So it runs in the family.

How drunk was she?

[Farmerbob]

Maybe she wasn’t being rude/racist. Perhaps she was just looking for some coke to make the flight more pleasant.

I'm no Christie fan but c'mon...

Are we really responsible for the behavior of our nieces and nephews?

[Nifster]

Charming

Far more, of the don’t-you-know-who-I-am-variety, here...

Sounds like a real peach, that one.

“...after she asked passengers who she thought were Latino if they were ‘smuggling cocaine,’ report says”

But did any of them deny it?

[DainBramage]

New Yawka gonna New Yawk.

[Qiviut]

No, but it says something about the gene pool.

[mewzilla]

When she thinks her uncle is a get-outta-jail-free card, yeah, he bears some responsibility.

For that attitude, anyway. Betcha he’s enabled it.

[real saxophonist]

Shannon Epstein didn’t hang herself.

[blackdog]

She must really need cocaine.

[ronniesgal]

is she juan Epsteins kid?

[FlingWingFlyer]

So, according to the headline, only “Latino” families smuggle cocaine. Nice job by some insider down at the Insider.

[blackdog]

It’s payback for the Covid beach closings (Except for the Chris Christie family.)

[irishjuggler]

Was thinking the same. This likely was less about a drunk belligerent racist and more about a drunk party girl hoping to score some coke.

BTW, “Shannon Epstein”... those Irish-Israeli names always crack me up for some reason. Not sure why, though, as the reverse have always been a thing, e.g., “Malachi O’Malley” etc.

So now it is Chris Christie’s fault that his NIECE is a wacko and gets herself arrested.
Sorry, but I do not buy into that shi er garbage.
His Niece is different from his CHILD.
He did not raise her
He did not instill his morals on her
That is down to her parents.
You know? One of Chris Christie’s siblings.
Kinda like Hunter Biden’s PARENTS.

When she thinks her uncle is a get-outta-jail-free card, yeah, he bears some responsibility.

Indeed, she did play the "Do you know who my uncle is?" card as mentioned further down the article.

I stand corrected.
