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 vocal crowd rose to its feet repeatedly during a one-hour town hall ... [Warren] said, her voice growing hoarse. “We do not want an America that says a handful of rich folks are better than everyone else. We want an America that works for all of us, and we are willing to fight for it.”

Imagine being an Article III judge and you get this email on a Saturday night lol

As Maya Angelou has so eloquently stated: "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time. This is who they are. Believe them.

Dear God. The new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, told Trump: "I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir." This country is sick at its core.

Nice job, maga! Kings Musk & Trump don’t need Telehealth — so they’re taking it away from everyone: all of you who are not as rich, powerful or privileged as Trump & his Tech Bros. Why are Americans struggling to make ends meet be stripped of this invaluable healthcare tool? We have to fight!!!

Republicans in Congress want to cut health care for 80 million Americans to pay for tax giveaways to billionaires and greedy corporations. Don't let them get away with it. Tell Your Representative: Don't Cut My Medicaid!

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

THREE MORE CALLS JUST MADE COME ON LET'S DO IT TOGETHER. Took me all of 5 minutes and I got to voice my frustration out loud

There’s something happening in this country.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

“But the long-term costs will be measured in decades. The degree to which we have failed not merely ourselves but also our children and grandchildren is breathtaking.” www.theverge.com/elon-musk/61...

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

Hidden "dark money" donors try to stop progress against the climate crisis & for voting rights. Fight for "We the People" constitutional amendment. Corporations are not people. Money is not entitled to protected speech. http://dlvr.it/TJ6TX0

Breaking — The Social Security Administration is dissolving its Office of Analytics Review and Oversight effective 2pm today, an agency source tells me.
