Wellman: When I served in Iraq.. I heard about how Saddam Hussein divided them. Different sects fought each other. But you know -- Saddam and his family sat laughing at all of them. They divided them against each other and kept their power for 35 years. Does this sound familiar to anybody?

Zelenskyy: "It's not just that the war began somewhere between our countries. The war began when Russia brought this war to our country. They're not right. They didn't respect our territorial integrity. They brought the war to our families. Ukrainians want to hear a position of the US on our side"

This is a perfect way to prepare for whatever the State of the Union brings on Tuesday night — an event with Timothy Snyder about the threats of authoritarianism and what we can do to resist it! If you've read his book, you know this will be good. I signed up, join me! social.redwine.blue/s/bzUNYzz9

The WHITEWASHING of NBC continues....Lester Holt is stepping down as anchor of NBC Nightly News. MSNBC just fired Joy Reid. This is a HORRIBLE look for network. But in Trump's America, this is called bending the knee and kissing the ring of a "king".

I am grateful that so many people found my open letter to Elon Musk moving and want to share it. Some well meaning people are just cutting and pasting it on their social media feeds. I would appreciate it if people would link to the version posted on @democracydocket.com instead. Thanks. Marc

The Trump regime is trying to pressure Zelenskyy to leave Ukraine and force him into exile in France, this is part of an ongoing US / Russia ploy to force a surrender and plunder the country's resources. #StandWithUkraine

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
