Great piece, though I think Dems making pure partisan hay on inflation is preferable to short-term policy-ish reactions of the "we must do something, this is something..." variety that are thankless, stupid, and/or crowd out efforts to solve the more structural problems that Max rightly highlights.
We have no idea just how far behind the United States will be in 2028. We'll have nothing: no national science infrastructure, no agricultural progress, no medical progress.
The oligarch class has decided to hollow America out in a hedge fund takeover. We are being robbed of our future.
As you read about this abusive raid, remember that Georgia found that Elon Musk violated the rules on his mail-in ballot campaign in 2024 but the FBI has not raided him.

Notably the first time I think I've seen a major presidential candidate (let's not be coy about that) mention expanding the House.
Most of the stories about Jay Clayton neglect to note that while he is regarded as a more serious person than Bill Pulte, like Pulte he also has ZERO intelligence or national security experience, which you'd think would be something relevant to mention
