Thank you so much: people say "oh, you are so black and white" but there is no "friend across the aisle" -- a vote for a Trump supporter means "x,y,z"

Excellent discussion. I hope some dem communications 'experts' listen to it carefully. Playing pattycake against the bully is not a winning strategy.

This was so great, thanks to both of you for this thoughtful, valuable discussion. I so admire you Stuart for your evolution and you marvelous accounts of it. When you were on the Bush team I thought you were all terrible people, secure as I was in my lifelong self satisfied liberalism. I am still a old (86) New Deal liberal, but I see the value in all people who treasure democracy and enlightened self government. The gang of criminals who are stealing our democracy day by day have actually taught us the value we should always see in one another.

Thank You ,Steven and Thank You Stewart.. I actually subscribe to you both. As you were saying a lot of voices are needed now to get us through. Steven you mentioned an economic boycott ..I have been saying for a while that an economic boycott could be a huge wakeup call for all of the businesses that are doing nothing to stop this nightmare. Of course some poeple will have to work but the ones that could participate would be great . Add to that all of us seniors could stay home ..no shopping in the stores or online . No theater ,movies, concerts, sports events no eating out. I think it would give them pause.

i will be at the rally tomorrow.. I have been at a few others.. Thank You both for doing what you do..lost in america

OPERATION INFLATION distributes free inflatable costumes for community members to wear at ICE protest sites to help deflate (pun intended) the tensions surrounding protests.

We're in this mess because Mitch McConnell didn't have the spine to convict Trump of the charge of inciting an insurrection

Our friend in Miami is getting her sign ready,

She was in Chicago but has gone back to Miami where she works.We asked her where she was and she answered me:

Miami…..Have to work on my sign for NO KINGS protest Saturday…..bad situation in Chicago….on Sunday ICE had their massive armored vehicle blocking the sidewalk to my local Trader Joe’s grocery store…this was around noon on marathon Sunday so was already heavily patrolled ….ridiculous place for “serious crime fighters “ to be positioned….made my blood boil 🤬 but I had appointments so kept my mouth shut….they are thugs ….at least they had pulled back to unblock the sideway by the time I left the store.
