BREAKING: House Republicans are canceling the final two weeks of September and plan to stop voting after September 14, leaving Washington until after the midterms.
The timing? Thomas Massie’s bipartisan push to force action on millions of unreleased Epstein files is gaining signatures.
They were elected to govern, not run from accountability.
Stay in Washington. Release the files.
🚨 BREAKING:
The U.S. officially announced the removal of Col. Nathan McCormack from his position on the Joint Chiefs of Staff over posts in which he described Israel as a "death cult" and said America acts as Israel's proxy.
The Heart & Soul of Boston are the People within the community. We asked Shifters at 741 Frequency Fest what @fchwpo has meant to them over the last decade as Boston came together to send him off to Philadelphia.
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. 🛸
Pierre Damas Bel was a physiology and neuroscience student at Wright State who had dreams of going to medical school. He was a bright student and cherished community member.
After the Supreme Court allowed Trump to rescind temporary protected status for Haitians, Pierre and dozens of Haitians in Springfield, Ohio were forced to wear ankle monitors. Those close to him say he felt humiliated, was bullied for it, and “treated like an animal.”
ICE’s cruelty is killing people.
I am devastated to hear of the tragic loss of Pierre Damas Bel. My prayers are with his loved ones and the Haitian community in their mourning.
Pierre, like many before him, came to America to reunite with his family. He graduated from high school, was a celebrated student athlete, served as a JROTC lieutenant, and had plans to attend college in the Fall.
His death, which followed the theft of his TPS and the pain of being forced to wear a GPS ankle monitor, is a heartbreaking reminder of the real human consequences of cruel and grotesque immigration policy.

The House just voted on a government funding bill to give MORE money to ICE.
We cannot give another dime to this rogue agency that continues to terrorize our communities.
Voted NO.
Today, we received notice of another death in ICE detention. We also learned that a 20-year-old Haitian immigrant, Pierre Damas Bel, took his own life in Springfield, Ohio, after the Trump Administration ended TPS for Haitians and fitted him with an ankle monitor.
They openly brag about buying the seat in Congress , but if you mention it, you’re antisemitic. Those are the rules. Moreover, it’s intolerable for any Republican to oppose sending your hard earned money overseas or to speak out against genocide.
Thomas Massie and I just introduced a discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files Transparency Act II.
The DOJ has failed to release millions of files. I’m calling on everyone in Congress to sign this petition and stand up for the survivors.
Yesterday, @RoKhanna, @RepTeresaLF, and I launched a discharge petition to collect 218 signatures to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.
Now there are rumors @SpeakerJohnson will soon recess the House until after the midterm elections… to avoid the vote?!
Beginning today, your congressman can sign a discharge petition to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.
EFTA II gives state AGs access to Epstein files required to prosecute perpetrators under state law, and makes it easier for survivors to sue to get their files.
Why aren’t our Journalists asking questions about Senator Mitch McConnell because as I recall that’s their job to get answers by investigating & this is one of the biggest stories of late. Remember nobody has seen or heard from him in 77days while he & his staff are being paid.
I just received notification of another death in ICE custody. This marks the 56th death under Trump’s second term.
We cannot ignore what is happening. Our private, for-profit detention system must be overhauled and ICE must be dismantled.
