Sen. Ron Johnson is throwing his support behind Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's investigation into whether Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson misrepresented the safety of their COVID-19 vaccines, saying the probe cannot come fast enough.
>>"Well, it's about time," the Wisconsin Republican said Monday on the "Just The News No Noise" TV show. "I'm glad he's doing it."
Johnson said the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, which he said was "touted by the FDA" in the lead up to the emergency authorization to produce the vaccination, showed 35,000 deaths attributed to the vaccination.
>>"Twenty-five percent of those deaths are occurring either on the day of vaccination, or within one or two days – 35,000 deaths," he also. "Over one-and-a-half-million adverse events. And there are two complaints about VAERS. It doesn't prove causation."
Johnson also said the federal government and media outlets ignored the statistics and stories about severe – and potentially deadly – side-effects of the shots.
>>"I've been beside myself since … about March of 2021 as I started tracking the deaths when they were a couple thousand and just followed those right up to 35,000 deaths," he said. "And there's a collective silence on the part of our federal health agencies, the mainstream media, the Big Tech social media giants, and quite honestly, pretty much across the board."
Paxton, who also spoke with "Just The News No Noise" on Monday, outlined what the investigation will entail, saying that gain-of-function research will also be included in the probe.
