This is easy. The media in league with Republicans have successfully spread the narrative that the Democratic Party needs to move Right, that it's out of touch in some cultural way. Ask Dem voters what they really want, for themselves, & fully automated luxury gay space communism sounds kinda nice
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.
"skepticism" is the wrong word folks. "Denialiam" is the word reporters use. Bloomberg has NO idea of whether or not Raymond really believed in global warming. What we know is that he denied it. News outlets should report what they know, not attempt mind reading.
Basically this⬇️ for questions #1 and #3, and for #2, most people want to believe they're ideologically aligned with the party they plan on supporting (and that their views are common sense).
A new poll from the New York Times shows potential Democratic voters want the party to move to the right, are happy with where it is ideologically, and rate socialism highly. Huh?

Lee Raymond, the former head of Exxon who oversaw the biggest corporate merger in the history of the oil industry and was derided as “the Darth Vader of global warming” for his skepticism toward climate change, has died. He was 87.
I wish people would stop trying to make partisan hay about the rise in inflation.

Notably the first time I think I've seen a major presidential candidate (let's not be coy about that) mention expanding the House.
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.
As someone very strongly in favor of taking power *before* commencing the purges (among other things), I found myself nodding very vigorously along with basically all of what she has to say here.

Buttigieg: We sit in a in a country that's got the wrong number of people on the Supreme Court, possibly the wrong number of representatives in the House of Representatives. And by the way, when you consider the disenfranchisement of the people of DC, we have the wrong number of states in the US

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.
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
