Speaker Mike Johnson said he supports Ghislaine Maxwell testifying to Congress and demands the Department of Justice release everything they have on Jeffrey Epstein.

Said Johnson: “I’m for transparency. We should put everything out there and let the people decide. Pam Bondi needs to come forward and explain it to the American people. Let’s get this thing resolved.”

1. Translation, they've scrubbed or destroyed the evidence.

[newdeal2]

3. Yep

The weasel only speaks when Trump tells him to.

[Volaris]

16. Weasels the wrong descriptor. He's donald trumps House Elf

[Festivito]

34. Scrubbed as clean as 3 minutes of a prison monitor recording.

[La Coliniere]

21. That was my immediate thought too

when I heard this. He’d never approve of this if the slobfather was implicated in any of the illegal and perverted activities uncovered in regards to the Epstein case.

[damifino10]

28. It's a trick

My thoughts exactly. Devious bastards. They can't do anything and I mean anything, without an ulterior motive that makes them look like they are doing right. They don' do "right!"

[live love laugh]

30. Also trying to catch-and-kill the issue.

[Docreed2003]

2. I just have this sneaking suspicion

That the so-called files are quietly being scrubbed of any references to Trump.

Perhaps I'm being too cynical and rushing to territory

[FakeNoose]

23. I'll bet they were scrubbed back when Bill Barr had them in his weasel-y hands

Barr had two objectives in mind: remove anything that incriminates Chump (his then-current boss) and also make sure there was nothing about Barr's father in there.

Bill Barr's father may possibly have been the first blackmail victim of Jeffrey Epstein, however there's no way to prove it now. It's just that the circumstance of Mr. Barr (a high school principal) hiring Epstein to teach private school kids - when Epstein was only in his early 20s and had no college degree himself - looks very skeevy in retrospect. Now that we know how Epstein's career turned out.

32. BEING scrubbed? They've already been scrubbed.

[madashelltoo]

4. Johnson said,

An hour before the Scum King called and ripped him a brand new one.

[blogslug]

5. Then why didn't you vote for it, Mike?

Liar.

[Torchlight]

6. Speaker Johnson ensures the story's cycle continues.

They're not doing a very good job with this one.

[Tribetime]

7. Is I smell a big rat

[kentuck]

19. They were all covered by the Committee vote last night.

Since it never got out of Committee, the rest of them can say they are for releasing the Epstein files. But if it can't get out of Committee....?

[Lovie777]

8. Send him copies.....................

anywho I do not believe him.

[malaise]

9. He'd better start monitoring the floods heading for Louisiana later this week

Bet he’ll have a different approach to FEMA

[enid602]

10. Mike

Mike is probably not into little girls, so this is no skin off his ass.

[Kid Berwyn]

11. Quid: "I never saw Donald Trump rape anybody."

pro Quo: a pee-residuncil pardon.

[Johonny]

12. They got their big bill passed

He don't give a shit about Trump now.

[CentralMass]

37. They have their backup pen Vance and their rubber stamp Congress and SCOTUS

13. "I'm all for the transparency I specifically voted against." nt

[Raven123]

14. Maybe he has seen some bad poll numbers? Losing MAGA support?

[mahina]

15. "Mike Johnson Calls For Release of Curated Epstein Files"

FTFY

thanks. I will try to stay on the sunny side,

[Cha]

17. I saw a Vid in Cable news clips that Michael Wolf

has the tapes.

[Oneironaut]

18. They will release the "files," with nobody on them.

“See! That proves that it’s all a hoax!”

[Nasruddin]

20. They got the fake documents ready

Takes time to whip up a passel of phoneys, you know

[1WorldHope]

22. Didn't I just read congress just voted to block the Epstein files?

[Mr. Evil]

24. Jeffrey Epstein was a lot of things.

Don't mistake arrogance and deviance for stupid. I'd be willing to bet that he had shit-tons of information on every single person that indulged his offerings. And, they're sitting in a safe in a lawyer's office somewhere. Or, maybe with a trusted ally that's been paid up front to release everything once they receive the proper notification. Or, several copies of everything is stored in several locations with multiple people. Who knows? Ghislaine Maxwell has a lot of light on her right now. If anything happens to her that could be the cue to unleash the firestorm.

[CentralMass]

38. I suspe t that she is only still alive because she made contingency plansplsns

[bluestarone]

25. Their plan? TSF's plan more like it

Be ready for Democrats to be blamed with all their lies!! (Good ole Mike)

[kkmarie]

26. Perhaps holy Mike is thinking

If this can take down Krasnov and maybe even take vance out.... he's next on line for the presidency

[Scrivener7]

27. But didn't they just tell us there were none?

[nilram]

29. She's made a deal to indict only Democrats

Or at least, not the rump.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

31. Hmmmm, sounds suspicious to me!!

[live love laugh]

33. This is actually a win! The exposure of Trump while the issue is in the forefront is forcing them to "do SOMETHING".

[AntiFascist]

35. It's the images and videos that are probably most incriminating...

and I doubt that Johnson would advocate releasing child porn to the public.

[BoRaGard]

36. I smell a rat
