GOP Rep. Thomas Massie is publicly pleading with his Republican colleagues to break rank with House GOP leaders and join his crusade to force a vote on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Massie said he needed just two more members on his side of the aisle to sign onto the discharge petition.

The Kentucky Republican is defending his approach as his leadership tries to undermine the effort.

READ THE COMPLAINT: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
INTRODUCTION
On May 27, 2025, Defendant, the Secretary of the United States Department of
Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (the "Secretary" or "Mr. Kennedy"), announced in a post on social media site X that he "couldn't be more pleased that, as of today, the Covid vaccine
for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended
immunization schedules."! Unless the Secretary's baseless and uninformed policy decision is vacated, pregnant women, their unborn children, and, in fact, all children remain at grave and immediate risk of contracting a preventable disease. This decision immediately exposes these
vulnerable populations to a serious illness with potentially irreversible long-term effects and, in
some cases, death. This is not a hypothetical concern, but a pressing public health emergency that
demands immediate legal action and correction.

What a coincidence that just recently Elon Musk confidently announced that Trump Is in the Epstein files. And now DOJ and FBI say that there “is no list” and no "further disclosure" of Epstein-related material "would be appropriate or warranted."

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.

Little known fact but men were sometimes burnt too, although for the most part it was women on the receiving end, as they were more likely to be accused as a consequence of rampant misogyny and superstition.
In 1591 John Cunningham was accused of witchcraft, after extreme torture he confessed to it, according to the English ambassador Robert Bowes - during his execution he denied his confession, saying he told those tales by fear of torture and to save his life.
