## Resource

On Thursday, May 21, the Democratic National Committee (DNC)  released  a report examining the party’s performance in the 2024 elections. The 192-page postmortem argued that Democrats must “organize everywhere to Win Anywhere” and particularly advocated for a “renewed focus on the voters of Middle America and the South.” However, the organization distanced itself from the document’s findings. In a Substack post accompanying the report’s release, DNC Chair Ken Martin  said , “I don’t endorse what’s in this report, or what’s left out of it.” Announcing our fourth guest for West Virginia! We’re excited to announce that Free Press columnist Kat Rosenfield will join our on-stage lineup at Tangle’s  next in-person event  in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, on June 14. Kat will share the stage with Tangle Executive Editor Isaac Saul, Editor-at-Large Kmele Foster, and Longview Editor Andy Mills for a conversation about artificial intelligence and national politics. We’re excited to bring the Tangle community together for the latest installment of our live event series, and we’d love to see you there. Tickets are moving fast, and  you can get yours here ! Our latest episode of Suspension of the Rules. After some discussion of aliens last week, Isaac, Ari, and Kmele move on to the next big thing: athletes using steroids! After some discussion of cheating in sports, they dive deep into the electoral ramifications of Tuesday’s primary runoffs. Plus, Isaac addresses some criticisms, the guys speculate on Rep. Thomas Kean’s (R-NJ) absence, and Kmele tries to defend the indefensible. Watch the most recent episode  here ! Ad-free podcasts are here!
