AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Why can’t anyone authorized to administer oaths swear her in?

Wouldn’t a Federal judge qualify for example?

John Roberts maybe?

Of course it is

Time for women to push men aside

To bring sanity back to politics

To look after the people in their countries

Probably a lot less war

Women are great negotiators

Women will look after families and not play lip service to the problems

Time for change

Now

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.
