Thank you Gov Pritzker for your courage in standing up for democracy and the U.S. Constitution. I hope your example will encourage other elected leaders and the media to speak out clearly when federal officials actively undermine the rule of law and democracy in America.

I think many people who weren't at the No Kings rallies are also profoundly disturbed by the Trump presidency. If more protests are scheduled, the numbers of participants will probably continue to increase.

Trump never accepts responsibility for his bad acts -- he vigorously blames Biden, woke Libs, judges, etc for any problems he's created. Unfortunately he has a base of supporters who will never acknowledge that he is corrupt, dishonest and incompetent as president.

I hope all the Trump cronies are brought to justice for their crimes. The issues are whether the U.S.A. will still have a functioning legal system after Trump and whether all his criminal henchmen/women will escape justice via pardons.

I hope various organizations are keeping a detailed list of the transgressions being committed by Trump and his sycophants so that repairs to American democracy can start as soon as Trump is gone. In the meantime our best hope is that the judicial system will demand compliance with the Constitution.

James Carville, and other "senior" Democratic strategists, should step aside and empower younger, dynamic people to transform the Democratic Party. Learning to communicate a coherent message at the grass roots level is key. Clearly it's not all about economics. Countervailing Fox News etc is basic.

Thank you for your unwavering commitment to truth and responsible journalism. It will take relentless effort over the next four years to monitor media coverage of Trump et al and flag the most blatant cases of journalistic malpractice. The lack of courage by mainstream media is appalling.
