Is there a five-second rule in Insurrection, there certainly isn’t one in destroying Social Security and Medicare.
x Our ancestors created Social Security. Ron Johnson's idea would destroy it, and Medicare along with it.

Ron Johnson : "Senior citizens should not be getting Medicaid and Medicare for free."
During a recent interview, WISN's Matt Smith asked Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) if he would agree to speak to the Jan. 6 Committee.
"No, I had nothing to do with Jan. 6," Johnson said.
"If they asked you to testify, would you?" Smith wondered.
"What would they ask me to testify about?" Johnson said.
"The Republican electors," Smith noted, referring to a fake slate of electors that Johnson was asked to deliver to then-Vice President Mike Pence in an effort to steal the election from Joe Biden.
"Again, another grotesque distortion," Johnson complained. "I had nothing to do with the alternate slate. I had no idea anybody was going to ask me to deliver those. My involvement in that -- that attempt to deliver spanned the course of a couple seconds."
The senator said that he "fielded three texts and sent two and talked to my chief of staff that somebody wants to deliver something."
