Senator Ron Johnson, a Republican representing Wisconsin and a member of several Senate committees, has recently made several statements on social media regarding the filibuster, COVID-19 vaccine safety, and alleged corruption during the Biden administration’s handling of the pandemic.
On May 1, 2026, Johnson urged public participation in a poll about the filibuster conducted by Senator Mike Lee. He wrote, “I encourage everyone to participate in Mike Lee’s poll on the filibuster.”
The following day, Johnson commented on COVID-19 vaccine safety. On May 2, 2026 he posted: “We didn’t need a sophisticated algorithm to see that the COVID injection was causing a great deal of harm. The massive volume of adverse events was a safety signal screaming at all of us.”
On May 4, 2026 Johnson addressed concerns over alleged corruption during the previous presidential administration’s response to COVID-19. He stated: “Yes, they did. Americans deserve to know the corruption that occurred under the Biden administration during the COVID pandemic. My investigation has only just begun.”
