Your articles are clear predictions of future events. They will never back down on their mandates. The one thing not accounted for in project 2025 was the pushback and fight of the American people. We can change the outcome but it will take all Americans both blue and red to join together and resist.
I'm so excited for your planned expansion! Thank you for the work you do and have done to help save democracy in a country you don't even live in. You are sharp, and you offer empowering, although personally challenging, paths ahead. We as a nation aren't going to survive this if we stay comfortably numb. So grateful for you!
I immediately thought of you when I heard Hakeem Jeffries say that the democrats were "back." I believe as you do that they're not back. They got lucky. Can they build on that, heck yeah. So, not only do they need to get the messaging right and have the policy to back it up, they need to craft the messaging in a way that will peel away the loose layers of MAGA. For those who can get out, dems need to find an off-ramp they can point to and make sure the signage is in large print and small words and leaves their dignity intact. There are hard-cores that will never leave, they'll die MAGA. But I believe there are many more that were looking for a voice, and someone to blame for not having had one for so long. tRump gave them that. Dems need to show that they can hear it too. Once MAGA is down to the absolute base, then accountability. But first/concurrently, we have to rebuild. I hope we can keep the best parts of our constitution, but fix the things that they have broken, and the things that have almost broken us. ✊️🙂🇺🇸
Martin, were you able to connect w/ Indivisible leadership, and if so, are you at liberty to comment on it? Peacefully and creatively pushing back on all fronts is emerging throughout America!! The election results demonstrate that Americans are finally waking!!
I reached out, but got no response, which is disappointing to be honest, but I remain convinced there’s not enough courage out there to step outside the box.
Pressure has to be applied to the Justices of the 9th Circuit and the rest of the puppeteers that are pulling the strings of the biggest suppression of Democracy ever. We have to protest their front doorstep and apply relentless pressure to expose and bring them to the spotlight.
I’m looking for some young congressperson to step up and say what needs saying. And be a seed crystal in a supersaturated solution. Jasmines sounding good.
DNC should advertise the lie about affordability coming out of mouth of 45. Those Walmart baskets he talked about have fewer items and instead of brand named items they have store brand. What a great visual on tv ad
Thanks for bringing this perspective of our current situation. It actually inspires me to look forward to everything I can do to reject and overcome. Iam a retired fixed income person who does not have much money to put towards this effort. I do have voice and ability to put in the work. Lets go people!
I am excited you have a plan in the works ☺️ But and I am sorry for that But. This whole year has been a nightmare that keeps coming and getting worse by the day 😭 I so want to Believe we can get the American public to stand up! Just show me HOW! This is not going to be EASY!!!!!!!
I hear you Clara. As I have said many times, there is no quick fix for this problem. Elections this week prove there is appetite for change so we have to build on that.
There will not be elections unless we the American people step up to the plate. Trump lies about everything...except what he's going to do. He's "jokingly" talked about elections, about there not being elections in the future, about his plans to "run again." To misquote Maya Angelou deliberately: when evil people tell you what they intend to do, believe them.
I don’t plan to vote for any centrist Democrat going forward. I will vote for more ZOHRAN MAMDANI folks. Frankly, anyone who takes contributions from AIPAK has to go, which is over 95% of Congress. Once this administration is gone, we as a country need to stop sending ANY MONEY to Isreal. The sooner, the better.
America is great because it is for justice, democracy, rule of law, science and reason. This period of revision is led by persons seeking absolute power- this in my opinion is a perverse aberration. In my travels and my family I know that community, intellectual honesty, humanism and caring are the important traits in social relations and governance.
Thanks for describing recent events that have brought out these best American traits and reaction to an absolutist administration. Resist and keep the faith.
The Trump base is made up of not only very dangerous and disalushined lie believeing crazy people but wealthy ones! Now the assault on elections starts, which will further their doubt. I Am More than a little frightened 😔

Thank you Manda, it’s great to have you with me on this journey

What inspires me so much are people like you who understand the important angles we have to keep an eye on.
In the final piece I might really challenge your thinking, indeed I may be so far outside the box you think I’ve lost my mind 🤣
I'll won't think you've lost your mind. I might question my own status. 😁 But I'm looking forward to it. Don't forget to take care of you.

I march on regardless Kathleen.
As they say, ‘play your game’! As far as I am concerned, your assessments and strategies are right on target. You know who you are…go w/it and be you!
My best to you and your team as you expand & grow!!!!!
P.S. one more thing, when the love of your life tells you it’s time to, ‘chillax’, please listen to her!😎

I agree Robert.

James Talarico, Rep. from Texas, is someone to watch!

Believe me Ralph your voice is far more important than money. This is about leaving it all out on the field my friend.
I'm worried about the "poison pills" that the R. will leave when ousted. I agree with everything you have said.
I understand your concern

I’ll second that thought Mary
