We ousted NYC's clown mayor and elected Zohran. Next up: taking the fight to Albany and flipping Congress.

First, "Dem leadership is less popular now" is objectively untrue: within NY-8, Jeffries's approval ratings are sky-high.
More importantly: Nothing you've said refutes the point that DSA has very little presence in NY-8 and has accrued very little political capital of their own to spend there.

Old enough to remember the "steep cost" and "lack of preparation time" for Newsom and CA Dems to launch a Prop 50 campaign
Not to over-meta stuff, but the redistricting fight is a glaring example of how so much Republican strategy revolves around assuming Democrats won’t fight back. They truly didn’t fathom that California and certainly now Virginia will retaliate, and they have realized immediately they are now fucked.

Evergreen: there has never been and never will be a credible Trump/GOP Congress plan to repeal & replace the ACA.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.
