The most radical socialists in America just told Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez she’s not one of them anymore. The DSA’s Liberation Caucus — a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist faction inside the Democratic Socialists of America — put out a statement this week that reads less like a press release and more like an excommunication. AOC, they said, has engaged in a “continued retreat from socialist politics.” They will not, they wrote, hand her the “presidential standard-bearer” mantle for the movement. The charge sheet: she voted to affirm Israel’s right to exist. She joined House Democrats defending Israel’s right to a defense system, after voting against

The White House and North Korea have not officially confirmed plans. Trump is moving fast to clear the diplomatic runway.

Somebody made up a poll. And a sitting mayor fell for it. Median Strategies, the outfit behind a survey claiming Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass held a nearly 12-point lead over City Councilmember Nithya Raman, came clean this week: it was all fiction. The company announced Monday it’s shutting down its “polling project” entirely, scrubbing every release it ever published. Don’t cite them, don’t trust them — they said so themselves.
