RUSH: I want you to hear a sound bite from Ron Johnson, Senate Homeland Security Governmental Affairs Committee hearing today on election security. The chairman of this committee is Ron Johnson, Republican, Wisconsin. And he and Gary Peters, who\u2019s the Democrat on the committee from Michigan, just listen to the bite. This is Ron Johnson telling Democrats and the deep state how they have lied for the last four years and now want to be totally excused and exonerated and essentially treated as though none of the last four years ever happened.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

JOHNSON: After our Hunter Biden investigation and the revelations of the Hunter Biden computer, said, “Oh, this is Russian disinformation.” Now we find out it\u2019s a real investigation by the Justice Department. So it\u2019s just galling, and I just have to point out that the purveyors of Russian disinformation, Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign, the DNC, the Steele dossier, the ranking member Peters accusing Senator Grassley and I of disseminating Russian disinformation.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s where the disinformation is coming. That\u2019s where the false information, the lies, the false allegations. I can\u2019t sit by here and listen to this and say that this is not disinformation, this hearing today. This is getting information we have to take a look at to restore confidence in our election integrity. We\u2019re not gonna be able to just move on without bringing up these irregularities, examining them, and providing an explanation.<\/p>\n

PETERS: Mr. Chairman, I gotta respond to that.<\/p>\n

JOHNSON: You lied repeatedly in the press that I was spreading Russian disinformation and that was an outright lie, and I told you to stop lying, and you continued to do it.<\/p>\n

PETERS: This is not about airing your grievances. Mr. Chairman you can\u2019t make…<\/p>\n

RAND PAUL: Judge Starr…<\/p>\n

PETERS: … false allegations and then drop it at that. This is terrible what you\u2019re doing to this committee and all of the great work that you talked about.<\/p>\n

JOHNSON: It\u2019s what you have done to this committee.<\/p>\n
