House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said that there will be no vote on some documents relating to the Jeffrey Epstein case before Congress breaks for the August recess.
Johnson made the announcement after “the House Rules Committee advanced the measure last week, and as the lower chamber prepares to break for the weeks-long August recess on Thursday,” per the Hill.
Johnson told reporters that the House will not vote on the resolution before the August recess, adding that he wants to give the Trump administration more time.
“Here’s what I would say about the Epstein files: There is no daylight between the House Republicans, the House, and the president on maximum transparency,” Johnson said in the Capitol on Monday. “He has said that he wants all the credible files related to Epstein to be released. He’s asked the attorney general to request the grand jury files of the court. All of that is in process right now.”
“My belief is we need the administration to have the space to do what it is doing and if further Congressional action is necessary or appropriate, then we’ll look at that,” he added. “But I don’t think we’re at that point right now because we agree with the president.”

But I want names now! I want the preverts names!
Johnson is going to do what Trump tells him to do. Trump stood by him when he was under attack, and he will do the same.
5000 pages, redact the victims but, open it all,
RELEASE THE KRAKEN. turn it over, we want NAMES
ALL OF THEM
Yea verily
(But I want names now!)
Speaker Johnson says no! Trump says no! Bondi says no!
No recess before a vote!
Well, then I want to go to recess with them and play kickball.
As my dad used to say, “$#!+ in one hand and want in the other, and see which one fills up faster”. Seriously, after Trump saved Johnson’s speakership, he’s going to do what he’s told.
The Stable Genius has NOTHING incriminating on a 40 year old white guy adopting a 18 year old black boy who’s now a convicted drug dealer? NOTHING?
We have to make certain that Maurene Comey or any other holdovers at FBI and DOJ did not alter or falsify the evidence to frame Trump or his allies.
Just look at what Daddy Comey, Brennan, Clinton and Obama did.
The DOJ donates 95% to Dems so that means that they’re not to be trusted and you can be sure a lot of them would falsify evidence.
Just look at this fake letter about Trump congratulating Epstein on his Bday that WSJ released.
I think this is where the holdup is.
These are procedural votes over how to proceed and who gets to be in charge of it all. Marjorie Taylor Greene went over this a few days ago.
What the Democrats and the press are making noise over, is the GOP not letting the Democrats take over via procedural votes.
The procedural vote passes, the Democrats take over the house. The Democrats take over the house, they can do whatever they want, no restrictions.
Does anyone, even the conservative press report that side of the story? Nooo...
It’s not up to Congress
As if that will accomplish anything ..you’re funny
There’s a lot in the can August 29th deadline Iran, Russia etc. etc.
And big girls....ask Hugh Hefner how that worked.
Everyone in Congress tells us they want to release the Epstein files, but no one in Congress will vote on the question.
Yes the MSM will have to rehash their TDS stories again.
This is getting past tiresome. Trump has decided, it’s done for now, beyond the DOJ releasing what the can and that likely is not much.
Sure, I’d like the disgusting people to pay a price but that probably can’t happen without a wide range of collateral damage.
