Sen. Ron Johnson is warning that corrupt left-wing actors have "infiltrated" major U.S. institutions to control narratives in ways that are destructive to the U.S.
Johnson spoke after he had testified at the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponizaton of the Federal Government on Thursday. The subcommittee was hearing from top lawmakers, FBI officials and legal experts about how the Justice Department has allegedly taken aim at the civil liberties of American citizens.
