CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Exclusive: Navy secretary John Phelan listed as passenger on Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane in 2006
The manifest lists Phelan alongside 12 other passengers including Epstein and apparently Jean-Luc Brunel, a French modeling agent and close associate of Epstein who was facing charges of sexual assault and rape of a minor when he was found dead in his prison cell in 2022. Brunel’s name appears to have been misspelled as “Jean Luk Brunnel” on the manifest.Six names on the list are redacted. The flight left London traveling to New York on the afternoon of March 3, 2006.
A close friend of Phelan’s confirmed that Phelan was on board the flight, but emphasized it was the only time Phelan interacted with Epstein and that he was invited to fly by Bear Stearns CEO Jimmy Cayne, who died in 2021.

from the link:
Phelan, who was working in the financial sector at the time, did not know they’d be riding on Epstein’s plane until they arrived, Phelan’s friend told CNN. During the flight, Epstein pitched the other financiers on a tax concept that Phelan “had no interest in,” the friend said, and Phelan never spoke or interacted with Epstein again.
