BIG NEWS: Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva will finally be sworn in as a member of Congress tomorrow. She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.

He's run out of excuses.

I've watched many, oh so many, of his attempted rationalizations for giving our House of Representatives a weeks-long paid vacation (what's it now? 7 or 8 or maybe 9 weeks? How many of Americans have 7 or 8 or 9 weeks of vacation?) in order to prevent the Epstein files from being revealed


So, what will be his next attempt to suppress the Epstein files, once the Houe is back in session?

There will be a brief distraction when Lewzer pardons Ghislaine Maxwell and has her flown to the UK on Bribe Force One, never to be seen again.

Given all the laws that Pres Trump apparently has flouted, that action would not surprise me at all.

Would it disgust me because it flouts the law of the Country? Absolutely.

But would it surprise me that Pres Trump may do this? Absolutely not.
