Stephan: Here is some good news, finally. As I look at the trends each day, what I see confirmed again and again is the inferiority of Republican governance.

As officials from around the world met in Brazil for the Cop30 climate summit last month, the US president was nowhere to be found, nor were any members of his cabinet. Instead, the most prominent American voice in Bel\u00e9m was that of the California governor, Gavin Newsom<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
