Pam Bondi accused of cover-up after ex-Prince Andrew arrest on Epstein involvement

Reacting to the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor in the United Kingdom, presumably over his involvement with convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough went on an extended rant aimed at Attorney General Pam Bondi for her inaction after having the Epstein files for months.

With King Charles throwing his support behind British law enforcement after the arrest of his younger brother, co-host Joe Scarborough exclaimed, “I mean, imagine what's in those documents that are being held by Pam Bondi, who wouldn't even turn around and look at the women who said they're victims, wouldn't even look at them? Do we trust Pam Bondi to give Americans information that would be negative to Republicans, to her boss, to other people in the administration?”

Expert reveals the Trump FCC crusader's airtime battles could backfire spectacularly

A media expert revealed on Wednesday that President Donald Trump's leader at the Federal Communications Commission may have created a situation that will backfire spectacularly.

Throughout the second Trump administration, FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr has sought to enforce the agency's equal time rule, which has gotten several left-leaning shows in hot water with the agency. The rule requires radio and television channels to provide equal airtime to political candidates of all views. Most recently, the lawyers at CBS News told late-night comedian Stephen Colbert that he could not interview Democratic Texas state lawmaker James Talarico because it might violate the equal time rule.

'Phenomenal idea!' Jen Psaki giddy as Trump may send 'nightmare' Cabinet on campaign trail

President Donald Trump is reportedly mulling an unconventional new strategy to try to turn around his flagging polls ahead of the midterm elections — and former Joe Biden press secretary turned MS NOW commentator Jen Psaki urged him to go for it.

"I just want to start with something that happened actually last night, because last night, Trump's top political advisers met for a private meeting," said Psaki. "This included his former campaign manager, his pollster, his chief of staff. They all huddled together at the private members-only Capitol Hill Club in D.C. to discuss what they think should be Trump's midterm strategy. And according to the Wall Street Journal's Josh Dawsey, a big part of that crack team's plan is to encourage Trump's Cabinet secretaries to visit competitive districts."
