Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) was taken down a peg over his promotion of a long-debunked 9/11 conspiracy theory that he espoused on a far-right podcast Wednesday.

Johnson appeared on The Benny Show to discuss his desire for hearings on 9/11, specifically the destruction of Building Seven, which collapsed hours after terrorists flew jumbo jets into the Twin Towers. Johnson promoted the theory that the attack itself didn't cause Building Seven to collapse.

"There are a host of questions that I want, and I will be asking, quite honestly, now that my eyes have been opened up," Johnson told The Benny Show's podcast. ...

"Never forget!" was the motto of the first responders who rushed to the burning World Trade Center on 9/11, but 10 years on some say they have been abandoned by their country to fight cancer and mounting medical bills.

The Republican vying for the congressional seat left vacant by former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) says that a 9/11 health care law shouldn't cover workers who volunteered at Ground Zero.
