MAGA MIKE doesn't want to open the House back up. That means he has to swear in the Arizona representative elect & they have to vote to release the Epstein files.
In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

Trump is demanding that the DOJ transfer $230 million in taxpayer dollars into his own personal bank account.
At first, you might think, ‘Can he do that?'
Then you remember the SCOTUS opinions under Roberts, which made federal agencies mere extensions of the president’s will.

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.
Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.
