"In AM this morning we did our monthly LEADER LOOK -- on @SpeakerJohnson and @RepJeffries I want to focus on Johnson for a second and the Epstein situation. Johnson was under tremendous pressure on Jeffrey Epstein from members of the Rules Committee. Rules members were tired of taking votes on Dem amendments on Epstein. Johnson and the committee drew up a resolution that they offered in rules. The resolution was non-binding. But it was meant to give committee members cover. But then the resolution didn't come up for a vote on the House floor. So now there are at least two more turns of the" @JakeSherman on X 2025-07-18 13:36:30 UTC 446.2K followers, 33.3K engagements

"NEWS: Republican members of the House Rules Committee met with @SpeakerJohnson this morning. They are frustrated that Democrats on the Rules Committee are offering amendments on the JEFFREY EPSTEIN situation. Republicans are expected to vote these amendments down to ensure they don't come to the floor. But this opens these Republicans up to sharp criticism that they are protecting Epstein.

"🚨🚨BREAKING -- A new CBO analysis shows that several policies Republicans are considering for slashing Medicaid spending would lead to millions of people losing health insurance coverage.

"2) The GOP-controlled House is an arm of the White House. We dont want to harp on this for too long because its so evident if youre a Congress watcher. Under Johnson and Trump the House simply isnt an independent branch of government anymore. Whether its on Russia sanctions the Jeffrey Epstein files or voting for a $X trillion debt-limit increase House Republicans do whatever Trump tells them to do. Some of that is inevitable when the House is controlled by the presidents party. But it wasnt long ago that a House Democratic majority turned their back on Barack Obamas trade agenda or then-Sen." @JakeSherman on X 2025-07-23 14:28:01 UTC 446.2K followers, 3906 engagements

Not only is this political embarrassment for Trump but its also a practical issue for Republicans.

"☀@punchbowlnews AM: What X months revealed about the House 1) House Republicans did a big thing. Can they do more Lets give Johnson and the House Republicans credit where its due: They did get their massive reconciliation bill through the House and Senate by July X. We all doubted that Johnson could do it and by we thats reporters members of Johnsons own leadership team and the Trump White House. Coming off that win Johnson floated another two reconciliation bills to cut additional spending one in the fall and one in the spring of 2026 which as you may already know is an election year.
