Republican Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has slammed “corrupt” media outlets for “covering up for the Democrats.”
The senator blasted the corporate media during an interview with Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures.”
“As corrupt as the Biden family is, and we’ve known this literally for years, the news media has, Sen. Grassley and I have, but what may be even more troubling is the corruption within federal law enforcement and inside a corrupt, complicit and dishonest media,” Johnson told Bartiromo.
“If we had an unbiased, honest media, first of all, we wouldn’t have the corruption inside federal law enforcement because they’d be holding people accountable,” he continued.
“They would have been screaming about being fed false information as a result, resulting from the Russian collusion hoax.
“But they’re not honest,” Johnson warned.
“They’re complicit in all of this, and they’re covering up for the Democrats.”
WATCH:
In March, the Washington Post and New York Times both admitted the authenticity of a laptop owned by Hunter Biden when the outlets reported on a tax investigation into the son of President Joe Biden.
A New York Post report on the laptop in October 2020 was censored by social media companies.
Meanwhile, the Washington Post and other left-wing outlets downplayed the story by falsely smearing it as “Russian disinformation.”
Johnson also blasted the FBI, saying something akin to the Church Committee, which investigated the conduct of the CIA and FBI in the 1970s after the resignation of President Richard Nixon, might be necessary to address what he called “corruption.”
“We need to uncover the corruption in federal law enforcement,” Johnson asserted.
“They’ve been hiding this.
“They’ve been sitting on a mountain of evidence.
“You know, we have whistleblowers said once that laptop was made public, they had it back in December of 2019.
“But once it was made public, they were — internally said do not look at that Hunter Biden laptop.”
Whistleblowers claim the FBI has pulled agents from child sex abuse cases to pursue cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol building in Washington, D.C.
Tony Bobulinski, a former business partner of Hunter Biden, claimed that former FBI agent Timothy Thibault hid incriminating evidence about Hunter Biden.
“We need to expose the corruption in federal law enforcement, but then also we need to expose the complicity and corruption of the media as well,” Johnson said.
