Phang: We know that there is a move by 99% of the Republicans locked step with Trump and countless still unidentified billionaires and politicians to keep this from moving forward. How do we know? Because Speaker Mike Johnson continues to refuse to swear in Arizona Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva, because if he did, that would be the 218th vote on a discharge petition to force the release of the Epstein files.

"With all due respect to the Speaker, that is a load of crap… [Rep.-Elect Grijalva] absolutely represents the last signature on the discharge petition forcing a vote on the Epstein Files. And so it is the only clear thing that I can think of, that is preventing the Speaker from swearing her in." Rep. Johnny Olszewski, Jr. (D-MD) responds to Speaker Mike Johnson from earlier this morning.

🚨 BREAKING: The White House just slammed the Massie–Khanna Epstein discharge petition as “a very hostile act to the administration.” Hours earlier, Speaker Mike Johnson called Trump “the most transparent president in memory, probably in the history of the country.” Here’s what’s actually happening… Rep. Thomas Massie’s discharge petition could force a House floor vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which would require the DOJ to release all unclassified Epstein-related documents. If 218 members sign, the bill bypasses leadership and goes straight to the floor. Trump and the White House do NOT want that vote - because a full release strips away their ability to control what comes out. Instead, James Comer released a dripped out 33,000 pages - 97% of which are already online - to bury the real names and scandals. Don’t be fooled: this isn’t about protecting victims. It’s about protecting Donald Trump and his powerful friends - and keeping control over what’s exposed. If Trump was truly “transparent,” he’d let the House vote and release the full files. We must demand ALL the Epstein files, NOW. The Khanna–Massie discharge petition must pass.

Newly sworn-in Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ): “We need to fight for our immigrant communities and veterans… We need to stand up for LGBTQ+ rights because that’s what the American people expect us to do. Fight for them. That is why I will sign the discharge petition RIGHT NOW to release the Epstein files.” Grijalva’s signature—the 218th and final one required—on the discharge petition will force a floor vote and trigger a series of procedural steps before the House can vote on a bill mandating the release of the Epstein files.

Speaker Mike Johnson kept the House on vacation for WEEKS to avoid swearing in Congresswoman Grijalva, all because her signature would have forced a vote to release the Epstein files. Today she was finally sworn in. Speaker Johnson must now bring the Epstein files up for a vote. The American people deserve a government they can trust.

Jeffries: Rep-Elect. Grijalva would represent the 218th signature on a petition that will force an up or down vote on the Epstein files. And Mike Johnson is doing his boss's bidding. Donald Trump, who clearly wants no part of the American people to see the Epstein files released.

🚨🇺🇸 SPEAKER JOHNSON: MASSIE'S EPSTEIN FILES PETITION COULD RELEASE "CHILD PORN" OF VICTIMS Speaker Johnson defends stopping the discharge petition to release Epstein documents, claiming it fails to protect innocent victims and could expose child sexual abuse materials while Massie challenges his position: "There are as many as potentially a thousand victims of these Epstein evils. They do not want their names and identities known. You could potentially have child porn, photos of young women. Some of these women were recruited and groomed at age 13 or 14. The discharge petition doesn't cover that." Johnson argues the petition fails to protect whistleblowers, confidential informants, and undercover agents while the Oversight Committee's bipartisan approach requests "everything the discharge petition wants and more."
