I was on your Founders’ call yesterday and want to express my appreciation for all you and your managing editor are doing. The letter has become a soothing, meditative ritual for me.
You mentioned expanding the Supreme Court yesterday and also you are watching Justice Thomas. Would you mind explaining once again exactly what is Thomas’ purpose and focus regarding Roe v Wade in a letter. MNy would be interested in this.
Your newsletter has held me up during these times and spurred me on to participate in good organizations to encourage voters. Thank you and your managing editor for the realistic hope you provide.
My brother-in-law in Colorado dubbed the party of Trump the GQP several months ago. I thought it was a bit unkind as we know many reasonable, community-minded Republicans. But it looks more and more like it is an accurate change to reflect the direction. You continue to be, along with Heather Cox-Richardson, my first reads in the morning........thank you.
Thank you Robert and Jill, so much, for your tireless dedication in producing the newsletter, and for arranging the call yesterday. I'm honored to be a Founding member. In reading the second paragraph in this edition, I couldn't help but imagine how our democracy would look if the word "vote" replaced the word "vaccine". 70% voting rate, free childcare, free transportation, 24 hour voting sites, thousands of volunteers knocking on doors... maybe a pipe dream today, but definitely something to work towards. Congratulations on inspiring 40,000+ people to get involved!
As I keep saying, the Republican Party is a zombie. Like a zombie, it is dangerous. Like a zombie it lumbers around. Like a zombie it makes sounds that resemble human speech. But it is dead.
On a more practical level, every day the Republican Party loses support. Every day.
