    >In addition to Demsas, who will serve as the publication’s editor-in-chief and CEO, The Argument is launching with a team of well-known political writers and editors: The organization hired Kelsey Piper, a former contributing editor for Vox’s Future Perfect, and Jordan Weissmann, a former political editor at Semafor, as staff writers. It has also brought on Lakshya Jain as director of political data and Kate Crawford as chief of staff.

    >But its other draw will be its extensive network of high-profile contributors.

    >Among the most recognizable names: Substackers Matt Yglesias, Kyla Scanlon, Alice Evans, Joey Politano, and Charlotte Swasey; Abundance co-author Derek Thompson; Atlantic contributor Adam Harris; blogger Matt Bruenig; Heatmap News’ Robinson Meyer; New Yorker contributor Rachael Bedard; Biden administration alumni Mike Konczal and Zach Liscow; the Center for Public Enterprise’s Paul Williams; academics Eric Goldwyn and David Schleicher, economists Adam Ozimek and Maia Mindel; and novelist Adelle Waldman.
