House Speaker Mike Johnson Alleges Trump Acted as FBI Informant in Epstein Case
In a statement that has ignited significant controversy, House Speaker Mike Johnson has claimed that former President Donald Trump secretly worked as an FBI informant to assist in dismantling Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking network.
The allegation was made during a Capitol Hill press event on Friday, where Johnson came to the defense of the former president. He pointed to Trump’s past cooperation with authorities in 2009 and his decision to ban Epstein from his Mar-a-Lago club as evidence of his role in exposing the crimes.
This assertion emerges amidst growing public and political pressure to unseal documents related to the Epstein case. Johnson’s comments aim to portray Trump as a pivotal, behind-the-scenes figure in the fight against Epstein’s network. However, the claims have been met with skepticism from critics, who are demanding full transparency and the release of all relevant files to verify the nature and extent of Trump’s alleged involvement.
The episode adds another layer to the ongoing scrutiny surrounding the Epstein case and the powerful figures associated with it.
