Republican Ron Johnson says it 'may be true' that COVID vaccines cause AIDS
https://www.rawstory.com/republican-ron-johnson-says-it-may-be-true-that-vaccines-cause-aids/


In a video interview published on the right-wing social media platform Rumble, Sen. Ron Johnson said it “may be true” that vaccines against COVID-19 cause AIDS.

Johnson was being interviewed by anti-vaccine lawyer Todd Callender, who alleged that the shots induce AIDS and that the FDA knew so when the vaccines were approved for emergency use.

“The way to approach this is from a criminal point of view because that’s what has happened. And until we start holding people accountable, [Dr. Anthony] Fauci number one, you’re going to see people still falling out, still getting sick,” Calendar said. “You’ve got more than a hundred doctors here, all of whom will tell you that these shots caused vaccine-induced AIDS. they purposefully gave people AIDS. They knew this.”

Johnson responded that it’s possible the allegations are true, but that anti-vaccine activists need to wait for public opinion to be on their side before criminally charging health officials.

They keep electing these incompetent, lying buffoons, even after they're exposed for being incompetent, lying buffoons.

This guy should be mocked out of society, not elected to public office.

Thanks to decades of programming, the general population in this country has been brainwashed to believe that all things can be settled in less than 20 minutes. (Television time.) That no one's more important than yourself in any and all situations. And, that politicians should be more like cult leaders than intelligent problem solvers. It worked. Thanks to prime time and modern sales practices, we cannot handle anything that does not bring instant gratification and personal enrichment. And, we don't want to.

So, when charging public health officials with murder, actual facts don’t matter. We’re just waiting until enough people believe our bullshit lies about Anthony Fauci.

apparently that SenJohnson is having some. AIDs, first appeared in June 1981. Scientists found and identified it in 1984, it originated in Central Africa among chimpanzee's and crossed to humans as far back as the 1800s.
