MAJOR NEWS: Federal judges, including a Trump appointee, just BLOCKED Texas Republicans from using their new gerrymandered congressional map in 2026, ruling it was likely an illegal racial gerrymander. TX must revert to its 2021 map as Trump’s redistricting power grab collapses.

Mike Johnson refused to swear in Adelita Grijalva for months because she was the 218th signature to force a vote on the Epstein files, but sure, Republicans always wanted to release them as they now claim today for the first time.

If Trump genuinely wanted the Epstein files released, he could order the Justice Department to release them — rather than go through the circus of a discharge petition.
Trump has already tried time and time again to usurp the power of Congress.
What's stopping him now?

Q: I'm confused because the bill specifically says 'the AG may withhold or redact portions related to child sex abuse materials.' The survivors are comfortable with that. These things are actually in this bill.

If Donald Trump wants to release the Epstein files, he could just release them, instead of green-lighting the House resolution.
And it's not as if he cares whether he has statutory authority to do a lot of what he's been doing.
But he needs a law for this?

The House of Representatives will vote on releasing the Epstein files today.
It will pass, then it needs to get through the Senate and Trump.
Trump claims he has nothing to hide, yet he could’ve directed the DOJ to release the files at any time.
He doesn’t need a vote from Congress.

Trump now says Republicans can vote to release the Epstein files.
He never urged Republicans to support the discharge petition. He never demanded Mike Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva. But now, after reports indicate 100+ GOPers are planning to support their release, he caves.
