After widespread reports of abuse, Pope Leo is on the verge of breaking up the notorious right-wing group.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approve a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

It is now 230 days until the primary and 377 days until the general.
And it’s not like the campaign has already been going for a long time. Platner just announced 293 days before the primary and 440 days before the general election.

look I'm not myself a political scientist so I can't say what effects it would have for a spate of politicians to crop up saying "the enemy is the oligarchy" and "the enemy is billionaires" while swinging a kettlebell but I think we should try it for science and see what happens
