This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours.

Opening up the Epstein Files for public debate is the best and most appropriate way the Trump administration and the Justice Department can pay tribute to their debater-in-chief, Charlie Kirk.

The tactics Trump is urging upon ICE are in direct contradiction of US laws and the constitution. The courts allowing this to continue have betrayed their duty to US citizens and all lawful residents!
Culturally, we are being trained to accept people with no identification, hiding behind anonymity, who are using violent approaches to take people’s freedom/autonomy from them.
This is not something that we should as a society, accept. It is everything that America fought against in multiple wars.

Next week should be called Pythagorean Day or something cuz that date can be written as 16/9/25 (or 9/16/25) and the square roots of each of those numbers form a pythagorean triple
3²+4²=5²
I showed this to my math teacher and she made mention of the golden triangle
