Was just being snarky based upon their recent Senate blunder. But, I do expect some sort of skullduggery from the Republican’ts. They would sooner die than release the files.
Okay so they'll get the vote to release the files. Eventually. Meaning there's many a slip between cup and lip. Then they'll vote in the house and the senate and? They could, judging why the way donnie little dick is running this show be a year or two or 3! Then of course the SCOTUS will be brought into it and then the files while be so redacted to protect "the innocent" that it won't actually name names. What we need is the women involved to tell their side of the story and name the names. With protection from those rich bastards in power!
When the vote gets blocked the Survivors, who have already lawyered up will name names. Why? Because it’s the only avenue left for them is not to have closure—sexually abused children never get closure—child sex abuse is in itself a life sentence—but to help some modest amount of themselves heal by holding the abusers accountable when no one else has ever bothered. Dollars do not aid the damage done to sexually abused children. Collectively they have the support of one another and the strength to stand against their rich and elite abusers. And they should. The fact that the current President who is a convicted sex abuser certainly opens the door for them to stand strong. If they do name names, the entire political and elite structure will fall apart. And it should. These women have more power over politicians than both Party’s combined. Let’s hope they open this Pandora’s Box for themselves and for America and for every sex trafficked child globally.
No, I do not think they will be released. First off, I read yesterday that Nancy Mace had reconsidered and would not be signing the discharge petition after meeting with the felon in the WH. Even if they are able to secure 218, there is no way those files will be released; Johnson and his boss have something up their sleeves and we should not get our hopes up.
🤔Yes, many a slip between cup and lip. Mike Johnson certainly has control: notice there has to be a period of “legislative days” before certain other steps thereafter in a discharge petition process can take place. Guess who controls “legislative days”?
I really appreciate this breakdown. Politics are so complicated in terms of just basic civics on what next steps happen in the game. So thank you for this ability to look at the game board and understand where things can go and how they got there.
Donald Trump's own words reveal exactly the degree of his lack of character. He said them in 2016, in October, and the next month was elected president for the first time. I'll not repeat those words, they are too insulting, typical Trump. The next month he was elected president. Now he's president again! Some people never learn, do they? There is a treasure trove of photographs showing Trump cavorting with Jeffrey Epstein with ample evidence of their interest in women, ages uncertain. We know one was an employee at Mar-A-Lago by Trump's own admission, who was underage and left to work for Epstein. Precisely how decadent has America become that people actually now vote to allow the worst of the worst become the government? The answer is disturbing and does not bode well for our future. Should we continue to hope for the tide to turn in favor of dignity and humanity? I think so, but it's not an easy challenge. Thank you.
I think they'll be leaked, eventually. And I think that's the only way we'll ever see them in any meaningful, believable way. Pedophiles come in many flavors and political persuasions. Rich, powerful men protect other rich, powerful men. It'll be one or many brave women who get this material out. And it should not have to be the survivors. They shouldn't have to do any more.
No, we CLEARLY do not have it takes to do that. "We" meaning the democrat senators.
It's too bad they are so weak. Is that all they care to give to their constituents?
That's what Republicans do. They don't care for their voters I see that in those 8 Dems who voted with Republicans. If you don't care for me, why should I fucking vote for YOU?
I chose to believe it was strategic .. NOW the GOP will HAVE to take all the blame for not extending the ACA tax credits past Jan .. that's going to hit a lot of red states hard for the whole year before the 2026 midterms ..

They will probably never be released but by forcing a vote we will see who all of the Guardians of Pedophiles are.
The democrat legislators, the people, and the survivors will go to battle. The survivors need closure, so they will come out again for momentum.
Democrats might find a way to fook this up too.
Details?

I hope so!!

thankfully they all signed and it can go to vote .. hopefully this admin didn't destroy too many records while the govt was shut down ..
the GOP senate won't allow it to go to vote, and donOld won't sign it either ..

I believe it when I see it

I chose the first option. Still an optimist at heart. Or a dreamer.
I dunno, will Democrats find a new way to fook this up too?
I think they’ll get away with it like they always do
I think Little Mikey Shitweasel will simply adjourn the House again before the “7 legislative days” have passed.
