AOC is more clear-eyed than any other major figure in the party. Been that way for a while, actually, but it's become just undeniable now.
I don't know about you, but if we ever get another round of elections in this country, I hope I get to vote for a former bartender for president someday.

Putting RFK Jr. in charge of the nation’s public health is a huge mistake.
When dangerous diseases resurface and people can’t access lifesaving vaccines, all Americans will suffer — and RFK Jr.’s family could keep getting richer thanks to his serious conflicts of interest.

Democracy does not die in darkness. It degrades through deal-making — a procession of pragmatic transactions between those who have power and those who want it or fear it (...) Money and media make peace with the regime because to do otherwise is too costly.
