GOP Sen. Ron John the clown who pledged to only serve for two terms, poised to run for third.

Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin — who was first elected in 2010 as part of the Tea Party wave and previously pledged to serve for only two terms — is poised to run for reelection to a third term in the upper chamber, according to GOP sources who spoke with multiple outlets.

The development would give the GOP its preferred candidate in the hotly-contested Midwestern swing state and comes after months of intense speculation about Johnson's political future.

Two sources recently told CBS News that Johnson would launch his campaign next week, but the senator was still coy about his intentions for the fall contest, which will be pivotal for both parties as they seek control of the Senate for the second half of President Joe Biden's first term.

"I'm not ready to say anything," Johnson told CNN this week when asked if he would make his campaign announcement in the coming days.
