Grok: In July 2025, Speaker Johnson said at a press conference that he did not understand Massie’s motivation for a discharge petition forcing Epstein file releases under the Trump administration (rather than earlier under Biden). He preferred Oversight Committee review for stronger victim protections and added “bless his heart.” The petition later forced a House vote and major releases. Massie has continued similar efforts into 2026.
