Fox Reporter Grills Speaker Johnson Over Refusal to Swear In New Democrat  And the Epstein Files
"No. Let's talk about Grijalva and Epstein. Okay, once more for everybody. Everybody in Congress, I think, is for maximum transparency of the Epstein files. That is underway right now. Let me point out before I go further: all of the files were in the possession of the Biden-Harris Department of Justice for four years. Every single thing that we're talking about right now was in their sole possession, Johnson replied, pivoting to attack the Democrats. They could have released it."
"Ro Khanna, all the Democrats who are jumping up and down making noise about this, didn't say a peep about it for four years. I don't know why, but this is another partisan-manufactured thing, Johnson continued, adding: Is it a serious problem? Yes. I have sat with the victimssome of the ladies who bravely have come forward and talked about the horrors that they sustained because of traffickers on Epstein Island and all the things he was involved in."
House leader Mike Johnson has not sworn in Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva despite her written request and prior statements offering to swear her in. A correspondent asked whether the delay fuels perceptions related to the Epstein files. Johnson asserted that maximum transparency for Epstein-related files is underway and emphasized that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice held the files for four years. Johnson criticized Democrats for not raising the issue earlier and characterized the uproar as partisan-manufactured. Johnson acknowledged the seriousness of the crimes, affirmed support for exposing perpetrators, and noted many victims remain unreported.
