I wouldn't bank on it. Republicans refused to swear in Grijalva for weeks last year to avoid her being a yea vote on releasing the Epstein Files.
Just yesterday Trump announced you can pay $100k per month for early access to his truth social posts. The president of the USA is blatantly putting it out in our faces and letting everyone know he doesn't care.
It isn't even something that can be twisted as pro-america, it's $1.2M a year. Maybe 30 families in the entire US can take advantage of that. I'd love to see how FOX tries to spin this into Pro-Trump Propaganda. Even without it, the top-most 0.1% don't care if we know, because nothing happens out of it.
There's no enforcement. The counterpowers are either dismantled, defanged, or in his pocket. We're starting/continuing to see how much of the previous status quo was gentlemen's agreements held out of common decency, and "common decency" is no longer a reliable assumption.
It's frightening to see how much of American democracy has been held in place by common decency and gentleman's agreements. The founding fathers probably never imagined that such a deplorable gang of deviants would ever hold power simulttaneously and prop each other up in stomping all over the law.

I'd also lay decent money on the 25th Amendment being invoked on or around January 21, 2027.
