Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) is speaking up in defense of the filibuster rule amid Democrats\u2019 attempt to jam election reform through Congress. In an <a href=\"https:\/\/dehayf5mhw1h7.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1494\/2022\/01\/22091134\/Senator-Ron-Johnson-1-23-22.mp3\">interview<\/a> Sunday, he said the those on the left are willing to destroy the Senate to get their way on changing election laws to their liking.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tonight I voted against Senate Democrats\u2019 radical attempt to destroy Senate filibuster rules. <\/p>\n<p>My full statement: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/khqOPzdlgD\">pic.twitter.com\/khqOPzdlgD<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Senator Ron Johnson (@SenRonJohnson) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenRonJohnson\/status\/1484025216967880706?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 20, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Wisconsin senator stressed Democrats do not have a mandate to fundamentally change our country in a 50-50 Senate. Last week, Democrat election reform bills failed on the Senate floor. Johnson pointed out Americans are not looking for an election reform, which would turn America into a one-party state.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cIt\u2019s important to slow down debate, to not allow partisanship bills to get just get rammed through the Senate to change society significantly, he stated. \u201cI know Democrats want to fundamentally transform America, but I don\u2019t think most people do. Do you like, much less do you even love something that you want to fundamentally transform? I don\u2019t think you do.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Johnson went on to say nobody is suppressing the vote in today\u2019s America contrary to Democrat claims, while election integrity is a pressing issue.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cAmericans by and large love this country,\u201d the senator continued. \u201cWe understand, they understand what made it great. It\u2019s individuals, it\u2019s freedom.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h5>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/oan-speaks-with-participants-of-defeat-the-mandates-rally\/\">OAN Speaks With Participants Of \u2018Defeat The Mandates\u2019 Rally<\/a><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1235350","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235350","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1235350"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1235350\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1235350"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1235350"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1235350"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
