@RobBonta: “The demoralization is real, and we need to continue the efforts to reform to make us safer, to make us fairer, to improve our systems."

How did we get here? How did the divide in DC get so bad? “Conservative Republicans see the nation slipping away from their grip,” @BeschlossDC tells @mehdirhasan. “We’re beginning to see that the fading white majority” will lie & claim fraud to hold on to power.

It’s been a long, strange Democratic primary to run New York, the nation’s largest city. And as @MehdiRHasan explains, for no one has it been weirder than for the frontrunner in the race, Eric Adams:
