This seems to be the most popular version of what's going to happen regarding the release of the files after the House votes.

MAGA Republicans will do whatever it takes to protect their twisted orange overlord.

Americans deserve to know who’s in the TRUMP-EPSTEIN files, but will we find out?

Noem spent over $200 million in taxpayer dollars to film videos over 2xs last year’s budget.
The money was funneled using a “no bid” contract to an unknown LLC created days earlier and is tied to the husband of her deputy at DHS.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

We always get these huge Trump announcements with much media hype and fanfare with lots of big promises and assurances, effusively praising himself looking for awards & prizes, while experts say the details are scarce or nonexistent. Then a short time later we get the reality.

If our Military isn’t being paid during a shut down, Congress shouldn’t be paid. They have no motivation to negotiate. I think for every day of a shut down Congress should be fined for dereliction of duty.
