Did you know we voted to raise taxes on Tuesday - our number one issue

Politico headline - Hiking taxes, protecting abortion, other issues voters green lighted in midterms. You have to read half the article before you find one sentence that mentions that Mass voted to raise state taxes on million plus incomes. I wonder why Politco would highlight this insignificant side issue as our number one accomplishment. Oh - and it is right below the article on the Warnock-Walker runoff. Isn’t Politico usually more subtle about showing it’s bias? Maybe the Georgia election is too important to bother with subtlety.

Some of the stuff it puts out is flat out right wing. Just my impression.
