The most serious take on Sen. Ron Johnson's comments.

What should be the most concerning is Sen. Johnson claiming that "an informant" has come forward with information of a "secret society" existing within the FBI with the goal of undermining the administration.

This is a lie.

Sen. Johnson knows it is a lie.

Sen. Johnson went before cameras and asserted that there is a conspiracy of rogue agents within the FBI who harbor treasonous intent toward the government.

Take that in.

breaks with uncertainty. Who taught this guy how to lie? He needs lessons from Trumpy, who's the Grand Master.

Mudding the waters on Mueller's investigations. Talk about un-patriot, and that the GOPers have sold their souls to mother Russia. These people do not care about the well being of the USA's citizens (maybe only the rich ones).
