Make no mistake: When the history of this Trump government shutdown is written, it will assign blame where it belongs.
To the convicted felon and twice impeached Oval Office occupant who has six bankruptcies in his financial resume, including a casino.
And the House Speaker Christian Hypocrite who could not open a law school for numerous unflattering reasons who has kept House members at home for now three weeks rather than negotiate with Democrats on the fiscal showdown and hold a vote with should have been sworn in by now Representative-Elect Adelita Grijalva on the release of the Epstein files.
As Senator Ruben Gallego put so well in a recent social media post:
“Trump and GOP protecting pedos and cutting healthcare for 24 million Americans. That is a hell of a plan for the 2025 and 2026 elections.”
A rightfully incensed Representative-Elect Grijalva has been making her case to be immediately sworn in on cable news and the below press statement:
“Canceling votes to remain in recess while the government is shut down is an abject failure of leadership. Republicans should be ashamed. I demand to be sworn in immediately. There is no reason to delay my swearing-in and it begs the question of their motivation in doing so. My district needs a voice in Congress, my office needs to be able to serve our constituents, and the American people need their government open. Republicans must return from their vacation, stop hiding from the public, and do their job.”
Grijalva is right.
Republicans should be ashamed.
But their power hungry leadership has none so no one should be surprised.
Representative Yassamin Ansari called Johnson keeping House Republicans home for another week “Absurd and outrageous” during the Trump Shutdown that is “Exacerbating the health care crisis” of Trump, Johnson, and Congressional Republicans making.
Ansari called on Republicans to come back and negotiate an end to the their health care crisis and prevent “50,000 people from dying and protect 17 million people from getting kicked off Medicaid.”
She also called on them to stop the Trump “cover up” of the Epstein files and swear in Grijalva so she could be the 218th signature on the discharge petition to release the Epstein material.
She concluded by pointing out that Trump and Republicans are:
“Complicit in killing Americans, jacking up health care prices, and protecting the most rich and powerful men who were part of perpetrating the most heinous, disgusting, crimes that are in the Epstein files that this Administration is covering up.”
Democrats like Ansari, Grijalva, Stanton, Kelly, and Gallego are ready, willing, and able to work with Republicans to protect Americans health care and reopen the government.
Check out this joint video by Senators Kelly and Gallego where they call for Republicans to work with them to avoid the health care disaster that is coming if they do not act.
Republicans need to show up and do their jobs by serving the people instead of bending the knee to the American Duce Wannabe who bankrupted a casino and a Christian Hypocrite Speaker who has no problem of breaking the commandment on bearing false witness and thou shall not murder.

It’s worse than you think. A million times worse.
They’re not protecting PedoPOTUS and his pals, they’re protecting money.
Epstein’s pedos are on the right, the left, and everywhere in between, we already know many of the names, and a lot of the names we know are bankers, exec’s, and the very wealthy.
Lots of the names belong to Republican and Democrat donors.
Republicans, and until recently, most Dems, didn’t want the Epstein files released, but not to protect girls.
To protect the money.
Republicans consider women property, so they don’t care, but Corporate Dems are not pushing hard enough and that’s damning.
They do not care about women. They do not care about rape.
They only care about money.
MAGA/Trump are just symptoms of how absolutely fucking sick this country has become.
“Republicans consider women property, so they don’t care, but Corporate Dems are not pushing hard enough and that’s damning.”
I’ve said this before – even though Bill Clinton is probably in the Epstain (pun intended) files, he should take one for the team and vociferously demand their release. Might add a touch of spine to those Corporate Dems?
Given the leadership exhibited in standing up to Felonious Punk’s lawlessness by such GOP luminaries like Mike Johnson, John Thune, Marco Rubio, Lindsey Graham & the rest of the GOP House & Senate, they should replace their GOP elephant logo with a can of worms.
Make a MAGA meltdown by asking them if their party logo is an African or Indian elephant.
And to be fair and balanced, the Dems logo is 100% American jackass.
Elephants are entirely wrong for their logo. Elephants are compassionate beings while wing nuts are not. Unless they demand sympathy for suffering the ills they willingly inflict on others that are not like them.
Elephants are awesome and are supposed to have long memories, but MAGA can’t remember what the outrage of the day was yesterday.
The one thing they can be “reminded” to remember is that Trump ran on releasing the Epstein files and well gosh and golly now where the heck did I leave those silly files?
I’ve been hearing that there are pictures of Trump with undressed young girls in the files, so I guess that answers all our questions right there.
Trump says Miami was a different place in the 90’s. FFS, he admits it.
A full release of the files will bring down pols on the right and left, some CEO’s, and some banks.
Epstein was a money guy, he needed banks to help him do that, and they know better, they are guilty, same as they were during Bernie Madoff’s crime spree.
I worked at Too Big To Fail banks for 16 years, in IT, so no where near any money, and I still needed to take anti-money laundering training every year.
Pam Bondi’s testimony today was really, really bad. She’s Trump’s new Bill Barr, helping coverup the rape of children.
Every time that sundowning asshole John Government Checks Kavanagh comments here ask him why he and his party are covering up for Epstein.
Ask every MAGA why, every time. It’s the only question that matters, because everything else going on flows from the coverup, the fed takeovers of cities, extra-judicial bombings of fishermen, the government shutdown, it’s all tied together.
Everything the MAGAts and GQP are doing right now is to distract from Trump and his friends raping children.
And filming it.
Goddamn is this country so fucked up right now.
One can only hope there’s someone with a conscience who has access to those files and surreptitiously releases them. Of course Pam “My role model is Gestapo Chief Heinrich Mueller” Bondi will make sure such a person will never get near them.
When their party’s over they will make sure those files are destroyed.
