Do charges against Jeffrey Epstein signal 'bigger targets'?
One intriguing aspect of a new criminal case against Jeffrey Epstein is that the matter is assigned to the Public Corruption Unit of the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office.

What Will It Take to Beat Donald Trump?
It’s not what the progressive left is talking about.
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama both campaigned for, and won, the White House on the watchword “hope.” What watchword will it take for a Democrat to win this time?
