Democrats have lost the words that describe the moral core of their party. Talarico may help them find them.
I went long on James Talarico's Christian populism:

Can you think of any previous president with whom the verb “threaten” is routinely associated?

Said one of Trump’s crypto investors: “political figures solicit money in exchange for access all the time”.
Since when does such “access” money go into the politician’s own pocket?
Meet ‘Ice,’ ‘Ogle’ and other crypto millionaires who bought a night with Trump

Took my first ride in @waymo.bsky.social .Was going a short distance—about 5 min away. Car headed in the right direction, then turned into a parking lot, drove around, came out and dropped me on the onramp to a busy street. I got out and walked the rest of the way. Do they often get lost?

Dear #journalists: Where is JD Vance? What’s he doing? Where is he weighing in? What will his special assignment be (VP’s always have one—often something the President doesn’t want to do)?
