Coin World reported that U.S. House Speaker Johnson stated in an interview released on Thursday that the Jeffrey Epstein scandal is "not a hoax." The case continues to cause turmoil within President Trump's party. Trump's supporters' fervor over the Epstein case has led to Trump's criticism, labeling it the "Epstein hoax," and urging his Republican colleagues to stop focusing on the issue, but to no avail. "This is not a hoax. Certainly not," Johnson said in a media interview. "We want complete transparency. We want everyone who is in any way related to the Epstein case to be brought to justice as soon as possible," Johnson said, "We want to bear the full weight of the law on them."
