The Wash Post Editorial Board published one of the most reckless pieces of “journalism” I’ve ever seen, attacking NYC Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani.

Reminding everyone today that USA is still subsidizing the universal healthcare received by every Israeli citizen. While we go without. While we watch our subpar & expensive ACA plans get sabotaged by our own elected Dems. It didn't have to be this way

This is far and away my pettiest Tim Kaine gripe but the Senator’s advance staff always deliver a bottle of Maker’s Mark that is for him only to fundraising events so he doesn’t have to do toasts with the cheap beer and wine the hosts provide and that always really irked me

1. Kaine and Warner operate as a single governing unit due to their relationship;

2. Kaine has hinted he won't run in 2030. Expect a hand-picked replacement (like Rep. McClellan) from the Kaine patronage lineage.

3. Primary Mark Warner. The case against him is book length.
