A special election vote slated for Arizona next Tuesday is expected to provide Democrats and renegade Republicans with the last vote needed to force through a discharge petition aimed at releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files — which will put House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) in an untenable position with the Donald Trump administration.

Johnson tried to avoid the inevitable by sending the House on their summer vacation early, which had the net effect of giving supporters of exposing the convicted pedophile’s investigation documentation a chance to round up the last vote they needed.

“It’s a controversy that Johnson has been working desperately to snuff out in recent months on behalf of President Donald Trump, who has called the effort a ‘Democrat hoax.’ Now he will have to decide whether to pull rank and settle a fight that has divided his conference or let the matter play out on the House floor,” the report notes, adding that “It would force a floor vote requiring publication of all Justice Department records related to the sex offender, with limited exceptions to protect victims.”
