NEW: Mitch McConnell just released a statement that he has been discharged from rehab and is now recovering at home.

It's been almost two months since McConnell was last seen in public. He has refused to speak on camera to confirm his faculties, despite demand from Gov. Beshear.

This is well done.

@MikeNellis She didn't. Politics retired Katie Porter though.

This prescient and devastating quote rings ever more true and damning with each passing day.

[Omar El Akkad @omarelakkad]

One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

@piersmorgan This did not age well.

I'm not running for office. But if I were, these are some of the lessons I'd take away from what happened in NY yesterday.

1. Authenticity is measurable. Voters can smell a focus group from a mile away.

2. Endorsements from the current Democratic leadership now read like warnings. The establishment wing of the party is no longer a sword. It's a question mark.

3. Conviction beats caution. The candidates who said hard things about rent, about who pays for what, about Gaza, they won. The triangulators lost.

4. Cost of living is everything. Everything else is wallpaper.

5. The middle is not a strategy. It's an empty room. Voters reached past the establishment to grab someone who actually believes something.

6. Don't fear the base. Court it. The Democrats who ran from their own voters lost. The ones who ran toward them won.

7. If you want to lead a party you have to be willing to fight inside it. Mamdani didn't ask permission. He took the field.

The lesson under the lessons: the country is tired of being managed. People want to be led.

@Dayyvidd_ Enough blame to go around for the other single Dem candidates for not dropping out when polling shows lack of support.
