Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Not answering the question if the FBI has pictures of Trump with barely clothed underage girls is beyond telling.
The whole testimony was embarrassing & there should be consequences for Bondi’s conduct & lack of corporation. The non-answer to the picture question should go into the record as a “yes“

Our 2007 class action lawsuit found the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office engaged in widespread racially discriminatory policing practices and immigration enforcement in Arizona.

Now, a new report revealed the department has deceived the public by inflating their costs of complying with the ruling.

Trump's federal agents are terrorizing communities across America, but leaders like Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson are fighting back.

Mayor of Chicago Brandon Johns speaking with text: We will not tolerate ICE agents violating our residents' constitutional rights nor will we allow the federal government to disregard our local authority. ICE agents are detaining elected officials, tear-gassing protestors, children, and Chicago police officers, and abusing Chicago residents.
We will not stand for that in our city."
MAYOR BRANDON JOHNSON

They openly committed murder.
Impeach them both....

Federal officers are firing so much tear gas at protesters outside an ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, that some nearby community members who aren’t even protesting are struggling to breathe when they leave their homes to run errands.

ICE is hounding Chicago area locals with excessive chemical munitions

Agents are firing tear gas and pepper balls on lawful protesters, lawsuits say, sickening even uninvolved residents.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Then Creepy Mike Johnson tried to crash a press conference and got exposed for the Epstein cover-up.
