I’m with you, BamaMike!

Bigot much?

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

"Bullies gain power when righteous people yield in the face of their wrongdoing."

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Number two

And completely tone deaf.

"I don't knock my country for what it is - I knock it because I share the dream of so many of us as to what it can be."

1% of the population triggers a spiritual battle?!? You’ve got to be kidding me.

Imagine the outrage from the right if Biden had decided not to send lawfully appropriated funds to red states. There is such a disconnect.

It is mind boggling to me that so many folks don’t acknowledge just how bad life was for people of color a mere 60 years ago. And how little progress has been made in the years since the Act’s passage.

Good morning Mike! Good to see you today.

Shades of “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”

Things to consider:

Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter

Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed

You are a witness.
Expose it.
