'''Ronald Harold "Ron" Johnson''' (born April 8, 1955<ref name="CONGbio"/>) is an Oshkosh businessman and a [[conservative populism|populist conservative]] Republican United States Senator from [[Wisconsin]]. He defeated incumbent Democrat [[Russ Feingold]] in the 2010 election, and then defeated him again six years later in a stunning upset compared with polling. Johnson ran ahead of [[Donald Trump]] in [[Wisconsin]] 2016 by 74,000 votes and thereby helped him unexpectedly carry that state by less than 23,000 votes.<ref>Johnson was endorsed by the [[Tea Party Movement|Tea Party]] and the [[Senate Conservatives Fund]].</ref>

Senator Johnson courageously held multiple hearings against the [[liberal]] interference with early treatment of [[COVID-19]], and only he spoke out at another hearing against the use of agent [[provocateur]]s by [[Leftist]]s at the January 6th protests at the [[United States Capitol Building|Capitol]].

Johnson's reelection in 2022 was a defeat for [[Fauci]] and the [[vaccine police]], whose failed approach to [[COVID-19]] has been widely rejected by voters. [[Dem]]s did not even campaign on Fauci's record. More than $150 million was spent on the Johnson-Barnes contest in the [[2022 midterm elections]], and the [[Dem]] campaign itself outspent Johnson's campaign by 2-1, yet Johnson won.<ref>https://www.wpr.org/mandela-barnes-outraises-ron-johnson-8m-latest-us-senate-campaign-finance-reports</ref>
