i think he said he's been debating for a few days whether or not to mention this

and the "threat" or "blackmail" was that this info would come out if johnson didn't swear the dem rep. by oct. 1st.

apparently she would make the 118th vote on voting to release epstein info or something to that effect-- so that it would be brought up for a vote and republicans would have to show the folks back home that they don't want it released

something like that--i didn't catch all that he said tho

on edit: i meant 218th vote. (oopsie)
