Benny Johnson is obsessed with the intersection of politics and the social web. He works day-to-day on curating Washington’s complex political discourse into a relatable, online dialogue for a socially native audience. Often times, that involves destroying flip phones with a blender and cooking bacon on a machine gun.

Benny is based in Washington D.C. and hails from Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
