The most radical leftist up for governor could win.

With Mandela Barnes’ unsurprising announcement that he’s joining the race for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, that field appears to be pretty well set.

Mass transportation alternatives offer several good things, from having fewer cars on the road to reduced demand for fossil fuels. But it can’t be forced.

Money wasted on Hop while bus access for people who really need it is at risk.

Can’t have affordability without abundance unless you’re a socialist and repeal the law of supply and demand.

Leading the list is the House speaker emerita, who crossed swords with Trump and bloodied him every time.

The most meaningful thing we can tell young men today isn’t what they shouldn’t be.
