1) No Democratic scandal on par with Trump-Epstein, so itβd be biased and unfair to five it much attention.
2) Trump wouldnβt be shamed into resigning and his cult of personality wouldnβt abandon him, so Trump-Epstein wasnβt worth pursuing.
Way too many think thatβs journalism.

I do think yesterdayβs results reinforced the dynamic that while much of the American leadership class is chickenshit, most of the electorate is not

Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.
