In a world of instant gratification, politics is an outlier. There's no quick fix. A handful of organised street protests and a few progressive candidate wins are but a drop in the ocean of change
Was so happy to read this superb erudite piece of work i have tears in my eyes. Thank you thank you for making it possible for me to understand that it’s not Impossible to change US healthcare system … draining that swamp would require herculean efforts that could take decades. Thank you also for reminding me to feel grateful for our beleaguered NHS
So glad to find out after a tad of research... My $8 transfer from my pension is still coming out to help cover part of your research expenses. I listen intently to each of your posts and am with you 100%. We have a slim chance to wrestle some control back from the Musk, Rump, Ellison, Vought, Miller, Epstein Class Fascists despite their carefully planned project 2025 DogE efforts to destroy Democracy.
Yes, there are about 200 Million Pissed Off People and we should be able to clean these Jackyls Out of Office.
Jon, I want you to know your contribution means the world to me in these difficult times when I know people are finding it difficult as a result of the cruel intent of this regime.
Having said that, please don’t feel obligated to continue if this is putting you under any pressure whatsoever, my work will ALWAYS remain free to ALL. I’ll always find a way to make sure it always remains so.
Excellent piece, once again Martin. I agree that change is possible. But first Americans have to wake up to the fact that for generations they have been gaslit into supporting a predatory, aggressive form of extractive capitalism that will destroy everything they depend upon for their very survival if it is not brought under control. I totally agree with your assertion that this should be done using the tools Trump has provided and with complete ruthlessness. Absolutely no more Truth And Reconciliation crap.
Clear and reasonable ideas on what can be attained; as long as we remain hopeful in what can be done and stay focused on the daily work needed over time. That will mean being there for each other with encouragement and support. Thank you.
I do not take it as “scolding” but as WAKE UP call! Fight 🔥 with 🔥. The un-supreme court has given the president WAY too much power which the founders would find despicable! When they go low, we put a shovel of dirt on them. And toss in the rule of law and jail the scaflawing miscreants🏦

I'd appreciate it if you would stop scolding us. Thanks.
This is great, it helps to see a silver lining, why are there not mor Dems like you?
