Thanks for everyone who joined yesterday’s live interview with Rep. Ritchie Torres, I thought it was a fascinating discussion.

Torres is young, he’s dynamic, and he has a pretty safe blue seat. He could take the path of least resistance and go along to get along. But he’s also ambitious enough to be thinking about the future and the larger picture and to see that the course Democrats have been on isn’t good enough to reliably contest tough races or to bring growth and opportunity to places like New York. He’s got thoughts on crime, immigration enforcement, Israel, housing, abundance, mass transit and much more.
