Epstein Files!

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) has yet to swear in Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ) to her duly elected post (AP News). He put it off until finally recessing the House during the current government shutdown. He called a recess to prevent a vote on releasing the Epstein files earlier this year (CNBC). Hmm

Is it possible that of the many important people named in the Epstein files Johnson’s is included? His president Donald Trump ran on the promise to release all the names in the files. Why would he make moves to delay this? How is it legal for him to block Grijalva from taking her seat in the House? Who is this guy?

Elon Musk, Steve Bannon and Peter Thiel‘s names appear in the new Epstein estate documents. It doesn’t necessarily mean they are guilty of a crime but this keeps getting more interesting….

Let’s See Those Files already
