Proud to be interning with an independent, credible magazine that the White House trusts to publish Biden’s essay, yet @TheProspect will always hold political figures accountable for their actions without fear or favor. Read the piece here: prospect.org/economy/2024-12…
I remember participating in my elementary school mock elections. Minnesota has the tools for youth civic participation, and with 2023 legislation, even more young voters can be expected to turn out tomorrow. prospect.org/politics/2024-1…
Great piece by my fellow interns @TheProspect Give it a read!
And @kmoslade and @seanmeifert look at the rural vote in Ohio, and whether Sherrod Brown can get just enough support there to win another term.

From @lydielake: While Kamala Harris’s closing argument speech seemed familiar, “there seemed to be a determination and anger behind her words that has not been evident at her other rallies.” trib.al/i3PxtSR
