Wherein the Senator from Wisconsin—like the late Senator Joseph McCarthy from Wisconsin—tries to weaponize his committee.

3. #RonJohnson acknowledged on Hugh Hewitt show that Republicans on his Committee are concerned about his actions.

"We had a number of my committee members who were highly concerned about how this looks politically."
4. Note-1: Those Republicans were concerned about Sen. Johnson's investigation even before Politico's @kyledcheney reported that Johnson publicly admitted the investigation's partisan agenda.
5. Note-2: Sen. Johnson said those Republicans on his Committee have stalled/prevented his getting other subpoenas approved (and not just the subpoena of Russia-linked Ukraine operative).
What a train wreck.
