, somebody had to take them to court, once they were released, about 4000 pages, we requested unredacted versions of these things on June 11th, 2021. By July, we received basically the same 4000 redacted pages. In September 2021, we requested only 400 of the 4000. We narrowed our our request in October 2021 through January 2022. They allowed us to look at 50 pages at a time in a reading room. We couldn't take copies. We could just take notes. We are down to the last 50 pages. They will not release these. It's been now going close to two years. This is what. Has been provided to us. Do you think there might be some incriminating information in this? Now, again, these are government documents. This is government federal, federal records. This should be made available to Congress. This should be made available to the American public. But it is not. So that's the Fauci emails. My my letters on hot lots. I've written four of them starting in December of 2021. The first letter compared 25,000 lots of Covid vaccine to 22,000 Lots of flu vaccine, one Covid lot had 5297 adverse reactions associated with it. The worst flu lot had 137, so 5300 versus 137 365. Covid lots had more than 100 adverse events. Only ten flu lots had more than 180% of the serious adverse events. Those with emergency room visits, hospitalization or death were associated with only 5% of lots. So again, to me, I'm from manufacturing. That shows to me a manufacturing process out of control. You know, took us a year to get some kind of response. And basically response from the ANC was we don't see any variation in lots. Okay. On January 29th, 2001, shortly after the emergency use authorization, the FDA and CDC issued a standing operating procedure on their analysis. They were going to do what they call proportional reporting ratios. I've written eight letters to the agencies on this. First of all, the CDC said we don't do the PRR wasn't done. Then later on, somebody in some context admitted that they were done. So we can't contact them about that. Contradictions. They admitted, okay, we did them. But what we're really doing is we're going to rely on a much better analysis, empirical Bayesian data mining. But we don't do it. The FDA does it so that so the runaround continued. And so we go to the FDA. To this day, we have not received any of the empirical Bayesian analysis that they said they're relying on. Why not? What are they hiding? Again. We pay their salaries, we fund their agencies, we fund these studies. The American people have a right to know. And they're not being given that knowledge.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Mich., a member of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, was asked by Fox News anchor Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures":

"So are you questioning whether or not there was a second shooter? Is that what you're questioning, or if the shooter had a different gun?"

Johnson responded:

"You know, I saw extremely convincing video online, I know it's all over the place. There were three distinct shots early on followed by another five more staccato, more rapidly fired, and then the final one which we believe took the shooter out.

"How to you explain that? I don't know, I'm not an expert. But the individual putting that video out says it clearly shows there were at least three different weapons fired that day.

"Again, I don't know, but we can't trust the FBI and the Secret Service to do an honest and open, transparent investigation, that's just a very sad fact. We've got to rely on other sources, independent, to really find out what the truth of the matter was on Saturday, July 13th.
