The speaker of the house and Zionist-first Mike Johnson will probably kill this. It would be nice to see if the democrats would vote this through if they gain the house in 2026. My guess, they would not. Epstein had “friends” on both sides of the aisle.

    Sadly, Johnson can and will squash this, but I applaud Ro Khanna for introducing it.

    If only this were somehow privileged.

    A privileged resolution is a type of resolution that deals with the internal operations, rules, or constitutional duties of the House. Under House Rule IX, these can be brought directly to the floor by any member, without needing the Speaker’s approval.

    Types of Privileged Resolutions in the U.S. House:

    • Impeachment of a president or other civil officer
    • Censure or reprimand of a House member
    • Contempt of Congress (for defying subpoenas, etc.)
    • Expulsion of a member (requires two-thirds vote)
    • Challenges to the seating or election of a member
    • Changes to the House rules
    • Questions of privilege (issues affecting the dignity or functioning of the House)
    • Resolutions of inquiry (demanding information from the executive branch)

      Maybe they can do a resolution of inquiry as a first step, demanding the executive branch provide the document to congress.

      I mean, considering the point is to out those who who deny it. If Johnson squashes it, mission accomplished, no? Easy target on your back for not doing something that would be morally right. I wouldn’t want to be the guy that is known to be responsible for that when there are lots of crazy and pissed people out there.
