We're on it, Steve and Ezra. We have formed a local group in response to 1,000,000 rising, and now we have 15 people in our core group, and we will each be bringing 2 more on October 18. Williamsburg VA. The demo here will be several thousand, and we are not a big community. We know the stakes are high, but that's not going to stop us.

Great session. But here is where I'm not willing to give in--it's not about health care subsidies. It's about the Constitution. I feel like the Democrats' position needs to be much stronger than a couple of budgetary red lines. Dare I say, the red line is whether we acknowledge that Donald Trump is an actual president, or we insist that he is an enemy of the Constitution, and must be removed.

That "red line" is rousing rhetoric but what does it mean in practical terms? What does "enemy of the Constitution" mean? It could encompass 2/3 of the Supreme Court and all the big corporations doing their best to undermine it. More important, what happens if/when Trump is removed from office? JD Vance becomes president and all the forces enabling Trump remain in place.

Excellent interview, Steven. I wish I knew how to send this to my sister in TX. She is getting to the point of giving up, if I could send her this video, she might even share it with her friends. I’m 85, so I’m not very knowledgeable technology wise.
