On 2/8/2022, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) accused Biden’s choice for his antisemitism envoy of spewing “malicious poison” for calling out lawmakers—including him—over white supremacist advocacy. Lipstadt had criticized Johnson last March, “This is white supremacy/nationalism. Pure and simple,” she said. Although she apologized for her comments against Johnson not being “nuanced” enough, he tore into her anyway, insisting she is “not qualified” to serve as the antisemitism envoy. “You have engaged in the malicious poison and vile and horrible charges against people including me that you don’t even know,” Johnson said.

Lipstadt told Johnson that she regretted the tweet and said she was describing her views on an outlook, not Johnson personally. He would not have it, but he thanked Lipstadt for expressing her regret about the tweet, noting Menendez had never apologized for a similar accusation he made against Johnson on the Senate floor.
