US EditionSpeaker Johnson breaks with Trump, calls for DOJ to release Epstein files
UNITED STATES, JUL 17 – House Speaker Mike Johnson calls for full disclosure of Jeffrey Epstein files amid GOP divisions and public pressure, citing the DOJ's review of over 300 gigabytes of data.
- On Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson broke with President Trump by urging Attorney General Pam Bondi to 'come forward and explain', while also demanding the DOJ release all Epstein files.
- Last week, the Justice Department closed its Epstein investigation, stating there is no incriminating client list, after Attorney General Pam Bondi earlier this year claimed a list was 'sitting on my desk for review'.
- On the Benny Johnson Show, Johnson said he wants all Epstein evidence publicly released and supports Ghislaine Maxwell testifying before Congress.
- House Republicans voted to block the release of the Epstein files, rejecting the measure by a 211 to 210 margin.
- Looking ahead, Kentucky GOP Rep. Thomas Massie plans to file a discharge petition requiring 218 signatures to force a vote on releasing the complete Epstein files and notes a seven-legislative-day waiting period after signatures are secured.
