The House speaker doesn’t want Republicans to be around when the deadline comes.
House Speaker Mike Johnson is conveniently sending Congress home the day before the Justice Department is supposed to release the Epstein files in full. The announcement came Wednesday night.
This looks like yet another instance of Johnson doing every little thing he can either to delay the release of the files or to make it so that his fellow GOPers don’t have to be in town to answer to their complicity in this monthslong campaign to avoid their release—as he did by egregiously delaying the swearing-in of Democratic Representative Adelita Grijalva for weeks.
“Like I said: view all political developments for the rest of the week in light of the fact that the Epstein Files are supposed to be released on Friday,” Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote Wednesday evening on X. “House Republicans just suddenly canceled Congressional session Friday and are sending everyone home Thursday evening.”
This guy is a one-trick pony.
Have to oath in a Democrat who will trigger a vote his master doesn’t like? Send everyone home!
Files that incriminates his master are being released? Send everyone home!
This tactic is getting old already.
I see it as them showing their hand. They know they cant take the heat, so they run. Pussies.
Hey now, pussies can take a pounding and keep on coming.
Yeah, unlike ballsacks. If any sex-related human part has to be a metaphor for weakness, it should be that one.
They also have depth and warmth that most if not all republicans lack.
🧑🍳 🤌
When does the coming happen? Asking for a friend. A highly unsatisfied friend.
Edit: i just noticed how this joke might be taken. Before the unsolicited offers and pictures come rolling in, thought I should make clear that A) this was entirely a joke, a complete fabrication, and B) that I’m a dude. Please don’t send me pictures of your unimpressive dicks. I’ll post them online.
What about impressive ones? /s

Fair, but they dont knwo that, lol. They’re obsessed with shining light on their balls and brain worms, or something.
Republicans complain that government is ineffective and corrupt, then they get elected and prove it.
Members of your own party trying to force a vote to extend Obamacare subsidies? Send 'em home!
The files probably incriminate him too.
He admitted he needs his teenage son to monitor his porn habits. Imagine what he doesn’t admit to.
You forgot about his other trick: I haven’t heard about that or I haven’t had time to read that.
That’s not his trick. That’s a GOP trick.
