Filed in National by on March 12, 2021 11 Comments

Coons just managed to get through an entire Morning Joe package without mentioning bipartisanship or attacking liberals.

I was all set to hit send on this dumb little post and Coons mentioned that his efforts to expand national service are bi-partisan.

Schumer […]
