"I don't know anything about that. I didn't see the interview. You have to ask the president about that. I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that literally I was walking in. I've just read it. I didn't talk with him about that. I don't know the latest developments. That's the first I've heard of that. I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that, so I'm not going to comment on it."
"MOSKOWITZ: And you know the one thing we don't have about Joe Biden? We don't have him on camera of being asked a question, do you know about this pardon, and Joe Biden going, no, know nothing about it. (CROSSTALKS) MOSKOWITZ: We got Trump. We got Trump right there for the American people to see, Trump going, no, don't know this guy, Zhao, don't know anything about it."
Multiple video clips show House Speaker Mike Johnson repeatedly responding "I don't know" or deferring to President Trump when asked about controversies tied to Trump, including the pardon of Changpeng Zhao. Panelists pointed out the contrast between Johnson's blanket denials of knowledge and expectations of oversight or moral clarity when criticizing political opponents. The repeated denials often included phrases like "I didn't see the interview," "I just heard about that," and "I'm not going to comment on it." The pattern of claimed ignorance was presented as undermining claims of righteous indignation and as evidence of a disconnect between public awareness and congressional response.
