Political Wire Wrapped 2025
The Trump era is a like a fire hose
By the numbers, 2025 was relentless.
I published 15,516 posts on Political Wire last year — an average of more than 42 posts a day.
Members — who make this site possible — received 531 exclusive posts, plus 52 podcast episodes, 24 issues of Inside Elections, and 12 editions of Ballot Access News — a steady stream of analysis you won’t find anywhere else.
And then there was the conversation.
Readers left 1,469,071 comments in 2025. That’s over 4,000 comments per day, turning Political Wire into one of the most active political discussion spaces anywhere on the internet.
In short: more news, more insight, more debate — and a community that showed up every day.
