House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said in an interview that aired Thursday that files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are “not a hoax.”
“It’s not a hoax, of course not,” Johnson said in an interview with CBS News’s Major Garrett on “The Takeout,” which Mediaite highlighted.
“I mean, they are real victims here, but that’s part of a delicate — the balance that’s being done here is, I tried to explain in my press conference this week, man, we want full disclosure. If I had — if I had these things in my possession, I would have put them out a long time ago, but I would also have been very careful to protect the innocent,” the Speaker added.
President Trump and his administration have recently been facing pressure from both sides of the aisle over Epstein’s case, with the saga also throwing Congress into chaos.
