RoJo vaults to 1st-place in 'Who Wants To Be Trump's Biggest Brown Noser?'

Wisconsin's GOP Senator and man who needs a Tums - Ron Johnson - 


is jumping ahead of Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell in the ongoing US Senate drama, 'Who Can Be Trump's Biggest Brown-Noser?'

Ron Johnson threatens subpoena over Hunter Biden's Ukraine work
The subpoena seeks records from a Democratic public affairs firm.
Oh, so now we need witnesses and subpoenas?

What makes Johnson's quest for Trump's favor so cravenly insidious is that, unlike Senators McConnell and Graham, both of whom are fighting for their political lives and future pension uppers, Johnson isn't on a 2020 ballot and faces no political challenge unless or until he runs for Wisconsin Governor in in the next statewide election cycle.

Johnson's loyalty to Trump is rooted in the big business belief that the privately-owned corporations which they still have a hand in require that the public sector and regulations which help everyday people must be killed off, so to serve themselves, Johnson will follow Trump to the ends of the earth.

And by Trump's firing the government's top pandemic response manager and  700 Centers for Disease Control personel -

Several positions are in the Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response, which regulates some of the world's most dangerous bacteria and viruses and manages the nation's stockpile of emergency medical countermeasures. 
Others include positions in the director's office, infectious disease offices and the office for noncommunicable diseases, injury and environmental health.
 - and hundreds of additional scientists across the government - 
Dan Costa, who worked at the EPA for 34 years before stepping down as director of its air, climate and energy research program in January 2018, said the tipping point for his retirement came when an EPA spokesman undercut a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine that the agency had funded.
The study found that long-term exposure to levels of soot and smog lower than current national standards can cause premature death among older Americans. Such a finding suggests that current standards don’t adequately protect public health, which would have implications for industries that pollute. An unidentified EPA spokesman attacked the study in an interview with the Washington Times, an act Costa called “scientifically unethical.”
- when climate emergencies and a disease pandemic are our new realities, Johnson just may get his wish.

Headline: The stupidity of Ron Johnson has reached near-critical mass! Democrats release evacuation plan!

There now exists a real danger that Russian Ron's cranial density is rising to a level where the sheer mass of his accumulated stupidity may collapse upon itself, creating a black hole into which all intelligence within the event horizon is doomed to annihilation.

"The unmitigated stupidity of this creature is likely unstoppable," say JPL scientists. Astrophysicists have designated Johnson a singularity, noting the attractive force of the monumental idiot and the monumentally idiotic things he says draws in smaller idiots and morons, forming a Stupid Nebula.
