It’s going to be a bit messy at the start, and I appreciate your patience.

What is this not?

Neutral news reporting. I’m a political strategist with a background in commentary. You’re getting my perspective here, which is informed by my professional and personal experiences. I’ll do my best to demonstrate trustworthiness at all times, and I expect my audience to hold me to it. But I bring a strong and unapologetic editorial perspective.

What is the Sosa v. State editorial perspective?

You’re not going to get traditional Democratic (or Republican) party-line opinion. I sit in the left sector with libertarian instincts, and I’ll be talking to voices from across the political spectrum. Some may surprise you.

Why is it called Sosa v. State?

Because New York’s favorite editor-in-chief Jeff Coltin says that “fits” my “vibe.” (Hat tip to Billy Freeland for iterating with me at the start.)
