Just over a year ago, David Hogg, then the newly-minted vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, found himself unceremoniously pushed out after he called on the party to back primary challengers to unseat members of a moribund establishment.
Now, as progressives notch victory after victory against the party’s conservative old guard and are once again galvanizing young voters thought to have been lost, the 26-year-old reformer says it proves he was right all along.

Yep. Head in the office did an interview with him a while ago (before we knew why Ken Martin didn't want to release the 2024 retrospective), and I remember thinking he just sounded like a guy tired of dealing with obvious bullshit.

You cannot reform the system from within. It is the enemy. It wants you dead or in chains. It does not care for the noises you make or shapes you scrawl.
