Mike Johnson still doesn’t know about Trump’s $230m DOJ ‘compensation’ deal

House Speaker Mike Johnson revealed that he still doesn’t know the details of Donald Trump’s potential ‘compensation’ deal with the Justice Department.

The president is allegedly demanding $230 million from the DOJ to cover legal costs during federal investigations against him.

Johnson told reporters that he didn’t know the details of the claim during a news conference Wednesday (22 October).

On Thursday, a reporter asked the speaker for his comment, “now that you’ve had some time to get the details.”

“That’s still on my to-do list,” Johnson replied.
