Quick now, before it's too late!
A song recorded and released 3 years ago (by myself, my friend Rick and my bro-in-law Jimi). Seems even more appropriate today.
Give it a listen and share if you agree.

Amid Trump’s cruelty and avarice, it’s time to fight for a new social contract – one that lifts from the bottom of society so that everybody rises."

This is a long clip (19 mins) , but if you get the time, it is well worth it. Chris Murphy is absolutely dialed in to what’s happening and he perfectly articulates what we are bearing witness to in real time.

"One country that did not feature on Donald Trump's list of tariffs on US trade partners was Russia." Trump has a soft spot for Russia. Heap punishment on our allies, and and love on the greatest threat to world peace since Hitler. Wake up folks before it's too late. www.bbc.com/news/article...

From the "Judicial branch: Eliminate barriers to absolute power" chapter of the "Dictatorship for Dummies":
This week, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson floated the idea of hobbling our lower federal courts and hence undermining our delicate system of checks and balances.

With an unmanaged, chaotic group of unqualified, intellectually-challenged narcissists who consider themselves above the law, it certainly comes as no surprise.

Thank you for sharing. What can we do, at a grass roots level, to stop this? What advice would you give?

@raskin.house.gov explains why Republicans are ramping up their attacks on the judicial branch—and what it has to do with Donald Trump's (and Elon Musk's) pursuit of absolute, unchecked power.
