    I always considered WaPo fairly left leaning so I’m kind of surprised they were advertising at all on X as of late

      It’s traditionally conservative but more frequently has been endorseing candidates left of center since the right wing is batshit. They overall supported Obama, but frankly Obama is about as centrist as they come. There was a very long stint in the 00s and 10s where they would publish more conservative, hawkish pieces over any news to the contrary.
