Like a 'Car' Without 'Gas': Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva Shows Mike Johnson Why Her New Office is Inoperable [View all]

Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ) posted a video tour of her new office to show House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) why she can’t get down to business for her constituents.

Critics claim Johnson has been delaying Grijalva’s swearing in since she was elected nearly a month ago to fill her late-father’s congressional seat. Grijalva believes it’s because she has vowed she will be the 218th petition signer needed to get Congress to demand the Epstein files.

“Look at what happened,” Grijalva said at the start of her video, which she posted to X on Thursday. “We got access to the office. Check out this super cool printer. I can’t print to it, though, because I don’t have a government email.”

She continued, “So, in the office, we have several desktops. But they have an administrator passcode and I don’t have that. Check out this cool stack of laptops. Guess what? I can’t unlock them.”
