Ron Johnson Calls Biden ‘The Don’ Who ‘Sits Above All the Criminal Activity’ When Pressed By Bartiromo For ANY Evidence of Crimes

 

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) compared President Joe Biden to a mafia ‘don’ after Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo pressed him for evidence of crimes committed by the commander-in-chief.

Lawmakers in the House interviewed Hunter Biden as part of the GOP’s impeachment inquiry into the president on Wednesday morning. Johnson spoke with Bartiromo — who claimed Biden was “completely complicit” in his family’s alleged crimes.

Republicans in the House have accused Biden of profiting from his family’s foreign business dealings while he served as a Senator from Delaware and later vice president under former President Barack Obama.

But Johnson struggled to list specific evidence of wrongdoing by the president when pressed by Bartiromo, and instead vaguely compared him to a mafia “don.”

BARTIROMO: Well, look, the Republicans have to prove that Joe Biden was aware, is aware and participated in this influence peddling, right. And I know that there were at least two checks that they’ve identified that went directly to President Biden, and one was 10% for the big guy. It was $40,000 from an overall $400,000, which came from China. But I want to get your take on specifics in terms of, evidence that shows the president’s hands are dirty here.

JOHNSON: Well, first of all, he’s lied repeatedly. Why do you lie if you have nothing to cover up? President Biden is the don of the Biden crime family. You know, oftentimes a Don’s kind of sit above all the the criminal activity that occurs, but they’re fully responsible for it. It was his name that they were peddling. It’s it’s, you know, his position that garnered millions of dollars from China and from Ukraine and from Russia. He is the head of the family. He was fully aware of it. He lied about the fact that he was aware of it. And so, I mean, I think he’s completely complicit.

Hunter told the House Oversight and Judiciary Committee in a closed-door deposition that his father was “never” involved in his business dealings.
