In advancing right-wing border policy, Biden appeals to popular will. But polls also show overwhelming support for universal pre-K, Medicare for All and a permanent ceasefire. Why isn’t Biden running on these incredibly popular policies? inthesetimes.com/article/bide...

In his right-wing turn on border policy, the Biden administration has invoked the widespread popularity of increased enforcement. Why, then, isn’t he running on universal pre-K, Medicare for All and a permanent ceasefire—policies voters support in droves? inthesetimes.com/article/bide...
