In this episode of One Thing Trump Did, we look at the potential movement in Congress on the Epstein files involving the late convicted pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein. President Trump has urged his supporters to move on, but there is growing bipartisan support to release the files to the public. There is a question as to whether Trump and other powerful people might be named in the files. Jeremy is joined by Politico Congress reporter Mia McCarthy. #Epstein #Trump #Congress #House #Senate #EpsteinFiles #MarjorieTaylorGreene #KashPatel

In this special episode of The Middle, we take some time to remember former Illinois Governor Jim Edgar, who passed away last week at the age of 79. Gov.

He was also one of the first panel guests on The Middle. Jeremy is joined by journalist Sean Crawford, Managing Editor of NPR Illinois. #JimEdgar #Illinois #Politics #Moderate #TheMiddle #Republican #Democrat #Bipartisanship
