The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.
Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.
So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

Looking like Trump has recently experienced a stroke.
I'm sure his doctor and minister of propaganda are pushing the "he's in perfect health" lie.

Squeaker Johnson intends to pull a fast one by bringing up a vote to have the Oversight Committee continue its Epstein investigation.
His direct number is 202-225-2777. It would be a shame if people filled his voicemail with this song tonight.

In order to avoid a vote on releasing the Epstein files Republicans went on break 2 weeks early hoping the story would go away. They’re back in DC now.
You know what they’re going to find out?
It didn’t go away.
It ain’t gonna go away!

Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not.
He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.

Let's not pretend Trump actually wants to help Los Angeles. Trump is deploying the military on American soil to stoke MORE conflict and MORE violence. Every Republican that remains silent is enabling him to trample over the constitutional rights of the American people.

BREAKING: ICE deported a Burmese man who doesn’t speak English to South Sudan—a country he’s not from and on the brink of civil war. He refused to sign English-only papers.
They deported him anyway—with 11 others. No hearings. No translators. Court order ignored. This is state-sponsored kidnapping.

The very definition of evil is incarcerating for life in one of the worst hellholes on Earth men who did everything right.
But it’s beyond evil—beyond demonic—to then not try to do anything to save the men you consigned to Hell, *and* to in fact libel and slander them daily when they cannot reply.
