I like the idea of having a list of impeachable offenses already committed, maybe a constituental lawyer could assemble this? So many citizens are unaware of basic civics and how our democracy works. This could be a good list to read in Congress. I think the cuts in Medicaid will have a big impact sadly. Other things of concern is the data mining for surveillance and loss of research and our status in the world. What people who are despairing we still have rights and power. Thanks for the talk!

No edit option, I meant for the people who are despairing, we still have many freedoms so now is the time to speak and act while we can.

Exactly she’s delusional in my opinion she and the rest of the Congress!! They took an oath to “Support and Defend the Constitution Against all Enemies Foreign and DOMESTIC “! Do your job Congress!

The entire country must turn away from Trump and his MAGA criminals in such overwhelming numbers that there will be no question, that Americans are truly fed up with the lies, bigotry, grifting, selling of our country, etc.

We must never forget J6! That was when our country crossed the Rubicon in my mind!

This is why Time sucks. A shadow of its past greatness. The following lines in the interview were all patently false. The buyer pays. And this interviewer wimped out. Did not challenge him with a follow up”

“ I took in hundreds of billions of dollars of tariffs from China, and then when COVID came, I couldn't institute the full program, but I took in hundreds of billions, and we had no inflation. 

And three months, we are taking in billions and billions of dollars from other countries that we never took in before. And that's just the start. 

They're coming in because they don't want to pay the tariffs.”

Scott, your newsletter is becoming my "Go To" at the end of my news-reading day. The 'good news' you provide is necessary to balance the 'bad news' I'm inundated with every morning. ❤️ please don't change 🙏

Great hearing from Steve Beschloss! I am so encouraged by the people on the side of democracy. WE HAVE THE BEST PEOPLE! and to quote Charlie Sykes: WE are NOT the crazy ones!

Scott - thank you for what you do and how you do it- I am able to breathe both directions when I read your report. It’s a bright spot in the hot mess express.

Unsolicited advice that is really validation - relax when you speak & blink/ breathe when you hold silent time on camera your voice is valid and the actions along side your daily writing has great value. It matters- so breathe, blink & embrace it.

Don’t give up. Things that get folks to wake up:

Q R Codes posted on places and put on protest signs.

Give people the truth of the utter disrespect, disregard for people they have.

Flip at least 5 Republicans to vote with a moral compass.

Keep each other going. We have a collective national sickness.
