Gavin Newsom, the California governor who’s been seemingly anointed to the throne of the Democratic Party, thinks Democrats should be more “culturally normal.” He thinks we should spend less time talking about pronouns. He won’t tax billionaires, and he’s had approximately four different positions on Israel in the last six weeks. Yet two and half years out from the 2028 election, some inside the party are already demanding allegiance to the newest spineless, corporate candidate in a long line of spineless, corporate candidates. This week, Emma Vigeland, Kat Blaque and I air our grievances with a man who believes in nothing, and a party that touts democracy while practicing nothing of the sort. We all deserve better.
