The first thing that should be done in the Epstein record saga is to get the new congresswoman from Arizona..Adelita Grijalva.

If the speaker is unable to swear her in, then a Supreme Court justice can do it. Get this done, have this part of shut down negotiations if possible. Once congress has the 218… the the files can be released.
