What Is It About Wisconsin?

 The statement was the opening salvo in a coordinated effort over the next ten months to sabotage any public revelation of Hunter Biden's laptop or any wrongdoing connected to the Bidens[...]Perhaps the most egregious and effective act of sabotage against the truth was the public letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials who claim the laptop had, quote, “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation," unquote. That letter itself was an information operation that interfered with and impacted the 2020 presidential election to a far greater extent than anything Russia ever could've hoped to achieve. Each of those intelligence officials needs to be interviewed to determine how that letter was masterminded. 

From the testimony of Sen. Ron Johnson yesterday before the House Judiciary Committee.  One immediately wants to point out that calling for an investigation of this letter is "targeting" the 51 former intelligence officials who signed it.  It's also the kind of thing that would make Tailgunner Joe proud.  And then the newly re-elected Senator rambled on:

The fervor in which the Department of Justice has pursued those protesters and rioters stands in stark contrast to the lack of interest in the summer of 2020 rioters. Serious questions regarding instances of unequal application of justice and violation of January 6 defendants’ due process rights remain unanswered. SWAT team arrests and treatment of prisoners are legitimate concerns. Neither the Senate nor House investigations adequately explained why the Capitol was so woefully unprepared, or how many federal agents and informants were in the crowd. Covid has exposed the awesome power that can be misused by government officials. The loss of basic freedoms has been nothing less than breathtaking. Our response to the pandemic has been a miserable failure, a miserable failure. Over 1 million lives lost. The human toll of the economic devastation caused by shutdowns that did not work. And the loss of learning and other psychological harms to our children. Federal health officials denied patients early treatment and, to this day, refuse to acknowledge the extent of significant injuries caused by the Covid vaccines. Emails between Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins reveal how they intended to use their awesome government authority and power to accomplish a, quote, “devastating published takedown,” unquote, of scientists who offer a different approach to handling the pandemic.

Hand to God I think there's some kind of contagious dementia (Charlie Pierce calls it the "prion disease") that runs amok among these people, because for the life of me I still can't understand how he started with HUNTER BIDEN'S LAPTOP! and ended with Anthony Fauci.  But there it is in black and white.

And who the hell was in charge throughout that dystopian nightmare he describes?
