Did Idaho Reps Help or Stall the Epstein Files Release? | Ep 99

This week also brought answers about Qatari military training at Mountain Home, a decisive court victory against the Satanic Temple's abortion lawsuit, major developments in Idaho's nuclear energy future with INL leading the nation's reactor expansion, and JFAC finally adopts formal budget rules after years of operating without official procedures.
