President Donald Trump and his administration have been trying to distance themselves from the Epstein Files, and on Friday, a Republican shocked the MAGA fanbase by claiming that Trump was a government snitch.
“What Trump is referring to is the hoax that the Democrats are using to try to attack him,” House Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters.
“He has never said or suggested or implied—I’ve talked to him about this many times, many times. He is horrified. It’s been misrepresented,” Johnson continued.
BREAKING: Mike Johnson just claimed that Trump “was an FBI informant” to help take down Jeffrey Epstein.
If this is the case then Trump would be a hero after it’s all released in the Epstein Files.

”He’s not saying that what Epstein did is a hoax. It’s a terrible, unspeakable evil. He believes that himself. When he first heard the rumor, he kicked him out of Mar-a-Lago. He was an FBI informant to try to take this stuff down.”
The Epstein files have threatened Trump’s presidency after he reneged on his campaign promise to release them to the public. Earlier this week, victims of the late billionaire financier held a press conference and threatened to release their own list if the administration did not do the right thing.
Despite the new story, MAGA is still finding the informant story hard to believe.
>Epstein files on desk
>files don’t exist
>influencer binder photo-op
>thousands of videos
>actually its a Democrat hoax
>if you believe it, you’re not MAGA
>actually, the files were released
>no actually Donald Trump is an FBI informantWhat the hell is this sh*t show??
