As we rang in the new year, the Prospect released a new print issue, Democrats and the Government: Together Again. In it, we looked at the new class of 2020, reflecting on the successes and lessons of the Georgia runoffs, examined the subversion of the census, circled back on the climate crisis, looked ahead at where the Democratic Party should go from here with an eye on the mistakes of the Obama administration, and had a meta fake news experience via Mank.

In our live virtual launch event, we invited our writers and contributors to chat more about their pieces from the issue, and also answered some questions from our donors.
