Bipartisan hero of bipartisanship, Chris Coons, struck out again.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday thwarted a bipartisan effort to protect special counsel Robert Mueller's job, saying he will not hold a floor vote on the legislation even if it is approved next week in the Senate Judiciary Committee.

New Castle County Police want $200,000 for a SWAT vehicle because the SUV they had been using was badly damaged in the line of duty.
