Dems should conduct town-halls in red districts in person. Really reach out to these dissatisfied Trump voters.

Republican lawmakers are resorting to virtual town-halls.

Trump's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose:

If we are angry at each other, we won't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Let’s see, Donald Trump launched his crypto business right before taking office. Melania did the day before the inauguration. Junior launched a new one too. Oh, and of course Eric did.

These fascist monsters are committed to the creation of a New Axis of Evil in which Trump and Musk work with Putin, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, Netanyahu, Milei, Modi, MBS, MBZ, Orbán, Erdoğan and other butchers to subjugate the decent folks on Earth

There's little time left for America to save itself

Everyone should start documenting every instance they encounter of local harms. This evidence will come in handy.
Folks are frustrated with Dems in Congress right now.

Here’s my solution - get the hell out of DC and hold some hearings.

I love town halls, but we need to focus on people right now. Have folks come testify about how these cuts are affecting them.

Get local media there.

Make it real.

Pete Hegseth just reportedly ordered the US military’s Cyber Command to “stand down” from all planning against Russia. Analysts have been ordered not to follow or report on Russian threats.

One inside source said, “Putin is on the inside now.”
