(Hill) Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) rebuked Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) on Tuesday evening for “peddling conspiracy theories” about the 9/11 attacks.
Johnson, in an interview this week with a conservative influencer, said he wants to hold additional hearings on the attack on the World Trade Center complex in New York City, after watching a documentary and speaking to others who doubt the government’s probe into the attack that killed nearly 3,000 people, including hundreds of first responders.
“There are a host of questions that I will be asking, quite honestly, now that my eyes have been opened up,” Johnson said.
Lawler tore into the comments, calling them “crap.”
