NEW: Turning Point USA announced they're doing their own concert for Super Bowl Halftime, using "fully Christian, American" performers. Now seems like a good time to remind them that Bad Bunny is both fully Christian and fully American.

Photo of an X post by FactPost (@factpostnews ) stating: "Republicans are postponing the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newest Democrat elected to Congress. Her day one promise was to be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files." The post includes two images: on the left, a smiling Adelita Grijalva wearing a denim jacket and necklace, and on the right, a person with blonde hair being sworn in, with another individual adjusting their tie. The post features a profile picture and verification badge.
Itβs the Epstein files shutdown.
