Two of the Democratic Party's marquee 2026 Senate candidates built their campaigns around attacking billionaire political influence, then accepted millions from a mega-donor who visited Jeffrey Epstein's private island. James Talarico, the Democrat running for Senate in Texas, has made the phrase "Epstein class" a centerpiece of his stump speech. "The Epstein Class has no place in Texas," he declared on the campaign trail.

Jon Ossoff has struck the same chord, accusing Republicans of fronting for "the Epstein class, ruling our country." Yet both…Open

In other words, it could make the fake…Open
