Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.
Why the delay from Mike Johnson?
Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The lack of total outrage at the indictment of Congresswoman McIvey is truly frightening.
Hakeem Jeffries ought to be causing high holy hell over this.
She is indicted because she is Black.
Half of the GOP caucus engaged in sedition and Garland felt arresting a member of congress went too far.

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts.
