Sen. Ron Johnson articulated the belief that the Covid-19 pandemic was "preplanned by an elite group of people... for our loss of freedom" during an appearance Friday morning with FBN's Maria Bartiromo.
Johnson cited "Event 201," a pandemic preparedness event hosted in 2019 by the World Health Organization, Gates Foundation, and Johns Hopkins University that has been repeatedly cited by conspiracy theorists as a "practice run" for Covid-19.
