They announced a campaign reporter and a beat writer for the upcoming candidacy for Governor DeSantis of Florida.

Tweets also discuss Biden's strategy to energize the far left base by going off on "MAGA" Republicans. There are celebrations of replacing Confederate historical figures with more appropriate figures who were recognized for their contributions to the country.

| 1639227681891057665 | Ok, good luck, but the biggest problem with @nytpolitics is that it covers the issues as if they were sporting events, rather than, you know, life and death, democracy, fascism, that kind of thing. So time to switch gears. https://t.co/xb385MHRpR | 3 |

| 1639797229077635075 | @68dart @nytpolitics The history isn't erased, dear. It's rightfully, at long last, being properly put in place. If you have a problem honoring Native Americans, then you have a problem being American. | 42 |
| 1640059057020219392 | @68dart @nytpolitics Yep. Our bases should not bear the names of traitors to The United States, and who were people who thought they had a right to own other people. Pretty simple to understand. | 39 |
