The left are going to dive further into unpopularity. They might never recover from it.
And Democrats are in deep trouble according to this U.S. Senator.
Sen. Ron Johnson did not mince words Thursday night when he sat down with Laura Ingraham to talk about the congressional probe into Anthony Fauci.
The Wisconsin Republican made clear that Fauci faces real legal risk if investigators keep pushing.
“What could happen to him if they proceed to prosecute?” Ingraham asked during an episode of The Ingraham Angle on Fox News.
“Well, you’re the attorney. He could be convicted and might have to serve time. We also know that the attorney general from Florida is looking at state charges. Coach [Tommy] Tuberville, probably the next governor of Alabama, set his goal in life is to make sure that Anthony Fauci is in court every day,” Johnson stated.
That warning lands hard after years of Fauci being treated like an untouchable figure in Washington. Democrats still cling to the idea that he can do no wrong.
“He had the situation where he’s the hero still of the Democrats. I mean, they’re holding him out as, I mean, he’s a Nobel Prize winner and Medal of Honor, Freedom winner, all rolled into one,” Ingraham stated.
Johnson pointed out the awkward silence and deflection from Democrats who refuse to face what happened:
“Of course, you were in the hearing room. As devastating as that was for Anthony Fauci, I thought the Democrats just –”
“Embarrassed themselves,” Ingraham cut in.
“Yes, I mean, just put your head in the sand. I mean, so many Americans have had their eyes opened up to the corruption of these federal agencies. You know the corruption of Anthony Fauci. Their eyes are open. Why do the Democrats continue to bury their head in the sand? It’s not a good look,” Johnson responded.
The answer, according to both of them, sits right in the open. Too many people in power have skin in the game.
“Because they’re all implicated,” Ingraham stated. “Well, they’re all complicit. There’s no doubt about it,” Johnson replied.
Johnson took the point further, noting that the problem stretched far beyond Capitol Hill. Entire institutions pushed the same line without questioning the risks.
“By the way, that’s pretty well society-wide. Our medical establishment, our federal health agencies, politicians. I mean, how many – – how many elected officials you know did videos? Get that jab. They were completely — they were unaware of how dangerous those things really would be,” the senator continued.
Everyday Americans paid the price for that blindness. Families lost trust in the people who claimed to know best.
Schools stayed closed. Jobs disappeared. And the same voices that demanded compliance now act shocked when anyone demands answers.
