    A group of anti-Trump Republicans said they will campaign for vulnerable Democrats and other centrists in a bid to prevent the Republican Party from seizing back control of Congress in the 2022 midterms.

    In a statement Thursday, the group, known as the Renew America Movement (RAM), said they were fighting to safeguard US democracy and the Constitution from the GOP.

    "There is an urgent effort by Republicans and former Republicans to stem the tide of anti-democratic and lie-based Republican leaders in Congress before it's too late," RAM said in an announcement on Twitter.

    Despite leaving office under a cloud of scandal following the Capitol riot, Trump has maintained his grip over the Republican Party, with many senior members of the party continuing to push his conspiracy theory that the 2020 election was stolen from him by fraud.

    It includes 11 Democrats facing tough battles for re-election, and nine Republicans, including high-profile Republican Trump critic Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, who voted to impeach Trump over his role in the January 6 Capitol riot.

    Between this little nugget, and Donald Trump telling Republicans not to vote in 2022, the midterm elections might be better for the Dem's than many predict. 🙂

    Odd that you would source a VERY LIBERAL NEWS MAGAZINE
    LEFT BIAS---Media Matters

    These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward liberal causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports, and omit information that may damage liberal causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Left Bias sources.

    Overall, we rate the New Republic Left biased based on story selection and editorial positions that frequently favor the left. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing of information and a clean fact check record.

    History

    The New Republic is a liberal American magazine of commentary on politics and the arts published since 1914. Founded by major leaders of the Progressive Movement, it attempted to find a balance between progressivism focused on humanitarianism and moral passion. On the other hand, it sought a basis in the scientific analysis of social issues. According to their about page, “For over 100 years, we have championed progressive ideas and challenged popular opinion. Our vision for today revitalizes our founding mission for our new time. The New Republic promotes novel solutions for today’s most critical issues. We don’t lament intractable problems; our journalism debates complex issues and takes a stance. Our biggest stories are commitments for change.”

    The current editor-in-chief is Win McCormack. You can view their Masthead here.

    Funded by / Ownership

    The New Republic has changed ownership many times during the 2000s, with Win McCormack purchasing the magazine in February 2016. Win McCormack is an Oregon-based publisher and editor-in-chief of the Tin House quarterly and Tin House Books. McCormack is also a political activist who served as Chair of the Oregon Steering Committee for Gary Hart‘s 1984 presidential campaign.

The New Republic earns revenue through advertising and subscriptions.
    Analysis / Bias

    In review, the New Republic produces high-quality, in-depth journalism that leans left in story selection. The New Republic frequently uses loaded emotional headlines such as this: White Nationalism Is an International Threat and this The Profound Emptiness of Beto O’Rourke. The New Republic also frequently publishes negative articles on Donald Trump: How to Piss Off Donald Trump. This article and most others are properly sourced to mostly mainstream left-leaning publications such as The Washington Post, Huff Post, and The Daily Beast.

    Editorially, the New Republic typically endorses Democratic candidates such as Barack Obama. Further, editorials often align with liberal policies such as environmentalism, equal rights, and Universal Healthcare.
