Senator Ron Johnson, a Republican from Wisconsin who has served multiple terms in the U.S. Senate, posted a series of tweets on September 10, 2025, questioning public health claims and voicing support for a congressional colleague.

In one post dated September 10, 2025, Johnson challenged the reported impact of COVID-19 vaccinations by referencing data from the Commonwealth Fund. He stated: "In order to believe the Commonwealth Fund’s claim that the COVID injection saved 3.2 million lives in 2021 and 2022, you’d have to assume total US deaths were going to increase from 2.85 million in 2019 and 3.38 million in 2020, and explode to 5 million in 2021.

Earlier that day, Johnson posted an uncaptioned tweet containing only a link: "https://t.co/ASIubNRrHI" (September 10, 2025).

Later on September 10, Johnson expressed agreement with another member of Congress by stating: "I couldn’t agree more with Congressman Tiffany. https://t.co/ZuNs5WWxdc".

Ron Johnson has maintained his seat through three consecutive election victories: defeating Russ Feingold in both the 2010 and 2016 general elections and overcoming Mandela Barnes in the closely contested race of November 2022.
