Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., says the Secret Service is “completely arrogant” and is either incompetent or corrupt after the agency claimed it did not have several years of emails on Hunter Biden’s travels, despite the fact that his laptop showed otherwise.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Johnson have spent years attempting to obtain records of communications between President Joe Biden’s son and the Secret Service.
While the law enforcement agency said it did not have communications from 2010, 2011, or 2013, Just the News found that Hunter Biden’s laptop, which is now in FBI custody, contained about five dozen emails between him and the Secret Service.
“We’ve been after these travel records for years,” Johnson told “Just the News – Not Noise” on Wednesday. “Here’s what they did provide us. This is what it looks like,” Johnson said as he held up two pages almost entirely with black redactions to show Just the News Editor-in-Chief John Solomon and co-host Amanda Head.
He said the Secret Service provided him and Grassley with more than 250 redacted pages after they requested information on Hunter Biden’s travel records.
“Hunter Biden has [a record of communications]. Why didn’t the Secret Service retain it?” Johnson asked.
“So I can only come to two conclusions; I can make two assumptions. Either it’s complete incompetence, or corruption. Take your pick. Either way, there’s not a good explanation,” he said.
Johnson has been pressing the Secret Service for transparency for years. More recently, he asked the department’s director last month why agents did not find a pipe bomb reportedly placed outside the Democratic National Committee during a sweep of the area before then-Vice President-elect Kamala Harris arrived there on Jan. 6, 2021.”I’m getting sick and tired of these agencies in the deep state. And I’ll call it the deep state, because they refuse to […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
