15. Mikey can't

Nov 9

He took them out of town because he couldn't seat Adelita Grijalva. And at the time, she would have become the last vote needed to pass a discharge petition to force DoJ to publish the FBI's Epstein files.

But that was a month ago. Things have really gone into the shitter for both Johnson and Trump. It seems that some people at the FBI have shown pictures of Trump molesting obviously underage girls, and now, reportedly, the discharge vote won't even be close. Some people are reporting there may be 100 GOP votes for the discharge.

So seriously, the only way Johnson can hold this off for Trump is to NEVER bring the House back. Obviously, something has to give. And at this stage, Dems would be wise to shut off talks with the Senate until the House comes back to work. We need to apply maximum pain to Johnson now. In other words, linking the Republican shutdown with the Trump-Epstein sex/extortion ring will give us the strongest position with the pub and the media.
