As the longest government shutdown in U.S. history nears an end, a discharge petition to force the release of Jeffrey Epstein files is poised to reach the required signatures, spearheaded by Republican Representative Thomas Massie. The petition’s success hinges on the swearing-in of Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva, who has pledged to sign it. While House Speaker Mike Johnson initially delayed Grijalva’s swearing-in, citing the shutdown, he now intends to proceed. Experts suggest the petition poses a challenge to Johnson and the Republican Party, potentially weakening his control and forcing a vote on the Epstein files.
U.S. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva is anticipated to be sworn in this week. Her swearing-in was delayed by House Speaker Mike Johnson despite Grijalva winning a special election in September. Grijalva and the Arizona attorney general filed a lawsuit against the U.S. House of Representatives. Johnson claimed the delay was due to the House not being in full session, but Grijalva and her supporters suggested it was related to her pledge to sign a discharge petition on the Epstein files.
Speaker Mike Johnson intends to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva before a vote to reopen the government, breaking a long delay. Democrats have pushed for her swearing-in since her August election, even filing a lawsuit. As the Senate prepares to pass an amended continuing resolution, Johnson is calling House members back to Washington. The Senate’s version extends the resolution to January 31, 2026, and includes a minibus of appropriations, excluding extensions of Obamacare subsidies.
Elected six weeks ago, the Arizona representative-elect has been denied being sworn in by Speaker Mike Johnson, setting a modern-day record for the longest wait. During this time, the House has been in recess while crucial economic and social issues remain unaddressed, potentially affecting millions of Americans. The hold-up appears to stem from the representative-elect’s potential decisive vote on releasing the Epstein files. This unprecedented move, denying over 800,000 Arizonans representation, has led to a lawsuit and calls for the House to return to session immediately to fulfill its duties.
Representative Nancy Pelosi has announced her retirement from Congress at the end of her current term, after nearly four decades of service. Her departure, slated for 2027, marks the end of an era for the former House Speaker. This decision comes amidst growing calls for a generational shift in Congress, and it opens the door for younger Democrats, such as Sara Jacobs and Saikat Chakrabarti, to compete for her seat. Her exit also signifies a passing of the leadership mantle to a new generation of politicians, including Representative Hakeem Jeffries.
The current government shutdown has become the longest on record, surpassing the previous record, with no immediate resolution in sight. Speaker Mike Johnson’s strategy of sending the House into recess has placed the burden of action on the Senate, which has been unable to garner the necessary votes for the “clean” continuing resolution. The Speaker’s actions suggest a deliberate strategy to prolong the shutdown, potentially motivated by political considerations such as preventing the release of the Epstein files and consolidating power within the executive branch. This situation has positioned the country for a shift in government power, potentially diminishing the role of the people.
FOIA Files has released a new installment based on 18,000 emails obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s personal Yahoo account. This investigation revealed details about a money laundering investigation that ran concurrently with the federal sex crimes probe, a matter largely kept secret for nearly twenty years. Key findings of the investigation will be discussed on the podcast “Disclosure.” Notably, the Department of Justice and FBI previously declined to release any portion of the extensive “Epstein files” due to concerns of inappropriateness.
JPMorgan Alerted U.S. to Epstein Transfers Involving Wall St. Figures (Gift Article)
So, let’s dive into this tangled web, shall we? The basic premise is this: JPMorgan Chase, one of the world’s largest financial institutions, alerted the U.S. government to suspicious financial transfers involving Jeffrey Epstein. It’s a headline that grabs your attention, because Epstein, of course, was the subject of heinous crimes. It immediately raises questions of complicity, cover-ups, and the potential involvement of powerful individuals. But here’s the kicker: JPMorgan, despite these alerts, continued to do business with Epstein for years. Now, that’s not exactly the actions of a concerned party, is it?… Continue reading
A bipartisan group, including Republican Thomas Massie, Democrat Ro Khanna, and Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, gathered to raise awareness about the Jeffrey Epstein case and demand the release of relevant files.
