That awkward moment when the script stays exactly the same, but the plot line and the motivation flips 180 degrees:

"in which Mike Johnson claims that Donald Trump was an FBI informant to take down Epstein"

#House Speaker #MikeJohnson (R-Louisiana) on Sunday backed off his [ludicrous] claim that Trump was an #FBI #informant in the case of sex offender #rapist #JeffreyEpstein.

…Last week, Johnson told reporters on Capitol Hill that Trump cares deeply about the crimes Epstein committed & said that Trump “was an FBI informant to try to take this stuff down.”
