Good morning

Be forewarned that today’s email is long and filled with WCIDs.

The manchild who “leads” our country said he was glad a real hero was dead. Was there any kind of public uproar from his Republican cult?

He has taken us into an unwinnable war that is not only costing the US in blood and fortune, but is destroying the economies of the world.

He has instructed the Senate and House of Representatives to not work with Democrats to fund the Department of Homeland Security until Democrats agree to pass the most voter suppression legislation since the Jim Crow era.

Ok here are your WCIDs. Call (202-224-3121) or email Moody, Scott and Mast again. We must fill their email boxes and phone recordings with NOs. No more funding for his illegal war. Deal with the Democrats on funding all of DHS except for ICE, until they agree to reforms. By the way, DHS is funded through September and ICE already has a budget larger than all other departments combined. Vote no on the SAVE Act. There is no illegal voting. Speak up about the heroism of Robert Mueller and the despicable remarks made by Trump.

After you have told our members of Congress all of this, do one more thing. Bring at least one new protestor to our NO KINGS 3 protest Saturday.

Kanner & US1 in Stuart from 12-2.

100 N US1 in Ft Pierce (city hall) from 2-4.

Or as my Maine friend Amy McDonald wrote in her blog yesterday, send an email to 10 friends. You can copy and paste this:

Dear friends,

I am writing today to let you know about an important event happening on Saturday everywhere across this country: the No Kings rallies. You know me well enough to know I don’t usually send out messages like this, but this is a critical moment for our country: a chance to join our voices with like-minded people, to show the people in Washington that ordinary Americans won’t tolerate the destruction of our democracy and the brutality of the current administration. If you’ve longed all year for a chance to DO SOMETHING—this is it! Click here for one of the 3,000 in other states. See you on Saturday! And feel free to forward this email to your own friends.

Organizers want 10 million people in the streets this Saturday. We must do more than that!

And finally, from Robert Reich

Sunday thought: America Belongs to US - Robert Reich

Next Saturday, No Kings 3

I told you this would be long. Thanks for all you do.
