We’re back with another episode of CANDID with Deja Foxx! Thank you to Kim Yingling, GG Haegelin, Shirley Cooper, Mackenzie Lucas and so many others for showing up, asking questions and being in this countdown to the midterms with us.
And a special thank you to our guests Gaylynn Burroughs of the National Women’s Law Center, The Copper Courier’s Sahara Sajjadi and COURIER’s national correspondent Camaron Stevenson!
Here’s what we got into today:
Will we ever see all the Epstein files? Cam says yes and he’s not stopping until we do. He broke down the new court ruling that fast-tracks records on Trump, COURIER finding 40% of the released files are duplicates, which Epstein crimes can still be prosecuted (if you follow the money) and the commitments he’s gotten from House Democrats on what they’ll do if they win the majority.
The Cornell 7 is now a national movement. Gaylynn joined us after NWLC projected the names of more than 5,000 people who signed a petition supporting Jane Doe onto a building in DC. She explained what Title IX is, how the Trump administration gutted the offices meant to protect survivors and how survivors can vote safely.

Arizona could decide the House. Sahara took us inside two toss-up races: JoAnna Mendoza’s fight against Juan Ciscomani and the open-seat race in AZ-01, where Jay Feely says we need data centers to “beat China” while Arizonans worry about their water.
Frame Check: Trump’s new 24-year-old assistant press secretary and Steve Hilton’s “lesbian fanfic” campaign ad. We watched it so you don’t have to…
We only have 26 days until Election Day. That’s 26 days to vote for the change you want to see in this country. Make a plan and make your voice heard. And stay tuned for tomorrow’s LIVE episode at 3pm EST where Deja is joined by Astead Herndon, COURIER’s Colin Booth and Aaron Parnas. It’s going to be a stacked show!
