It’s Been a Truly Insane Year

December 31, 2020 at 9:16 am EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

We’re at the end of a year that brought a presidential impeachment trial, a global pandemic that has killed more than 340,000 Americans, a nationwide social movement for racial justice, the election of a new president and an outgoing president who still refuses to accept the results of that election even though the final tally wasn’t even close.

Political Wire documented all of it — in 14,358 posts, so far — an archive Rick Perlstein said last night “will be a boon to future historians.”

It’s all possible because of our members. If you’re not yet a member, sign up today and you’ll get exclusive analysis, new features and no advertising.

Thank you for reading!

As the New York Times investigation into RealClearPolitics showed, so many popular political websites are not real businesses. They’re political weapons funded by billionaires.

That’s what makes Political Wire different. It’s funded by readers. The only mission is to tell you what’s important in politics.

Your support really matters. Join today as an Annual or Monthly member. Or send someone a Gift Subscription.

Thanks for your support!
