Published On: Thu Nov 13 2025
Description: Rep. Adelita Grijalva, now official a member of Congress after waiting 50 days for Republican House Speaker to agree to swear her into office, talks with Jen Psaki about how Johnson's obstruction "has highlighted the corruption," and the need for a law that requires new members be seated promptly without relying on the good faith of the House speaker.Jess Michaels, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, talks with Jen Psaki and Rep. Adelita Grijalva about what it means that there are now enough signatures to force a vote in the House on the release of the DOJ's Epstein investigation files, not only for what they may reveal about Donald Trump, but for their potential to help bring justice to the many women who were abused by Epstein and his friends.What a day to be the White House press secretary! Jen Psaki offers some assistance to beleaguered Trump White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt who spent today's press briefing side-stepping and non-answering questions raised by new documents released by the Jeffrey Epstein estate about the relationship between Epstein and Donald Trump.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
