Another “progressive” victory over a longtime Democratic incumbent, but this one is a bit different.

Social media has altered the way writers and readers interact in odd ways.

Florida voters in the Republican and Democratic parties have set up a Gubernatorial race that provides a stark choice on the table for Sunshine State voters in a race that will likely have national implications moving forward.

President Trump reportedly vetoed a plan to issue a statement lauding Senator John McCain after he died on Saturday.

Democrats have pulled the trigger and essentially eliminated the power of superdelegates except in the unlikely event that a nominating convention goes to a second ballot.

Tuesday’s election results were a defeat for the progressive effort to remake the Democratic Party in their image.

California’s Democratic Party endorsed “progressive” upstart Kevin de León over Senator Dianne Feinstein, but this is unlikely to stop Feinstein from winning election to a sixth term in office.

A new poll lends credence to the suggestion that Democrats should be careful about rallying behind the call to “Abolish ICE.”

The calls to “Abolish ICE” are spreading to potential candidates for the 2020 Democratic Presidential nomination.

Joe Crowley, widely considered in line to replace Nancy Pelosi as party leader in the House, has been defeated.

Some activists on the left are calling for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be abolished. While that may be a great sound bite, it doesn’t really accomplish anything.
