Swear her in. Release the Epstein Files.

Ettingermentum writes: “Actually what on earth is in those files bro.”
The image from Courier Newsroom headline reads: “Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is now the longest Rep-elect in history to not be sworn in. Mike Johnson still refuses to swear in Rep-elect Grijalva over fear of releasing the Epstein files.”
The picture shows Grijalva in a red jacket beside Speaker Mike Johnson.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Trump's Project 2025 literally says to defund the Affordable Care Act/Obamacare premium subsidies. To destroy the whole program and bring us back to the chaos before the ACA/Obamacare was created.

Survivors — and family of survivors — of Epstein and Maxwell's abuse are urging Mike Johnson to swear-in Adelita Grijalva:

"Every day you stall is another day survivors are denied justice, and the American people are denied the truth. Swear in Representative Grijalva and let democracy speak."

Donald Trump is trying to normalize authoritarianism. We cannot let that happen. We cannot take the bait that normalizes things that are fundamentally wrong.

3 words in Letitia James' mortgage contract could doom the fraud case against her:

James is charged with illegally collecting rental income on a second property. But her contract permits renting, according to POLITICO's review of her contract and legal experts. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

That's "Kathryn Bigelow"

KeepItReal @keepitreal24.bsky.social · 11h

There's a new nuclear threat drama that just came out on Netflix called A House of Dynamite. Directed by Katherine Bigelow (Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty).

Probably where all this sh*t came from.

The tables will turn,” Gov. Pritzker warned, revealing that Illinois’ attorney general is now investigating ICE and DHS misconduct in Chicago. Accountability is coming — and no badge will be enough to hide behind. 👏🏽👏🏽

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

It's to force EVERYONE out of the Affordable Care Act.

Project 2025 says it needs to be defunded (removing premium subsidies) and ultimately eliminated so we go back to before it was implemented.

Russell Vought is sitting at OMB orchestrating this whole thing to get his 2025 plan implemented.

Ya so change it. Remove these middleman insurance companies and create the same model that Sweden and Denmark and other successful countries provide medical care for their citizens. You all in Congress only know how to bitch; start earning your salary and create the model.
