The complete and total bullshit about this is that it should have been the FIRST question asked of Johnson. It is a disgrace that he was not asked about this before he ended his press conference. Unbelievable that he continues to get away with this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

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

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.

Textbook Putin Hit

The subhed here is a master class in corporate journalism rewarding malfeasance via semantics

Bondi didn't valiantly fend something off, she refused to answer legitimate questions before Congress because the answers would be horrifying and politically inconvenient

And that's a profile in cowardice

Laura Rodriguez, on Twitter: A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them. Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

I fear if things don’t change right now, this image is going to come back to haunt us

Durbin: "What has taken place since January 20, 2025, would make even President Nixon recoil. This is your legacy, AG Bondi."

Hatred and division must never win. I will always stand up against those who seek to divide our communities.

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

A screenshot of an X.com post by @AdelitaForAZ , Adelita Grijalva, stating, "The people of Southern Arizona deserve representation and I'm ready to get to work. Swear me in NOW! @SpeakerJohnson !" followed by a reply from @GavinNewsom , Gavin Newsom, saying, "It's not even November and the GOP are already rigging elections." Below, a news headline from McClatchy by Nikki McCann Ramirez dated September 30, 2025, reads, "DEM SAYS MIKE JOHNSON IS DELAYING HER SWEARING-IN TO PREVENT EPSTEIN VOTE," with a photo of Adelita Grijalva smiling at an event in Tucson, Arizona, on Tuesday, September 23, 2025.

This is the Epstein files shutdown.

Today in Politics, Bulletin 224. A very heated and contentious senate hearing today with AG Bondi over Epstein, Homan, and many other issues. That and everything else that happened today. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

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

I guess because there's no real difference between the Tories, Reform and the former National Front

Amazing nuggets in the PPE Medpro High Court ruling

The Republican Shutdown Argument is a Giant Lie No, Democrats aren’t trying to fund health care for “illegal aliens.”

The shutdown is here. It's built on a giant lie.

@governor.ca.gov nails it

Can all Governors start saying it how it is please

This has to stop now or it won't end well

🗣️THIS is the message!!

Brava, Congresswoman @aoc.bsky.social!!

Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

My grandson is autistic. At 12, he's asking for more difficult maths in class, learning German and Mandarin and playing in the school chess club, as well as football. He is also delightful. I am VERY proud of him.

The precise numbers are in flux, but it’s pretty clear that more than half, & potentially up to 70% of diagnosed #autistic people don’t have any accompanying intellectual disability. The way we’re talked about in media & by government officials is not representative of the actual autistic community.
