Speaker Mike Johnson delivered one final message before the House votes to release the Epstein files — and he made it clear which side is acting in good faith. He said he will vote for full transparency, and he expects Republicans to stand united. “And so I want to leave you with this thought.” “Everybody should think long and hard about who here is acting truthfully, honestly and in good faith.” “It is not the Democrat Party that has obfuscated and blatantly lied for the last four years about all these things.” “It is not the Democrats who shut down the government for their own selfish political purposes.” “It is not the Democrats who blocked the passage of THIS discharge a week ago because they wanted to have a political moment.” “It is Republicans who are acting in good faith, and I believe the American people are going to see that and understand it.” “I’m going to vote to move this forward. I think it could be close to a unanimous vote, because everybody here, all the Republicans, want to go on record to show they’re for maximum transparency.”

"She supported us in good faith. I don't think she will support us moving forward. I think that bridge has been burned," says Steven Guilbeault on Elizabeth May supporting the Carney government on the budget vote. "We had made an agreement with Elizabeth May from the Greens to support us in the budget by not including a specific subsidy to oil and gas . . . and then we turn around two weeks later and we put it in this agreement with Alberta," he says. "I felt that this was not a genuine gesture on our part."

NEW: Speaker Johnson slams Democrats for suddenly seizing on the Epstein files after not saying "one word" for years, vowing full transparency. SPEAKER JOHNSON: "They see a shiny object and they latch on to it. Democrats did not say one word about the Epstein files for the entire Biden presidency. They had all the files in the Biden DOJ." "And suddenly, now they somehow convince themselves that the Epstein files will be damaging to President Trump and Republicans in some way that they've imagined. And so they feign outrage."

Ryan: There was supposed to be an up-or-down vote on this war. It just passed the Senate. It was supposed to be voted on right now. And these chickenhawk motherfuckers came up with a made-up bullshit procedural reason to not have the vote, to not let every American know: Where does your representative stand?

House Speaker Mike Johnson said he will not call for a vote on extending enhanced subsidies for people buying insurance through the Affordable Care Act. That effectively guarantees the subsidies will expire at the end of the month and premiums will spike substantially for some 20 million Americans who get their coverage this way. William Brangham has more on how the subsidies work and what’s at stake if they expire.

🚨 JUST IN: Senate Leader John Thune says he will FORCE a vote on the SAVE America Act, but he can NOT guarantee it will pass because that needs 60 votes "That debate will happen. But like I said, I can guarantee the debate. I can guarantee a vote. I just can't guarantee an outcome." "There are a lot of optimistic views about what Democrats may or may not do. We all know, because we deal with them every day, that the Democrats are not all of a sudden going to decide that this is something they want to be for." "I think you have a lot of optimists out there, and I appreciate that, and a lot of passion and energy behind getting an outcome here." "But getting an outcome would require Democrat votes." "And, you know, we'll give them a chance. Like I said, they'll have that opportunity to vote one way or the other on this. But I would be very, very surprised."

We all know why Speaker Johnson was terrified of giving Arizona’s 7th District the representation it deserves: the Epstein Files. That stunning abuse of power ends today, and there will be a vote to release the files. Good.

Let’s force a vote now and put Democrats on the record: Will they vote to end the filibuster even when Republicans are in power? The Senate is so broken now — it would not be the end of the world to lose the filibuster.

The Democrats are trying to circumvent elections and go against democracy. They're trying to overturn the will of the people, which was democratically voted on, to get their way. They lost the election and they're throwing a temper tantrum like children to try to get their way. In reality, the One Big Beautiful Bill was passed and signed into law, and one of the cuts to the spending was a change to Obamacare to reduce the subsidies because they had expired. Again, we the people voted for this. But they want to hold the government hostage to spend an additional 1.5T dollars to give illegals healthcare. The people did not vote for them Democrats. You either believe in democracy or you don't; apparently, the Democrats do not.

It was really a good journey and I enjoyed every moment of it. To be there with the LOML made it easier for me to achieve more in just a short time. I know my journey in the house on this show has ended, but I still have a part of me in there, and him coming home with the prize would be the sweetest thing ever. Because, why not; we are deserving of it and baby girl needs a queen’s treatment 😊. Please go out there and Vote Kellyrae. #BBNaija #Kassia #Kellyrae

🚨 BREAKING: Senate Leader John Thune says there are ACTIVE discussions to bring the SAVE America Act to a talking filibuster and floor vote If successful, it can PASS with 50 votes + JD Vance "We're having conversations about it, but it's not a unified position among Republicans in the Senate." "We want to get to the SAVE Act. We also, as I mentioned, we've got a housing bill that we can pivot back and forth to if we get a deal to open up the government. That's harder to do once you're in the throes of a talking filibuster." "The talking filibuster issue is one on which there is not certainly a unified Republican conference, and there would have to be." "If you go down that path, you're talking about the need to table what are going to be numerous amendments and an ability to keep 50 Republicans unified pretty much on every single vote. And there's just not, there isn't support for doing that at this point." "As I've said, and we will get on it and we will have a vote on the SAVE Act. The context of that, the process in which we consider it, is still an open question." IT MUST BECOME LAW! We the people demand secure elections 🇺🇸🇺🇸

🚨 JUST IN - IT'S OFFICIAL: Speaker Johnson REFUSES to allow a vote on extending the broken Obamacare subsidies to Big Insurance in the House. You got NOTHING, Democrats 🤣 "I have not [committed]. A LOT of reasons why...the unaffordable care act has failed the American people, did exactly the opposite of what they all promised as it would do." "The Democrats broke the American health care system. The reason your premiums are skyrocketing is because they have terrible policies. And one of them is subsidizing insurance companies." "If there was going to be an extension of that, would need massive reforms. You need some income caps on that. You should not be subsidizing health care for wealthy people!" "And also, you need all sorts of reforms on it. You need high protections on those things and other innovations. So the Republican Party has known this is going to expire at the end of the year, as everyone in Congress has." "We were always preparing to work through that in a deliberative fashion through October, November, December. But ironically, the Democrats, because they're shenanigans, took a lot of the time off the clock on that for us to do it." 💯💯
