Sen. Ron Johnson on June 17 posted an op-ed to his X account in which he details how nearly 40,000 people died after receiving the Covid injection. The Wisconsin Republican also reveals how federal health officials hid safety concerns regarding the Covid shot from the American public.

Johnson, chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, calls the coverup the “biggest scandal” of his lifetime.
Will there ever be accountability?
Making that reality much more difficult is the fact that legacy media is not touching this story.
Johnson said the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, USA TODAY, and Fox Digital all declined or ignored requests to publish his op-ed.
NBC, ABC, PBS, CNN, and MSNow “all refused to cover my report,” the senator said.
In the op-ed, Johnson states that Peter Marks, the former director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), an FDA center which approves vaccines and is responsible for safety surveillance, was briefed that an algorithm used to analyze Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) data would “mask” or cover up adverse events.
Johnson writes that the team at CBER received data for over three months pointing to the danger of the Covid shots. Rather than spreading awareness and informing the public, Johnson said “they ordered the data analyst to ‘cease and desist’ and then lied to the American public that ‘they weren’t seeing safety signals.’”
Johnson also posted a Majority Staff Interim Report by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations which details how “Biden health officials purposely turned a blind eye toward COVID-19 vaccine safety signals.” The report also references cases of “‘Death and sudden death’ associated with the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines.”
