Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) told Fox News that bureaucrats within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have disrupted efforts to find information relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Again, we don’t know what we don’t know,” Johnson said. “We don’t know what HHS has. Bobby Kennedy doesn’t know what HHS has.”
“I mean, fortunately, now we have Bobby Kennedy, I think gaining a little bit more control over the agency,” Johnson said. “Remember, most of the people serving in these agencies have been there a long time, and they were involved in the cover-up. They were supposed to be surveilling for vaccine injuries and they weren’t.”
“So, you know, Bobby Kennedy has people in those agencies sabotaging his efforts at radical transparency,” he continued. “So this is like pulling teeth. So, I mean, I did not know they had government-issued phones. They’ve been sitting there, locked away somewhere.”
Johnson’s comments follow his office, alongside Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-KY), releasing text messages from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s government cellphone, revealing links between COVID-19 vaccine-related health issues and pregnancies.
The discussions of the vaccine’s safety for pregnant women involved Fauci, then-Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, and Dr. Vivek Murthy, who served as former President Joe Biden’s surgeon general.
“I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be aware of. Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester,” Fauci wrote in one message.
Walensky responded, “Definitely a good point, esp after dose two,” suggesting officials were aware of the risk of miscarriage, yet continued advocating for the vaccine. The information contrasts with what public officials claimed during the pandemic, as they asserted the vaccine was safe for pregnant women.
