A casual survey of the issues dominating the headlines on Monday could lead less plugged-in observers to conclude that the Republican Party commands all the levers of political power in the United States.
The Washington Post’s coverage of the political waterfront includes features on Florida governor Ron DeSantis’s polling woes, former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows’s comments about the January 6 riots, one-time senator Kelly Ayotte’s campaign for New Hampshire governor, and a forecast on the (quite limited) fallout Donald Trump can expect if he is criminally indicted for a third time. To the extent that President Biden’s party is subject to any scrutiny, it focuses on the ways his solicitor general has tried to increase demographic diversity in her office.
