if trump wants to release the files, he does not need house republicans to vote for him to do so. he can just release them.
Trump: "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide."

CONGRESS HAS NOT GIVEN YOU AUTHORITY TO STRIKE THESE PEOPLE.
A potential prelude to military action against Venezuela—even though the FTO designation as such confers no authority to use force.

The Democrats, writes our columnist Jamelle Bouie, “need to fortify the American political system against future attempts to play dictator and lay out a project of genuine democratic renewal. None of this is possible without a willingness to use power rather than just hold it.”

Thursday’s virtual town hall was the first of many to discuss the proposed 3.2-mile trail that would run through Old Irving Park, Irving Park, Portage Park, Kilbourn Park, Belmont Cragin and Hermosa.

Made a uniform shift from 2024 Prez of D+8, and then shifted Hispanics and Asians D+20 from 2024 Prez.
Result statewide is D+3

NRCC favored pollster Cygnal showing the generic ballot as D+6 50/44, and for the first time in two years, voters whose top priority is inflation and the economy now prefer a generic Democrat for Congress (D+13) over a Republican.

This is why the state capacity literature matters, why legislative term limits are bad, why Congress and its staff deserve substantial pay raises, etc
You obviously can't just do what they say, but an unfortunate reality about politics (per the "legislative subsidy" literature) is that corporate lobbyists tend to be much better informed about the substantive details of policy issues than overworked/underpaid congressional staff or NGOs types.

As not your lawyer, I would say relying on this "advise" is a perilous decision.
Awful: Trump's boat bombings are now being justified by a new legal memo that relies on WH's own determinations as evidence. Memo also says people can't be prosecuted for the killings. But that reveals WH knows there's legal vulnerability here, Ds tell me.
