Senator Ron Johnson on Corruption, Elon’s DOGE, RFK Jr. and Trump Presidency | EP 213

In this episode, I had the privilege of talking with Senator Ron Johnson. We discussed his recent Senate roundtable on American health and nutrition that he invited me to speak at recently, RFK Jr. and the likelihood of his cabinet appointment, institutional corruption, and more. We spoke at some length about the revolving door in Washington and how it effectively hands control of regulatory agencies over to pharma and big agriculture. We also explored the critical role of education and public awareness and our new age of podcast politics in waking people up to corruption in government. Senator Johnson also shared insights into how mainstream media and political institutions shape public perception–including the smear campaign currently going on against RFK Jr. We spoke about the surprising shift of the country away from the radical left toward populism and the center, and the path toward rebuilding trust in our government. Enjoy! Ron Johnson was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2010 after running a successful manufacturing business in Oshkosh, Wisconsin for thirty years. From 2015-2021, he was Chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and remains a member of it. He currently serves as Ranking Member (soon-to-be chairman) of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations and is also a member of the Budget and Finance committees. Senator Johnson has been a staunch advocate for the vaccine injured, stating that injuries are “real, serious, and not all that rare.” In 2022, he ran for reelection for a third time so that he could continue investigating the corruption surrounding our federal health agencies and Big Pharma and how they have harmed Americans’ health.
