Furthermore, observations of Trump’s physical appearance, such as hand bruises and a “droopy face,” have fueled further speculation about his health, despite the White House attributing some symptoms to other medical conditions.

While the official explanation for the House’s recess is that Republicans have completed their work, a different motive may be at play. Democratic Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva’s victory in Arizona brings the House to 214 Democrats, and she intends to sign a discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
