The case regarding Jeffrey Epstein is now having an effect on the House.

The vaunted Jeffrey Epstein yarn has managed to halt the House prior to the planned August leave.

According to Newsmax, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., has tried to block Democrat efforts to force votes on Epstein files release before Ghislaine Maxwell deals to speak are hashed out.

“With floor paralyzed over the Epstein case, House GOP leaders have canceled Thursday vote,” Punchbowl News editor John Bresnahan posted Tuesday on X. “Last vote before August recess is tomorrow afternoon.”

“The House won’t vote again until Sept. 2.”

The Justice Department announced it will hold a meeting with former Epstein facilitator Ghislaine Maxwell, and a House Oversight subcommittee voted by voice to subpoena Maxwell.

“I don’t know anything about it,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office during an unrelated state visit.

“Seems like something appropriate to do. I don’t follow it too much. It’s sort of a witch hunt.”

The calls to clear up the Epstein case and a possible commutation of Maxwell’s sentence in exchange for clarity on the saga remains a conflict-ridden issue among Americans and politicians alike.

“I led Republicans in a serious resolution — that protects victims — to expose the truth about the Epstein files, just like President Trump promised,” Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., wrote on X. “But leadership is stalling.”
