The Smile: 7/24

Hi friend,

Happy Thursday! In a major move for transparency and justice, a House subcommittee just voted to subpoena the Justice Department for the Epstein files, with Democrats leading the charge and even some Republicans breaking with Trump to support the effort.

✍️ Add your name to stand with Democrats demanding full disclosure of the Epstein files and accountability for the powerful.

And in more good news: school districts are suing to stop Trump’s $6 billion education funding freeze, JD Vance was greeted by cat-loving protesters, and scientists may have just found a way to stop mosquitoes from spreading malaria.

Let’s dive into the good news! 💛
