Ron Johnson won't testify to the Jan. 6 Committee because he only plotted to overthrow the election for "a couple seconds."

"I had virtually no involvement!" he said. "Literally, my involvement lasted seconds. OK?"

From his own lips: "We didn't deliver them because we found out they didn't want it (the alternate slate) delivered." "I received three emails and sent two."

It is called conspiracy, whether you accomplished it or not. Whether it was for three seconds or not. Whether it was going to work or not.

What would the J6 Committee want to talk to you about? The names of those who asked you to work on the alternate electors, the names of those who told you that Pence wouldn't accept them, who the emails came from, and who you sent emails to. Stuff like that.
