Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) got a disgusted sigh from Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner on Tuesday after he informed her that he had evidence that President Joe Biden’s embattled son Hunter had spent thousands on sex-trafficked prostitutes.
Johnson joined the popular anchor for a wide-ranging discussion, and the topic turned to Hunter Biden’s growing legal woes — and the possibility that he could soon face indictment from the Department of Justice.

“One thing we don’t talk enough about, I know President Biden’s just ‘so proud’ of his son, but let’s — you know, we have the evidence that Hunter Biden paid for, paid tens of thousands of dollars for prostitutes that were sex trafficked through an international sex trafficking ring.”
“Ewww,” was Faulkner’s audible reaction.
“I mean — yes, ick,” Johnson agreed, adding, “And President Biden, during about a four to five month period, offered to pay for about $100,000 of Hunter Biden’s bills when he was spending tens of thousands of dollars on these women who were sex trafficked.”
“Now, that is at a minimum morally reprehensible and wrong, and the president is defending that?” Johnson continued. “And the media isn’t even looking into it —”

“Well, wouldn’t that be a felony?” Faulkner asked then. “You’re doing business with a sex trafficking ring? That’s more than ethically offensive.”
“It is grotesque,” Johnson agreed, lamenting the fact that by and large, legacy media outlets wanted nothing to do with the story. He noted that the evidence supporting his claim — along with the financial transactions that he had mentioned regarding Joe Biden’s willingness to foot the bill — had been included in his report, but that no one wanted to talk about it. “It’s just galling to hear the president talk about how proud he is of Hunter, and he enables this.”
The segment comes less than 24 hours after liberal Fox News contributor Juan Williams offered a full-throated defense of both Hunter — who he said was simply an addict — and President Joe Biden, who he claimed was not guilty of anything more serious than acting as a concerned father.
