(CAPITOL CITY NOW) – Republicans’ refusal to take on the Jeffrey Epstein files gives Gov. JB Pritzker another opportunity to criticize President Donald Trump.

He said the issue is indeed one which resonates.

“I think people are quite curious and suspicious, frankly,” the governor said in Chicago Tuesday, “about why it is that the President now doesn’t want to do what he promised he would do and what seems like an obvious thing that he ought to do, which is just reveal what the truth is about Jeffrey Epstein.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) sent his members home a day early.
