I was fortunate to sit next to Bill Moyers at a 1997 League of Conservation Voters dinner in Manhattan. Here is the text of the speech he gave that night. It is my privilege to share it now. 1/2 @hcrichardson.bsky.social @rbreich.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com @chrislhayes.bsky.social

Host: What Trump and the White House are saying is wrong. Prices were 3% higher in September than they were a year before, and the inflation rate has actually increased for 5 consecutive months. Grocery prices are up nearly 30%.

Here's an update on Arcitc sea-ice extent, which is still at a record low for the date, about 180,000 square kilometers below the previous record daily low set just last year.

This isn't going to end well.

He’s a socialist dishing BILLIONS to farmers. He’s wrecked the WH. His tariff war is destroying the US economy. He’s ruined relations with allies. Grocery prices are through the roof. He’s happy to have people tortured in proxy concentration camps in El Salvador.

There is only one path to peace:

Apply devastating sanctions that destroy the war economy of aggressor Russia; impose a total embargo.

Give massive assistance to Ukrainian defenders to secure victory; liberate all occupied land and people.
