House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has claimed that the Democrats rushing toward a vote next week to release files linked to the sex trafficking investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is a part of the party’s “entire game plan.”
“President Trump has clean hands. He’s not worried about it. I talk to him all the time. He has nothing to do with this. He’s frustrated that they’re turning it into a political issue,” the Louisiana politician told host Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday.”
Johnson called the move “not surprising because the Democrats have nothing else to talk about.”
“What have they accomplished in 10 months? Epstein is their entire game plan,” he added.
Johnson’s remarks came after Bream played back a clip of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) saying, “The American people just deserve the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth as it relates to the Epstein files.”
