Based on what it disclosed, I believe we should all be yelling for #X to reinstate the account location feature, and institute transparency to prove it's accurate.
I have no doubt it was accurate when it was enabled a day ago, but like the #Epstein files, I doubt its accuracy when brought back.

#Trump has said that the #Epstein investigation has been re-opened, and he is going after #Democrats. He's not investigating himself.
With me?
So if you can't release files related to those being investigated, release the rest. And since Trump isn't being investigated... those files are fair game.

My take on the #Epstein situation, #Trump reversal, and the #Discharge #Petition (a thread)
The “if DOJ starts a new investigation, they don’t have to release the files” theory comes from two overlapping things:

Do some math. What happens to political funding if everyone in the #Epstein files had their contributions go to zero?
Who is hit the most?

Remember, even if the #Epstein #Files are scrubbed, the #British have full copies. There's no way they sacked an ambassador and kicked Andrew to the curb over nothing. They know.
And if they're released scrubbed, someone in the UK is going to say it's a crossed-line and leak their copy.

You all do realize #swearing in #Grijalva doesn't matter, right? The bill will pass the House. It likely won't pass the Senate, but even if it does, it will be vetoed. And there's no way there are the votes to override a veto.
The #Epstein files won't be released this way.
Someone's gotta leak.

Okay, presuming that the government re-opens and there's nothing that can be done about it, does that not mean the House must go into session? Does that then mean we get our 218th signature and a vote in seven days?

Sitting on a plane headed home, Miami to Seattle. I’m working on code, using a remote LLM as a wingman. My watch thumps me as my daughter sends a photo.
I’m living in the future I envisioned when I was ten.

Grijalva is the legally elected and certified representative.
“Swearing in” is a ceremony. She can take any oath on her own by declaration.
She should just show up and start doing her job. Democrats should support this.
Anyone who doesn’t like it can sue.

I honestly think the day I finish my todo list and have all my shit together is the day the political situation crosses the line and it all comes tumbling down.

I think the thing I regret most about the current political situation is that because of it, we will now never call this decade the "roaring 20s."

Have a judge swear her in. Just do it. Then she signs the petition.

Today was National Coming Out Day. I remain sad that I must note that I'm about as vanilla cis-het as they come, as my gay friends seem to be the coolest of people. And to remain so in light of the struggles is even more of an endorsement.
I'll just stay in my corner and dream of Anne Hathaway ;)

It is said that #Trump is going wild, and #Congress won’t stop him. Speculation is that Trump has something on almost everyone.
What if it’s the other way around? What if #Vought and #Miller and crew have something on Trump and the Congressional leaders, letting THEM run wild?
