Who are the so-called Democratic Socialists of America and their fellow travelers? While it is difficult to generalize, many current and would-be socialist officeholders share several common traits. Most of them represent a relatively small slice of American life. Almost all are urban, with little knowledge of small-town or rural existence. Their world is subways, buses, high-rises, Uber, taxis, and proximity to corporate, academic, and financial institutions—yet often with little understanding of where their food, fuel, water, or everyday goods originate, or where their waste and sewage ultimately go. Their worldview is shaped more by consumption than production, as though goods simply arrive in and depart from cities on autopilot.

If Georgia's 2020 presidential election was clean, a full review should prove it. If something went wrong, America needs to know that, too. The bureau has directed 260 investigative analysts and staff operations specialists from field offices across the country to help review records tied to the 2020 election in Fulton County, Ga. Each is expected to check about 708 records by July 17, and the work has been described inside the FBI as a “priority investigation.” From the Associated Press:
