The Free Beacon was denied press credentials to a two-day political summit in Denver, organized by the independent group Majority Democrats, featuring potential 2028 presidential candidates like Pete Buttigieg, Raphael Warnock, and Ro Khanna. The event, titled "What's Next," aimed to discuss the Democratic Party's future direction after sweeping midterm victories that handed them control of the House. However, the conference revealed internal tensions within the party over how to address cost-cutting and the role of President Trump in legislative efforts. Notably, Texas Sen.-elect James Talarico emphasized the need for immediate results, urging Democrats to make Trump's last two years in office the most productive presidency in American history.
