Senator Ron Johnson Attacks The Media For Cover Up Of Hunter Biden Scandals
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) during an interview with Just the News attacked the media and administration insiders for their cover up of Hunter Biden’s corruption scandals that may have involved his father and family. Senator Johnson said that such corruption “compromises our national security. President Biden never should have been elected…But even more troubling is what this says about our federal law enforcement or intelligence agencies, the complicity and corruption of the media, covering all this up and orchestrating it all.”
Johnson made note of that the corporate press tried to normalize the sweetheart plea deal offer to Hunter Biden as being the standard dealing by the Department of Justice and how this analysis was totally erroneous. “I also heard last week of mainstream media saying if this were any other ordinary American, there never would have been any charges against Hunter Biden, his tax offenses were so minimal… And we know from good reporting from from people like John Solomon and others, Hunter Biden probably hasn’t paid taxes on a whole lot of other under unreported income as well” said the Wisconsin lawmaker.
The Badger State Senator mused that “So now, the media, they will never admit they’re wrong…They’re going to continue to minimize the behavior, the Biden’s are going to continue to cover up for them. Because let’s face it, they helped get this guy elected. And even they have to understand what a disaster his presidency has been for this country.”
Mr. Johnson highlighted the importance of airing this dirty laundry to the public as a means of accountability but also observed the problematical undermining of such efforts by insiders within the government that occurred both during Trump’s presidency and now. “Well, you have to first expose it. Now, one thing I don’t think we’re paying enough attention to is an awful lot of this obstruction occurred under the Trump administration” said the Republican Senator.
He added that “trust me President Trump wanted this information out, I’m sure he would have liked to have seen an honest investigation prosecution of Hunter Biden. But that just shows you how pervasive and extensive the deep state is…The Radical Left partisans have infiltrated every institution of this country, including our our federal government agencies. And this is just further evidence of that.” Johnson suggested that the judge for the Hunter plea deal should reject its terms for the president’s son to suffer only probation for a plea of guilty on two tax crimes and a gun charge due to the level of political inference that went into the investigation and charging.
In another interview with Newsmax, he expanded on these ideas:
Robert Barnes, a tax lawyer, observed the unusual terms of the deal. “As a criminal tax lawyer for a near quarter-century, I confirm how rare & extraordinary the…plea deal is. Indeed, the deal violates DOJ Tax official policy, where Biden’s DOJ prohibit prosecutors from even offering this deal to people who did far less than Hunter.”

He emphasized that such a deal could only lawfully come from approval from the top.
A key: the sweetheart deal given to #HunterBiden required the approval of high ranking Biden DOJ officials, by law, as a matter of their delegation rules.
