RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?

JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back

R: Why not now?

J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

You can joke about Pam Bondiโ€™s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but Iโ€™m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. โ€” This should shake everyone to their core.

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Greta Thunberg has more courage & moral clarity than any world leader I have ever seen.

Bar none.

Period.

That tiny 22 year old is often accused of being annoying, but what she is, is unyielding to moral ambiguity. If itโ€™s wrong, she says so until someone listens.

She deserves the Nobel Prize

Speaker Johnson continues to stall the swearing in of Rep.-elect Grijalva so as to avoid having to deal with the Epstein discharge petition. Why shouldnโ€™t Dems make support for reopening the government contingent on adding to the funding measure a provision mandating release of the Epstein files?

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson:

"Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

Last year they claimed โ€œillegalsโ€ were voting, without any evidence.

They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws.

Now they claim โ€œillegalsโ€ are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence.

So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans.

Enough.

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.

Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families โ€” and weโ€™re making that crystal clear by giving you the data.

Weโ€™ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district.
