I was aware that we got this package and that somebody wanted us to deliver it so we reached out to Pences office.
Asked who tried to give him the alternate slate of electors, Johnson said: I have no idea.
Johnson argued he had no involvement in the effort to provide fake electors to overturn Bidens win and downplayed the situation as a non-story. He said whole thing lasted a few mins

Replying to @mkraju
Johnson: I had no involvement in an alternate slate of electors. I had no idea thisd even be delivered to us, got delivered staff to staff. My chief of staff did the right thing, contacted the Vice President's staff. They said they didn't want it so we didn't deliver it.

Caught up with Ron Johnson again and asked him why he offered something to Pences office without vetting the information. We got handed an envelope that was supposed to go to the Vice President, I didnt know. Says it came from a House office. Doesnt know which one.

(35,701 posts)The robbers are just as guilty even if "the whole thing lasted a few minutes." How stupid is Senator Johnson, anyway?

Sedition.

Definitely would resonate with the Fox crowd.

(14,275 posts)Probably an intermediary he met on his infamous 4th of July trip to Moscow. You know. The guy who most likely offered him a payout in exchange for selling out his country.
It's not that hard to figure out when they do their sedition out in the open.
