Mike Johnson accused Democrats of ā€œcherry pick[ing] three emails out of 20,000 documentsā€ to ā€œtry and imply that the president was guilty.ā€

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 ā€œentire game plan.ā€

ā€œPresident 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,ā€ the Louisiana politician told host Shannon Bream on ā€œFox News Sunday.ā€

Johnson called the move ā€œnot surprising because the Democrats have nothing else to talk about.ā€
