Pat Ryan wants a promotion. Can he get one?

Congressman Pat Ryan appears to be making all the right moves for a New York Democrat envisioning statewide office. We unpack his recent track record and potential future with Politico New York reporter Jason Beeferman, who recently profiled the two-term representative. We discuss Ryan's "patriotic populism," the landmines he might encounter on the left, his social media presence, and the political office that might attract his attention in 2028 or beyond.
