Johnson says Biden was completely unaware of an executive order he signed. The comments from Johnson came during an interview with @bariweiss.

Johnson said after fighting for 9 weeks with Biden's staff, he was finally able to get a meeting with the president.

When he arrived, Johnson says he was "ambushed" by Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries.

Biden, who apparently didn't know what was going on, asked the others to leave so he could meet privately with Johnson.

"It occurred to me he was not lying to me. He genuinely did not know what he had signed. I walked outta that meeting with fear and loathing because I thought, 'We are in serious trouble.'"
