Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

I find it highly ironic that the party that bemoaned the deep state and alleged the cover-up of pedophiles is now embroiled in defending the party that has the largest pedophile cover-up in American history.

Listen to this BS from Duffy. (Whose aviation-world experience = zero.)
I know 1000 times as many controllers as he's ever met. OK, maybe only 100 times as many.
This is offensive beyond belief.

The Democrats used to be the party of the working class — the people.
Somewhere along the way, we traded our soul for corporate money.
My new essay, Mamdani, Clinton, and the Democratic Party, looks at how that happened and why new voices like Mamdani give me hope.

In 1992, I sat in a hot tub with Oprah Winfrey and Bella Abzug, trying to sell them on Bill and Hillary Clinton. Back then, it felt like the dawn of something new. But what eventually followed was the slow unraveling of the Democratic Party. Mamdani is a new chance.
