Senator Ron Johnson Weighs in on Reconciliation 3.0, Blasts Democrat’s Obstructionist Tactics- (VIDEO)

Senator Ron Johnson was on “Sunday Morning Futures” with host Maria Bartiromo to discuss topics including passing a budget. He blasted Democrats for their continued obstructionist tactics.

Bartiromo and Johnson also discussed anti-Semitism. They also talked about Dr. Anthony Fauci’s upcoming testimony this week in front of the US Senate regarding his handling of Covid.

Senator Johnson replaced the late Senator Lindsey Graham as the new Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee.

“You have a lot on your shoulders right now as Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, and I want to get to all of that in just a moment,” Bartiromo said.

Senator Johnson explained that Israel’s response to attacks is an expected response. He explained that if one of the neighbors of the US invaded and killed our own citizens, we would respond with a lot of force.

The Senator also commented that he is seeing a lot of anti-Semitism.

“I’m highly concerned by the way, of the rise of anti-Semitism,” Johnson said.

“Let me move onto the business at hand and that is of course, your budget work. The House passed a stop gap funding bill that would extend federal funding through December 4th in an attempt to avoid another government shutdown, which your colleagues on the left are threatening again,” Bartiromo said.

“I want to get your take on that as well as your work on reconciliation 3.0,” Bartiromo said.

“Where are you coming up with the offsets to what the House advanced, the $95 billion reconciliation 3.0 budget resolution? The passage in the Senate is unclear,” Bartiromo said.

“First, let’s recognize the Democrats have been obnoxiously obstructionist since President Trump took office. They refused to nominate or confirm his nominees. We had to end the 60-vote threshold on that just so we can establish his administration. They shut down the government for 42 days. They shut down DHS, refused to fund CBP and ICE,” Johnson continued.

“What are you expecting from Anthony Fauci, who will also testify in front of your committee this week?” Bartiromo asked.

“I think he’ll be very forgetful, completely unrepentant, arrogant, arrogant to the extreme. Don’t expect to get much out of him, but I am going to try and lay out all of the things that he did that was such a miserably failed response to Covid,” Johnson continued.
