New documents show Wisconsin U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson’s phone records were obtained by the FBI during a now-shuttered investigation into President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 loss to former President Joe Biden.

Johnson, whose office was involved in attempting to get slates of false electors from Wisconsin and Michigan to former Vice President Mike Pence on Jan. 6, 2021, said the Biden-era surveillance of him and eight other Republicans “should shock every American.”

"...said the Biden-era surveillance of him and eight other Republicans “should shock every American.”

Oh, puh-leeeze!! It's been a known practice forever - regardless of who's in the White House. Why is it only a problem when it targets Republican politicians?
