Ryan Grim has been showing a bit of a power level lately. I've heard him twice in the past month or so sit across the table from chuds in discussions around US foreign policy and tell them unironically, the worst thing to happen for the world is the collapse of the Soviet Union because it allowed the US to do whatever the hell it wanted and it has all been bad. Not a radical take, but not one I hear from libs.
He's still a Warren Democrat, but he does cover many foreign policy things from a decent angle. I remember him talking about the Ratlines awhile ago for example. Seeing him go to bat so hard for Imran Khan is pretty refreshing, when the Intercept's previous editor was attempting to take it in a "progressive Democrat" direction.
