Bernie Sanders is the new No. 1 in our 2020 Democrat rankings
But as of late, for the first time in more than 1,000 days as an official (and unofficial) candidate, Sanders has climbed to the top of the mountain: He is, as of today, the leader of the Democratic 2020 pack, according to our updated power rankings.
Why? Well, lots of reasons. But here are a few:

The former vice president has encouraged that perception, labeling himself to reporters in early April as an “Obama-Biden Democrat” and suggesting that accounts of the left wing’s ascendancy in the party were greatly exaggerated.

The Trump-Netanyahu Axis Pours High-octane Fuel on the Fire Consuming Democrats’ Support for Israel
Netanyahu’s pandering gestures are pleasing for many Israelis and Trump’s fans in America, but they make Democratic stomachs turn. Most Democrats view Trump as a clear and present danger to America and its democracy — and his supporters as active collaborators. Netanyahu, who turned Israel into Trump’s most enthusiastic cheerleading squad, has cast himself, in the eyes of Democrats, as the devil’s disciple. Sympathy for him and, by extension, for Israel is plummeting.

Trump Vows Stonewall of ‘All’ House Subpoenas, Setting Up Fight Over Powers

Deutsche Bank begins process of providing Trump financial records to New York‘s attorney general

CNN: Deutsche Bank gibt Behörden Finanzunterlagen Trumps
Mehrere Ausschüsse des US-Abgeordnetenhauses verlangen ebenfalls Unterlagen von der Deutschen Bank, die Trump Kredite in Milliardenhöhe gegeben haben soll. Die Staatsanwaltschaft hatte im März um die Herausgabe der Unterlagen gebeten, nachdem ein Zivilverfahren eröffnet worden war.
Trump just declared himself immune to congressional oversight
That’s an outrageous and indefensible position. Congress has a fundamental constitutional role to play overseeing the executive branch; the president cannot simply announce that he will not be overseen, that his administration will not obey legitimate legal orders. He may be right about the political motives of some Democrats, but even so, a blanket declaration of noncompliance is extraordinarily irresponsible.
