I started writing this newsletter on February 6, 2022, and I’ve written more than 260 essays since then. I started out writing about politics every Wednesday; in the summer, I switched to writing about politics on Fridays. For today’s essay, I decided to revisit the 42 political stories I wrote throughout the year. I think it’s an interesting view of what went on politically in 2022.
