In a bold move that flies in the face of Democratic gamesmanship, House Speaker Mike Johnson made the strategic decision to send Congress home early for the August recess. Why? To prevent a sham of a vote about the Epstein files—a Democratic trap that reeked of political grandstanding. It is apparent that Johnson sees through the charade of his liberal colleagues, who are already salivating at the thought of dragging out accusations and potentially harming innocent parties for their own political theater.
The Democrats want you to believe they’re seeking transparency. The truth is, they’re using the Epstein saga as a puppet show to divert attention from their own failures to address the real issues facing America. They are desperate to shift the narrative away from Biden’s floundering administration and its disastrous policies.
Moreover, while Johnson and other Republicans demand the release of all credible evidence concerning Epstein, they are also standing firm to protect innocent people ensnared in this scandal. Unlike the Democratic counterparts who are being reckless with their demands, Johnson is putting the welfare of vulnerable parties first—something the left conveniently overlooks in its hunt for headlines.
One cannot ignore the unwarranted zeal with which Democrats are willing to hijack the rules committee. With the left turning every institution into an Epstein hearing, it’s high time to recognize their agenda-driven politics are less about justice and more about holding onto power.
Yet, despite the Democrats’ plans being temporarily halted, Rep. Thomas Massie from Kentucky and his bipartisan allies still intend to keep the Democrat-engineered chaos alive when Congress resumes. Good luck to them, but Americans are growing tired of the circus. This ongoing drama fanned by Massie’s so-called discharge petition ignores the protections the innocent truly deserve.
This is the difference between the Democrats and real leaders—while one side is addicted to scandal and spin, champions like Johnson aim to uphold basic principles of justice and protect the innocent. Come the fall, the GOP will be ready to confront the Democrats’ reckless games. The question remains: when will the Democrats step up and start working for the American people instead of against them?
